I purchased this generator as a back-up power source in the case that my home loses service. I had a transfer switch installed, and this unit will power my home as needed. The 9500DF runs longer on a fuel load than comparable models, and the ability to easily switch to propane as another fuel is great. My first experience with electric start and automatic choke, both work flawlessly.

I really wanted the natural gas option. I have been hit by multiple hurricanes including Katrina (no power for 6 weeks). Finding gas after a hurricane is a nightmare but I always had natural gas. Now I won't have to worry about stock piling or trying to find gas for the next hurricane.

I'm an engineer and researched diligently before deciding on this monster of a generator! It's everything you could want or need for backup power. Impressively built for many years of use and very easy to service. Westinghouse is a great name for quality, I know because I worked for years for their competitor (which I'll refrain from naming). I have not found anything negative to mention about this generator. It's a well thought out build. Even the balance of the machine when moving it is impressive. Although it weighs over two hundred pounds, my petite wife can wheel it around with ease. Awesome power in a small package!

The instructions were clear, and it started easily with the electric battery start. We used the gasoline for testing when connected to house loads through the 50-amp connection. For propane we hooked an extension line from a house-supply tank to the convenient flare connection on the generator. It also ran well with propane.

In Texas the power grid is not always reliable. We sometimes have sudden blackouts that last for hours. In the 2021 Snowmeggedon we were without power for five days. My new Westinghouse generator provides me with secure power now. We're on a well and my biggest concern was to be without water during an extended outage. No more. Now I can count on my generator. The generator is easy and intuitive to operate. It has the output we need for the well and other home systems if needed. The controls are easy to understand. I love my new generator!

I just got this generator today. I read all instructions and assembled in about 30-45 minutes. As heavy as it was, it was a little difficult to assemble by myself, 1 hand lifting and 1 hand putting pieces on. After assembly, put in oil, plugged in battery, hooked up propane and it fired right up. I charged a couple of batteries for about 20 minutes, then packed it up and stored it until needed. So far so good!

Totally impressed with this product from the moment I opened the shipping container. Everything needed to operate the unit was there-- except the gas. LOL. you even provide the wrench to assemble the mounting feet-- took all of 15 minutes for the wheels and feet. The generator itself is extremely well constructed with no thin metal parts that would tend to rattle around during operation. I would say that I got the most " bang for my bucks" with this purchase.

I bought this generator to use as a backup power supply for our house. Gasoline or LPG, easy to move and connect, electric or pull cord start (with a remote start clicker!), and plenty of capacity. I've used several different generators on construction sites and for power outages, and this one has the best combination of features of all the ones I've worked with.

I started to buy this generator in September. Had to wait until Oct. was worth the wait. Easy to assemble came with everything to do the job.Nice features works with all my power tools. Just waiting for power to go to see what the run time is with full load.

I've only had it a few days and haven't had to put it to the test yet. I got it in just 4 days. I unboxed it, read the manual, put on the wheels, put on the legs, plugged in the already fully charged battery, put in the oil, put on the LP hose, hooked up a tank and fired it up. Very simple. .
