The WGEN9500DF is a solidly built generator. I chose Westinghouse because they have a reputation of being well-built and I am glad I did. Living in Florida, you really need to have reliable emergency power and this generator fits that description! Check it out/

This is a very cool and techy generator. It powered the majority of my electrical equipment. Examples - mid size refrigerator, lights, portable oven and charged up my phones. It was very handy this past week. I was glad I had it and after assembly, it cranked right up and I used the remote starter. I highly recommend it! Remember, this is just another temporary replacement of your home electricity provider. It's there to help you with your essential needs during emergency and not power up the entire house including a/c or heat along with all the major appliances you have within your house. 😉

While I haven't used the WGen9500 for very long, the times it has been used has been flawless. The generator starts easily using either the push start or the remote control. Time will tell if the fuel efficiency is as good as advertised, and this was one of the deciding factors in choosing this generator. We live in coastal North Carolina and made this purchase for backup power during hurricanes, so I'm sure it will be tested fully soon.

We needed a replacement generator that provided more watts than what we had with our 15 year old one. Purchased the WGen9500DF so that we had the option of using propane or gas and could use a 50 amp cord to a transfer switch. Easy instructions to follow for assembly. Included everything you need - tools, oil, propane hose and battery charge cord. Unit is convenient to use with included remote or start button on front panel. Started with no problem on propane or gas and runs smooth. Changed the oil after running engine break-in period. Will be nice to be able to use the electric start feature. Looking forward to many years of use with this new generator. A couple things to note with the instructions: 1) At least twice in the instructions, "ECO MODE" is referred to. This model does NOT have "ECO MODE" and referring to it in the manual will probably confuse more than a few users. 2) The instructions and diagrams for draining the Carburetor for storage shows that there is a drain hole with a hose attached at the bottom of the carburetor. While that would be great and is actually on my iGen2200 inverter, it is NOT on this model. Only a screw that can be removed to drain the carburetor. Make sure you have a funnel under it to direct the gas to a proper container, otherwise it will be on the unit and the ground.

Very pleased so far with this purchase. Tons of features, packaged well, and directions were easy to follow for setting up. Started right up. Plenty of fuel options, LP, LNG, and Gas. Lots of electrical connections for output. Remote start, battery charger...lots of features loaded into this generator. There also is a proprietary smart transfer switch connection(sold separately) As I mentioned, there are lots of features built into this. I would recommend.

Although I haven't tried this generator out in an actual power outage, I am quite impressed on what I have seen so far. The first thing that impressed me was how well it was packaged for shipment with all parts and accessories complete. I also liked how the manual was so informative, well written, with easy to understand illustrations. The first thing I tried was a heavy duty power drill; which didn't phase it. Then I tried the well pump, and you couldn't hardly tell when it kicked on. The last thing I tried was the whole house, of which I couldn't tell the difference between being on the generator or being on the main electrical service.The only advice that I would give the user would be to use premium non-ethanol gasoline treated with a fuel stabilizer. All in all, a very good generator, and highly recommended.

I purchased the generator a week ago after my 22 year old generator stopped working. This generator is much better and the technology has come a long way. This generator has remote electric start, included battery and charger and an extra 2000 watts to boot. It started right up and does everything it is suppose too.

This generator is very well-packaged and everything for assembly is thought of. It includes oil, wrenches to pop the wheels on, etc. The outlet panel is very sturdy and well laid-out. It even has a plug-in battery maintainer to ensure the on-board starter battery is always ready to go. No gasoline residue in tank or carburetor when brand new, so very easy to maintain if you plan on using propane only from the get-go.

Product was delivered to our garage on a pallet. Wheels where relatively easy to install with a second person, you could use a dolly so you don't have to lean it on it's side if your alone. Battery was fully charged and everything functioned properly on arrival with no signs of scratches, dents or damage. Have only run it for 5 hours so cannot vouch for it's long-term durability but happy with it overall.

I love this machine so much that I bought 2. I have it connected to my home to operate some essentials, like the sewage pump and refrigerators and freezers, but I'm able to also operate my whole house air conditioning with this unit. If I want to run my stove or dryer, I simply turn off the air conditioning while I'm doing those tasks. This got me though 3 day power outages. I love the propane option because I don't have to worry about the gas in the tank going bad.
