Exactly what I was looking for!

After we lost power for a week following a major storm, I decided we had to pony up for a portable generator.
The Westinghouse house brand is widely praised so I went with the biggest unit that could still fit in the corner of my garage (the WGEN12000DF was simply too big).
I have only done some initial testing, but so far this thing is very impressive! Well built, great features, and the ability to use both gasoline and propane is excellent. Also love the remote start feature.
My only negative about the WGEN9500DF is the fact that it allows up to 23% THD. I have numerous sensitive electronics so there is definitely a concern there, but otherwise this thing is excellent.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My first generator

This brand received high ratings when I was doing my research. It was fairly straightforward to assembly. The manual needs to be updated since the battery connection is now done differently since the leads are already connected to the posts. Now the wires to the battery are connected by male and female connecters half way along the lines.

Great generator!

I had been looking for a powerful generator for a while when I found this one. It was easy to setup, and it started without any issues. It has worked well every time I have used it, and I really like having the remote control to start/stop it.

Well built unit

I found this generator to be well built, and with a great feature design. Once the sturdy packing was removed, oil and fuel added, it fired right up, and ran for the burn-in without any issues. I then used it for 6 hours the next day at an event, and never even a burp. Use afterward for less continuous time it fires right up each and every time. I did a lot of research before buying, looking for a large watt unit with both gas/propane driven. It is not a choice for camping, much too large and heavy. But for job site or home backup use, I would highly recommend this beast.
