WGen9500c review

Everything on this generator was easy to set up. All parts and instruction were clear and detailed. Minimal assembly required. Battery was fully charged and it started right away. Experienced no fluctuation in power when running lights and power tools. Great product.

Bigger than I thought lol

Bought this cause some of my friends in nearby neighborhoods have lost power for 3+ days at a time before and wanted to be prepared in case it happens to me. This thing is a beast! Mainly wanted it for my fridge and 2 freezers and it won't have any issues powering those lol.

So Easy

I had a 3500 watt crank generator that I didn't have the strength to start anymore. Plus, it didn't supply the whole house. After a lot of research, I found that the Westinghouse 9500c had and excellent reputation. They were right. All I had to do was put the wheels on and filled it with oil and gas. I followed the easy start instructions, pushed a button and on it went. I can run the furnace, the fridge, the lights and more. I am so happy and relieved.

Feature Rich

I just bought this unit and I am very impressed. It converts easily to a floating neutral, which is what I needed. It is also 50 AMP capable, also required for my needs. I also like that I can use propane, and easily switch to gasoline in a pinch. The remote start-up is also a really nice feature. The manuals are well written and the quick-start and maintenance sheets are outstanding. There is also info on the different oils and spark plugs that can be used!

Just Right Generator

We purchased this generator a couple weeks ago when we had our electrical updated at our home and added a pig tail connector for easy use during our frequent hurricanes. Timing was everything and we just experienced Francine and were able to use our new, right on time, generator. The size is fantastic and we were waiting in comfort for our services to be restored. The ease of use was a pleasant surprise and we are thankful for our good decision to purchase!!

Fantastic Generator

Bought a WGen9500TFc after going a week without electricity after Hurricane Helene. Install all the necessary equipment to be able to direct hookup to house we had a power outage this weekend and everything work exactly as expected. Very nice unit enjoyed the auto start feature.

Tri-Fuel Generator with Remote Start

Purchased this unit for an upgrade from my other lower wattage Tri-Fuel generator. Easy to setup and off and running in no time. Just fill the engine with the Quart of Oil connect the battery and screw on a BBQ Propane Bottle. Turn the unit on and put the Fuel selector switch to the fuel source. Press the Start Button on the unit and after a couple of cranks it is off and going. Use the Remote Key FAB to remotely Stop and Start the unit. Can't be simpler. A+++

Amazing and easy to use

I bought this a few months ago and waited till I had used it a few times before I left a review. This machine exceeds all my expectations. I have tried several other brands. But this one is the best generator I have ever owned. I love the tri-fuel, and that it has the power on any of the fuel types to power my whole house. I recommend it to anyone looking for power and reliability.

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.

Powered everything I needed during an outage

I bought this in Nov 2024 after a previous recent long duration power outage - I live rural, so no power also means no water usage. I'm so glad I bought it because we just had a power outage again last week. I had a transfer switch to my electrical box installed. This powered everything I needed it to during the outage - I was able to take a shower for work/use water, cook on stove, turn on lights, charge cellphones, keep the furnace running. Obviously, we were careful - used lights sparingly, didn't do laundry, or run the dishwasher, or use the oven. I bought this portable generator over a whole house one because my elderly mother was also out for a week in November. If she goes out again, I can bring this over to her so she can stay home instead of having to leave.
