Bought last month but haven't had to use it yet during a power outage. Very easy to get set up(helps to have a strong grandson). Started on my 1st attempt, runs smoothly and relatively quiet. Oil fill could be a bit more convenient. Nothing missing and can be moved about relatively easy, even for an 80 yr old man. Very happy so far but willing to wait for the power failure to put it to the ultimate test. My electrician was impressed.

The generator arrived without incident and the delivery agent placed it in my garage as requested. A suggestion for the instructions... when unpacking it is helpful to slit the box at all 4 corners and that allows a cardboard cushion for tipping the generator on end to install the 2 feet and the wheels. This save wrestling with the weight of it. The assembly including adding oil went well. Connecting the battery was as simple as placing the connector together. The startup worked perfectly and the remote setup worked as documented. Connecting a 50 amp power cable to the generator was a bit of a tussel given the diameter and close clearance between the socket and the wheel but everything came together and functioned perfectly. The next step will be a load test to determine exactly which household circuits I can energize refrigerator, water heater, a/c units etc and the associated trade offs. Overall I am pleased with my purchase and the installation. The generator could be a little quieter but for the price we will put up with the noise... can't speak for the neighbors of course. I hope this is an insurance policy against having a hurricane show up on our doorstep.

Just got my new Westinghouse, it's an upgrade for me. Haven't had to use it yet, but love the push button start and especially the dual fuel capabilities. We'll see what the weather gods have in store for us. Perfect shape out of the box, added oil and hooked up the propane. Fired right up. Gave it 4 stars because I haven't used it yet. My friends bought one too

I bought this generator for backup power when the local power grid goes down, which it frequently does during bad weather. So glad I did! It basically powers our whole house! Everything from the well pump to the fridge, even the hot water heater! I love the 6.6 gallon tank, it means I can fill it before bed and sleep knowing it will still be running in the morning. The remote start is also nice in cold weather, I can start it from the window and it will be already warmed up and ready by the time I go out to hook it up. I would definitely recommend this generator.

Well packaged and assembly of the two feet and wheels took less than five minutes with the provided wrench. Added oil and fuel and connected the battery and followed the start up instructions. It started up on the second try with the electric start. Runs quieter than another brand of generator I owned before handles the electrical load very well. Very satisfied.

I bought this a week ago and I am so pleased with it so far. I received it earlier than expected, the box was not damaged in any way and everything was in order. All the paperwork was included manuals and all were easy to read with easy to follow instructions. The process of installing the wheels and the feet was easier than I expected and was done with it in just a few minutes with minimal effort and tools. I am ashamed to say that I almost cannot wait for a power outage to put it to the big test. I am confident with what I have seen and experienced that this is absolutely the best choice for the price. Thank You Westinghouse for a great product that meets and exceeds expectations.

A tornado followed by a derecho—and a week-long power outage convinced me the farm needs to be ready “the next time.” My WGen 9500DF gives me the confidence that now, I’m ready. Ruggedly built, easily understood operating and safety procedures are very clear in the instruction manual. I intend to purchase and an optional ST switch.

We just recieved our generator this morning with only a couple days waiting for delivery.....Un-boxing the unit was a breeze and everything is well marked ..Assembly was a snap....The key fob start was in a great place on the engine pull cord ...put oil and fuel in the unit and it started right up ....Cant wait for the next power outage because we have it covered ....the 50 amp rv outlet is a great added bonus...always had to run a 30 on our old generator....

I purchased the 9500/12500DFc Generator about 10 days ago. It was simple to set up and works amazingly! Haven't put a full load through it yet. Electrician is coming in a couple of days to install transfer switch and base on the power, it should run most of my household items including A/C. Looking forward to seeing all it can do. I feel prepared for any emergency situation now...peace of mind!

Bought for the summer hurricane season here in Texas. Started right away. It is heavy but the wheels help. This is something I don’t plan on using or moving around all the time. Even the key fob worked right away. I plan to start it up monthly and let it run for about 10 min just to keep things flowing. Looking forward to using it if I need to! FYI- I comes with oil but the engine oil tank is empty upon arrival. It will take the entire quart of oil that comes with it.
