I bought the 9500 DF about a month ago. It had severe transport damages and was instantly replaced with a new generator. The 9500 DF was easy to set up and performed perfectly from the first moment on. Great feature: Dual fuel lets the generator start and run on propane and/or regular car gas without interruption.
Putting together this generator, the bolts and metal is much thicker than a different brand I purchased. They also provide a propane hose and regulator which is nice.
As an elderly veteran, I needed a reliable, simple-to-use generator here in Louisiana, where we frequently lose power. This Westinghouse 9500 has proven to be just that. I use propane, which stores well for long periods, and the remote electric start is simply a dream come true. No more yanking a recoil chord, although it has one as a back-up if necessary. Thanks Westinghouse, for building a GREAT yet simple machine. (and what little assembly it needed, was also super simple.)
