We bought this Generator for the upcoming Winter season and for any power outages that may become a surprise. This Generator is a BEAST! Ran some tests with it and took it like a champ! Construction and Quality look outstanding! I have read reviews about Westinghouse and they are in my opinion # 1 over the other brands out there. This Generator will give me a peace at mind for years to come.
I bought this generator about 3 weeks ago to complete my project of being able to power my house whenever there are power outtages. In Michigan, it seems to become more frequent. I owned a Subaru Robin 400 and it was a great machine, but it could not power the whole house, it was heavy as heck, and I had to use a power drill to start it (pull rope broke). I asked around and my buddy suggested getting a Honda, but Honda's are really expensive. The one I wanted to power my home was almost 4K! I looked at the The Predator 8500, and has high ratings, and a "knock off" version of the Honda. So, I researched generators and the Westinghouse kept popping up. I like the easy install, the dual fuel option, and electric start. This bad boy started on the second button push. The 9500DF can power my whole home and nowhere near as loud nor as heavy as my old school Subaru Robin (much respect). Great buy. I am very, very, pleased.l
Live in country on well water. Bought to power house if we lose power and have running water. Price was great and fast delivery. Have not ran yet but will update review after first use.
I bought this in June of 2021 and received it in August of 2021. I have lots of older trees around the house and above ground power lines, so its nice to have. The quality of the generator parts seems great, but the frame welds and finish could use improvement. The hole that the wheel bolt goes through had some burs that prevented the bolt from going through. A quick filing removed the burs, but for this price, it seems like the quality should be better. That's my only complaint! I'd give it an A-
