Just purchased this generator. When I opened the box I was pleasantly surprised to see that this generator was somewhat small and lightweight being a 9500 running watt. I assembled the generator and added oil. Fired right up with the remote start. This will be great for my fiancé who would not be able to start the generator otherwise. It also has so automatic choke; so no need to worry about that. I would say this generator is about as close as you can get to a whole house unit and still has the option of being portable. Highly recommend. I am also an E-2 electrician. Side note...ran my dryer no problem through my 30amp transfer switch. Just wouldn't recommend running anything along side it.

Bought this unit to serve as a backup to our rural mountain house. Right out of the box, with less than 5 minutes assembly time, I connected it to a fuel source and it started right up! Time will tell, but with the Westinghouse name, I have all the confidence that it will serve our needs with ease.

Received this morning. Was able to get it fully set up and operating in less than thirty minutes. Initial start and run was using propane. No issues. Connected to Gentran connection and was able to feed my panel with no issues. Performing a full test with loads tomorrow.

Just received my new WGEN9500DF. I am very happy with the new purchase. Remote start, with battery disconnect and charger. After having 8 degree temps and my 13 year old generator circuit board giving up, I am very happy to have the security and power this generator will provide. All for a very reasonable price. This generator should power my whole house including AC. I know I will need to turn off my septic and water well, but we can alternate these needs. Thanks Westinghouse

I purchased this as a source of power during outages. My last generator died after 12 years of service. A different brand. I chose this for the name Westinghouse and the advancements over my previous one. My last was bare bones. So far my choice seems great for all that I got the price seemed right although I haven't had a power outage yet I did run it thru my test and so far all seems good I like the multi fuel and starting features the layout is smart and well designed. One final note sounds silly but the handle is well done some I looked at you could only pull and not push made it awkward for where I store mine when not in use

I purchased this generator to hook up to our home, as a power backup. I had previously installed a 30amp breaker and outlet, to use our sons generator, which is rotting away in our shed. His generator is very difficult to pull start and unreliable. According to my wife, there was no way she would be able to start it, should I be hurt or unavailable. This is a wonderful step up. What I Like: It is VERY easy to start. Has a large push button start that activates the engine immediately. Has a remote start Key FOB that worked from our windowless basement, 12 feet down and 25 feet away from the generator. (It is where our electric panel is located.) Outside Noise level is acceptable, no louder than a log splitter or mower. After putting a gallon of gas in I tried to start it. It cranked, however did not start. Added another gallon of gas and we were, Off to the Races. Started & Worked Perfect. I disconnected the 'Bonded Neutral," since we are plugging directly to the house, and the house circuit box is grounded. Comes with all the accessories needed to get up and running including a Battery Charger! Did require a little more oil than provided. Very pleased with this purchase. We have a large home; well pumps, sewer pumps, circulating pump for tap water, outdoor wood burning furnace with underfloor heating installed, which requires additional water pumps. And of course refrigerators, furnace fan and lighting.This generator can easily handle the load. I do not think we will be washing and drying clothes during a power outage, so I am not considering that option. The manual was very helpful. It depicts exactly how to 'unbond the neutral,' on the generator. Very smart to have included both a 30amp & 50amp plugin on the generator. I can use our existing 30 amp outlet. I have run 6 gauge wire and will be hooking up a 50amp outlet..

I bought this because it had everything i needed and then some. great options and love the duel fuel option as a great backup. Im going with 4 stars because the box came with oil leaked all over the side and the generator was covered as well. also had a dent on the top. A little irritated that I spent over 1k and have to deal with the little things like this.

I am pleased with the generator it came as promised and was a good price for what it is. I have not run the generator yet just put oil in and installed the wheels and feet. I will gas it up when it need to be used. The instructions was clear and easy to understand.

We bought this generator after Beryl, in preparation for the next storm / outage. I like the features. I like that it is dual fuel. Tri-fuel seemed like overkill, and the third fuel is the least efficient and provides the least amount of wattage. We want it to be a temporary generator, but plan to have an electrician install an outlet that will allow us to plug it into our home for at least partial home coverage. First thing I noticed at the store. This thing is HEAVY. I mean real heavy. I'm no weakling, but my 21 yr old ex-high school middle linebacker son and I struggled to pick it up. Once it's assembled, moving it isn't super hard, but might be for a small woman or an elderly person. The good news is, it might be harder for thieves to simply carry off. I made sure to read the manual. Didn't want to screw it up. I attached the battery cable. I put in the provided 10W-30 oil. I even ran it for the recommended "No Load" break-in time. I put 1 gallon of fresh gasoline in it and just let it run dry. It ran for about 2 hours (with no load). The tank will hold 6.6 gallons of fuel. With average load, it is supposed to run about 8 hours on a full tank. Once everything was ready to go, I pressed the start button and it started up on the first try. There was a brief delay that worried me, but it started right up after that (about 2 seconds). This particular generator got pretty good reviews and had around a 4.5 start rating. I like the features it has. It seems well-made. I can only hope that it lasts for years to come.

I bought this generator for small home backup - fridge, freezer, well pump, water heater, etc.... It will not run my A/C or HVAC but I have an electric heater already so I'm good. Easy to setup out of the box, you may need help as it's decently heavy to get out of the box. But setup was a breeze, took my time - 20 min tops. Easy to start - 3 ways - remote, electric or pull. Not nearly as loud as I thought and easy to move with the handle and wheels. I highly recommend. Just waiting for electrician to install my transfer switch and I'm good to go.
