Runs great!

After unboxing it I did the simple assembly (attaching the wheels and feet), topped up the oil (be careful not to overfill it, the bottle that comes with it has more oil than needed), then hooked the trickle charger for the gel cell battery and let it charge overnight. The next day I hooked up a propane cylinder and followed the instructions to start it. It started right up and ran smoothly. Power was available at the 110VAC recepticals on the panel. The documentation that came with the unit is complete and accurate. Read it carefully and you will have no problems with operation of the unit.

Tired of freezing in the dark.

I bought this last year and didn't open box for 3 months expecting nothing to be wrong with it. I found it was damaged. Being out of 30 day return time frame, Westinghouse replaced unit. Quite surprised. Customer service was phenomenal. Tested operation on all electric house. Unit fired right up and maintained power to whole house. Easy to start and easy to run. Simple. No more darkness and multiple coats.

Tri-fuel generator

I bought this generator because of the tri-fuel option and it's wattage capacity. Mainly because gasoline is hard to get when there is a major power outage and I have natural gas at my residence. I have only had it running once so all I can say is so far so good.

Great power.

This generator is packed with great features. Easy start and comes with a remote start and stop fob. Easy setup. Comes with every thing you need for setup in the box. No need to go looking for wrenches. Handle folds out for great leverage when moving the generator and folds up to get it out of the way to save space. It has a rope start also in case you forget to charge it. It also comes with a battery charger if you don't want to start it every few months. It's probably better for the engine if you start it once in a while.

Power house generator!

This Generator is great! I'm not one to normally leave reviews, but I've gotta rave about it. Powers the job site, my trailer, back up power for my home when I have outages - you name it - it does it. Love the remote start feature as well! Makes camping even more enjoyable when i don't have to go out in the cold to start my generator.

Best Generator

I bought this March 2021 and waited until I used it enough to know the unit to write a review. Shipping was on time, delivery drivers respectful of my investment, the box in showroom condition and not a scratch on the generator. The first startup was interesting, oil added and I went to pull the cord a few times to run oil up in the motor but it started on the first easy pull. Breakin was easy, oil changing no issue. Then I had back surgery so it sat for a few months. I didn't put fuel stabilizer in it so when I rolled it out I wondered what would happen but when I turned it on, hit the remote it started right up. I researched a bunch of generators before buying and Westinghouse was always top rated for a number of reasons so I bought the WGen9500 and I couldn't be more pleased with it. I highly recommend this generator for features performance and price, you will not be disappointed.

Plenty of Power!

I bought this generator as an upgrade to my current 8000 watt generator. My old generator was good but just couldn’t keep up with running everything I wanted to run when the power goes out. This puppy has every feature I wanted, or would ever need, and packs a ton of power! I can now run everything in my whole house when a storm knocks out my power. The only thing I don’t run is my central AC unit. Rather I run a 14,000 btu and 8,000 btu portable ACs without an issue. I live very comfortably when my power goes out!

Great value high quality

I purchased smaller model years ago in Florida for hurricane backup after much research and was extremely happy with both the quality and how quietly it ran. Because of our previous good experience with the Westinghouse brand of generators and with all of the added features that are on the new models there was no question about purchasing this model.

PIECE OF MIND!

We purchased the WGen9500 during the very cold spell here in Missouri. We were concerned of a power outage during the COVID-19 pandemic and wanted to ensure that our home would keep warm during an outage to protect our family and pets. The WGen9500 worked like a charm and provided us with the comfort and piece of mind that we were looking for during our time of need. I strongly recommend purchasing one for your home.
