I took delivery of the generator three days ago. When I opened the box I noticed the wheel kit was missing. I called Westinghouse and clicked through the normal phone prompts, and was disconnected. I tried this several more times, and was again disconnected each time. I guess they don't answer the phone on Saturdays.
Upon further inspection of the generator box, I found the wheel kit was actually in the box. This was embarrassing. Nevertheless, I unboxed the generator and was quite impressed with the build quality. I was also impressed with the attention to detail Westinghouse had with everything, from the assembly process to the thorough owners manual.
After filling with oil and fuel, the engine fired up on the first try. Very impressed! Nice work guys. I hope my long-term impressions are as good as my initial ones.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’ve been wanting a dual fuel generator since hurricane zeta left us without power for 5 days. A friend of mine has the 9500df and is exactly what I need to power my house during power outages.

Best generator ever

It has a lot of power the support a house during the power outage without breaking bank, very portable and dual fuel option is awesome, I ran out of gasoline in the middle of the night and swapped to LPG tank which I can keep so many of them in my garage for years without any trouble and save the night. Noise not bad for that power output level, remote start is nice.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Caught my Eye at First Sight

This model caught my eye from first sight. The price was right. I really liked the way it looked. Westinghouse is a well-known brand that goes way back for me. Then I started comparing other brands and that’s what really hooked me. This model had all the bells and whistles at a more reasonable price. I read a few reviews and they also spoke well of this model. Bottom line, I am so glad I stuck with my first choice. The Westinghouse WGEN9500DF.
The front panel has covers for all the outlets. Big plus. I learned from other users that dual fuel is a feature to look for. This unit had it. The handles make it easier to move this 220-pound beast of a machine. I can move in in and out of my shed with not a lot of effort or cause for concern.
I fired it up yesterday. It worked out of the box. I even cranked it up by hand and that went well. I hooked it up to my circular saw and a lamp. In a couple of weeks, I’ve got a licensed electrician coming by to connect it to my house electric panel via Reliance Pro Trans 2 50 Amp generator transfer switch.
I’m confident it will handle the 8000-watt load I plant to throw at it without breathing too heavy. This baby maxes out at around 12,500 watts. So, I’ve got room to spare. I will run it in the back yard and connect it to my panel by the front of the house via a 75-foot 50 amp, 6 awg cable.
My plan is to run it every time I mow my lawn. I will try to fit in a full-house power transfer every quarter to make sure my plan is sound.
I am so happy with this purchase.

Hurricane proof!
on March 21, 2021
Posted by: BePrepared1
from Houston, Texas
The Winter Storm Uri event got me off of go on a generator. After refitting and re-wiring the house for this generator we are now hurricane proof! The workmanship is good, it looks like a well put together unit. We did a disaster drill and it seems to work as advertised. I would give it 5 stars but have to give it 4 because using natural gas for fuel will 'void the warranty'. Why it will 'void the warranty' is a mystery.
I would recommend this to a friend!
