I researched at least 10 different manufacturers of generators prior to purchasing the WGen9500DF. The Westinghouse had everything I wanted plus .........the option for the ST automatic transfer switch. Great Price, Great Value, Great Product Geo

I bought his a few weeks ago and have only ran it once to test it out but everything worked like it should and is built well. It has tons of features I love like the duel fuel option, electric start and display for wattage usage, etc. I recommended this generator to several friends and family.

Replacing a different brand pull start generator. wanted an electric start model, but they were too expensive at the time. I think this will work nicely with the amount of power it has to run more appliances in case of power outage. I live near the east coast, so we do get hurricanes quite a bit. Gives us a better level of readiness that we can keep fridge/freezer and other electrical items running.

We bought this to be sure we had power for the essentials after the Texas grid issues last year. One broken outdoor faucet replacement cost 25% of the cost of this generator. We are so pleased with the performance. And so many extra features. We love the Dual Fuel option.

The generator is solid. It is a little noisy but that was exacerbated by the rain. Pros: The remote starting is a nice touch for the cold mornings. Cons: Remote start attempts is a start cycle that attempts to start 3 times while it auto adjusts the choke for gas operation. The propane start is a cleaner quicker start. It takes a little getting used to. The pull start is a little awkward to pull but it is hopeful you never have to practice that.

Just purchased. Easy to assemble, excellent instructions. Like others have noted the 1 quart of oil provided is not enough to fill the crankcase. Started right up on propane with first push of the start button, battery came charged. Unit is heavy but easy to maneuver with the large wheels. Everything you need is included such as a tool kit and funnel. Quieter than I expected. Comes with remote start/stop and was amazed that the generator started from the furthest room inside my house.

Hi, I bought this 1 month ago for my elderly parents and had a 50 amp and interlock with NG set up done on their house and it started up without any issues. I can even lift it using the handle with 1 hand. I was surprised at how much the handle helped distribute the weight.

The machine arrived in a very beaten-up box (probably outside the control of tthe manufacturer) but seemed to be undamaged. However, the inside of the box was saturated with crankcase oil., requiring a lot of cleanup before assembly of the wheels and testing. I found the manual to be rather poorly organized, although complete enough. A table of specifications would be nice---the crankcase capacity is mentioned only as an aside to the oil change procedure on page 23, although filling with the (included) oil should be one of the very first steps. And the crankcase calls for 1.2 quarts of oil, so the oil it was shipped with was not enough for a first fill! This is not the machine for someone innocent of engine maintenance!

I purchased this generator only a few weeks ago and have not connected it to the house yet for service during an outage. If I need to amend my rating after doing so, stay tuned. Having said that, I am impressed by its overall build quality and ease of operation, which surpass my expectations. Assembly was straightforward, but a second person would be helpful due to the weight. It has easily powered outdoor tools as a test. Out-of-the-box, the unit would not start on multiple attempts (on gasoline fuel; didn't try propane). Following the experience of another owner on-line, I removed the spark plug and primed the cylinder with fuel. After that, the generator started right up and has continued to start quickly and easily with the start button or remote fob. That's good news, since the recoil pull is quite difficult. It is loud and heavy, but no more than expected. I now feel equipped to handle any future power service interruptions!

Just got it today and I had to try it out already . I love the electric start and the remote start the most . It's enough to run my wall mounted A/C unit and everything I might need in a power outage . I've been needing a new generator for a while and I am very happy to have this one .
