WGen9500.

Kept the refrigerator running plus some lights using extension cords during the PG&E power shut downs. The only issue is that one of the 20 amp duplex outlets stopped working after just a few hours of operation so I need to get it fixed. Hope to eventually get it set up to hook up to the house through the 14-50 R outlet.

Enough to power whole house

After adding oil and fuel and putting wheels on, it started up and ran perfectly right out of the box. Haven't been able to get the key fob remote start to pair but I'm sure I will when I become more familiar with this model. NOTE: pay attention to instructions for the break-in period. You'll have a better, longer lasting machine for doing so.

Great generator for the money

I bought this generator after loosing power for multiple days at my new house which has a well pump. I can live without many creature comforts but not having the ability to have running water was terrible. The past reviews of this generator was fantastic and so far, the reviews prove true.

Awesome

I just received my 9500 W Westinghouse generator and I am really happy with it. I live in California and we've been getting power outages. The only thing I would say is I got nine hours out of one tank although my whole house is electric so it was probably pulling harder. Other than that small little complaints, this is the one I wanted and I'm glad I got it.

Great features

We bought the wgen9500 model three weeks ago. It was delivered 9 days later. The driver loaded it onto a dolley and we pushed it uphill on my driveway and into the garage, awesome service. A week later I put oil and gas in and started it up.What a beautiful sound, not loud at all. Haven`t put a load on it yet.

Storm ready !

I've owned several generators over the years, but this one by far has seem to be the most versatile. Being in Texas, we often find ourselves out of power So having a good reliable source gives me great comfort that my family is safe and my property stays safe as well.

Very Satisfied!

This generator does everything that we need it to do. It is very easy to tie in to a transfer switch and power the whole house. While it doesn't have enough power to run everything, the essential things (refrigerator, freezers, lights etc) are no problem to run full time and with just a little load balancing you can run a/c. With the frequent outages in CA, a good generator is a must have. Very happy with the purchase.

Perfect home generator

After careful 3 month review of generators, i found this generator will meet my needs. And it sure does! What a great investment. I power my 1800 sq. Ft. Home using a interlock system and this generator is STRONG! It does exactly what i want it to do.

Outstanding Capability

The generator packs a lot of power for a relatively small piece of equipment. It stores in the corner of the garage. While putting the generator together, we ran into a slight snag, so we called Customer Service, which was amazingly helpful, kind and actually enjoyable to work with. The part we did not find in the bag (the key) was tied to the ignition in order to better protect it from loss during shipment and assembly. During the call, Adam offered several other tips to help get the most from the product. We hope we don't have to use it, but we feel more prepared this year going into hurricane season in Florida.
