We lost power about a month after purchase. It ran perfectly for 10 hours straight until power came back on. It ran SO good that at one point when the snow was coming down and the winds were howling I thought to myself "I wonder if we will lose power". Then it dawned on me we already had!

the wgen9500dfc was very easy to assemble and easy to operate. love that it works using propane and gas. the propane feature is nice because we prefer an easier form of fuel to operate it. we feel that the using the propane feature will make the generator easier to maintain

Easy assembly, a bit heavy but not unmanageable, definitely not portable though. One note on assembly, add the oil very slowly otherwise you'll spill it. I was finally able to get an interlock switch installed on my house and I should be able to run everything I need. It is loud but half of that is mechanical noise from the engine. It'll be running on propane so I'll have to alternate between, oven, dryer, and AC units but I can live with that during a total blackout like Texas had in February. Even if I never use it for a blackout it is worth the price for peace of mind.

Bought during a huge snow storm I knew my old generator was on its last legs arrived just in time the old one gave out completely ran my whole house for the remainder of power outage that lasted 14 days. Have 52 hours now first 2 oil changes done 25hr and 50 for break in. Get yourself a gallon of a good 10 /30 oil takes a little more than a quart per oil change but I know a guy who ran the first 100 hrs no oil change and his is doing just fine but deffinatly change your oil don't be that guy. Have no used propane yet but nice as a back up source make sure you follow the manual and you will be just fine.

I bought this generator to replace a smaller one hoping to be able to run a few more items now that my wife and I work from home and have 2 small kids. My neighbor bought a smaller Westinghouse generator and i was intrigued and impressed, so I bought one as well, just a bit bigger.. It was delivered a day early, easy to assemble ( put the wheels on and add oil ). Add Gas, Started right up. I was surprised how quiet it was for the size of the engine. I plugged it in to the house to see what kind of load/strain it would handle... it didn't even bog down or struggle. We run the boiler, 2 refrigerators, water cooler, microwave coffee maker, lights, Tv, Wifi, Cable box, and the garage door. Now we are ready for the next power outage.

bought this generator to run a refrigerator in the event of power service interruption. The generator is significantly overpowered for this task but every time the compressor on the refrigerator would kick on the GFI would interrupt the circuit. The work around was to buy a fitting for the 4-prong 30-amp plug which doesn't have a GFI. features that I like are: the start/remote start, clean running, smooth running. It was very easy to setup. I look forward to trying it on propane but I have not used that fuel yet. It is very heavy.

Did a lot of research before purchasing this generator. All my research kept leading me back to the WGen9500DF. I am very happy with my purchase from the unpackaging, to fueling up and hitting the remote start. It fired right up and powered everything I wanted it to and I’m sure it could do more. Very Very Happy. Recommended to a family member and they also purchased.

Unfortunately we tried using this generator for the first time when the winter storm occurred in Texas. Spent multiple hours troubleshooting using the oil that came with the item as well as fresh gasoline. Could not get it to start and in the process of trying to get my money back... Should have tested the item when I received it and paid the price for waiting until we actually needed it the most!

Have only had it running for about 20 minutes so far because I didn't have very much propane. I was very impressed the way it started immediately using propane and ran well. I'm running a 6/3 wire from a 50-amp breaker in my 200-amp home breaker panel to a power inlet box in the back yard. Looking forward to finishing up the wiring and getting it fully checked out!

I love the dual fuel aspect of this generator. I’ve owned several generators over my life and this one seems to be a quality build. While I haven’t used it extensively during power outages, the build quality seems to be great. I love the trickle charger on the battery and that it has a 50 amp out to my transfer switch.
