The derecho hit on 8/10/20 destroying so much of the power grid in Eastern Iowa. My daughter has this model and ordered one immediatedly for us. Delivery was dellayed and did not occur until a few days after power was restored. However, we plan to install a transfer switch before winter because of ice storms that disrupt power. We borrowed a small generator for a few days but this one will provide three times the power. Even without the transfer switch there are four regular plugins so more options to run more than just the freezer and refrigerator. It is an impressive machine. Assembly was easy and instructions for the novice were very clear and detailed. We have immediate reassurance should a storm hit again that we have a generator and two cans of gas to keep the important applicances running and potentially more after the transfer switch is installed.

Purchased about 2 weeks ago. Delivered promptly and safely. Everything was in the box and in good condition. Instructions are clearly written. This generator looks very well built. All controls are clearly marked and easy to access. I have not yet had the chance to run it yet, so only 4 stars. This should run everything that I need it to run. Model is the WGEN9500DF. I live in a very rural area & we often lose power, so a good generator is a must.

I purchased this a couple of weeks back and it came in today, so excited to have, took it to the job site and couldn't get it to start. Now in the process of troubleshooting the unit. Doesn't bode well with me as the factory should have insured the unit was functioning. Once this unit is running I know it will be everything we wanted,our friends have one and we've seen it be an absolute workhorse. but for now, disappointed

Had some issues initially getting started with gas. Started with propane then switched to gas and now it starts fine. Tested it out and it will power everything needed in case of electrical outage. The only question is durability/longevity, but so far so good.

I bought the DF model after several power turn offs. We live in a remote area, so when the power goes off, we are very dark. I unpacked, put on the wheels, put in the correct oil level, hooked a propane cylinder to the 9500DF, pushed the remote start button, and the generator started immediately. I researched all buying options, and the 9500DF is truly the best answer to power outages. Since I purchased the 9500DF, I have purchased a transfer switch and a 50 amp power cord. Excellent product so far; the true test will be when the power goes out, but I feel well prepared with 9500DF. (I prefer the power strip).

I've been in the market for a new generator for some time and after conducting multiple internet searches and scouring through hundreds of reviews, I found this one to be the best one for what I needed and for a really great price. Living in Florida, having a generator is a must. Finding one that has a large enough power output to run our house is also a must. Our previous Honda 7500 watt generator had finally given up the ghost and it was becoming way too difficult to start, especially as I'm getting older. The push button and remote start/stop features of this model really appealed to me. With its 30 foot range, I can start it and stop it at the end of the evening from the comfort of inside my home and not have to go out into the elements. Another aspect that really appealed to me was the dual fuel capability. For those who've been in or around a disaster area, you know that gasoline quickly becomes a hot commodity and waiting in lines for fuel is always nerve-wracking to say the least. With this dual fuel model, I can have multiple propane tanks sitting on standby and I don't have to worry about the gas going bad over time. This model is 2000 watts larger than my former generator yet it is dimensionally smaller and much lighter than my previous generator which is another great convenience for storage in our outdoor shed and moving it to our house receptacle. I would highly recommend this model to anyone looking for a compact, high-power-output generator.

Bought this right after a power outage to my home so I needed it up and running quickly. The instruction manual is very thorough making setup a breeze. It has more than enough power for my needs, and was able to power our entire house during the outage caused by a storm.

I bought this after the "Great Texas Freeze", so happy I did! No more power outages for me.It was easy to assemble, rolls around easily with the no-flat wheels. Pretty compact considering the huge wattage. Looks nice, easy to start with the push button or remote. Makes my life easier, no more worries! I love it!

If your looking for a well built, nicely constructed unit, This is For you.. Large enough to supply power for running most everything in a home within reason . I picked the dual fuel as you never know where you'll find fuel during an outage.. I also bought this for its sound rating over other units.. The ability to self start with an ST unit is an excellent exclusive of this brand.. This is not my first Generator nor my first WestingHouse product.. Nice Job!!

We bought this after 8 days of no electricity during 105 degrees in Texas heat last summer. We are in our 60s with health problems. We are so excited to have gotten this generator. We actually bought peace of mind. Westinghouse has been a great provider of various things to have had the staying power that they do. We so look forward to the ease of the Texas summers now with no dread. We are excited to receive our generator cover! Thank you!
