Tri-Fuel versatility, powerful, and portable

I installed this as a whole house backup using a transfer switch. I wanted a Tri-Fuel generator so I could hook it up to the natural gas line when using it as a backup generator, but also use gas or propane if I needed to use it remotely. It is big enough to back up all the important circuits in my house (except for the Air Conditioning Compressor) and still small enought to load into my pickup (by wheeling it up a loading ramp) to take with me when needed. The simple fuel selection dial provides three different fuel options out of the box in case a lengthy power outage makes fuel hard to find.

Had everything I was looking for!!!

We were hit by 2 hurricanes and 1 ice storm last year and was without power for a total of 25 days. I wanted a generator that could run on dual fuel to extend my run time if needed. This generator fitted my needed perfectly. The set-up was very easy; I'm a 4'11 retired female and I was able to complete it without help. The larger wheels allow me to move the generator around easily and even up a 5" ramp for storage. I love the remote start; it will be great during cold weather. Getting this generator has given me peace of mind for the upcoming years with the unpredictable weather we have been having.

EXCELLENT BUY

This WGen9500 electric generator is what the publications say, it has everything necessary for the cases of electrical emergencies, for use in heavy work activities or even for moments of family fun. It has a very robust structure, the motor is designed to last over time, the electrical part has a very friendly design and easy use, where the electronic ignition of the generator stands out. It covers all the expectations that I had when buying this generated Westinghouse

Works Great

I received the generator last Monday morning, unpacked it, put it together added the oil and gas and it started right up. I then ran it for about an hour and sounded great. On Tuesday I received a transfer switch and over the next few days wired the house circuits that I wanted then when I finished Thursday with wiring up the transfer switch I plugged the 30 amp cord to the generator and started it up. After it ran for about 3 minutes I switched over the house circuits to the generator. I had my well pump, furnace, refrigerator, window unit AC, kitchen and dining room lights, MBR lights all on, 2 TV's, computer workstation, chicken coop with heat lamps on and all worked great. I ran it that way for 3 hrs. without a hiccup. Needless to say I'm very pleased with this unit

Excellent product, great price.

I purchased the WGen9500DF to power my 50-amp travel trailer. I was very pleased with the minimal assembly and easy start-up, fresh out of the box. I enjoy the dual fuel option, and the remote start is an added bonus. I am really looking forward to putting this product to use this summer.

Electric start is game changer

We are now in our 70s and this electric start is a game changer. No more pulling that darned rope! Also, the fact that it’s duel fuel -gasoline or propane- gives us peace of mind that we’re always ready. Overall, a very nice generator at a great price. Thank you.

One ridiculous issue that should be fixed.

So the good first. My electrician ran a 50 amp breaker and tied it into the whole house. I thought I would need to select important ones and set it up that way. He said no this should run your whole house providing you don't go crazy meaning use a little common sense and not overdo it. So of course me being the procrastinator that I am I didn't set up the generator until the power went out. The set up is pretty easy and I got the thing up and running. I went inside turned the main breaker off. Started the generator went back in and through my 50 amp breaker on and we were in business. It ran for 2.5 hours until the power went back on. To my way of thinking I won't store gasoline for the generator. First thing I did was run the generator on propane to get it going. If I thought this was to be a long outage I would have went and bought gasoline also. Everything ran perfect on propane the heat, lights, two refrigerators freezers so I was very pleased with the performance. Now for the bad. There is no reason I can think of to have the 50 amp outlet on the generator impeded by the unfortunate placement of the wheel. The 50 amp extensions cord is very thick and was in the garage which made it very difficult to plug into the generator. So difficult that I wound up breaking a little piece of the outlet by the ground lug. I don't see it being a problem holding the cord in place but I would love to get it repaired and would also like a response from WH ( that's Westinghouse not the White House) I still give the generator 4 stars although it could have been lower because of this. Therefore, if you have a 50 amp extension cord that comes down on the angle which I believe most will because of the shear weight of the cord you actually have to bend the cord between the wheel and the generator to plug it in. now that I think about it 4 stars is for sure generous because of this problem. I posted a picture and the top slot is the ground slot and that's the one that is broken although it looks pretty normal it's now larger because I chipped it because of the difficulty plugging in.

Great Generator

I bought this a week ago for when the power goes out. We lost power a few months ago for a few days and lost all the food and it was 48 in the house. We will be able to keep the food in the freezer, hot shower, and heat/AC next time we loose power.

Very impressed

Everything seems to be high quality, down to the bearings in the wheels, easy assembly and good instructions, it started right up and ran very good. I broke it in as per instructions and so far I am very impressed with the generator. So far very well pleased.
