Has all the features I wanted.

Westinghouse generator recommended by a friend who has one and stated how much he likes his. I purchased this model as it had all the features I wanted/needed at a great price. Have tried it out to test and was happy with how easy and efficient it was.

Nice generator

It's nice that it comes with the wheels as many don't. Easy setup in about 15 minutes from cutting open the box. Has the power to run most of the circuits in my house when the power is out, the important one anyway. I haven't actually had to use it yet but it ran good for my tests and started up immediately by remote. I wish it came with a cover. The registration card says you get one free by leaving a review but apparently Westinghouse didn't stock enough of them.

Great Features and Good Price

I looked at a number of other generators and for the price, the WGen9500 was the best deal and got very high ratings. Especially like the easy start button and the remote start feature. Plenty of power for the money! A well laid out and packaged unit. Easy to set up and go. Had it up and running in 15 minutes from the time I took it out of the packaging.

Easy to use and start.

I was looking for a quality generator to feed my house during power outages. After doing some research and reading lots of reviews, I bought this model. I wanted a generator that had a 50 amp plug so it could handle the majority of the house. The electric start is a great feature, and the remote start is a very nice added bonus! This starts up with ease, and is very easy to operate. It runs pretty quiet as far as generators are concerned, and is pretty easy to move with the large wheels and handle bar. I am very pleased with this purchase, and would highly recommend it to anyone in the market for one.

Solid

After a few days without power, I ordered the WGen9500. Powerful enough to run everything I needed. It showed up in 4 days when they said it would. Opened the box, everything was there; generator, wheels, rubber feet, oil, battery charger, and tool. Read the instructions. Step by step with pictures. All I needed to do was put the wheels and feet on, add the oil, and connect the battery wires. The handle was already attached and the battery was charged. Then, added fuel. Nice tank size, 6.5 gallons. Flipped the breaker switch to on, put the rocker switch to RUN, turned the fuel valve to ON position. Pulled the cord slow to prime the engine. Pressed the start button, and it started right away. Tested the 4 outlets immediately with quietestan electric chainsaw, each one worked. With the rubber feet, it didn't move from where I started it. Purposely had it on a slight incline just to find out if it would"walk". It stayed put. Also wanted to know how loud it would be. It said about 74 decibels. Fairly accurate. I have an older one that's rated for 5,000 watts which is much louder. I am going to have it be able to plug into the fuse box of the house and build a box for it to make it a little quieter. It was the quietest one in the neighborhood, even without a box over it. I like the plastic "no flat" wheels. The handle is wide with foam grip. Solidly built. Easy to move. Tried the remote start/stop. Did both first try. From the door of the house. It was in the driveway. I would highly recommend this generator.

Great value and features

I bought it a month ago immediately after Hurricane Beryl and just completed all neccessary actions to prepare my home for running off of portable generator power. Yesterday I tested it and it managed to keep lights, fridge and 5T HVAC (with soft start installed) up and running without any issues. Generator dimensions are also a big plus as I can keep it in the garage under the workbench without any issues. My definite recommendation

Great Features!!!

I bought this to use when the electricity goes out in my household. A few days ago, my house went out of power for the whole day from a tree falling on the power line, luckily I had purchased this generator and I managed to turn my whole house's power back on. It was like there was no outage and my family was able to be very comfortable thanks to the generator. It's very useful and makes a person feel reassured that they can still get power during an outage. Amazing and useful poduct. No regret purchasing it!!

excellent emergency power

After electrician set up my house to be powered by generator, this Westinghouse easily powers the entire house, with the exception of heavy draw items. I would like to see a little less gas consumption and noise level, but I am very pleased with the purchase.

Love It

I bought this generator after reading reviews. I am not disappointed. I had it installed last weekend just in time for 32 power outage. I was not disappointed. This generator powered my whole house plus my water pump. The electric start is great. No pulling for this elderly lady. So many additional features. This generator went beyond my expectations. I have the smaller generator as well and love both.
