Impressed!

Got my new WGen last week and just now got to unpacking it. I have 3 Gens (Cat, Honda, and now this Westinghouse). I can't wait to use it. It's a beast for sure! Weighs heavier than my Honda. It has the 50 amp & 30 amp hookup, which is a plus. This will be my go-to Gen when firing up homes. (I do cleanup & startups on new mobile homes in the field.) Thank you, Westinghouse.

Lots of options and features

Have not had to use it in real life but so far it is as described. Set up was simple and only issue was the oil provided only filled it to the low level mark so had to add extra oil to bring the level up to safe level. Started up quickly with no issues and I run a electric drill off the 120 volt port. Tried the battery charger and worked great.

Easy Setup, great emergency generator

We habitually lose power several times a year because we live in the country. The last time the electricity was out for days. I was worried about food getting spoiled. This generator foots the bill. I need to explore all the options it offers because I only used the 120v outlets for the refrigerator/freezer. It definitely gives you ‘piece of mind’ when Mother Nature gets nasty. Great product and would recommend..

Excellent Generator!!!

We had to wait for delivery but it was worth it as I work from home, depending on constant power for my computer/internet and this generator will be here for me! My husband drives OTR, I can't start a smaller unit this one it perfect with the remote start. Also we built a shed to house the unit and are using a transfer switch to power our entire house, when need arises. Thank you Westinghouse!!

Generator

Received the generator when scheduled. My husband put on the wheels, added oil and gas. Started right up. Then we used the key fob to start it. Worked like a charm. Bought it to use for emergency home power outages. We just got it so time will tell. So far so good. That's the only reason I can't give it 5 stars.

Everything I was looking for!

This generator is big and powerful! Started right up with a push of the button! Directions were easy to follow step by step. Powers my whole 5th wheel RV with the 50 amp plug. Ready for the Texas heat or freeze! It's Heavy, 220 Lbs. but the big wheels and the handle makes it easy to maneuver.

Best generator for the price and features!

Our Westinghouse WGen9500DF generator arrived in great condition and unboxing and setup were very easy. This generator has all of the features important to us in a generator - dual fuel, electric start, battery charger with its own input jack, remote start key fob, and most importantly, the power to run most of our major appliances and downstairs A/C unit simultaneously in the event of a power outage. We live in a humid region of the country and the ability to run the A/C during a power outage is a must. The three year warranty and lifetime nationwide technical support are also a plus. I would recommend this generator highly!

Piece of mind for a rainy day

We got this to help keep critical parts of the house powered during loss of power. Pros: like that it came with oil and a properly shaped funnel to fill the reservoir. It is also nice that it came with a cord to keep the onboard battery charged so it doesn't die between uses. Cons: would like for the generator to have a load meter so we can easily see how heavily it is loaded. Other brands we have used included an easy to read load gauge.

Very Easy Assembly, First Time Start:

I assembled this generator right out of the box, put the provided oil and added gas. First kick and the generator starts with no problems whatsoever. I am impressed by the generator. The sound level is acceptable and it is an excellent choice for my needs.

Great Features and long warranty

I bought this in anticipation of needing it for a storm power outage. Haven’t had the chance to use it like that yet. I have an all electric house so when we’re out, we are out! This isn’t big enough to run everything but will run enough to keep us going until power is restored. I had ordered this online and had it dropped at the store where I picked it up. It weighs close to 300 lbs so it was a beast to get from the van to the ground. I wound up cutting the box off of it and put the wheels and feet on it which was very easy. With the wheels, my 11 year old can move it around no problem in spite of its weight. Added the oil, gas, and installed the battery and it fired right up. It has 3 ways to start and all 3 worked right away. I am not looking forward to the power outage but if it happens, I feel prepared.
