Fits my needs perfectly

I bought this to provide power to my whole house, replacing a small inverter generator that I was using to power up a small window A/C unit and a few small appliances. My home is set up for natural gas so getting a tri-fuel model was high on my list. After researching various brands, I settled on the Westinghouse 9500TFc as it is the only generator in this size that provides a 50A plug. I also like the fact that it can be remote started and weighs only about 200 lbs. The large wheels and foldable handle make it easy to move around with only one person. I have yet to actually use it beyond the initial break-in period. The only small annoyance is the user manual which leaves a lot to be desired. Fortunately for me, there are plenty of how-to videos online.

Worth the wait

We live in California where we can’t rely on our power grid in both summer and winter. I’ve been waiting to purchase the 9500df since last summer but it had been out of stock every time I tried to purchase. I looked at other manufacturers but happy I waited. Works great and has enough power to power our whole house with a/c plus the 6 freezers.

Did alot of research

After winter storm Uri hit TX we did a lot of research into a generator that would power our needs without blowing our budget or putting us in debt. This model runs our home, refrig and 3 freezers... we are wise with ac/dishwasher/washer/dryer use (not everything going at the same time). The features of this generator mean my wife or I will be able to easily power up when we are the electrical grid fails us. Bring on hurricane season. We are prepared and love our generator!

Very Nice Generator!

Easy to operate. The remote start is a very nice feature. Instructions are simple and it starts right up every time. Overall quality seems fantastic. One thing i would like is a battery disconnect switch instead of manually disconnecting it, but its still incredibly simple. highly recommend!!!

love the built in battery trickle charge

living in the backcountry of san diego we are subject to loss of electricity when there is a threat of wildfire. this is going to keep us in electric power no matter what the utility does to us. we have a 2700 square foot home with AC, well pump, booster pump and a mechanics setup in the 3 car garage and this generator is capable of keeping everything going. especially nice is the ability to watch tv into the night and simply shut down the generator with the remote rather than having to shlep outside in the dark and cold to manually shut it down.

Started right up on propane fuel

I followed the directions and got the unit assembled. It started right up on propane. I did a test run and put a 1500 watt load on the unit which it handled fine. I noticed the schematic in the Instruction Manual was incorrect for my unit…manual revision as listed on the back was WGen9500DF Rev01 121257 Rev05 1/21.

High Quality Generator

Generator arrived in excellent condition. Minor assembly was required, but very easy to complete with tools provided. Time will tell, but this looks like it was an excellent purchase--hopefully will power essential appliances in our home in case of power outage.

Ease of use

I bought this just in time, I put off unboxing it, then I unexpectedly needed it during a power outage. I was able to cut the box open set everything up in no time, by myself with only a flashlight from cutting the box open to wheeling it outside, it took me about an hour. Put the wheels/legs on, oil in, gas in, plug the battery in, good to go! Once connected it didn't bog down at all and I'm running a 50amp service. There's a lot of brands out there, but Westinghouse definitely gives you a great bang for your buck.

Perfect

I recently bought this model in anticipation of power outages due to severe weather. Living in SW Florida I was without power for 11 days due to hurricane Irma in 2017. After reading the many positive reviews I determined that this model would power my 3 ton AC, refrigerator, TV and some small appliances. The day that it arrived I unboxed it and followed the start up instructions. Started up immediately, let it run a bit, plugged in some electrical tools to test. Works great! To be honest I hope I never need to use it but I have it now for peace of mind.

Balanced Specs for a Tri Fuel Generator

I have not tried it out but specs look good. Nice to have multiple power options for different situations. I would like liked to have known the size of the natural gas insert plug and disconnect connector (1/2 inch) to get the right size quick connection for my home natural gas line
