Generator was shipped and delivered on time. No damage. Easy to assemble. Cranked and ran good. Voltage checked out good. Have not used it yet, but it seems to be exactly what I wanted.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Runs like a champ

Bought this generator late last year, but was waiting to have a transfer switch installed in my home, before trying to fire up this unit. It started within 2 seconds of pressing the electric start button. It powered all selected areas from the transfer switch. I hope I never need to use my generator here in Florida, but Im confident that it will be ready when needed

Great so far

I bought this in December for emergency use at a house I'm renovating, in order to keep the furnace and sump pumps running if necessary. Haven't had to use it for that yet, but it still gets a top notch review. Easy to assemble, easy to start and works perfect out of the box. Filling the oil was a little ridiculous, the fill spout is a little too far under the controls and the included funnel isn't really big enough to get the job done. I didn't have a funnel narrow enough (and was in a hurry so didn't want to go buy one) or I wouldn't have used the supplied one; anyway I did use the supplied one and that so far is the only thing I can say is a negative about this generator. Do yourself a favor and go grab a small funnel with a long neck before you unbox the generator and you'll be good to go.

This unit does everything I need

Purchased to run the house in the event of power outage. Have used it twice already. Love the dual fuel feature. Our plan is to only use the propane feature as maintaining gas engines is time consuming and can be annoying. One nice feature is the remote start which was handy in the middle of a storm. The unit with the propane tank was set up in advance of the approaching storm. Once the power went down, flipped the mains and started the unit from inside the house. So far the generator has exceeded our expectations. Planning another purchase in the near future to run our remote power needs.

Sturdy Machine! Easy to operate!

Purchased this generator a month ago. Easy to assemble (put the wheels on, put the oil in - that's it!). Quite heavy, but with the handle and wheels, quite easy to maneuver around. Using this as a back power source for house during power outages, and as a power source when on extended camping trips. Have had to use it twice this winter already. The dual fuel feature is a godsend! Since it is not used often, I do not use gasoline in it as that would go bad over time. Hooking up the LP tank is super easy - just like hooking up a BBQ grill. Another great feature is that, during power outages, when we need the power, we can start it from inside the house with the push of a button!
Once Spring rolls around, I will be building a shelter for this generator - it's going to be around a long time!

Dual Fuel

When my Westinghouse WGen 9500DF arrived, the box was a little beat up, but I did not see any damage to the generator. The initial assembly is pretty easy and just consists of attaching the wheels and feetwith the supplied wrench. Then adding some oil (which actually comes with the generator). I connected the battery and a propane tank and was ready to go. The electric start is very nice, but I'm glad it includes the pull cord backup. The generator cranked three times as it primed then fired up. The choke is automatic, but again a manual backup exists. I plugged in three space heaters it to give it a little load and it didn't seem bothered in the least.
I love the propane option. Gas goes bad so quickly even with a stabilizer it has to constantly replaced. Propane is always usable. If the power is out at the gas station too, you can still swap a propane tank there.
