I own a smaller Westinghouse generator which we use at the deer camp. I was so pleased with its performance and ease of use, a larger Westinghouse generator for whole house backup seemed an obvious choice. The WGen9500DF, in addition to the convenient dual fuel capability, also supports the Westinghouse Smart Switch. Automatically starting the generator and transferring critical loads to backup power, gives me peace of mind that my home will be well taken care of when I am away on business. Anyone in the market for an emergency generator could not go wrong by purchasing any of Westinghouse' fine products. I look forward to many years of trouble-free operation.

Easy to operate. One problem I had was putting one of the wheels on the frame. The bearing hub wasn't inserted properly so the thick spacing washer covered the hole for the retaining pin. Fortunately o had a thinner washer on hand and was able to complete the assembly. The other problem is it won't run on gas. Propane runs fine. It may be bad gas or a problem in the carberator. Probably the gas. Will troubleshoot!

During the winter freeze in Houston, my pull start generator would not start. Never want to get caught cold again...this one is the complete package with power, duel fuel (runs on gas or propane) and electric start. I have not used it yet but I feel comfortable this generator will get the job done.

While I haven't had this for very long, it has been great. Used to power a refrigerator. When fridge comes on, generator hardly notices. A little louder than I thought, but that's okay. Plenty of outlets, transfer switch ready. In doing research on generators, this brand came up often. I do think it will give me years of service.

I bought this generator to power (most of) my house in the event of a prolonged power outage. I am still getting my house set up for this (added transfer switch, still have to extend the gas line) but I'm excited to test it! It is solid, well packed, and the manual is very clear,

I've only run it for a couple hours so far, but as I inspected the unit during assembly, it is well built, and uses very good materials. The quick start documentation was excellent and easy to follow. The unit runs smooth and quiet. Only one minor detail was missing from the quick start: you do need to turn on the fuel shut-off valve that sits just under the gas tank.

After a major storm this past summer which left us without power for almost a week it was time to get a back up generator. I spent months researching the various generators and came to the conclusion that the Westinghouse Wgen9500DF is what I was getting. The remote start is an awesome feature so I can simply shut down the generator at night without having to go outside and start it in the morning. Also the duel fuel was a major want for me as well, without wanting to worry about having enough gasoline on hand as we live far in the country, I simply installed a tap on my house propane tank and run the generator off of that. For a generator that can run the essentials of the house, sump pump, furnace, water heater, well pump, lights etc. I couldn't be happier with this product, plus I have the option to take this generator wherever I choose and use it unlike a whole home generator that is stuck along side your house for as often as you need it, you may as well have it be portable.

Very versatile with multiple receptacles and dual fuel. Love the multiple starting options (remote, push-button, recoil). Had to use recoil start for first gasoline start but after that it started easily for all methods. Purchased primarily for use as backup in case of power outage, but everything tested has worked just fine.

I bought this a month ago, approximately used it for a few days for the first two weeks. I had it and then went out there to crank it and it won't start. Can't get it to do. Nothing was running fine when I shut it off the day before. Not happy at the moment

I bought the Westinghouse WGen 9500 generator just a month ago. I was very impressed with all that this generator features. The WGen 9500 was easy to start with the push of a button, and has a fuel gauge that is easy to read. The WGen runs a little noisy but can be tolerated. The only problem was when assembling the legs to the main frame there were already welded nuts to the frame that wasn't lined up right with the holes and it became very difficult to get the bolts in, but worked until I got the bolts to fit right. So, this issue could be looked into from westinghouse company. I am extremely excited to use this generator which offers a lot of options for projects and when power outages occur. Thanks westinghouse. I recommend the WGen9500DF generator.
