I bought this generator to replace a 20 year old Onan portable generator I use for back up power to my house. I run off propane so I don't have to worry about gasoline going bad or the carburetor gumming up. I got it out of the box. filled up the oil, connected the propane line and turned on the propane tank. I tried the remote control first and it started right up on the second try and ran it to get warm then stopped it with the remote. Waited a few minutes then tried starting it with the start button on front panel and it started right up. Let it run a few minutes then stopped it with the front panel start/stop button. I am impressed with its performance right out of the box. The remote is a nice feature too.

I live in the Tampa Bay area and bought this dual fuel use generator a couple of weeks ago. We have an inground 200 gallon LP tank and I like the idea we'll be able to run the generator for extended periods without the risk of running out of fuel in the event of power outages due to hurricanes or other unforeseen circumstances. Now I just have to figure out how run power from the generator to the various appliances and portable AC. Hoping there's a way to wire into our main electric panel and run sections of the house from there by shutting off the main breaker and all other breakers other than those where we need power (e.g., kitchen, master bedroom w/portable AC). Will do more research and determine what's best and safest.

What little setup needed comes with accessories and tools to complete the task. Not much I can say at this time as I have just received the unit. It is simple to set up and ready to use in less than 30 minutes. The user manual content is outstanding. Very readable and informative. My primary use for this generator is to be backup power when there is a power outage. I will update this review when I have the opportunity to put it to good use.

I bought this generator a little over a month ago and I'm extremely pleased with it. The Duel fuel will come in handy for us during hurricane season, allowing us to run on gasoline that we have at home and then running off of propane after that. As it could be several days that we would be able to get gasoline again, if it is a bad storm.

I just got mine delivered yesterday while doubting that this specific model would be enough to power my whole shop but man I tell you, first start up turned on with no problems no factory defects and exceeded my expectations. Really recommend it to anybody looking for their first generator.

I am waiting for propane tanks to be delivered so I have not run it yet. I am impressed with everything that came with this generator. Didn't have to buy oil, tools, propane hose or funnel. Easy to put on wheels. It was packed very well and the shipper chosen was excellent in delivery. Knowing Westinghouse products for many years, I'm sure that once I run this generator it will be up to their high standards. I only gave a 4 because I haven't run it yet but it probably will be a 5 when I do.

I was lucky enough to be able to purchase this generator at the beginning of a 4 day power outage and was able to save our Freezer and refrigerator contents as well as have power to spare. The dual fuel option came in very handy since I was able to switch back and forth from gas to propane. Excellent product. Ran continuously for 4 days with no issues.

After losing power after a freeze (in Texas) decided I need to do something. This generator arrived in perfect condition, followed the easy to read start up instructions and everything works great. It's definitely heavy so make sure you have someone to help unload it. After that, it's very easy to move around with the wheels and handle. Super excited to add this to my storm prep kit!

So far so good. Have only got thru the 5 hour break in period so far. Hooked up to my house through a 50a inlet box with an Interlock kit in the main box. Ran the whole house on Propane including the 4-ton AC in a short test run. My furnace did show a error code, but continued to run. Fingers crossed there. The remote start is a neat feature, 200lbs isn't terrible, dual fuel is great! Hope to never run it on Gas. I hope to update later after YEARS of use.

Living in Florida it is vital to have a generator for power outages. After researching generators online and talking with friends, I chose the WGEn9500. The generator is larger than I had pictured in my mind. The wheel kit fairly easy to install even at over 200 pounds, by using the lift handle. This generator is heavy and you will need a fairly large space to store it. I have not used the generator yet, but it is strong and sturdy construction.
