Works Great

Bought this based and the reviews and it did not disappoint. Had an electrician wire to work with my house when he was explaining I wouldn't be able to run everting in the house and I would have to select which breakers to turn on I explained that based on the ratings I s/b able to run all of the. I proceeded to turned them all on and everything worked including the micro wave which he was sure would trip the breaker. As he left he asked me to call if I ever wanted to sell it. So far so good.

Power out for 4.5 days, generator ran on propane

I had done a couple of low load cycles previously and a hurricane came last week. Lost power at 2 am Monday, it was out until 4 pm Thursday. The generator ran one of my central AC units, fridges, tv and freezer with no trouble. I just had to keep finding more propane.

Just got it, looking forward to testing!

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,

Great Start!

I live in Louisiana now and made it through last years hurricane season without a generator. I did not want to test it again. Ordered this tri-fuel generator and it arrived way earlier than expected which was awesome. My electrician friend came and did everything in the panel and plug. Generator fired up w the handy remote control and ran fairly quiet w natural gas! Totally satisfied so far w my purchase and would recommend it to anyone needing one.

Awesome features

I just recieved this today, and it's pretty awesome. It arrived with a minorly bent frame, but it doesn't affect the function. Once i added fuel and oil, it started on the third crank, then ran like a champ. Probably going to put it through its paces during the next hurricane.

So far so good

I saved a ton not going the Genrac route. Unless you live where power outages are frequent, getting this generator is a nice trade-off. After extensive testing, I confirmed both my heat pump, well pump, and lights can operate simultaneous running on propane fuel. That was convincing enough for me. My original plan was to use gas, because at this time of writing it is ~30% cheaper per BTU compared to propane. But given I have a large buried propane tank, I'll settle on the more expensive fuel due to convenience, not having to store large quantities of gas, and dealing with old stale gas for emergencies. If I was able to siphon gas out of my vehicle this would be a different story. But most vehicles today have anti-siphon tanks. To feed my electrical panel, I installed a UL approved lock-out device to back feed. My recommendation is NOT to buy one of those knockoff versions which are not UL approved for your panel. In case of fire or some insurance claim, you do not want have an illegal electrical panel setup. Allowance varies from state to state, check with your electrician. But if you can legally do this, it is far cheaper than installing a switch panel and it feeds all your circuits instead of just a few, providing you do not exceed 9.5KW.

Worked great!

I bought this last summer for hurricane preparedness and hoped I would never need it. This year along comes Ian which destroyed my city. This generator ran my house for 6 days straight without a hitch. I'm on a well with whole house RO and I had hot water and showers the whole time. My wifi was up the whole time. It wasn't too hot outside and I had a portable A/C rather than running my central air it worked great. I didn't use the clothes dryer or oven with it but it was running with plenty of power to spare so I'm not sure if it would run those appliances without a struggle. Easy to start, easy to connect with my 50A hookup to my isolation bar connection and 50A outlet on the outside of my house. I used it on gasoline and had to travel 40 miles in order to find gas after a few days. I had a few propane tanks but didn't use them because they were more difficult to find than gasoline to replenish. I went through Charlie in 2004 and Irma in 2017 without a generator and didn't want to get caught without one again. Next year I will have more fuel stored for hurricane season. This thing passed the ultimate test and it did everything I wanted it to.

Powerhouse

I bought this for our family as a just in case. I love the electric start and the wireless keyfob that you can use to start it with. Took about 30 minutes to assemble out of the box added oil and gas, started her up and let her run. A must have for anyone who has ever had to go without power for a few days.

Great Generator

We experience power outages several times a year in Houston. This last Beryl encounter was "the straw that broke the camel's back!" I purchased the WGen9500DF with the sole purpose of it being able to run our 3.5 ton AC unit. I plugged into our 50 Amp inlet and the unit handles the AC and all other essential electrical requirements at our home. I couldn't be more satisfied with the purchase!

Don't know what else you could ask for.

Don't know what else you could ask for in a portable generator. Ordered on a Friday morning and received it Tuesday afternoon. Less than 3 working days. READ the instructions, put the oil in it, a couple gallons of gas, checked start up procedure, pushed the start button and it immediately started and purred like a kitten. Have another Westinghouse for 2 years with no issues. Great features. Excellent all the way around. Less than 15 minutes to uncrate and assemble feet and wheels.
