    • Good performance and value
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
I had to order the high altitude kit and installed it before using. Easy set up other than that. Good performance and value for the price. It came with oil and the battery was charged and it started up right away. Don't know about long term performance, but everything about it seems good quality and a solid build. ... show more

    • Real nice generator.
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
Arrived sooner than expected. No damage, packed real good. Minor assembly and no missing parts. Took me about 15 minutes to unbox, put on the wheels and front legs, plug in battery quick connects, and another 10 minutes to fill with the provided oil. The battery already had a full charge. I like that this has a printed manual and is easy to understand. There are clearly marked warnings about put oil in first and exhaust precautions. The trickle charger that comes with it will plug right into the dash but the battery came fully charged. Generator started right up. I broke it in as suggested about 6 hours varying the load and never going over about 25% full operating load during this break in time. The fob started it and works good. It even fired right up with the recoil pull starter. Very good generator. Be sure when you are fully ready to start this thing that you have the main breaker on 1 and the gas valve open. (I have not tried propane yet but i doubt there will be any issues using it.) This generator is heavy for me but I am older than 70 and live in the forest. No flat land or concrete. The pre installed lift up frame mounted handle makes it a whole lot easier moving around. The build quality is impressive. The wheels are solid. I have no doubt this unit will serve me well. You take care of it, and it will take care of you when needed. ... show more

    • Great generator
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
I purchased this generator to power the majority of my home during an emergency. I haven't tried HVAC yet, but it will run everything else. It came well packaged with no damage to the box. The instructions are straightforward and easy to understand. After fueling the unit and turning the fuel cock to "open", I let it sit about a minute before starting. It fired up immediately. I ran the unit for about 6 hours with varied leads to break it in properly, then ran it out of fuel to avoid having stale fuel later on. I haven't tried the LP fuel connection yet. It seems to be a quality item, well built, and equipped; particularly at the price point. ... show more

    • Very happy with purchase.
Style: 13500 Watts - Dual Fuel - CO Sensor
This is my second Westinghouse portable generator. I'm very impressed with the quality construction and reliability of the generator. It's easy to unbox and assemble and the directions are very clear. You really only have to install the frame supports, the wheels, connect the battery with the easy connect and put in the oil. It took about 15 minutes. The main panel is very clearly labeled as to what function each component operates. Runs great. It's fairly easy to move around with the wheels on. It supplies all of the power that we need when a power outage occurs. Overall, I'm satisfied that I chose the best portable generator for my needs when I selected the Westinghouse 13500. ... show more

    • Awsome once everthing got resolved
Style: 12500 Watts - Dual Fuel
This seems to be a great device once the issues got resolved On Prime day this WGen9500df was on sale for a great price. Unlike my normal and frequent experiences with items purchased from Amazon this purchase was almost a comedy of errors that probably do not lie with Amazon themselves but more with the Mfg. company and delivery service. First off, be aware that if you live at an altitude above 2000 ft. in elevation as I do you will need to buy the high altitude carb kit to change the jet in the carburetor and the high altitude kit for the propane regulator. XPO Frieght was the delivery service for my unit. They called me a week before to schedule a delivery date and time window and told me I had to be there and to expect a call shortly before they arrived. On the day of delivery I recieved text message early saying that they were on the way. After that things went south. Delivery was three hours past the end of the three hour delivery window they had given me, I never recieved a call before the delivery driver knocked on my door saying they had dropped the unit off on the apron of my driveway. Not sure but the delivery people looked like they were perhaps contracted by XPO and to be fair the drivers who were respectful said they were not instructed to call before delivery and were not expecting for anyone to be home to recieve the item, but then said he was instructed to get my signature. I did get the delivery guys to move the unit where I needed it by the house before they left. Amazon sent a message asking how the delivery went. After I replied I got a message from XPO asking what had happened and that someone would follow up shortly after my text response but I have not heard back from XPO and that was over ten days ago. Outside of the high altitude carb and propane kit everything else you need comes with this unit including engine oil, the funnel to pour it in , battery charger, spark plug wrench and wrench for installing the feet provided for the unit. I put gas in the tank opened the gas fuel valve and almost immediately gas started dripping out (about one drop per second) from where the carb is bolted to the cylinder head, not good. I closed the valve and called customer service , used the option where they will call me back when it is my turn. Did not recieve a call back. Called again the next day and did recieve a call back within one half hour. A very nice and very knowledgable lady said that the fuel needle probably got knocked out of its seat during shipping (my generator arrived in what appeared to be excellent condition with no scrapes or holes in the cardboard shipping box) which made perfect sense so I said I will take it apart since I am fairly handy around these things and see if that fixes the situation. I also told her I lived at an high altitude and so she emailed me links to the kits I needed and also instructions to install the carb kit. Unfortunately after first succesfully paying for the propane kit I went on to order the carb kit which was SOLD OUT and realized that both the parts links she sent were for machines built before 2019. I then found and ordered the right kits for both but now also have that first propane kit also that is worthless to me. At only about 10 bucks in cost its not woth the time and effort to me to try and return. Once the parts arrived I took of the carb installed the new high altitude jet which was simple to do and reassembled the carb making sure that the fuel needle and seat were correctly orientated with each other. Opened the fuel valve and no more drip of gas.....great! I looked around but was not quite sure were the propane part was to be installed. The diagrams in the manual do not call out the item and could not find instructions on the company website. Took two more days of trying before getting ahold of a representative who seemed helpful and said she could email me something that day that shows where the part goes, she verified my email address but I never recieved anything from her. I went back to looking around on my own and found that this brass threaded fitting simply screws into the "out" (it is marked) port on the propane regulator that is actually located where you would attach a propane hose to. Now that everything is squared away this generator is great. I really like the remote starter which works from anywhere in my house. It starts easily and runs and powers well. I am guessing that most people would probably not run into what I did, but this was my experience. ... show more
