  • Reliable, Powerful, and Easy to Use
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
The WGen9500DFc has been a game-changer for my home backup needs. It starts easily on both gas and propane, runs quiet for its size, and powers everything I need—including AC, fridge, and lights—without issue. The remote start and fuel flexibility are great features. Highly recommend for peace of mind during outages. ... show more

  • Good Deal
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
Generator arrived as described. Amazon put it in the garage for us, out of the rain. Looks great. Quality looks good, better than the comparatively priced units that I reviewed. Assembly was easy. Moving is easy, with the handle on the light end. I connected ours to our propane piping from inside the house. Fortunately, the manual even gives the required gas pressure. We have a large tank for backup heat, and it was already regulated to the correct pressure at the tank, so I was able to remove the factory included regulator and run right off of our system. I had prior knowledge with gas regulation, so this step was easy. It would be nice if the hose had a removable regulator, but I made do. Generator starter right up and ran great. I have ran it right at max load with no issues. As other reviews have reported, it would be nice if it ran a little quieter, but you have to spend a lot more money to get a quieter one, but this one is certainly worth the price. The main breaker is rated at 38.5amps, so that will be your load limit, even if using the50amp connection, which we are. We’re ready for the next winter storm. ... show more

  • Finally A Well-Built Machine Backed By Solid Rep
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
Like many, I delve into the dizzying world of generators. Having a whole-home connection installed, I needed a reputable sufficient machine. After weeks of research, comparing, and viewing countless YT vids, I was easily led to the Westinghouse WGen series. Generator arrived early, no damage, followed setup instructions and had it running smoothly within the hour. Solid controls, intuitive control board, and plenty of features. My model is Wgen9500/12000 and is running the 30A line into the house connection and into a 6 circuit transfer switch. The test-runs demonstrated perfect performance under several types of loads. I’ve finished the break-in process (very important step folks) and all is well. Noise is not as bothersome as others have shared. It’s a 475cc engine. It’s got some piston to move around. Not as loud as my neighbors c*aftsman riding mower! I’m confident this machine will last many years with proper care. The warranty is great at 3 yrs and customer service is a reflection of a pioneering company of energy delivery and innovation. I’m solid with my decision. ... show more

  • Unbeatable value. Perfect for whole home emergency power.
Style: 12500 Watts - Gas Only
Why did you pick this product vs others?: The value of this generator is unbeatable. The electric start alone is convenient but having remote start is icing on the cake! I have this hard wired to our home and with a soft-start installed on my 2.5 ton central A/C unit, it powers the whole house. We have +/- 30 l.e.d. lights, two chest freezers, two 25 c.ft. French door refrigerators, gas furnace, three this, dish washer, garage door opener and clothes washer breakers hooked up to it. We've tried running all of these at the same time and it works perfect, no bogging down. I installed an interlock on main panel (very easy, user friendly install). Ran #8 awg wire to panel from 30 amp inlet box installed on side of house and NEMA L-14 power cable. I can't run dryer and A/C at same time, but no big deal. I just turn the A/C breaker off and flip dryer breaker on when I need to dry my close. Word of advice, only use recreational, no-ethanol gas and a stabilizer. I use Seafoam. It's a bit on the loud side, but expected with such a large unit. Set-up takes 2 people....or 1 stubborn husband who prefers to not ask for help! This thing started up right out of the box after adding oil and gas. ... show more

  • Great Generator, poor remote start feature IMO.
Style: 12500 Watts - Tri-Fuel - EFI
Pros: Very powerful, starts easily, easy setup and operation, push button start, not too noisy for one this size, lots of connection options. Had our first outage last night and it ran like a top and powered more than I thought it would, honestly. 4 Stars only because the remote start doesn't work like, say, a vehicle's remote start. And, I can't seem to get it to start on propane....but that could be a propane problem on my end. Cons: I bought it for the remote start and EFI. The remote start doesn't work as I had imagined. Maybe all generators are like this...but the battery switch on the generator has to be toggled on for the remote start to work. Like a car with EFI, this is like turning on the ignition. The fuel pump primes and it sits in limbo. At first I thought I'd just leave this on all the time to ensure the remote start would work....but after a day, something happens which disables the remote start unless you toggle the battery switch off and on again. Pretty frustrating really, that you must physically access the generator to use the remote start...which kind of makes the remote start useless for my application. Also, I can't get it to start on propane. Always have to start on gas and switch to propane and it works fine. But won't start on propane alone. But this may be a propane issue on my end or something. Who knows. Oh well, nice generator overall and hopefully will provide years of service. ... show more
