Awesome portable generator

I upgraded from my 1998 Generac 5 kW portable generator to the Westinghouse 9500 W tri fuel portable generator. WOW!! Felt like I was coming out of the dark ages to modern times. Try pull starting a 10 HP engine with 30 weight oil in it, good luck when below freezing temperatures. The electric start on the Westinghouse performed flawlessly, the engine came to life almost immediately after I hooked up the propane tank with the supplied hose. I then proceeded to connect the generator to my manual transfer switch and performed a whole house test as if the utility power was out, the Westinghouse portable generator performed flawlessly. I now have the peace of mind when our utility power might be interrupted by Mother Nature when we are not expecting it. We are very happy selecting the Westinghouse 9500 Watt Tri Fuel portable generator.

Excellent machine, well built!

We bought this generator due to frequent power failures in our rural area. So far we've needed to use it twice for roughly 10 hours each time, and it performed flawlessly! It was able to keep all our essentials running (fridges, well pump, heat pump, internet etc.). We so glad we bought it. The workmanship is excellent, and it's solidly built.

Just what I was looking for

We live on the Gulf coast of Florida and were affected by hurricanes Helene and Milton, suffering power loss both times. While a smaller generator got us through, it wasn't comfortable by any means. With this size we can power everything but the air conditioner. I like the tri-fuel capability. My wife works from home and lost power means lost wages. When I'm not home, it's a lot simpler and cleaner for her to start it up on propane versus gas without being obnoxiously loud.

Plenty of power

I bought this generator first because it was American made and dual fuel which gives me twice the runtime without refueling since I can switch fuels gasoline and propane on the fly. This is very easy to do especially for my wife when I am not at home. The remote start feature is great for her on a cold day when all she has to do is flip one switch to use the other fuel

Very satisfied, in every aspect of the machine.

I went from an older generator that failed me after a hurricane to this machine and it's a beast! Very well built and with a low amount of vibrations. I bought it mostly for the propane burning capability but will use gas if I run out of the other fuel. Worked like a charm right out of the box. Very impressed with it. I hate to admit this, but can't wait for us to lose power again in the next hurricane so I can try it out in its full glory.

Peace of mind equipment

My husband found this deal he said we could not refuse. Living in Texas, we get weird, unpredictable storms that can have our power out almost 24 hours. It's nice to know if we needed to plug in our refrigerator or need to run an electric heater, we got this. Plus, if we go camping/Glamping, we have the power to turn on a fan if it's hot or have lights and power to charge up our phones or tablets. The only little complaint is that the motor is a bit loud....so have it some distance away.

A Great Generator

Perhaps one of the best ways to demonstrate a good purchase is to buy it twice. This is my second purchase of the same generator. I purchased my first Wgen9500DF for our home two years ago and this one will be available in my workshop with the same set up. They are powerful, dependable, very easy to assemble and to use. I recommend this generator. I will likely never put gasoline in the carburetor as it is so easy to connect with a propane line to my underground fuel tanks. Storing propane, which never loses its BTU capacities like gasoline, is the easier and better way.

Very Satified Customer

I've owned multiple generators over the years but this one is by far the most superior generator I've ever bought. The dual fuel option along with the remote start make it in my option the top of the line option available to purchase for home emergency power. I highly recommend to anyone unsure which option to go with if you are searching for a stand by generator.

Really Nice Generator

I am really happy I purchased this generator. The features are great. I really love the remote start since I can no longer use a pull cord to start a generator. I also like the fact it has a backup for fuel, especially in bad weather where I might not be able to get to a gas station to get gas, I have an option for propane. It is a really sturdy piece of machinery and I'm hoping to get many years of usage from it. Thank you Westinghouse I am very pleased with my purchase.
