I bought the Westinghouse portable generator a month ago, and so far I am very pleased. Good power to run the house including 3.5 ton AC. I had it wired with soft start to reduce the AMP spike when the compressor starts. Extra features are nice, including remote start, harmonic gauge, and 50 AMP cord outlet. So far I have only run it for a couple of hours, the real test will be when it is needed for longer periods.

I just received the generator purchased after suffering with no power from Hurricane Beryl. It arrived almost 5-days early! I cannot wait to try it out. I rated it with 4 stars instead of 5 only because I have not used it yet. However, it has lots of features and seems to be made of great quality of materials. It's very heavy duty! Very nice.

Just received my WGen9500Fc. This is replacing an older generator. Purchased it for the increased power output but the most important to us is the electric start! As I have some physical limitations that make using a "pull start" very difficult, this was a deciding factor for us. Right out of the box, it works as advertised! My wife or I can start with a push of the button or using the "fob" that is included. This model has Excellent ratings across the internet, so these were the deciding factors. With the changing climate and the increase of severe weather conditions, this will provide the added security we want. I have it connected to our home with a transfer switch. So we are prepared. Has a more robust frame than the last generator. This would be helpful if you use it as a portable power unit. Satisfied with our decision to go with this Westinghouse unit.

We were about to buy an installed, natural gas whole-house backup generator, but the trenching, new 400 amp service (electric company requirement), and on and on added about 50% to the already high price. This will keep us going through our too-frequent power outages and keep the heat on and the refrigerators and freezer running, and we can always take it somewhere if we want. I do plan on installing a tri-fuel converter, and this generator will easily allow that without cutting the frame of our new generator. We don't have propane but do have natural gas, which will be far easier than carrying and storing dozens of gallons of gasoline.

Purchased this unit six weeks ago. Unboxing and set-up went very smoothly. I utilized a 4-wheel dolly to set the shipping box on which made it very convenient to unpack and maneuver the unit around. It was easy to install the wheels and the foot brackets while the unit sat on the 4-wheel dolly. My first test of the unit, after properly adding the oil, and going through the remainder of the set-up instructions, was using propane gas as the fuel. The unit started up right away. I ran the generator for about 30 minutes with no problems. About two weeks later, after getting the proper connector for my house natural gas, I tested with natural gas. The generator did not start immediately, but on the second start attempt. Again I ran the unit for about 30 minutes with no problems. At this point, about two months after purchase, I am very satisfied with this Westinghouse tri-fuel capable generator.

I purchases the WGen9500TFc Portable Generator & discovered its versility. It has 50 Amps / 12,000 Watts of power & it runs on gasoline, propane or natural gas. I also installed an inlet outside my house going directly to my main fuse box. It has the power to run almost everything desired, except perhaps the air conditioner, the washer/dryer & the dishwasher - things I can live without in a power outage. We have gas heat, water heater & cooking range, so those are no problem to run, & I can run several fans in lieu of the air conditioner. The versatility comes with the ability to take this unit camping, tailgating or to power a variety of tools - or anything else that needs power where no other source is available. This kind of versatility offers piece of mind.

Bought this for hurricane season. My mother requires supplemental oxygen. Since we experience power outages, this generator will not only supply power for her oxygen but it will also keep an AC unit running.The remote starter was another great feature. Perfect for our needs.

I spent hours mulling over which generator to buy. Finally decided on the big WGen9500. This should have plenty of power for my whole house when mother nature cuts us off from the grid. Same basic dimensions as most open frame generators but it is darned heavy due to its huge capacity. It is not quiet, but similar to a 4000W other brand that it is replacing. The 30 Amp L14-30R fits with my existing long cord and wall inlet so I don't have to make any changes right away. However, in order to use all of the power I'll have to upgrade everything between the generator and the house panel. Why have 12,500 peak amps if I can't get it to the house? Setup was quick and simple. Wheel kit and feet took only a couple minutes. Filled it with oil and some gas. Connected the battery with the quick connection now included. One push of the electric start button and it was off and running. Same with the remote start fob, didn't even have to pair it with the generator. The manual start was not the first pull start. Have to give it a pretty quick yank to fire it up with the pull cord. Nice to have multiple options for starting. We'll see how it does when we lose power and really need it, but great so far. I never give 5 stars but might want to rethink that after putting this through its paces.

Just received our WGEN-9500. It came within 2 days and with no issues. We lose our power frequently in the rural area we live in and this generator will give us almost an all house generator at a fraction of the cost. After doing my research and reading many reviews, on reliability, performance and customer support, we decided on this Westinghouse generator. Solid, well made and easy to unbox and get up and running. Feeling a lot more secure now!

I just received my new generator. It is great. All hoses, battery, battery charger, remote starter FOB and oil was included. Assembly was easy and pull handle well placed to the unit where I need it. Instruction manual is clear and easy to follow.
