In the light

We experience the worst wind storm that has ever been experienced in Middle TN on Friday, March 3rd. Our area was without power for over a day due to shear winds that ripped out power poles and pulled trees down on lines. We had just completed having an auxillary breaker box wired into our home. I should mention that we are also a small farm that raises waterfowl and we had several incubators running during this time. It was so easy to push the smart button and continue to have power in our home during the outage. The unit is a dual fuel and runs very efficiently on LP. We are extremely happy with this and know have the peace of mind to know that we will never lose a batch of ducklings again due to a lack of power on our farm! Thank you Westinghouse.

Powerful/East Setup

Bought this a month ago due to the "Power Safety Power Shutoffs". I'm in the Tehachapi Mts at 5000 ft. If you live in high elevation I would suggest ordering the high altitude kits as every 1000' in elevation yo will notice a decrease in fuel efficiency. Remote start works perfect. Easy assembly. Ran 10 hours on 2 gallons of gasoline. Ran a refrigerator, freezer whole house LED lights and AC with no problems. Had an electrician install a interlock to connect to panel. 2500 sq ft home.

Great Value

Mostly assembled - easy to unpack and set up without assistance. Included all accessories to get it running, including tools, battery charger, oil and a funnel. Dual fuel feature is very helpful in providing an alternative fuel source. Electric start, including remote, makes starting the generator very easy. Panel is easy to read. Seems extremely well made.

Easy assembly, easy start

We are totally solar-“off grid”. After several stormy or overcast days we need to go to the generator. Our last generator was the best one from the tool store known for cheap tools. It lasted a couple of years and died when we needed it the most. I took more time researching this purchase. I like that it is dual fuel. I ran a line from my large propane tank so I don't have to have cans of gasoline around. It took 5 minutes from the box to ready to start. It has plenty of power to run our home, barn, water pump, etc., it is half as loud as the previous one, and with the “fob” starter, my wife can start it without having to pull a chord!

Everything I needed for a home generator!

I bought this generator to power my home in the event of a power outage. With 9500 running watts on gas and 8500 running watts on propane it will give me some flexibility in case I run out of gas. I intend to use the generator to power my circuit breaker panels directly using an interlock system so I can have the option to power anything in the house. So far, I have only run the generator for 15 to 20 minutes for initial start up out of the box, and have only tested it on a few household items. Only put about 1500-2000 Watts of load on it so far for the test, but it ran and provided power with no issues. I tested most of the features: push button start, remote start, and switched between gas and and propane. Everything worked without issue. One thing to note on initial startup was using the push button start will automatically start the generator, but it may take a few attempts. I had to push the button twice before it started. This was most likely just due to gas having to go through the fuel lines to the carburetor for the first time. Every time after initial startup, it would start right up with no issues. The generator also comes with a charger for the battery which plugs directly into the front of the generator. This is a great feature especially if the generator is sitting for a while in the cold. Being able to put the battery on a trickle charge will ensure it will start up when you need it. Unfortunately, I was unable to connect the generator to my house and test it yet since I still need to alter my electrical panel to make this happen. So far this generator meets my needs and I recommend it for anyone looking for emergency home power.

More than I expected

Just got this. Nice packing. Many more features than I expected for the price. Great instructions. Easy to set up. Hooked to LP tank and fired right up. Really low running sound compared to my old smaller gas one. Easy and light to move with the large wheels and padded handle. Now I cant wait for a power failure.

Looks like a GREAT generator

received a week earlier than initially projected. Packaged really well,all items intact, even includes a wrench for assembly, spark plug wrench, oil, and a funnel for the oil! Started right up, i used propane to test it out. I think this is a very good purchase with the tri fuel capability and all.

transfer switch ready

Bought this on 8/19/21 .Out of the box just had to install wheels and add oil. About 15 minutes. Charged the battery up for about an hour. Added some gas and pushed the start button and started right up and ran smooth. I bought this one to work with a manual transfer switch. Will add another review when I lose power and put it to the test. I believe this is just what I need.

Westinghouse 9500 generator

I bought this generator because I live in an area that has regular hurricane concerns. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, I was told I'd get a free cover if I left a review so I am. I will update the review as soon as I get to use the unit. It came in great condition with the hook up for propane and oil for the engine as well as wheels to transport it. I like that it comes with electric and remote start. The machine did have many glowing reviews already so hopefully I'll give it another.
