I made the right choice!

I came very close to purchasing a less expensive, gasoline generator last week. In fact, if they hadn't been out of stock, I probably wouldn't be leaving this review. I cannot begin to tell you how glad I am that they were. My new WGen9500DF is absolutely amazing. The quality and features of this generator are second to none. The dual fuel option is an absolute must if like me, you're purchasing a generator as part of your emergency preparedness plan. I'm a retired Firefighter with 37 years of service. I thought about getting a generator many times, but never seemed to get around to it. The events of the last few months have made me realize that a quality, reliable generator is a must to help ensure the health and safety of those you love.

Great Generator

I just purchased and did a trial run. It was an easy set up and I was able to run my 4 ton AC and air handler, several lights, two refrigerators, garage doors, some receptacles, and one electric burner on cooktop. My hot water heater drew too much amperage, so if I need to use that, I would just need to switch off the AC for a little bit. Total amperage on A phase was 35 amps and total amperage on B phase was 25 amps. With a 40 amp generator main breaker, I still have a little room left to turn a few more things on.

new purchase

Just received shipment of this Wgen9500df generator. Assembly was very easy and only required minutes. Once oil and fuel were added, I connected the quick-attach wire socket to supply battery power . Turned fuel valve on, battery toggle on, tried remote start first.Cranked and ran like a new machine should. Tested all outlets with droplight and everything seems ok. Although I haven't used it as a power source as of yet, this unit seems to be in good working condition and should supply plenty of power to my house for all necessary needs. Arrived cosmetically good other than a cross member brace between front and rear roll cage near gas tank location. Brace was pushed in toward gas tank, but barely missed the tank. Would need pulling force to straighten back, but don't want to force it due to breaking spot welds on each end. Ran smooth, no vibration and stayed in place. Would have rather had hard rubber tires instead of plastic, but overall, a nice unit. However, we'll see when it's put to use. I recommend turning the gas valve off and letting the engine stop once all fuel has burned out of carburetor to help prevent sludge forming in bowl . Of course fuel additive is necessary in all conditions since ethanol came along ! ( Just another brilliant idea from our so-called " govt. and oil industry EXPERTS" !!!!!! )

Excellent Equipment

Bought this after a recent power outage that lasted several days. One of my friends had one of these units and he was very pleased with the performance. So was I after another power outage that resulted in my using this generator over night. It was very easy to set up and worked flawlessly. The large fuel tank made it convenient for the long hours of operation. This is definitely an excellent piece of equipment.

Easy setup and starting

We just had a huge storm that knocked out power for 3 days. I decided I am not going through that again. I did a bunch of research and for the price point this is the best option for a lot of power 9500 - 12500 watts. Ill be able to run most everything should we lose power again. Its a solid unit and setup up to run was a matter of 30 minutes.

Great Features

Easy to set up. Heavy but easy to move around once the wheels are on it. Awesome features. Love the dual fuel option, the push to start and the remote start options. The outlets have nice rubber covers for protection. I have a Generac HomeLink manual transfer switch system so I'll be connecting this Westinghouse generator using its L14-30A. outlet.

SAVED THE DAY!!!!!!!

After three hurricanes w multiple days without power, I had to get a generator. This model was a great value and met our power requirements during our last storm (MILTON24). We came home to a dark house. The generator started easily and got us back running with no loss of food in the refrigerators. Additionally I recommend setting yourself up to just plug it into your power panel and run the whole house (110V systems only)

Peace of Mind Generator!

My husband researched several generators, including this one, which was also recommended by the electrician who installed the transfer switch. He loved the tri-fuel feature as well as it's easy start-up and many other features that other brands don't have. It's heavy, but fairly easy to move around with the wheels., and with it being a 12500 watt, it will be able to handle quite a bit in our home should we need it to. Here in Florida, we feel much more secure knowing we have it ready to go at a moments notice.

New generator

Just started the generator up for the first time. I'm running it on propane. Followed the instructions and it did exactly what the manual detailed. Started up on it's 3rd auto attempt and ran smoothly for about 10 minutes with no load. I'll be trying it to run the water well pump this afternoon. So far so good!

Nice Features

I bought this a month ago, and haven't had to use it yet, but so far I like all of the features that it has. The remote seems nice so I wont have to go outside to start it. The buttons, levers, and control panel is nicely labeled so I can find everything.
