Load size and price per watt matter more than other items. Out of the box, put together and running in less than 30 minutes. Started on the forth crank cycle, then on the first crank thereafter. The only issue was the negative battery lug was hitting the wheel, rotated it out of the way and it's just fine. It doesn't have the wattage load needed to carry the whole load of the house, but it'll do just fine to cover those needed items.

I bought this 2 weeks ago and added oil, it started up first try. Used the remote feature and it worked as expected. Have not used it yet for house back up or to run tools but I'm certain it will work the way its supposed too. Checked out and have owned several generators in the past as my business requires plenty of generator use, hoping this toes the line.

I bought this a couple weeks ago and have no issues with it so far. Ran it a couple time for short periods with no load to break in the motor a bit. Last night we ran the whole house off it for a trial run in case we need it this winter. Did all we could expect it to, no problems.

Living in Florida, I've had several major-brand generators (Grac, Hon, Champ) and this Westinghouse tops them all. The auto-start, auto-choke are great features and the multiple outputs ensure compatibility anywhere, anytime. I use this with a transfer switch to power most of our home during outages. The 12500 starting amps is spot on and the fuel consumption guidance is true. If you load it up, you will go through some gas but "big blue" will not leave you out in the cold. This thing is a work horse!

I placed the order of the WGen9500 and it arrived few days later. The generator is 90% assemble. Only have to install the two wheels/legs and add the oil. I don't want to lift the generator around my house so I installed four wheels on it so i can move the generator with ease.

I almost bought a different one but glad I got this one instead because it's has more power and a 50amp outlet. Haven't broken it in yet but I'll update it once I do, planning on running my whole house on it. I like that it comes with a remote. Maybe use for my camper if needed. Bought it right before it sold out online

I tested it out and it works great it needed a little more oil that the quart that came with it. The generator runs stove, furnace and AC unit. It runs my entire house just like normal. It is very easy to start I am very glad that I purchased this generator I am now ready for whatever comes my way...

I just bought the generator replacing my 35-year-old generator. Out of the box it started right-up. I think it will carry the load of my home in Central Florida. My AC is 5280w, might have to shut off the W/H so I can keep refrigerator running. Doing load test tomorrow.

I bought this to run just about everything in the house, and it will. It is quieter than my previous 6000 watt generator. Based on the reviews, no should be disappointed. A nice touch was including everything you need to assemble and start this gem, except gas of course. Should last many, many years.

I bought this unit because I just had a 50 amp plug installed to run my generator in case of loss of electricity. I live in South Louisiana and going this route is so much cheaper than a whole house unit. We live about 3 miles from the Vermilion Bay.
