I bought this to have just in case after experiencing 11 days without power after hurricane Helene. Setup was rather straight-forward, and it test-ran on propane just fine. I don't plan to hook it into my house, so I bought adapters to run regular outlets for the 240 connectors. It should keep my backup heaters and fridge running continuously if needed, with a few lights and phone/laptop chargers too.

Just got it and it looks great! Easy assembly and seems to be very well made. Westinghouse is a quality name and I felt good buying this brand over others. I intend to use it with a transfer switch as backup power in the event we lose power. Seems like an ideal setup and should work great!

I have just received this generator and have only operated it for a 60 minute break-in. It fired up right out of the box, no hesitation at all using propane. First off I would like to point out the quality that is built into this machine. The electric start is a great feature, and also including this really cool long distance key-chain remote to start and stop it from over 100 yards away. No need to weather the storm to stop or start your generator. Another great feature is the dual-fuel ability. this allows you to switch between gas or propane without even turning off the generator. no more temporary blackouts while you change the type of fuel. Includes everything you will need to start it up, (Minus you fuel choice) including a wrench, spark-plug tool, funnel, pouch, propane hose and regulator assembly and even the 1-quart 1-ounce bottle of oil. When this item arrived and was opened every thing was in perfect condition. The packaging was superior in protecting the unit. Assembly was amazingly simple and well thought-out. One of the first indicators of this machines quality is when you first lift the transporting handle to move it. It is a beefy handle with foam wrapping for comfort. The very well designed balance of this generator makes it effortless to more about. My wife can move it with little effort. The tires are large and the lift handle is strong, hefty and secure. O yeah.... the units resting feet have suction cups built-in to prevent the generator from creeping around while running on a smooth surface. I can not wait to put the this machine to work.... To the Manufactures,Builders, Packers and Shippers....Well done....ô¿ô

I recently paired the Westinghouse 9500 with an interlock system for seamless power transitions during outages, and I couldn't be happier with the setup. The generator is incredibly easy to use and set up, even for someone without much experience. The remote start is a standout feature for those with a bad back like me. As far as capacity goes, I am able to support my base load, my 3.5 ton downstairs A/C unit along with 2-4 major appliances without the need of a soft-start on the A/C unit. One thing to note: it's heavy. Moving it can be tricky if you're not prepared. Take it from me—fully extend the handle before trying to move it. Trust me, it makes a world of difference (learned that the hard way, lol). Overall, it's a solid, dependable generator that performs exactly as advertised. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a powerful and user-friendly portable generator!

Purchased this unit for an upgrade from my other lower wattage Tri-Fuel generator. Easy to setup and off and running in no time. Just fill the engine with the Quart of Oil connect the battery and screw on a BBQ Propane Bottle. Turn the unit on and put the Fuel selector switch to the fuel source. Press the Start Button on the unit and after a couple of cranks it is off and going. Use the Remote Key FAB to remotely Stop and Start the unit. Can't be simpler. A+++

Like many people that experienced recent hurricanes, I decided I needed to have adequate optional power sources. I had smaller gas generators, but had to keep moving the unit to power some portion of the critical need items. I decided I needed a larger unit to meet all, or most of, the needs with one unit. This unit also allows for gas, propane and natural gas fuels which is helpful as sustained power outages sometimes make it difficult to get gasoline. I test ran the unit for a short period and was pleased with the operation.

I bought this back in November 2024 and have used it a couple of times on propane. It starts right up and doesn't miss a best. The remote start is a game changer over my previous generators with the pull rope option only. I would definitely buy this again.

I bought this for a partial house backup. It was easy to set up and was easy to use. Everything to get started was included except gas (including a quart of oil). Remote start worked fine, had it up and running in about 10 minutes. No I just need to get a transfer switch kit.

I just purchased this generator and was impressed with it's solid construction and aesthetics right out of the box.  Westinghouse is rated as a top tier generator and has solid legacy reputation as a quality product.  Even though it weighs 250 lbs, the front folding handle enables easy transport.  Generator is transfer switch ready, control panel is methodically arranged.  Setup was quick, just 2 wheels and front support legs.  It truly is an impressive machine, can't wait to fire it up.  Tent running cover allows easy access to controls and refueling options.  Will provide future reviews regarding noise level and running efficiency.  Very happy with my purchase.  Service center stated that other comparible generators cannot run 12 hrs straight without overheating  this however is not an issue with this generator. 

I bought this to use around my place when the electricity goes off. It will run all of the necessary things I need in my house and three chest freezers in my cellar. I really like the battery charger that comes with it. It has never failed to start when I need it, runs just like a new one all the time. The 6.6 gallon gas tank is handy too. Not sure on the hours it will run, but I haven't run it out yet. I am really impressed with this generator and the price was great too.
