Good quality, needed some work to get it started.

Seems to be great quality and well built. It was easy to set up and ran on propane just fine. However, I could not get it to run on gas at first. It was new ethanol free gas and wouldn’t start or even turn over. I checked that all fuel lines were clear and it still didn’t work. Finally I drained the carburetor and it started working just fine. Seems to be good now. Maybe something from the factory was still in the carb and caused it to not start. Once that was taken care of, it works as expected.

GREAT PRODUCT!

Purchased this product after a brief power outage ( 6 hours & then again for 1 hour approximately) on days with record breaking temperatures. Our son brought us his generator which doesn't really power much and not knowing what the rest of the summer will bring with power outages and who knows what winter will bring, thought it was best to get a generator that that can help us power quite a bit. We are waiting on electrician to install a transfer switch but in the meantime we started generator very easily and very happy it is a dual fuel! I feel it was an EXCELLENT purchase!

Love Propane Feature

I mainly purchased this unit for the duel fuel. I plan to run only propane. As I was lax on maintaining fresh gas fuel. I believe using propane only will work nicely. Having the unit for about 2 weeks, I have nt needed to use it. But it starts and runs fine. Also when I pulled my house transfer switch to test for power to my house, I did nt get the change in sound to the generator as when using gas. It was as if there was drag on the unit. And because of no drag adjustment sound, I thought that maybe power was nt getting to the house. But it was. With the propane , I feel more confident that I could count on the unit starting when I need it! So far I m very happy with my purchase.

Great Value

After looking at several other brands, Westinghouse offers a great product for the money. It is well built and the warrantee is even longer than another brand that I was looking at. I bought it for power failures and this should run my whole house, (electric hot water heater and well pump). It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Dependable and Powerful

This generator has performed flawlessly from day one. I keep the battery on a constant charge from a nearby outlet and perform a test run once each month. It has served as a virtual whole-house generator during two separate blackouts, one of which required it to run continuously for almost 3 days. The 50 amp output has been sufficient for 2 refrigerators, washer/dryer, microwaves, assorted small appliances and a houseful of lights. The only downsides are that it is loud, and also not easily moved around due to its heft and the rigid wheels. I've only used it with gasoline, but it did test without a hitch using my BBQ's propane tank, a big plus if I ever need to use that feature.

Seems like a good generator but had some damage.

When I received my generator the box it came in was in perfect condition. Good delivery company. Three things were wrong after I opened it. The frame had a dent on it and one of the wheels wouldn't go on because the frame was bent. I pounded out the wheel slot and was able to mount the wheel. I figured the dent was not going to affect the operation of the generator. Generator runs fine. I put two gallons of gas in the tank and the gauge does not register or move. Taped on it and still does not register a 1/3 tank but empty. Would like a new gauge if that would be possible. I would send a photo but don't know how on the com[uter but could text you one. I'm 74 and don't know much about computers.

Works great for my whole house back up needs

I purchased the dual fuel Westinghouse 9500DF about a month ago. One of the features which prompted me to purchase this item was the ability to supply power from the onboard 50amp and 30amp sockets at the same time. My home has two electrical panels so this allows me to power my home in the event of power outages. I use a 30 and 50 amp Reliance sockets connected to the correct breakers in my electrical panels, and two interlock kits to prevent back feed to the grid in the event of an outage . Another great feature is the ability to use propane. I have two tanks with a change over switch which ensures I dont loose the ability to supply power to my house when one tank empties.

Glad I bought this in the wake of the PG&E shutoff

I bought the 9500w generator and I’m not disappointed. Very easy to install the wheels and the handle is preinstalled. Added the oil which is included and after filling with gas, and connecting the battery, it fired right up with the push button ignition. Pairing of the key mod was explained in the directions and was fairly easy. Feels awesome knowing we’ll be with power and not have to go stand in line for ice with most of the other unfortunate ones when it’s lights out. Thank you Westinghouse for such a great pruduct. Thomas

Great right out of the box

Just purchased.. Started right up with propane. Ran for 2hrs Powered portable and air compressor for break in.. Ran perfect. Hopefully I'll never have to use it but Im confidant it will work great. Only a 4 start because I haven't really run the house with it yet

Generator

Very easy to assemble. Love the remote start, but not as quick as I expected to come on and turn off with it. The feature of the USB ports is great as we are at cattle shows and sometimes need the access to charge phones. Look forward to using it at the shows as the reason we got the bigger one.
