Big bang for your hard earned money!

Seems to be a very solid generator, assembly was a snap just four bolts for feet and two pins to put wheels on. Fired right up and ran like a dream. This is my second one, the first one was bought to run a community well with a 5 hp pump when the power goes out. It runs all night in below freezing temperatures no problem and doesn't miss a beat. Can't really go wrong with this one if you take care of it, I run non-ethanol fuel and check and change oil quite frequently.

Awesome experience!

I bought the WGen9500 on 12/15/21. Picked it up the 22nd and put it in the garage. Today, 1/8/22, I finally opened the box to get it set up and ready. Wheels went on nice and easy, the front supports we're the same ease. It's so much easier to move on the wheels. Putting oil in it was a little tricky because the funnel that comes with it is a little too short but it's definitely manageable. Finally I put fresh fuel in. Tried to start it a couple times and it wouldn't start. I started looking around and finally found the fuel shut off valve. I opened it up and on the second crank, it fired right up. Very easy set up. I did it alone and it took about 15-20 min for all of it. I'm having an electrician come to hook it into the breaker box so I'm able to use it to power the necessities in the house. So far, so good! Awesome machine.

Generator

Just received the generator today. WGen9500C. Shipping was fast and delivered with no apparent damage. Put it together and put oil in it as instructed. Battery needed charging and I have it charging overnight. Have not been able to run it, thus the 4-star rating. Once running and operating correctly, I'll update the rating as necessary.

It's a beast!

Love this backup generator. Was a replacement for an old 30 amp predator that was giving us issues. This Westinghouse 50 amp can power the whole house during power outages. Well pump, sump pump, fridge, laundry. And it's quieter than I would have expected. Haven't tried the remote start yet. That's a fun upgrade. These things just keep on getting better and better. Feeling optimistic and ready for the next storm.

Great features. Definitely an upgrade.

After Hurricane Beryl, definitely needed something that can handle the job of powering a whole house. After doing the research, this definitely made the most sense both price and features wise. Feeling more confident the next time we have a power outage.

Good warranty

I purchased this generator 3 weeks ago and I am impressed on the features it has over other generators I've owned. It was easy to assemble and is capable of using 3 different fuel sources. Also it delivers up to 50 amps. of power. Looking forward to using it the next time the lights go out.

Excellent product!

We had a power outage 2 nights ago and I finally got a chance to use my WFH generator. What a life saver - I was able to keep working (I trade Asia markets from my home at night) - during the 3-hr power outage while most of this part of the world was sleeping. Next time I'll know to have more gas on hand, as I wasn't prepared and only had about a third of a container from leftover lawnmower gas around. Regardless, the generator fired up quickly and was reliable when I needed it.

Love this generator

So glad I bought this generator. It powers my whole house and I have had no issues using it. Very easy to use. Would recommend this generator to anyone looking for a reliable backup when their electricity goes out. I would buy this handy generator again.

A Power House

This thing is a power house for the money. I bought it mainly for home back up, but also for field use when needed. One of the few units with a 50 Amp output and for less money than other comparable units. It easily powers everything in and around the home with the flexibility to run from different fuel sources. Very easy to setup and run right out of the box. A quality built and tested product. I would highly recommend it.

Big Unit

The unit looks well built and strong. It was very easy to assemble. I added gas and followed the instructions and it started on the first try. I let it run for about a half hour without any load letting the engine wear in. I was very surprised at how quiet this unit is given it's size, but to compare, my pressure washer is louder. I haven't used it yet but I will update when I do
