Great Generator

It was surprisingly easy to maneuver around given its weight. When on gasoline, it was able to simultaneously power all four heating elements on our electric stove. According to our Sense home energy monitor, it was providing about 8500 watts continuously at the time. The energy monitor did report a frequency of around 62.5 Hz, which is slightly higher than the 60 Hz specification. Hopefully there's some way that can be fine tuned.

WGen9500DF Generator worked perfectly!

We live in a remote wooded area and experience power outages 2-3 times per year. I bought this portable generator to keep the refrigerators cold and provide heat during these outages. I set it up to provide power to several circuits using a sub-panel and manual transfer switch. I contacted customer service with a question on the generator connection and got a prompt answer. Within 2 weeks of getting the generator set up, we had a 3-day power outage. I ran the generator intermittingly during the outage on both propane and gasoline. Start-up and switching fuel was simple and easy. The generator worked flawlessly and kept us comfortable during the outage. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Good Machine

Got this generator before storm season. Very powerful but compact and easy to move with strong handle and large wheels. All controls on same side and with two fuels and three ways to start it should be easy to use. Glad to have a well-known company behind it.

Perfect For My Home

This generator is both the right size and function for my generator shed located back up power. The remote start was what caused me to buy it. The tri fuel function means I can adapt to propane if I need to. Also, the 50 AMP socket is large enough to run my entire home, and teh surge power means I don't need to be concerned with things starting at once, drawing more amps.

Impressive quality

I am impressed with the quality of this generator at this price point, especially for a dual fuel model. I have not used it extensively yet, but it has started and run under load with no problem. So far I am very satisfied, to the point that I just purchased a Westinghouse pressure washer.

WGen9500DF is a beast!

I bought this generator because it will power all the circuits I need during an outage. The dual-fuel option was a plus because here in the South Texas Hill Country propane is what we use. I unboxed it today and fired it up with no problem and even synced up the remote start FOB. It was a little tuff to maneuver until I got the wheels on it due to the beefy ness of this unit but that was a breeze as well. Not sure when the next ice storm will hit us or the next environmental event will take down the grid but my wife and I feel like we are ready to "weather" the storm. It is a wonderful feeling.

Getting the job done

We purchased the 9500DF last year. We have been able to use this through both construction projects and weather events. Then we recently added the bypass plug on the house and it's Getting the job done for whole house electricity in our 1800 sqft. space.

Worth every penny!

Although you can’t really put a price on keeping your family connected and safe during a power outage, the WGen9500DFc is everything you need in a convenient, and affordable package. Simple to maneuver, 3 separate simple starting options, and the convenience and versatility of the gas and propane options are key to seamless comfort during a power outage. The range of power port options well cover any needs you might have and the overall size is not overly uncomfortable for storing. This is a well thought out product and I’m comfortable knowing I have one!

Pure Power

I did a lot of research on what brand generator I will buy. After weeks of researching, I end up buying the westinghouse 9500. I used the 50amp to power my whole house of 2600sq. The best part of this generator is the key fob. I will post a review again in 6months.

Remote Start Generator

I purchased this generator to replace my old one which quit working. I was pleased with how quickly it arrived. It was easy to unpack & to put on the feet & wheels. After putting gas & oil in, it started right up. Have not actually had a chance yet to put it to full use but will be ready should our power go out. I have great expectations so I hope it doesn't disappoint.
