Solid unit, filled with oil and gas, plugged in the battery and it fired right up. Outputs steady voltage and will come in handy during any power outage.
The Westinghouse WGen9500DF is a generator you’ll love to own! Shipped quickly after placing order. Very easy setup, with great instructions. We like that is has the option of using gas or can use propane. Very sturdy, made very well. We set it up, and started right after receiving with no problems at all!
We just moved to Northern Michigan from a town that rarely had power issues. We have been here 2 months, and already have had 2 outages. As I'm writing this review, the generator is running EVERYTHING. I'm so glad I have this right now, new neighbors are stopping by, and wondering why my house is the only 1 lit up.
Great generator. We had an electrician wire it in to run our house in the event of a power outage. Even though it is not an inverter, we have not had any problems with our electronics as of yet.
I bought this after the winter storms in Texas. I've tried it a couple of times to make sure it works and I'm really impressed with it. It powers the house with no problem, with enough extra to run a few extras. The control panel has plenty of room to plug in equipment as well.
Too early to fully review, will come back once I use. Only disappointment so far is the amount of scuffing on the painted parts. Obviously rubbed too much during shipping. Even looks like a poor factory touch up of frame. It's matte black, but touch up was glossy.
This generator had all of the features that I was looking for to use as a home backup power source, with the dual fuel capability being at the top of the list. It has a large fuel tank and it is very easy to switch between propane and gasoline. The electric start is also a very nice convenience.
