The Beast

Now I know why they call this The Beast. Everything I wanted in a generator and then some. Really love the VFT Data Center. Displays Voltage, Frequency in Hertz, Lifetime hours, and Run/Maintenance hours. Remote start is a nice added feature. Perfect for backup power when the power goes out.

Just what we needed

Just received our WGEN-9500. It came within 2 days and with no issues. We lose our power frequently in the rural area we live in and this generator will give us almost an all house generator at a fraction of the cost. After doing my research and reading many reviews, on reliability, performance and customer support, we decided on this Westinghouse generator. Solid, well made and easy to unbox and get up and running. Feeling a lot more secure now!

Very powerful

I just finally got this all set up and running after a week and love it. I love the push button start and the remote start option. So easy. It was very easy to set up and get started. Took a couple try's to turn over but that's normal. This thing is powerful enough to run my whole house. I tested it. I'm talking all my plugs, lights, fans, and appliances. Water heater, boiler, ac, water softener, and well pump. With room for more

Great product

My generated showed up a day ahead of time. It was very easy to set up and operate. It came with the propane and natural gas connectors from the manufacturer which was a added bonus. Being able to start and top the generato we work the press of a butting using the key fob is a great feature and one that made me go with this manufacturer.

Well designed, well built

Needed a unit to keep essential house utilities running during power outages (a few times a year, sometimes for a couple days), as well as running some power tools and work lights while in the woods. This is a solid design with useful features, like the USB chargers, various diagnostic indicators, and cage/frame. Heavy duty and plenty of power.

Great Quality and Appearanc!

I am located in Calif. and purchased the WGen 9500 as a proactive step anticipating down electrical time imposed as a fire prevention measure. I am very pleased with the appearance of the product along with the the break-in experience I have had. I not only like the quality of construction and features in the WGen 9500 but especially the power that would allow me to run all the equipment, appliances, etc. in my home. I highly recommend the product thus far and do not anticipate any issues.

Does the job!

Bought this after Hurricane Dorian to be prepared for future storms as we are a recent transplant to hurricane country. It wasn't the cheapest option, but has 9500 W continuous and up to 12000 peak so it will run most everything we need in an emergency. Received the unit in good shape despite being super heavy. It was mostly ready to go except for bolting on the wheels and ground rests. Hooked up the battery, added oil (included!) and gas and set the fuel open. It started right up with a key FOB like your car. Didn't even have to pull the cord. Super easy. Let it run some to break it in a little bit, then set the breakers and put some load on it. It ran everything fine! It has USB to charge your phones/computers, normal 15A, 30A and even a 50A circuit available. Eventually we would like to hook this up to a transfer switch, but for now we'll use extension cords. Seems to be really easy to use and maintenance appears to be pretty straight-forward. Hoping not to be without house power for an extended length of time but if we are for whatever reason we will be well prepared with this.
