Life saver

We received this generator right in time for the hurricane that hit Houston on July 8th. We were without power for 7 days but this generator was good. We had 2 window units connected as well as a fan, and our mobile device charging. Would recommend as it also is compatible with gasoline, propane, and natural gas to run.

Flexible whole-house back up

I added this product to my home backup system to deal with frequent and long power outages. When combined with a transfer switch, I can now run my whole house and don't have to choose which loads to run and only have certain lights available. Th This unit came with plenty of extras (and all the things you'd expect, like the starting battery). It came with a battery tender, an oil funnel and a propane hose and natural gas hose. I like the flexibility of not being stuck to gasoline and having to stabilize it between usage.

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 features

Followed start up instructions and it worked like a champ right out of box. You need to add another couple of oz of 10-30 oil to fill on top of the qt provided. Charged the battery for about 5 min to get a full charge, used the FOB to start, 3 tries and it fired right up! Its not as loud as other generators I have used, definitely a quality product. I haven't had to use it yet but I'm ready for the storm season.

Easy Start

Purchased after wind storm left us without power for two days. Sat in my garage, only unboxed and put on the wheels. Hurricane knocked out our power Sunday night, once the winds passed I added oil, fueled it up, rolled it into the backyard, and pressed the quick start. Cranked right up and is keeping our fridges running, several fans, lights, charging devices, and our TV. Very happy with this generator.

Ease of operation features

Bought it last fall 2019. Had to use it twice. Once for a snow storm where power was out for 5 hours and again the next summer in a tropical storm for 8 hours. Ran all 10 circuits on the transfer switch flawlessly. We had water fridge freezer and lights etc. Love it

Like the multiple fuel sources

I have yet to use it but like the abilities of multiple fuel sources to not require having to get up to add gasoline in the middle of the night if necessary. Also I like there are outlet covers to keep things covered from dust or rain. So only reason I am not rating as a 5 is have yet to even start it up as was just delivered last week and just put the wheels,feet, and oil in tonight.

Great Start!

I live in Louisiana now and made it through last years hurricane season without a generator. I did not want to test it again. Ordered this tri-fuel generator and it arrived way earlier than expected which was awesome. My electrician friend came and did everything in the panel and plug. Generator fired up w the handy remote control and ran fairly quiet w natural gas! Totally satisfied so far w my purchase and would recommend it to anyone needing one.

Great generator

Purchased generator to provide power to the house through a 50 amp service in case of outage. Followed assembly and setup instructions. Hooked up to a propane tank to test until I get the natural gas hookup completed. The generator fired up on the first try and ran smooth. Very happy so far, just need to finish the break in period before use

WGen9500 Generator

I bought this generator in early September to operate my 5th wheel trailer. It has been doing a great job. We run the generator approximately 24 hours a day for two weeks following Hurricane Laura. The generator did well at running the majority of my electrical circuits. I run two A/C units (13.5amp & 15amp units) during the day and one overnight with no issues.
