Great shipping. Excellent price. A must have

My electrician recommended this unit after installing a generator transfer switch in my panel. Profesional done, up to code with the breaker bar that doesnt allow the generator switch and mainbreaker to be on at the same time. For a fraction of the price and some leg work, i can keep my essentials running in the event we lose power. Peace of mind.

The ideal backup generator for my home

This Westinghouse product (WGen9500DF Dual Fuel Portable Generator) was recommended by the electrician who hooked up the plug for the portable generator to our breaker box. I was scouting a few other models and when I listed them for the electrician, he said, "No. No, no, no, no. You want the Westinghouse. Not those other ones." I know that Westinghouse is a great name brand, a legacy brand, so it was not difficult for me to take the electrician’s recommendation. I am sure glad I did.
It was important to get one with LOTS of power, and this model has plenty. You can barely hear the unit surge when I turn on more and more breakers and give it more load. The WGen9500DF can handle all that I throw at it. I even turned on a few extra things, plugging them into garage plugs. No problem. This unit runs all the lights and plugs in my family room, so we will not lose internet service when the power goes out; all the lights upstairs and in the master bedroom and bath; everything in the kitchen (including fridge and stove); and the garage fridge and other outlets in there. And, of course (and, most importantly) it easily handles my home's furnace, well pump, and ejector pump. I basically have EVERYTHING I need on in the house ... and could probably plug in a window AC if I needed to in a heat wave. Hopefully, I will not have to attempt that, but I’m sure this generator can handle it.
The unit is easily maneuverable. Without gas in the huge 6.6-gallon tank, I can move it out of the garage, over some grass, and over a little hump to get it on the back patio. It might need to use two hands if it is filled with gas ... which is why I am glad this thing is DUAL FUEL. I can't emphasize enough how important it is to be able to run this on gasoline or propane. You're going to need that flexibility one day and will be glad you have it. The ability to switch between fuels is as easy as turning a dial. The remote start/stop is also super convenient.
If you are looking for a portable generator to restore power to the essentials in your house, and maybe even a little more, this is the unit for you. It's a little loud, but not much louder than a power washer. In fact, that's what my neighbor thought I was running when she heard it going on my first test. Now she's going to come over and check out my generator and will probably buy the same one.
Highly recommended.
