The Dual Fuel Feature is GREAT

Bought this because we need a lot of power and it offered dual fuel - gasoline and propane. I had a gasoline powered unit and did not use it often enough and the gasoline got old. With propane, I can exercise the unit without having to deal with gasoline. I also have a few propane containers and that gives me an extra source for fuel.

Great manual, wheels ship unattached

The manual is thorough and answered all the questions I had as someone who doesn't know engines much. Do note that the wheels don't ship attached. You have to lift the unit a bit to get them on. It's easy, but you might need help. You don't have to put the wheels on either if you wanna just leave it stationary.

Great Generator with lots of power!

Great Generator. Easy to get up and running with directions and materials provided including oil. I had my house wired for 50 amps and this generator was able to power my entire house with lights to include two refrigerators and two freezers. Also it will be instrumental in keeping my pool motor cylinder during cold snaps in Texas.

Great Upgrade

I had used a smaller unit for years and always needed to juggle breakers to make sure I didn't overload the smaller unit. This Westinghouse is set up for a transfer switch from the factory, has electric and remote start plus 50amps breaker protected of power! The quality of construction is obvious everywhere you look. I was comparing other units and was convinced to purchase the Westinghouse by the professional reviews I read. They were so emphatic about the quality and performance and they are right!

Good generator

The generator works good. I am able to run my home's old central 3-ton AC, and more. I had an electrician put a 50 amp inlet to my breaker box. The only issue is that I need to use starter fluid (spray can) to get the engine to start when cold. I use the remote electric start and spray some fluid into the air filter when the engine starts turning over, and it starts. When warmed up it starts on its own. I like the fact that it comes with a battery charger. Every couple of months of storage you should charge the battery for 8 hours. I like the remote start. If I want, I can start and stop the generator from inside my house.

Great generator

Great generator. The setup instructions were pretty simple. My electrician put in a power transfer switch on the breaker box so got that covered. And the electrician thinks the generator can easily run the HVAC, OR most of the house. Hope I never need it to power the house but at least I'm ready now.

Nice features

I bought the WGEN9500 to plug into my transfer box and run my whole house. I bought the unit in an emergency situation and have been unable to test it fully, however the amount of time that we ha e run it and in the limited capacity of use it performed very well.

outstanding value

I needed a portable generator since my wife is now on oxygen and where we live we get above average power outages. Took me 5 minutes to put wheels on and rubber feet, 5 mins to add oil and review quick startup. Electric start fired generator right up. After a few minutes I added 4 power tools just to see how it ran. There was no sound difference like it was struggling! I am very pleased at this point with the generator. Next a electrician to update the fuse box and I'm all set for next outage!

Pretty straight forward out of the box

Pretty straight forward out of the box. (I'm an Engineer and have electrical skills so if you don't you might need some help installing). We've not had a chance to utilize it as yet - which is always a good thing :) But on the test run it appeared to work just fine, ran everything we needed it to and even a house full of Christmas lights.
