This unit is able to support my home electric requirements when my solar system fails because of lack of area electric power. Solar battery's are just too expensive.

One ridiculous issue that should be fixed.

So the good first. My electrician ran a 50 amp breaker and tied it into the whole house. I thought I would need to select important ones and set it up that way. He said no this should run your whole house providing you don't go crazy meaning use a little common sense and not overdo it.
So of course me being the procrastinator that I am I didn't set up the generator until the power went out. The set up is pretty easy and I got the thing up and running. I went inside turned the main breaker off. Started the generator went back in and through my 50 amp breaker on and we were in business. It ran for 2.5 hours until the power went back on. To my way of thinking I won't store gasoline for the generator. First thing I did was run the generator on propane to get it going. If I thought this was to be a long outage I would have went and bought gasoline also. Everything ran perfect on propane the heat, lights, two refrigerators freezers so I was very pleased with the performance.
Now for the bad. There is no reason I can think of to have the 50 amp outlet on the generator impeded by the unfortunate placement of the wheel. The 50 amp extensions cord is very thick and was in the garage which made it very difficult to plug into the generator. So difficult that I wound up breaking a little piece of the outlet by the ground lug. I don't see it being a problem holding the cord in place but I would love to get it repaired and would also like a response from WH ( that's Westinghouse not the White House) I still give the generator 4 stars although it could have been lower because of this. Therefore, if you have a 50 amp extension cord that comes down on the angle which I believe most will because of the shear weight of the cord you actually have to bend the cord between the wheel and the generator to plug it in. now that I think about it 4 stars is for sure generous because of this problem.
I posted a picture and the top slot is the ground slot and that's the one that is broken although it looks pretty normal it's now larger because I chipped it because of the difficulty plugging in.

Bought a WGEN9500DF for Xmas for myself. Old gas generator was just painful. What a great generator so thanks Westinghouse. Setup was simple The remote/push button start could not be any easier. Choice of gas or propane. Has all the connections I need and this unit runs my entire 330o sq ft home. Bought in November but setup this weekend with the impending East Coast storm.

I bought this when my old generator quit. The power came back on while we were unloading this one. I have ran it a few times and I love it. Especially the remote start. I am looking forward to seeing how much of the household it will run. I am very pleased so far.

Outstanding Value. Everything is metal, not plastic like most. Starts so easy with the remote. Responds to additional loads quickly, and powers right up. You will think it is pugged into the wall.
