Great dual fuel generator

I just got the generator delivered and it's the best one I've owned (replacing my old one for one I can hook up to my new 50 Amp generator hookup I had added to my electrical panel). Setup was easy and a quick trial run went effort less. The remote start is great as I normally only need the generator when its cold and snow or sleet brought down the powerlines. This saves me having to go out to stop / start the generator. I also love the dual fuel capability since it means I don't have to worry about cleaning any carburators.

Great generator

Tis is our second Westinghouse Generator. We had the same one when we lived in Michigan and had it wired to the fuse box. It ran everything that we needed during power outages. Now we live in Florida and the power went out during Hurricane Helene and we did not have a generator. Ordered this right after. Just got and now hurricane Milton is almost here. Pretty sure this will come in handy.

Works like a charm

I bought this to power my house when the electricity goes out. The assembly was straight forward. It's very heavy so you have to use a hoist or someone to help lift it off of the pallet. I bought this to run on propane. My only gripe is the switch to select gasoline or propane is poorly illustrated.

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.

Impressive Features and Build Quality!

I recently purchased the Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment 12,500 Peak Watt Generator, and while I haven't had the chance to use it yet, I'm already impressed with its features and overall build quality. Powerful Specs: With 12,500 peak watts and 9,500 running watts, this generator promises to handle any power needs, from home backup during an outage to outdoor events or job sites. The specs are impressive, and I'm confident it will perform well when I need it. Easy Start: The electric push-button start is a great feature, making it incredibly convenient to get up and running quickly. This is a huge upgrade from the traditional pull-start models I've used before.t is a heavy generator, but easily manageable once the wheels are mounted. I didn't find the noise level to be any different than other generators of this size or wattage. They did a very good job with the owners manual. I liked that there are instructions on how to unbond the neutral for applications such as connecting to your power inlet. I also liked the confirmation that recreation fuel or ethanol free gas, is perfectly acceptable if available. I completed the break-in process and tested the generator connection to my house. Everything is looking good! I'm read

Easy to Use

I bought this generator to replace a 20-year-old one. How far generators have come. Having the battery starter and the ability to switch between gasoline and propane really will be helpful during an extended outage. So far everything has worked as advertised.

Awesome generator!

The product assembly was easy, the shipping was prompt, and the instructions for start up were well written. The duel fuel is a life saver incase the gas stations are without power. The generator started up easily with the push button start and ran excellent. I am excited to use this product when the time comes... and that is saying something. I think this generator is the best bang for your buck

Burn in went well

It is heavy so be sure you have assistance or it stays on the pallet until you are ready to install the wheels. It was delivered in a rain storm and everything inside was soaked including the manual, but the unit was fine. Worked great with propane for the 5 hour burn in. I did a NG setup as well and that also worked great. I haven't had to use it in a real life scenario yet, but seems like it will do the job.

Great Features!

Great experience using it so far. Everything is labeled well and self-explanatory in how to operate the generator. Super easy to start with the touch of a button. It is quiet when running. Very easy to move around. I recommend using a set of ramps to load it into the back of a truck, as it is too heavy for one person to lift.

Highly Recommended Generator

After doing quite a bit of research. I decided on the Westinghouse WGen9500DFc. I'm very happy with the purchase. Getting it up and running was pretty simple and user friendly. I highly recommend a generator with the Duel Fuel feature. It runs great using either gas or propane. And switching from one to the other is seamless. Love the remote start and push button starting capability. It's great to get your generator started with the push of a button, and not having to pull your shoulder out. The control panel is easy to see and readily accessible. After seeing mine, my neighbor bought the same model. It's an excellent generator, I highly recommend it.
