    • Great generator
Style: 12500W Dual Fuel + Remote Start
I used this on my ag spraying trailer. It charges my DJI T40 batteries, controller batteries and also runs 2 120v pumps. It handles the load well. It’s not crazy loud but it is a generator so expect some noise. Super easy starting, has a choke for the cold. Has a remote controller that starts and stops it when needed. (Super handy) I will update when I run it all day in the summer on the fuel consumption. It does have the dual fuel. Gasoline or propane. Only down side to this (my fault should have read the description more) the propane doesn’t put out the same wattage as gas. I think it’s about 1,000 watts less on the propane. Also has great wheels that seem like they will last a long time, nice handle for easy mobility. All around great generator for what I needed and I’m very happy with it. Especially at the price of 999. ... show more

    • So far, so good
Style: 12500W Dual Fuel + Remote Start
I've never had a generator before, so am new to all of this. I bought the Westinghouse WGen9500DF, which on Amazon is listed as "Westinghouse 12500 Watt Dual Fuel Home Backup Portable Generator" The 12500 is the max starting watts, not the 12500 model, so that's a little confusing. So far, I am impressed with my purchase. Everything they promised appears to have been included. It seems well made, so hopefully that is true of all of the components and it will not only work whenever we need power, but it will do so for years to come. There was a little bit of an issue setting up the appointment for delivery. I think this was on the delivery company, XPO I think they said it was. I got a computerized call evidently trying to confirm the original setup date and time and it said, "Press one to confirm" or something like that, I pressed one, heard a strange computerized sound, and then the call disconnected. So, I figured that it was done. Got another call 10 or 15 minutes later that seemed to be the same thing, but this time I ended up talking to someone. So we confirmed it was all set up, which seemed like a bit much because I had indicated that the delivery date and time that was suggested when I ordered it was going to be fine. Later when I went to look at the track your order thing on Amazon it said something about how there was a problem with confirming delivery, so that was a little disconcerting. I decided that must have come from the first call that disconnected. Eventually that page showed that the delivery date and time was confirmed, but the note about there being a problem setting it up remained, so...it remained a little concerning. They appeared pretty serious about confirming delivery though. I lost track of how many times they called but I thought it was more than should have been necessary. The delivery was set for between 9 and noon. I think they got there about 10:15. The delivery guys were okay. I was told I would get a phone call 30 minutes before delivery. They called and said they were 2 minutes from my house. Not a really big deal, but I wasn't ready to answer the door. I was sort of counting on the 30 minutes, but very excited to get the generator. They were out in front of my house before I was, but I am pretty sure they really were about 2 minutes out as they had said. They evidently were not allowed to leave the generator in my back yard, which was what I had planned. They waited patiently while I moved my car out of the garage where I guess they are allowed to leave it. They waited again while I unboxed the generator and looked for any obvious damage. The box had a hole in the bottom of it, but I didn't find the generator to be damaged in that spot or any other. I was a little concerned because I had to cut the box off of the generator and when I asked how they would take it back if it were damaged, the one delivery guy said they wouldn't take it back. He later re-thought that and said they would. Evidently they deliver for many different companies and Amazon has different policies regarding accepting delivery than the others. But again, it wasn't damaged, so no problem. I was surprised that the 1.16 quarts of oil that came with it didn't quite fill it enough. I had to add a little bit. The funnel they sent worked great. I thought it was interesting that the maintenance instructions said to check the oil level without screwing the plug/dipstick in. It seemed a little difficult to be sure it was measuring properly without securing it by screwing it in. When I got enough oil in it I kept cross threading the plug, but eventually managed to get it in there properly. User error, I am sure. I liked that they sent a real wrench to use to tighten up the feet. They also included a spark plug wrench, which I haven't needed so far, but expect I will at some point. An nice extra little touch was that the two wrenches were in a little black bag that said Westinghouse on it. I expect this will be really helpful whenever I need to change the spark plug...maybe I'll notice that little bag and use their wrench, rather than it just sitting loose in my toolbox and my wondering what the heck that was for. This is my first Westinghouse product, so I will hopefully be able to quickly determine that it must go to the generator. The instructions said to set the generator on the exhaust side to put the feet and wheels on, so I did that. Instructions had also said to do this on a piece of cardboard or something similar to keep from scratching it up. I had to prop the bottom up a little to get the wheels on, which I think there may have been enough clearance without the cardboard being there. Propping it up was a little challenge because the generator is pretty heavy, but all of the parts were there and fit together the way they should; it was pretty easy to put on the feet and wheels. Once I had the wheels and feet on I found the generator to be pretty easy to move in spite of it's weight. The wheels and the handle appear to be up to the task. I moved the generator out beside the garage, which is where I anticipate will be where it will run when in actual use. I attached the propane hose that came with it to one of the tanks I have for my grill. Used the fob to start it up and it started right away. One "problem" was/is that it is really loud. However, I expected it to be pretty loud, so I certainly don't blame anyone for that. I left it running and went in the house and while I could hear it, it didn't appear that the noise would be any more disruptive than a gas powered lawnmower running outside. I pressed the button on the fob and it shut down as expected. Later I tried starting it again and had another user issue. I had attached a little gauge to the propane tank to see how much propane was still in it, and then attached the hose to the generator. Then tried to start it by pressing the button on the panel rather than using the fob. And it wouldn't start. It tried and tried. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts, I switched the battery switch to off and it stopped trying. That's when I realized I had neglected to open the valve on the propane tank, so of course it wouldn't start. So, remedied that, tried it again, still wouldn't start. At this point I removed the gauge, hooked it back up, and it started. Now however, I don't know if the second attempt when it wouldn't start was due to the gauge limiting the propane flow, or just having tried to start it with the valve off. I will likely try again with the gauge and see what happens. I plugged my circular saw into each of the four 20 amp outlets and they all worked fine. I haven't yet tested the 30 or 50 amp outlets. I have an electrician coming to install a transfer switch and expect that I will be able to test them then...as well as testing a "real" electrical load. I have not tested it with gasoline either. If it will run the whole house, or most of it anyway, on propane, I may not use the gasoline option as I would rather not deal with all of the potential issues with storing the fuel itself, stabilizer, etc., but also keeping the generator from getting all gummed up, like draining the fuel bowl etc. Anyway, I am pretty satisfied so far. ... show more

    • Great Gen
Style: 12500W Dual Fuel + Remote Start
Bought this gen for temporary outages. Works great for the intent. The gen moves easily into place when needed. Easily enough my small wife can handle it. The electric start and dual fuel features are awesome. Bonus it comes with remote start as well making it even easier to start/stop as needed from inside my home. Only downfall is that it is noisy but met expectations and I am quite happy with it. Especially for the money. ... show more

    • Robust Unit - Great Generator with lots of features
Style: 12500W Dual Fuel + Remote Start
Generator works great and powers most things in our house. Live in the rural mountains and this thing has saved us several times in random power outages. Instructions were very straightforward which made setup very simple. I am happy with the reliability of this generator so much I will be looking to have this to connected to our circuit breaker this summer so that we will have the ability to power our water well pump in the event we run into another outage. Our electricity is pretty consistent, but this generator has the ability to plugin so that will be the final step/piece in our backup plan. It is quite heavy so be ready for that, but once the wheels are installed, it moves well on flat surfaces. Would definitely recommend. ... show more

    • This generator gets everything right
Style: 12500W Dual Fuel + Remote Start
This generator gets everything right. It exudes quality. Good design, solid construction, rugged components, all in an incredibly compact size. Everything you need is included, including a quart of 10W-30 oil (that was a complete surprise!), LPG hookup hose, remote starter key fob, wrench, oil funnel, wheels and feet, screws, and more. The instructions are complete and comprehensive. The battery even comes with a full charge! All you need to provide is gas. They recommended a fuel stabilizer, which I added to the tank of gas. The setup instructions were easy to follow, and it was a breeze to start. All you do is push a button and it starts right up. No hesitation and it ran smoothly. Keep in mind it’s well over 200 lbs before fuel and oil are added, but the rugged fold up handle makes it simple to move around. The wheels and feet are sturdy and heavy-duty, so I’m not worried about how it’ll handle being moved about. So far I’m quite happy about this generator. My son has had the same model for several years and he loves it. I’m looking forward to the peace of mind this will bring me and my wife. ... show more
