We waited for months for this 9500DF to hit the market again. Right out of the box I added oil, plugged in the battery charger for 5 minutes uni the led became Green, hooked up my propane tank and the generator fired right up! I about a week we will have our electrician wire in our transfer switch and put her to the test. Unit is heavy and requires 2 people to load and unload safely. Also output will be reduced approximately 3.5% for every 1,000’ above sea level. So make sure select the correct size for your needs. So far excellent product! Nicholas

After my family experienced the ice storm in Victoria, TX last year, I knew I had to do better. Having a wife and three young children, I felt helpless with no water well pump, internet, septic, plugs, switches, or any type of cooking appliances available. My brother and I installed a 30A transfer plug to my panel recently. After days of researching, I decided on this generator because of all the reviews stating to buy bigger than what is needed, for a buffer. I am glad I have that comfort zone. I received it today, assembled it in 10 mins, filled with oil and gas, and pushed the start button, it started right away. I let it run for about an hour and stopped it with key fob. So far so good, very satisfied so far. I will update.

We bought this generator to ensure we would have power available during winter storms. Couldn't be happier with this gen, it was easy to set up and we like that we can run it with natural gas, propane, or gas. The remote start is also a nice feature.

We just received our new generator yesterday, it was packaged well and arrived a whole day early! We assembled the wheels and feet, no problem. We added the oil and fired her up on propane! Seemed a bit quieter than the smaller generator we had been using and we're keeping our fingers crossed that it will meet our expectation during the next power outage.

I bought this ready for winter so I've only used it a couple times for testing purposes but so it's worked as expected. It takes a bit to get it started the first time and it's best to do that on gas rather than propane but once I get it started the first time it started easily after that. The remote start/stop is nice but since I need to pull it out of the garage and hook it up I probably won't need to us it that much. I bought this because it got good ratings, the wattage will power my whole house, the price is pretty good, my local small engine shop said they could repair the engine if needed and the fact it' so fuel efficient. It's not a quite generator but for the size it's about what I'd expect and I'm only using it for power outages during winter. Hopefully it will continue to run nicely when I really need it.

I bought this generator to power my home in case of a power outage and to use with our camper on an occasional off the grid camping trip. A week after receiving the generator, I completed a 3 hour trial, running my home off the generator. It performed wonderfully, supplying more than enough power to run all our essential items, including the well pump. If we have another power outage in the future, I feel at ease now, knowing we will have a suitable back up.

I was comparing other manufacturers and the Westinghouse model fits our need for a back up power source and has a good price point. The safety features on this model are also a plus. I would recommend this product because of the value and durability.

This generator is awesome. It was perfect for us after our hurricane left us with our power for a week. We didn’t have to get gas because we were able to hook it up to our gas line to the house. It powered our giant fridge, an ac unit, some lights and power outlets. It got us through the week. Big big help.

I spent hours mulling over which generator to buy. Finally decided on the big WGen9500. This should have plenty of power for my whole house when mother nature cuts us off from the grid. Same basic dimensions as most open frame generators but it is darned heavy due to its huge capacity. It is not quiet, but similar to a 4000W other brand that it is replacing. The 30 Amp L14-30R fits with my existing long cord and wall inlet so I don't have to make any changes right away. However, in order to use all of the power I'll have to upgrade everything between the generator and the house panel. Why have 12,500 peak amps if I can't get it to the house? Setup was quick and simple. Wheel kit and feet took only a couple minutes. Filled it with oil and some gas. Connected the battery with the quick connection now included. One push of the electric start button and it was off and running. Same with the remote start fob, didn't even have to pair it with the generator. The manual start was not the first pull start. Have to give it a pretty quick yank to fire it up with the pull cord. Nice to have multiple options for starting. We'll see how it does when we lose power and really need it, but great so far. I never give 5 stars but might want to rethink that after putting this through its paces.

I bought my generator on Nov 16 2021 I wanted my family to be prepared in case we had another power outage I was very happy with the delivery and the setup was fast and simple my generator started right up and so far so good hope I wont have to use it
