Very impressed

Ordered online from a home supply store. Setup was very straight forward and took about 20 minutes. I really like the voltage output on the display panel and the remote starter. Starts easily and is not too loud. I have a transfer switch on my home for 30 AMP service. I like that it also has ability to supply 50 AMP service - though I don't have a need for it. Supplying 9500 running WATTS should be adequate to supply everything I need for a power outage. I'm very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend to others.

The Whole Package

This generator is a life saver, specifically in the heat of the summer. We had some nasty storms that took down some trees and left us without power. We use another brand generator and it only lasted for a day. This generator is a powerhouse. The electric start feature is a lifesaver as well as the dual fuel capabilities. You’ll never find yourself running out of gas when you have a spare propane tank to run it putting it together And having it up and running was even simpler I know this generator is going to last for a long time and I can’t wait to use it more often

Generator with great features

I upgraded to this 9500 watt generator because I wanted to power everything when the power went out. The booklet and instructions were very good, I appreciate the quick start guide, it is very good at guiding you through everything you need to know to get started without reading the entire manual. I like that it's tri-fuel, I didn't want to put gasoline in it just to set it up and try it out, so I used the propane tank from my grill to make sure that everything worked properly. After reading the manual I discovered there is a screw that will allow you to drain the carburetor, the thing I was concerned about why I didn't want to use gasoline to try it out. Storing power equipment for long periods of time with gasoline in the carburetor causes problems, so this is an amazing feature. This also has an electric and recoil (pull) start. all you have to do is push the start button and the generator starts right up. I was surprised that it started right away since it takes a little bit for the propane (in this case) to get through the hose. Press the button again to make it shut off, (so easy.) Another feature I have come to appreciate is the remote start fob. I can start the generator while inside my house. I tried it multiple times and it works perfect. Overall, it's everything I was hoping it would be, it exceeded my expectations and I'm very happy with it! I just wish I had natural gas where I live, I would never have to stock up on fuel, a great feature if I ever get natural gas where I live. Westinghouse makes a great product!

Nice generator

Just got delivered today. Was packed very well. The box had some damage but the unit was in great shape. Detailed instructions in manual. I really like the dual fuel feature and the automatic start. Haven't had a chance to run it yet but will update review in a couple days. Don't see any reason it won't run fine.

Super great features

I bought this not WGEN9500DF April 24, 2021 and now looking forward to our next power failure! The remote start will be a move feature. I am wiring a distribution panel interlock so I can safely back feed the 50 amps. This should provide the power I need for my AC, refrigerator and a couple of lights!

Well Engineered and Rugged

I bought this on September 12, 2018 but due to illness I left in box sealed. Started it up last month and she runs like a top. I worked for Westinghouse back in the late 60's as a nuclear project engineer on the polaris nuclear submarine program and I have always been very proud of Westinghouse products and their performance.

Got me through Hurricane Milton

I bought this earlier in the year, tested it, and then put it away. I got to use it for real last week after Hurricane Milton rolled through. I topped up the battery just in case, and it fired up on the first button press. The day after Milton I connected the generator to my 50A inlet and I was up and running instantly. We had A/C, hot water, fridge, chest freezer, microwave, coffee maker, TV, and some lights for the entire day. With just the A/C (3.5 ton, set to 78 F), fridge & chest freezer I was using gasoline at about 0.5 gallon per hour or so. I refilled the generator in the evening, around 5PM (started it around 7AM that day). We ran the water heater for a little while with the A/C off just in case. As I was putting the generator away for the night, the power came back on. I wasn't even fretting it though, since we were quite comfortable with what we got out of this generator. My only complaint is that the generator is quite loud, but it's not really an issue when everyone on your street has their own going at the same time. Once inverter generators of this output class become more widely available, I will probably replace this with that.

WGen9500DF

Purchased for emergency backup for storm power outages. Easy assembly and start up. Tested using Propane, started right up, powered everything I needed it to in th entire house including two refrigerator freezers, full size deep freezer, well pump, even the whole house AC unit. Test run it every year and it starts right up. Have only used the LP fuel. I have never had to run it for more than a few hours, so don't know how long 20lb propane tank will actually last.

Fantastic item. Easy to use. Fires right up

Our old generator was giving us grief so I read good reviews on this one and bought it. Easy to put on wheels and get it up and running. Had to try the dual fuels and both worked exceptionally well.. Key fob is attached to the pull start. Got it paired up but probably won't use as it is very easy to get running. The big wheels make it easy to roll across our graveled garage floor. Nice to know we have a reliable generator!

Great features

I bought this at the beginning of the year and I am finally getting the chance to unboxed it. The generator has really great features and it started instantly with the electric start. I have not had the chance to use it yet but I am sure it will perform.
