Great value, easy setup

I got this for home use in case of a power outage. It was packaged very well and setup was very easy. Everything is supplied in the packaging including tools, oil, hardware, charged battery and easy instructions. All I had to do is install the feet and wheels, connect the battery. add the oil, add my own gas and it started up with the first try of the remote starter. I hope I never have to use it, but it is very comforting knowing it is there.

Excellent Choice!

We upgraded our manual transfer switch to ten circuits from six and needed a larger generator. After researching several manufacturers I was sold on the reviews from other purchasers. This WGen9500 DF is well made and designed for ease of maintenance. Very impressed with the control panel and accessory items included. The battery and grounding lug are easily accessible unlike by older generator. This is my fourth portable home standby generator and this is by far the most well designed.

Great features. Definitely an upgrade.

After Hurricane Beryl, definitely needed something that can handle the job of powering a whole house. After doing the research, this definitely made the most sense both price and features wise. Feeling more confident the next time we have a power outage.

The Complete Package

When going for emergency back-up power don't short change your self! I did a lot of research which resulted in a great choice - the 9500DF. You won't regret buying this powerful, full featured generator. Unlike some competitors this one comes with wheels, handle and battery plus the adapter for propane tank. I bought the extra power of 9500 running watts so the engine will not strain under 7500-watt load. . I barely notice when i turn on a 1500 watt space heater. Fill the oil on a level surface and you may need a little more than what comes with it. Even though it has an automatic choke when using the remote, I found the manual choke led to faster starts. I couple with a 10 circuit, 30-amp transfer switch and feel confident that my family will not be left in the cold and dark this winter -all at far less cost than a standby generator.

Built like a rock!

Very compact, very portable and just over 200lbs! Built like a rock, I'm using it to handle intermittent power outages for our 2500 sqft house in fire country. Actually, our electrician recommended this model along with others costing much, much more. This one fit our needs the best.

Perfect for whole house back-up power

Arrived on time and in perfect condition. Easy, minor assembly and no surprises. Strait forward removal of neutral ground bond wire for powering main breaker panel. Easy earth ground rod attachment. Started 1st try with remote or panel button. Worked on gasoline and propane. Excellent features.

A lot for the money

I bought this a week ago. I Thought it would have to be returned. After putting wheels on , oil , gas , tried to start it several times and would not start. I did all the steps and nothing. Tried to take out spark plugs as recommended it would not come out. But that was due to the cheap nothing tool that came with it. Used a craftsman spark plug wrench came right put back in started right up. Run great. I think it will be a good purchase. Haven’t put load on it yet will do another review after I have it connected to the house. In the process of installing a soft start my home ac. It should run the whole house. I did try propane also ran smoother then gas.

"Perfect necessity for living off the grid!"

I just bought this in the middle of July and just received it but I'm in the process of moving so i will unpack it at the new place. It's without a doubt,one of the best investments I've ever made. I decided to buy one after I heard my sister's run so I decided to order one. I've always been a big Westinghouse fan ever since using their products for many years. This unit here has everything you need, when out camping or during an emergency power outage. To be honest I didn't purchase it because of everything that it did but because of the name itself and that's a plus. Sorry that I can't send more photos or a video right now but I can't wait to use it!! I bought many generators in my life but none of them are as nice as this one so people ,what are you waiting for get you one 😁👍

Easy to set up and get started

I bought this unit to tie in directly with my natural gas line. Upon opening the box, it was set up in 30 minutes and ready to test within the hour. I bought this for Hurricane Season in Louisiana and am hopeful if having to use it, it will be for a short period of time. Hooking up to Natural Gas will be a great alternative versus storing regular gasoline.

WGEN9500DF

I received the package today. The shipping company did do a little damage to the unit as shipped (a couple of dents and scraped blue paint) which is my only complaint. The unit itself was easy to set up. The remote works very nice. I am quite pleased with the unit, and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good affordable generator. I intend to use this on the farm and in power outage conditions.
