Runs my whole house

I bought this generator as a power outage backup for my home. I have a 2600-square-foot house with 2 AC units and this generator will run the entire house including both AC units on both gasoline and propane. (Haven't tested it with natural gas yet.) I did install soft start kits on the AC units to help with the startup power draw. I'm not looking forward to our next storm in south Texas, but I'm prepared for it!

Worth the money!

I purchased this generator less than a month ago. Directions were very simple and easy to understand. I had generator running in less than 15 minutes. I put it to the test on day 1. Connected my 50 amp cord to the breaker box and ran everything we needed. Generator ran 2- 12,000 btu westinghouse mini-split systems, tv, dvr, lights, fridge, microwave, well, and hot water tank without missing a beat. Great product

Happy WGen9500DFc Owner

I bought this generator last week after we had 85 mph straight line winds, and boy I'm glad that I did. It provided enough power to run the necessary major appliances, lights, etc. to get me through the 3-day power outage. Assembly and set-up was a breeze, and the flexibility that it provides by allowing you to use either gasoline or propane is an added bonus. Lots of cool features (e.g., remote start, CO sensor, etc.) for the price. Runs like a dream. A definite bargain. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful support

We did not open the generator for several months after we bought it until we actually needed it. We had a small broken piece on the propane quick connect. Support answered the phone right away and was exceptionally helpful!! We are very pleased with our generator thus far!

Great Features

I bought this unit to power the whole house, and I love the dual fuel option. This model was recommended to me by 2 different friends. This is a "BEAST" generator and many features that make the use easy. I am happy with purchase, and looking forward to a long dependable relationship.

Reliable, Powerful, and Easy to Use

The WGen9500DFc has been a game-changer for my home backup needs. It starts easily on both gas and propane, runs quiet for its size, and powers everything I need—including AC, fridge, and lights—without issue. The remote start and fuel flexibility are great features. Highly recommend for peace of mind during outages.

Easy assembly, started first time

Very happy with the generator. Assembly was easy and was limited to installing the feet and wheels, pouring in the oil (provided), connecting the battery. Poured in some gasoline (note the gas requirements) opened the fuel valve and started it . It started first time without hesitation. It runs very smoothly. I stopped and started it s few times using both the push button and the remote. Each time it started and stopped without issue. The generator is very sturdy, well made and relatively easy to move around with the handle that folds down out of the way when not in use.

Wgen9500DFc

Just received this gen last week and used it during a resent 3 day power outage to keep our freezer and refrigerator. Ran it on 20 # propane bottles. Unit started immediately and ran smoothly for many hours. Currently very satisfied but only have very limited usage.

TBD

Just received my WGEN14500TFc, I wanted the 20,000W but that was out of stock everywhere so very disappointed. Now Westinghouse is coarsing me to leave a review so I can receive my FREE 15' power strip “gift” so I am leaving them 3 stars. Deducting one star for not having my 20,000W model available to purchase and another star for coarsing me to leave a review to get the free 15' power strip cord. Will update review once I get my 14500 up and running AND when my free gift comes.

Best Deal for 50A Generator

Let me preface this by saying i purchased this along with a Westinghouse14-50P to 6-50R adapter to make a portable welding setup. I wanted a larger unit that was dual fuel to be able to use with a transfer switch setup for my house if ever needed. Out of all the available generators on the market this came with what I felt was the most features at the best price point. After assembly and adding oil and fuel the unit started up immediately with the remote (I was amazed, I thought there would be a process to pair the remote). It ran flawlessly, I could not be happier with the purchase.
