I purchased this one cause will pretty much run everything in our home. Not only that the unit has great reviews. Not all at once but will most of it. Also this one is advertised to run 12 hours at 50% load on 6.6 gal fuel. All others of same size runs no more than 9 or maybe 10 hours. Westinghouse name and products has been around for long time also. Unit looks great and seems to be well built. Has Cast Iron Sleeve to reduce Cylinder wear is a plus.
We purchased this generator for use during power outages during hurricanes and other surprise outages. (Such as the February freeze!) We are very pleased with the power that this generator has and I especially like the remote start feature!
This generator is large enough to run our entire house when power goes out. Hiring Electrician to install transfer switch for safety and ease of function. Easy to hook up and starts easily. Superior product!
This is my second Westinghouse product (my first was their pressure washer). I am very satisfied with both products. The WGen9500DF started up and was purring in no time. An added benefit I wasn’t expecting is that it runs quieter than the Generac it is replacing. The remote start feature and digital readout places this product ahead of competitive products. Besides the usual running time meter, the digital display provides voltage, frequency, and maintenance reminders. I researched just about every brand in the market and happy that I decided on the Westinghouse. Based on my recommendation, three of my friends just bought the same Westinghouse generator.
Bought this unit 8 days ago. Have broken in per instructions, all went as it should have no problems. Further use will give an idea of longevity, which shouldn't be a problem if it is taken care of. No problem as far as shipping damage or missing items.
Purchased this unit because I trust the Westinghouse brand and because it was a good price. Pleasantly surprise the setup was easy and the unit started right up. Only negative was the level of noise, but that is expected with this type of generator.
