I bought the generator this week due to a massive power outage in our area. I unboxed it, added oil, added fuel, hooked up the battery andplaced the choke on . It fired up immediately. I was also impressed with the remote start. I placed the generator in my detached garage and could start it with the remote from my house.

The generator arrived boxed and palletized. Unboxing showed no damage and assembly of the wheels and feet was simple. I filled the oil and gas tanks, but when I tried to start it with the push button start nothing happened. After several tries I gave up and started it manually it ran fine. I let it run for about 20 minutes thinking the battery needed charging, but that did not happen. I checked the battery connections and re-read all the instructions, but to no avail. Then I checked the wires that were tucked up under the control panel and saw two male/female connection wires held together with a zip tie and saw that that was the issue. Once connected, the generator started as it should with the push button. It would have been nice if this necessary connection was mentioned in the start-up instructions.

This is a strong well built generator that was so simple to take out of the box and fire up. We endured the freeze and power grid failure in Texas in February 2021 and I will not worry about my home being damaged and my family being at risk during the next catastrophic event.

We are in East Texas and power outages happen often with our storms. We are so excited to put this generator to the test. The advantage of propane is that gasoline can get old if things go well for too long around here. Propane doesn't go bad. We had two other people choose this generator at the same time we did, and found out later we were all on the same page for quality.

Bought this to replace a 4400 watt (really 3500 watt) generator that couuldn't do the job during an ice storm. Love the fact that this generator is rated at running watts and not surge watts! Also like the fact that it comes with a battery maintainer so I don't have to worry about the batteries.

Very nice generator. We needed a generator with a 50amp plug-in. This fits well foe off grid living as a backup system to recharge our solar battery storage when the weather is cloudy, raining and snowing. It give a great jump to our battery system. It easily starts with the electric start and remote start as well. Haven't had to use the pull start, but I assume it will be easy too.

Recently ordered this Westinghouse generator and am very satisfied with it so far. I haven’t put any load to it but I am very happy with the build quality and documentation that’s included. The quick guide is easy to follow and I was able to set it up in no time. The other docs included are very thorough also describing parts, maintenance schedules, etc. The remote start is pretty cool too. It is heavy, but once you get the wheels on it roles around just fine. It’s also pretty loud but that’s expected with generators of this type so not complaining, just noting. Bottom line I think it’s worth the money and will last us a long time.

After Hurricane Helene destroyed South Georgia, I ordered this generator. It was delivered and I set it up today. Very easy to use and pretty fool proof. Make sure you have another quart of oil on hand as the oil needs to be changed after the first 5 hours of running. Also, a magnetic dipstick would be a good investment as generators do not have oil filters.

I bought this generator to power my home in case of an outage. I haven't had the chance to use it under a full house load yet but i can tell its going to be awesome. I did some testing with high draw power tools and it didn't even whimper under those loads. Looking forward to the next power outage. This generator is awesome. Don't hesitate... get one of these.

Bought the 9500DFc to run my home during power outages. Just finished the 5-hour breakin. Instructions were clear and after putting in the fluids it started without any struggle on the first try with the remote fob. During breakin, I had a freezer, a refrigerator, and halogen work lights connected to it. I also operated a 12-inch chop saw and a pool water pump. No issues. It was surprisingly easy to move around the garage, too. I feel confident it will meet my needs during the next prolonged power outage.
