I bought this unit a month ago. Semi Truck delivery to my home a very pleasant and helpful driver unloaded this unit from his truck with a motorized fork lift/dolly. He delivered it into my garage. Unpacking an extremely well packaged and protected item like my generator was a bit of a challenge however the effort was well worth revealing a fabulous new Westinghouse generator in perfect condition. I went through the stop procedures, minimal, plugged it into my home system and with a touch of a button was generating Low Sine 240 volts to power my entire house including my whole house AC. Only run on propane so far hate to put gas into it yet :=). Works great low noise level 74 Db especially compared to my replaced Honda EB 11000. Thank you Westinghouse.

I wanted to have one big enough to run a central AC and this foots the bill. The dual fuel will allow me to have storage options for post hurricane episodes that are safer than gasoline only. Remote start will be especially good when I have a larger propane tank.

After much research I settled on this generator. Enough wattage to run my whole house on natural gas, plus I have the options for propane and gasoline also. The low => 5%Thd was a must. the generator it replaces had 12+%, which would trip my battery backups. I have not run it yet as they are installing my natural gas line to the area of the generator tomorrow. I do not plan to put any gas in this generator unless i have to for lack NG/LPG.

Just purchased this generator for a home back-up incase of power outage. Assembly went very easy according to instructions. Oil and a funnel is included. Filled with rec 90 non ethanol fuel and hit the button. Unit started right up and ran flawlessly. Connected a drill to test power output, and it worked perfect. Now for the next northeast Ohio winter storm to put it to the real test. So far I'm impressed.

I ordered this generator to replace one I've had for fifteen years but hardly used. I am happy I did, because this one has some nice features my old one didn't like, remote start and stop, dual fuel and it is quieter then my old one. The price really good and shipping was fast and excellent.

I have yet to try it out but from all appearances it looks like a well made machine. I did a lot of research and this generator hit all the marks. I wanted a dual fuel that will power my well, 2 refrigerators, some lights, internet/TV, ect. As others have said, changing the oil will probably be a mess due to the placement of the oil drain plug but we shall see. And putting the wheels on would be kinda tough (due to the wood pallet it comes on) unless you have help lifting it off the pallet or a tractor with a bucket/hitch like I have. It was easy for me. I like the fact that it does come on a wood pallet and my generator arrived at the store in great shape. I have an electrician coming in a week to wire the house panel so I can just plug in the generator on the outside of the house. Overall I am impressed with the workmanship I can see and look forward to never having to worry about another power outage. (last one lasted 10 days)

Bought last year and we never really got a chance to use it much until last weekend's storm that hit western Washington. The unit has proven to be a workhorse operating on its 4th day. We have been able to use our oven, all kitchen appliances, kept 2 fridges and 2 freezers going, and portable electric heaters for comfort. We even got to watch a movie on Netflix on the weekend! So glad we decided to upgrade to a bigger unit with clean power so we don't have to worry about sensitive electronics.

Needed a back-up Gen set for a 3200 Sq/ft home in Texas (Hurricane alley) Received a couple of days ago and hooked up to the house to test. Ran the entire house including A/C, hot water, stove etc until I shut it off after 10 hours. Even ran the pool pump! Very happy with the purchase!

I first bought a 9500df for a welding trailer rig that I was setting up. However, I discovered that the 9500df puts out 23%THD and the welder would go in safe mode when on high settings. I contacted Westinghouse and found out that I needed the 12000df model that puts out <5% THD and costed twice as much. But it works awesome with my multi processor welder. Also, it has a "low idle" switch that isn't in the manual or shows up in the web site photos. This is a cool feature that is more for job site application so your generator idles down when it's not pulling any power.

Propane side powered 3.5 ton central air, well pump, 3 fridges, 2 upright freezers and split a/c along with household lights. Of course all did not start simultaneously. Follow power management & break-in suggestions as printed in the manual. 4 stars assigned because it was under test/ break-in conditions and not for extended time. Expect about 2.5-3 hours on 20 gallon tank.
