More than I expected

My first impressions of this generator were better than I would have thought. I thought the build would have been cheaper looking in person, and a general low quality, but to my surprise this gen is more like the premium ones you can buy for 3 times this cost! Another thing that blows me away is the sound level. Construction style generators like this are generally loud and obnoxious, I’ve own 3 10+ horsepower generators that have been too loud and embarrassing to use next to your neighbor. They must be doing mufflers different now because the Westinghouse 9500 is not necessarily quiet, but definitely do-able for the neighbors. I can speak just over normal volume and have a casual conversation next to it while it’s running. I love it! So glad I bought it!

New Generator

We recently purchased this one after 3 day power outage of Houston hurricane. After receiving it, it was easy to assemble and started right up when hooking up to nature gas. It looks very high quality and gives us added comfort that we will be better off when the next power outage comes our way.

Perfect Home Generator

The generator arrived in perfect condition. Documentation that came with it is impressive as it covers everything you need to know with detail. Start up was easy. It fired right up and ran like a champion. Very happy with this purchase. Highly recommend it!

Simple to use and a life saver

I happened to make the purchase literally a week before a storm hit Houston and I subsequently lost power. I was able to very quickly set this up and get the essentials up and running. Working off natural gas, I've been running my large fridge, internet modem, tv, work essentials, and a 9000 BTU portable air conditioner. Did my first oil change after 25 hours (took a literal 5 minutes) and everything has been running incredibly smoothly. Highly recommend.

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.

Very nice for the price

I bought this item 07-13-2024 and received it on the 25th. Tested it out and it is strong enough to power everything. Great features, I love the remote start feature and best of all is that it is a tri-fuel so I can use natural gas, propane, or gasoline.

Versatile product!

I bought this generator in July and am now am preparing to use it with Hurricane Helene approaching. I am please with the ease of understanding the control panel and the clarity of the manual that came with it. I love the three-fuel capability of this unit since I have natural gas and propane available as alternatives t gasoline

Monster Machine

I was impressed with all of its features at the price point. Easy assemble of wheels. Put in the gas, oil and it started right up. I haven't tested it for long periods as our hurricane hasn't arrived yet. Hopefully I won't need it, but fingers crossed that I have no issues with it.

Great Experience

I purchased my portable generator last month and received it last week. The installation manual was very good to put it together. My plumber ran the natural gas line and my electrician installed the manual transfer switch and ran the electric lines to my breaker box with no problem

Good selection of features

nice generator - quality control on putting this product together was lacking. I found four bolts/nuts that were loose, mainly on the rubber engines mounts - one 8mm nut was even missing, after going thru all nuts and bolts and pinging the threads, I fill with gas it started right off and ran beautifully.
