Everything I was looking for

I bought this generator to power my home when we loose power. When I received the generator the set up was very simple. I put oil and gas in it and it started almost instantly with the push start. I ended up having to take it to a job site shortly after I got it and used it to power the whole job. It worked without any issues. I highly recommend this generator

GREAT BRAND AT A GREAT PRICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We got this generator because we live in the country and we have power outages almost weekly. This generator literally is going to save our lives and our children are going to be so happy to be able to surf the web and play video games and watch movies when everyone else in our area is in the dark. I am on life support and I really need this backup generator to be able to breathe at night when I'm sleeping I am so happy that they offered this at such an affordable price. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a generator to back up their home during an outage.

Love the features

We bought this after a hurricane wiped our electricity out for 9 days and our old champion died. Decided we wanted a heavy duty generator with all the options. My husband loved the tri-fuel options and the easy start up features. We have yet to put it to the test but it's ready for this week since we have another hurricane coming. We're confident in this generator. Putting it together was easy, put the wheels on, oil in and ready to go. I like that I can start it up alone too.

Westinghouse WGen9500DFc

I bought this generator shortly after losing power due to Huricane Milton knocking out my power for 2 days. I had breakers set up in my service box so that I can run 50AMPs to my panel when the power is out. There was minimal setup with this. Just a couple wheels, add oil and plug in the battery. The folding handle makes it easy to move around, so the weight of the generator is not an issue. I took it for a test drive. Used the remote FOB. Worked like a charm. Tried th push button start on the generator,,, also worked great. No futzing around with a choke or gasoline. I really like that I can use Propane for this and not have to worry about old gasoline left in the generator. I purchased a few 20LB tanks this will give me more than a 24 hour period of "clean running". There will be enough power here to run my AC Central Air, refridgerator and some lights! I hate to wish for a storm, but I am secretly hoping for a power outage so that I can use it.

Very nice unit!

I just purchased in November 2024, I have not used it yet as intended. I will hook it up to a 50amp wall plug installed by an electrician once it is done. It has some great features, I love the build quality and the option to use propane. This is my first generator with a battery start, I will enjoy that feature as I am not as young as I used to be. This should be plenty of power for my needs.

Multi-fuel generator for the win!

I did a lot of comparison with other brands and decided on this generator based on the features and price point. It was nice to get the hoses for natural gas and propane included on the package. This is transfer switch ready, and also have additional power outlets available. Note that even with the wheels, this generator is a little on the heavy side. This would be a great generator for your work shop or around the house/garage. Overall a great product.

Just the right everything

I chose this particular generator because of the power rating being capable of running my house and home air conditioner. I also wanted tri fuel because you never know what you can get in an emergency. It came with hoses and connections for LP and NG. I have a 4 ton air conditioner but I put a soft start on it which cuts the inrush current by 65% so it's well under the generators power rating. I bought a 100% copper cable to get the maximum power vs coated aluminum too, so I was told.

Well made and appreciate the safety features

Purchased a month ago based on reviews from other users. After unboxing it was evident that Westinghouse has good quality control and manufactures a solid product. This unit was manufactured in Vietnam. I hope I don't have to use it, but I'll be prepared if we lose as power for an extended period.

Easy to operate

I bought a Westinghouse generator a few weeks ago and luckily haven't had to use it....yet. It has an easy way to quick start it. I also love that it uses propane but can use gasoline as a back up. It should also not require a lot of maintenance. I have a transfer switch that is outside my house but with the big wheels I can easily roll it into the garage when not in use.

9500DFC -

Bought this last Nov. 2024 to ensure I have enough power to take care of the necessities during an outage especially my well pump. The dule fuel is a great option to give you flexibility of propane is gas is not available. Propane is easy to store and you do not have to worry about it getting old like gas. Just completed the break in period and installing a transfer switch with out side plug. Peace of mind when power goes out - Plug and go. I gave this a 4 rating just because I have not used it yet for an extended period of time.
