Well Built and Packaged

Received in a timely manner within 5 days after order. Instructions well written and assembly was very easy. After assembly and adding oil it fired right up on propane. A little more noise than expected. Construction and sturdiness seems to be top notch.

Bad luck but hopeful for replacement

So I would LOVE to give this a good review but am unable to do so at this time. Apparently mine has some sort of defect, despite only being run for maintenance for the first 15 minutes monthly "recharge." I will give a positive review if the issue is resolved and the generator is replaced under the warranty and extended protection package I purchased.

too late for the hurricane

no more power outages, just received. Had a interlock switch installed and a soft start on my heat pump. I did a break in then a trial run. Worked perfectly, powered the whole house including the heat pump. Also was able to use one burner on our radiant cooktop. this will get us through any future outages. Very pleased

As descibed!

I did my homework before buying and everything about the 9500 tri-fuel is acurately described! Easy setup and runs perfect on propane and natural gas. I'm choosing not to use gasoline so not to have to babysit with additives. Great purchase at a great price!

Did alot of research

After winter storm Uri hit TX we did a lot of research into a generator that would power our needs without blowing our budget or putting us in debt. This model runs our home, refrig and 3 freezers... we are wise with ac/dishwasher/washer/dryer use (not everything going at the same time). The features of this generator mean my wife or I will be able to easily power up when we are the electrical grid fails us. Bring on hurricane season. We are prepared and love our generator!

Outstanding portable generator set

We purchased this model generator to use as a stand by power source for our home. It runs everything in our home with ease. We have gas appliances. The 9500 DF runs furnace, lights, freezers and refrigerators along with bathroom and ceiling fans. The only thing that makes it flinch is the central air but the AC is not a priority to us. Westinghouse was not even on my radar for a portable generator until I researched deeper. Westinghouse has good reviews, longevity, and competitive prices. The generator runs very well and we are at 5600 feet elevation. The way I understand it, at 3.5% derate per 1000 feet of elevation above sea level the 9500 Watt rated generator is producing an actual Watt rating around 7638 Watts. Even at less than optimal output we can run our home on gas or propane.

Very Satisfied

I've had this generator for about a month and a half and am completely satisfied with it. Assembly was straightforward as well as start-up instructions. The dual fuel is a great feature as well as the remote start. We haven't had a power outage yet to run it when it's really needed, but it has tested fine and I expect it to function well. I've been looking at buying this specific generator for quite some time and I'm glad that I finally made the purchase.

Top Shelf Quality

I bought the wgen9500DF after comparing to other brands, reading endless reviews, and speaking with the Westinghouse Customer Service Department.This generator is a powerful, well engineered and generously equipped model. All the instructions and accessories arrived as expected, and the generator was in good condition.

Built Solid

I bought this at the end of last years hurricane season and just broke it in for the next one. I've run it for about 3 hours on propane in my break-in cycle and changed the oil a couple of times. The only assembly was attaching the wheels and feet which only took a couple of minutes. I took the spark plug off to put a bit of oil in so I didn't dry start and that was easy. I also changed the oil a few times inbetween cycles which was also easy. Started right up the first time each time. Your not going to fit a standard oil pan under it and it is a bit to heavy to lift for an oil change. I just used a small rectangular piece of Tupperware that was looking rank anyway and it worked great.

GREAT FOR THE WHOLE HOUSE

This generator took about 45 minutes to set up. Great easy start, runs equally well on gasoline and propane. More quiet than our old Briggs & Stratton generator. We have been able to run one of our central air units as will as all of the required lights on our 3700 sq ft home, 2 refrigerators, hot water heater a couple of IMac computers, Internet, 2 TVs. Were in Central Florida getting ready for hurricane season. Great purchase. S. Polk
