we are preparing for the future. I researched a lot of generators and liked all the features and great reviews on this one. Quality is great! Thank you Westinghouse.
I lost power for 2 days and I needed to borrow a generator from a freind. It happened to be a Westinghouse WGen9500DF. I loved it so much I purchased one for myself. I really liked the dual fuel option most. I do not know how often I'll use it, but I'm sure glad I have it.
The unit came in perfect shape, not a scratch or dent. Basically just had to add oil and go. Started up with electric start with no issues. Only tested with minor load for an hour, as I just got the unit, but still was impressed with the easy assembly, good design, and immediate operation.
Operational features are easy to use and having a remote device to start up the generator is a plus. The generator can be moved around easily with the wheels attached. Yes, there is noise, but not as loud as I anticipated. The one suggestion I would make is to specify the amount of oil to use. One quart was provided, but it required 1 1/2. The manual didn't indicate the amount.
Got it out of the box In perfect condition. The instructions were clear and precise. Tons of cool features...Auto style push button start, charger for the battery, tools to assemble, they thought of everything. Pushed the start button and it fired right up! Can't wait for the power to go out!
Unit started right up on propane. I had to wiggle the wheels into place since the generator frame was severely bent upon delivery. Also had to re-attach some parts since they fell off in delivery. Unit was surprisingly quite than I would have expected.
