Although I’ve never had to use my generator in an emergency, I do start it up and run it for 20 minutes or so monthly. It starts and runs perfectly. I have an old generator its twice as loud as this one and its half as powerful. I would highly recommend this generator to anyone who is worried about being without power for an extended period of time

We recently moved to a rural area and have been experiencing power outages on a fairly regular basis. They generally don't last more than a couple hours or so, but during below zero temps even a couple hours is a concern. Having a generator became a priority, and after some research the 9500 seemed a no-brainer. Fortunately the previous owner had wired for a generator, so all we had to do was plug it in. Within a couple weeks of installation the power went down, and mere minutes later we were back up and all was well. It's a great feeling knowing that if, for whatever reason, we lose power that we'll have it back on in moments and this 9500 will provide as much power as we need without a problem. One note: If it's cold out you'll have to manually move the chock to its fully closed position. It wasn't that cold (probably well above freezing) the first time I hooked it up for a test, and I assumed, since it was relatively mild out, that the automatic choke would set itself to start the engine. I made several attempts to start the generator without success and then remember a note about setting the chock manually. I set it, and the generator fired immediately. I seriously doubt one could do better than this generator in its class, especially for the price. We couldn't be happier with it.

I bought this ( 9500DF) bad boy March 15th 2021 and received it Friday the 19th four days earlier then expected. Only plan on using this if power goes out to my house. Nothing was damaged, not even a scratch so good job by the freight company. Did have to get more oil then what they ship you because it was about 1/2 quart too low. Setting up the key fob was easy. Attached the cord they gave me to my propane tank and to the generator, flipped the battery switch up and BANG, Started right up on the first try with my key fob. Only planning on using gas as a backup if I run out of propane so I can't tell you how this baby works with gas. I would definitely recommend this unit if your looking for this size.

I bought this as my old generator is 20 years & we are in hurricane country. We usually loose power 4 to 5 times a year. And it can be out up to 2 weeks depending how severe the storms are.. we live in a rural area.. when I ran for 24 hrs it was quieter and 20 lp tank lasted 12

I bought this a few months ago in anticipation of an upcoming power outage and with the bomb cyclone headed our way with record low temperatures and wind chills, I feel super confident that we will stay warm with out Westinghouse generator and the transfer switch I had installed on the house a couple of years ago. I hope we don't need to use it but I have it in case we do. And I had a different generator that I got rid of and replaced it with this one because it has a push to start and dual fuel.

We had tornados go through our neighborhood and we lost power for 2 days. MY sump pump did not work and it flooded my basement. and carpet and walls had to be replaced. I dont want to go through that again. So this is the answer. I also have the transfer switch installed.

Purchased this a week ago for our mobile woodshop. Works great. Haven't had much luck with the remote start yet. It works, but I usually have to hit the manual choke for it to start so trying to start remotely doesn't do much for me, but having a remote shutoff is nice!

I am a licensed electrician and I recommend this product to all my clients . The generator has multiple receptacle configurations for small or medium to larger homes and meets most of my clients needs . I like the dual fuel feature for those that want to use propane the simple hookup and operation are easy and the fact that Abby tank of propane does not go bad sitting in storage .If you can fill your lawn mower with gas than you can fill this as well . Taking care of the fuel and oil properly has delivered years of trouble free service for me and my clients. Mike R Valley stream Ny

Great generator, bought about a month ago. Easy setup, generator has electric start and key fob. Its easy for my wife to start and operate. The generator powers our whole hose with well, electric hot water heater, pellet stove, furnace and more. Would recommend

My order arrived without any complications and so far the quality of this generator is top notch. I only ran it for an hour so far and tested all functionality and it performed flawlessly. Once I have the need to run it more I will leave an updated review.
