Great Features

I bought this a week ago and have not used it for a power outage yet. However, It started promptly with the key fob on the first attempt. No issues at all installing the supports, wheels, battery cables, oil and gas. Everything was included in packaging just as listed. I purchased based on the Westinghouse 3 year warranty and the positive review ratings. Even my wife is looking forward to the next power outage.

BONUS GIFT

This generator is Wonderful!!! Got it set up and hit the remote start button and it fired right up!! We had a tornado in 2022. Unbelievable how it demolished our small town. We were without power for DAYS and DAYS!! Hope we don't have to use this generator, but thankful we have it if we need it. It Great that you can use propane, gas, or natural gas. Hope to get the cover for this generator soon. Sent review in February, but haven't gotten cover yet. it will be a great help for us to cover the generator up.

Piece of mind

I purchased this product since we live in the Houston area and the power grid failed us for 1 week. I said to myself, never again. This generator has the option for Gasoline, Natural Gas and Propane. I’ve already tested it and it ran great. Enough power to run my 1,500 sq ft home A/C on propane fuel. I hope it’ll last a long time keeping up with maintenance

Happy Customer

I did a lot of research into portable generators for our home and landed on the WGen9500. It offered the most essential features and greatest capacity for the price range which coupled with the Westinghouse reputation and dependability made the difference for me.

Great 12500 generator

Great generator, I have a dual fuel 12500 hooked up to my house ran to the house propane only, never gasoline, no carb issues with propane. Hooked to a generlink with 50amp plug. Best setup for my money. So when this came up for 799 I jumped on it for a friend.

Perfect home generator

This generator is perfect for power outages. Living in the country the power can be out for days. Wired a 50 amp plug and breaker into one of my service panels and put the breakers that were important to me in it. It’s a perfect 50 amp plug and play. Fired up this generator and it ran everything I needed. Start up is easy with a push button or remote start. It is built with very good quality. You will not be disappointed with this generator. Highly recommend!!!

Awesome

I just received my 9500 W Westinghouse generator and I am really happy with it. I live in California and we’ve been getting power outages. The only thing I would say is I got nine hours out of one tank although my whole house is electric so it was probably pulling harder. Other than that small little complaints, this is the one I wanted and I’m glad I got it.

Powerful model allowing all 3 fuel sources

Like many people that experienced recent hurricanes, I decided I needed to have adequate optional power sources. I had smaller gas generators, but had to keep moving the unit to power some portion of the critical need items. I decided I needed a larger unit to meet all, or most of, the needs with one unit. This unit also allows for gas, propane and natural gas fuels which is helpful as sustained power outages sometimes make it difficult to get gasoline. I test ran the unit for a short period and was pleased with the operation.

Started the first try

We've had an on-demand propane generator where we used to live, but thought that expenses wasn't needed in our new house. We still wanted to have a plan if we had a bad storm that knocked out the power for an extended period of time. We haven't needed to use it yet, but when I tested it, it started with the natural gas hookup on the second push of the started button - probably just need the time to get the gas into the system.

Awesome Product

We purchased this generator almost a month ago and couldn't be happier with our decision. Living in Eastern NC, we experience hurricanes yearly, and we get the occasional winter snowstorm. We live out in the country and anytime any such storm is forecasted, its practically a guarantee we will lose power. In the past, these power losses have been anywhere from a few hours to several days. I have a 26-year-old special needs daughter who spends the majority of her life on the internet. Of course, no power...no internet, It doesn't take long before everyone is in a fowl mood. Also, if the outage extends more than a few days we lose 2 chect-type freezers full of food and everything in the refrigerator. Added to all of this, I, myself was put on oxygen by my doctors in July. Its something I will have to deal with for the rest of my life. As you can read, taking all of these circumstances into account made selecting a generator a very important decision. We did our homework and researched several different models and brands. After much deliberation, we decided on the Westinghouse WGen 9500. It met all of our needs and then some, It's big enough for the square footage of our house, and having the option of using the remote is truly a blessing, I don't want to have to go out in a storm at my age to pull start it, at 70 years old, it's not safe. We haven't had it a month yet but have already put it to the test. We took almost a direct hit from tropical storm Ophelia last weekend. We lost power before the storm even made landfall. Within minutes we were back up and running. Nobody got fussy without the internet, we had no loss of food and I was able to continue on my oxygen. This generator is definitely a lifesaver. We do have plans to have it hard wired to the house when finances permit but even using it with cords, we couldn't be happier. I would like to receive the cover to protect it. Thank you for making a fantastic product.
