Powerful and Compact

I bought the WGen9500 to replace an underpowered Generac.The 3,000 extra watt's will allow me to now power my water heater, in addition to the other home items this backup generator is meant for. The generator arrived well packaged and damage-free. Oil was fully drained, making it easier to attach the mounting feet. Total install time for feet and wheels was 10 minutes. Attaching the cables to the included battery was easy, although the positive cable needs to be looped slightly in order not to stick straight out from the generator. A short charge of the battery, adding the included oil and some gas and the generator was ready to start. The push-start is great (coming from manual, pull-only). Press and wait. The generator will go through it's start cycle, and within a few cranks the fuel was flowing and it was running clean and well throttled. Have run the generator for an hour and put it to the task of powering the home (through dedicated transfer switch) and the power was clean, generator ran smoothly under load. Very happy with this new purchase, feel comfortable with a 3-year warranty backing it (which I hope not to need). The included maintenance schedule will be useful and followed, so hoping for years of service (or not needing it) from this solidly built generator.

Thank You for the Outstanding Westinghouse 9500DF

The Westinghouse 9500DF Dual Fuel Generator is an absolute lifesaver! I recently had to rely on it during Hurricane Beryl, which hit Texas, and it delivered flawlessly. For seven days straight, I ran this generator on propane during the day and switched to gasoline at night, allowing me to keep my central air conditioner running continuously. This dual-fuel capability is a fantastic feature that provided me with the flexibility and efficiency I needed during this critical time. The generator's performance was outstanding, delivering consistent and reliable power throughout the entire period. The seamless transition between propane and gasoline made it incredibly convenient to use. As a disabled veteran with two bum shoulders, the electric start feature was a game-changer, making the startup process quick and effortless. The 9500DF handled everything I threw at it, from running my air conditioner to powering other essential household appliances without missing a beat. Not only is this generator powerful and reliable, but it’s also fuel-efficient. Using propane during the day helped to extend the runtime and reduce overall fuel costs, while gasoline provided the necessary power boost at night. The build quality of the 9500DF is impressive, with a robust and durable design that instills confidence in its long-term use. I showed the generator to my neighbors, and they were very impressed. They are now looking to purchase their own Westinghouse generators to be prepared for future disasters. The reliability and performance of the 9500DF during Hurricane Beryl convinced them of its value. Additionally, my father, after staying at my house and witnessing firsthand how reliable this generator is, decided to purchase one for himself. I also want to take this time to thank Westinghouse for this wonderful product. The Westinghouse 9500DF is a top-notch generator that I highly recommend to anyone in need of a dependable and efficient power solution. Its dual-fuel capability, excellent performance, and user-friendly design make it a must-have for any household or business. Thank you, Westinghouse, for creating such a reliable and high-quality product!

Does a great job

I previously purchased the Igen 4500 about 4 years ago and it was a great purchase. I used it for refrigerator and freezer after being hit by a tornado. I purchased the 9500 to run my house with a 50 amp breaker, and sure I will have to turn off large wattage things but no cords running through out my house.

Nicely put together

We purchased the WGen 9500DF in January. It arrived with everything included in the box to perform the light assembly required and get it ready for it's first test run. They even included the engine oil, a specially designed funnel that made adding the oil that much easier, and all the tools you need to put it together. I have only run it on propane so far, started and ran very nicely. A very well built machine with very little plastic, I expect that it will hold up well.

Great generator for the money!

Recent purchase after much research. For the price, this generator has a ton of features and plenty of power. Relatively easy to move around with supplied wheels and handle. Definitely not something you want to haul in and out of a truck bed however. Currently running it through the break-in period. All good! Starts up quick and easy after added fuel and oil. Happy with the purchase, would recommend.

Westinghouse Has Earned A Big Thumps Up

I am a disabled U.S. Army veteran who recently endured loss of power due to a hurricane that hit Texas in July and I made a promise that we would not have to endure having to endore having no power and AC if the power ever goes out again. So I started looking at verious portable generators and came upon the Westinghouse WGEN9500DF and after viewing YOUTUBE videos of people who own the WGEN9500DF I made the investment in a WGEN9500DF of my own and it was a great move on my part and I really love the remote and push button start. I would recommend the WGEN9500DF to anyone in need of a portable generotor to power their home in an emergency or to use for every day use.

Just Perfect Dual Fuel For Backup

The generator has lots of power and easy to assemble - Just follow directions and fill it with the provided oil. It came with key fob (really cool) and oil. Hooked up to propane hit button and started right up. This was one of my better purchases this year.

Very good tool during electrical outages

I bought this generator on April 17, 2024. At this time, I had a 100A electrical panel installed to power certain sockets and switches in my house in the évent of power outages. We had there electrical breakdowns since April 2024, and the generator demonstrated that it was very useful at every opportunity to provide the required energy. I use propane to run it and the generator provides the power I need. I am very satisfied with this purchase and I recommand this generator for similar applications. Benoit

Great Portable Power Pack for Welding with 50A Arc

I purchased this to run my Miller 50A Arc Welder in the field and also to double as a whole house backup generator. Its not too heavy, I can carry it in the bed of my 2017 Ford F150 using ramps to get it in and out. Not too heavy to need a second person. Very happy with the purchase.
