Revised former review. A great! Generator

Revising my 3 star review of a couple of days ago when I was frustrated with my new and much anticipated WGen9500 DF. When hooked up to my whole house Magnum Charger/Inverter the generator GFCIs would trip, unlike my Champion 8500 watt generator which it was replacing. My fault. On further research I found that the WGen9500DF has a bonded neutral. After I removed the neutral ground jumper, creating a floating neutral, the problem was solved. Generator works perfectly and GFCIs do not trip. This Westinghouse is quieter, more powerful, than my Champion. And the best feature is the remote start. Wish there was a was to delete my earlier 3 star review.

Exceeded my expectations

Generator exceeded my expectations. At the lower price point for it size I was expecting some compromises so far I have found none. Assembly was quick and simple. Startup had no issues and the remote worked out of the box. Note if you connect to the 50 amp outlet get a cord with a straight plug. 90 degree plug on many cords will not fit with the wheel attached.

A Generator Powerhouse

This generator was well worth the wait, 2020 has been hard on everyone, including manufacturing. I knew this 9500DF was the generator that I wanted, I looked at the competitors, but they were not even in the same league of quality, power and price for a powerhouse generator like this. Assembly was very easy, 20 minutes and it was ready to run. Westinghouse did not skimp on features, they even included a remote start, how great is that, sit in the house, push a button and lights on ! Just by the generator sound, You can be sure , if it's Westinghouse !

Time will tell….

I have looked at 20 different dual fuel generators in this power range for backup power. Remote start and 3 year warranty were the final decision factors. Will be propane powered only, so not expecting the normal gas/carb issues. We are on a well so when no power, no water. Will update the review in 6 months.

GENSET

I settled on the Westinghouse genset after so investigations. I am well pleased with the product. It was well boxed and in good shape When opened. The wheels and front feet had to be installed but that was a simple and quick. I read the book and hooked up the battery; a matter of pushing two connector together. The oil provided was the EXACT amount needed. I started the unit on propane; it started right away and ran well. I will break ion the rings in the next week or so. Perfect.

Everything you could ask for and more

This generator has everything you could ask for, and a lot of extras to make it easy. Not only does it have an electric push button start which is nice so you don’t have to reef on a pole cord but it also has a fob so you don’t even have to go out into the weather to start it up when it’s storming out.

Fantastic machine and powers on smoothly

I bought this a few weeks ago and it is my first power generator to own. Easy to follow assembly instructions and followed the simple steps to set it up. Let me tell you that it turned on very smoothly. The electric start up is a great feature and you don't have to pull on a cord. I would highly recommend this powerful machine to anybody. Very happy with my purchased.

Easy to use the first time for beginners

We lost our Cabin in Butte County during the California wildfires in 2020. We are just starting now to rebuild. We only have our pump house working. PG&E hasn't gotten power hooked up for us yet because we need a structure and have to be living up there, so we use the generator to run the pump when we are there. It was easy the first time. We like the option of the DF this allows us not to drain the tank each time. Propane is a great option.

Nice Generator, Easy Set-Up

The WGEN9500 arrived on time as specified by the supplier with the Westinghouse packaging intact. I followed the generator assembly directions included in the kit and had it all put together and ready to go in about 20 minutes. Living in South Louisiana, there is always a chance of power outages due to either thunder storms, Tropical Storms, or major Hurricanes. I now have peace of mind knowing that this generator can power my house and is always ready to go. Thanks Westinghouse!

Excellent bang for the buck

This is a great choice for anyone with occasional power loss (for us, 5-6 times a year), needing to power the essentials. We're adding a transfer switch soon to connect it more fully to the house when needed. This option is a nice middle ground rather than much more expensive permanently installed units (which doesn't make much economic sense for people without frequent / extreme power loss). Dual fuel is also a great addition, as we almost always have one or the other in storage.
