Option for dual fuel

I purchased in 12/2024 for power outage backup along the coast of Maine. Have not had the opportunity to use yet. But the dual fuel option Model WGEN9500DFC also has a remote start. Friends who purchased for their home spoke highly about the product.

Powerhouse

We are very excited about this investment because historically we have several power outages each year. We've owned a smaller generator for many years and it's been a lifesaver in keeping the refrigerator/freezer going. But due to its size, it can only power so much. We've been considering a "whole house" model for some time and after seeing the positive reviews and that it was on sale, we pulled the trigger. Set up was straightforward and quick. And we don't know how to act with all these features...having the push button start and gauges are a game changer. The unit itself is compact, sturdy and each option is clearly labeled. It is HEAVY, but the handle and wheels make it so easy to move around. We haven't used it yet, but it's ready to go when needed. We are confident in this generator with the Westinghouse name behind it.

This generator has more features for the money

I found it very easy to get the generator put together and going. The directions were very easy to follow. The features are outstanding. It has remote start, duel fuel with transfer from one to the other on the fly, a gauge that tells you all you need to know, and everything that was promised.

Easy start, promising

Just started yesterday. Initially, I forgot to open the fuel valve, went back to the manual and locate it; no problem. This is a very smooth machine. All controls and warnings are marked very well. It is heavier than it looks in the videos. I will need somebody to help me to move the machine to the site where I am going to keep it. Looking forward to a power cut now.

So far, VERY happy.

I bought this as a backup generator as we seem to lose power at least once a year and my little 2k generator just isn't cutting it for the power I actually need. I like that it's dual fuel but I plan on using LP only as I hate having to do the maintenance with running gasoline engines. Right out of the box, the wheels and riser feet were simple to install. Followed the instruction manual to get it running ready, filled oil and started right up off a 30lb LP tank. While this will hopefully be used sparingly when the power is out, my review is based off an initial test run. I don't foresee this generator getting heavy use but I feel so much more comfortable having an option for power, when we lose ours in the increasing storm outages in our area. Next up is to build an outside housing, install a transfer switch and get a couple 100lb LP tanks and I should be more than ready for any lengthy outage. The remote start will become a nice feature at that point and my wife will even be able to get it up and running, if I weren't home to do so. If anything changes down the road, I'll update my review.

Works great

I finally had a chance to try out the generator and it worked great. Gas lasted longer than I thought it would, conversion to propane was quick and easy. Remote start was really great since I was using it on a Jobsite and didn’t need to keep it running all of the time, only when I was running saws and the compressor. I would have given 5 stars if I didn’t need to drill out the axle holes to get the wheels on. The powder coating had made them a hair too small for the axles to go through.

Westinghouse 9500

Instructions and set up to use easy to follow. We are ready if powe goes out. the only negative is that the front "feet" are supposed to bolt to the generator frame with 2 bolts, but the frame only had one hole w a weld utility. Somehow missed the second hole and weld it. Minor issue though

Works Great!

We are new to Michigan and random sudden power outages from wind and tornados. We got this generator so that we could run a majority of the things in our home in a power outage without having to install a whole house generator. This was our first time using a generator and it was easy to set up and use, following the quick step guide. We used it with gasoline and found we could get about 11 hours of power off a full tank. It easily powered 2 full sized refrigerators, water pump, many lights, charging devices, and intermittent usage of things like blender, microwave, and coffee maker. We used it for 3 straight days until power was restored and we were thankful we had it! Worth the purchase.

Worked well at first

I bought this and it it worked great out of the box, was not damaged, but after a few months it stopped working with gasoline. The fuel was fresh and had stabilizer in it. It still runs fine on propane, but the fuel selector switch appears to be the problem.

Well thought out!

Just received, unboxed and simple instructions to put together. Had another brand for years and the Westinghouse is well thought out. Dual fuel is a must if its hard to get gasoline. Remote start if you want to shut off before bed and restart when you wake up. Digital volt/hour/Frequency/hour meter. Even the funnel has a rotating head! Highly recommended!
