I bought this generator only couple of weeks ago after extended search and checking, reading many reviews . Wgen9500DF always come out on the top or close to it. Unpacking and assembly was a snap. Oil included and the battery was charged. Electric start at first time did required the setting of the choke (The Quick Start Guide didn't ask for it) but then started right away. Load testing at ~2kW went fine, the engine idled and rev up nicely as the load came on line and cycled. Since the generator just a fairly expensive insurance policy against outages the real value of it I'll learn later, preferably much later. Until that I cannot judge reliability or peak-load performance. The generator has a good array of outlets and safety features. I like the digital display however a watts readout function would be useful. I'm not sure the real life value of a remote starter since you have to turn on the fuel valve somehow, but nice to have one. Overall I'm very satisfied for now and hope it will stay that way.

I recently purchased the WGEN9500DF to power my house during frequent power outages here. Very easy to assemble and fired right up. Powers everything in the house and more. The fuel consumption is very good, and the noise was much quieter than I expected. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Was at work when power went out. My Wife was able to pull this out of the box and attach the bumpers and feet easily. Oil came with it (took the whole thing). Just make sure you turn the fuel valve to on position. The instructions were very detailed which was great. Made for an easy experience. I'm hoping that this thing last a long time.

Bought this due to 3 lengthy blackouts and decided I'm too pampered to deal with no septic, water, A/C, edible food. This should power up whatever I need easily. Haven't had a chance to use it yet but strangely looking forward to it. Will review again after next outage.

We bought this last year and have needed it twice. We live in a rural area, so having a backup power source is important to us. Our house is equipped with a transfer switch. The generator is able to power all the lights and three refrigerators. It can power the water heater, dishwasher, washer, and dryer if you manage which one is being powered. That's easy to do from our breaker box. We are glad to have it.

Looking forward to really seeing what this bad boy can do! I purchased this generator specifically to run my entire house in case hurricane season gives us any big problems. Westinghouse has always been a solid name when it comes to reputation. It has everything I was looking for including a ton of power. One of my main concerns is keeping the refrigerator running so I will never have to throw away the entire contents ever again. I've done that three times already and thats plenty. My other main issue is staying cool in the Florida heat during a power outage. This generator should be able to run my central HVAC unit. My electric panel is generator ready.

Been looking for a powerful generator that didn't break the bank and this one fit the bill. Ordered on Thursday and was delivered on Monday. Put it together, filled with oil and gas, and it fired up on the first start. Soooo happy. Cant wait for the power to go out...lol

We haven't had to use this yet but it came highly recommended by coworkers of my husband. He looked at a lot of generators and is a mechanic and decided on this one. Started up great. We hope we don't have to put it to too much use but are relieved to have it if needed.

My family and I recently moved to Florida and because of the storms and possibility of hurricanes, we need the protection of a generator for our home and convenience if the event happened. I am want to do a lot of research and after reading a lot of reviews #MIN at Westinghouse was the generator I want to go with. It had the all of the features that I required in a generator, electric start, dual fuel ( gas or propane )and remote module for starting it without having to go outside. Assembly what little there is was extremely easy. It appears to be constructed extremely well. W did buy the umbrella also to protect it from the rain while running. Started right up. I will be running it prior to having an outage to break it in properly. I will follow up with another review once I complete the breakin.

I bought this generator in preparation for the 2024 hurricane season. Our previous generator was outdated and not able to keep up with our demand requirements. This Westinghouse dual fuel generator is awesome and I look forward to installing a transfer switchbox to maximize the features of this generator.
