Gave us much needed support during Hurricane Beryl

During Hurricane Beryl, our Westinghouse generator proved to be an invaluable asset. It performed flawlessly and exactly as expected, providing much-needed relief during the power outage. Setting it up was straightforward and hassle-free. With its dependable power supply, we managed to keep our refrigerator running smoothly, maintain our AC for comfort in the sweltering heat, and extend a helping hand to our neighbor by sharing power through an extension cord for their fans. The generator's performance exceeded our expectations, offering peace of mind during a challenging time. If you're looking for a generator that delivers on reliability and ease of use, especially during emergencies like hurricanes, I highly recommend considering the WGen9500TFc!

Bought online, assembly easy, great mobility, added oil, battery charged, started right up with push button start. So relieved to have a back up generator with such power. Tested electricity delivery to house electric bow after installing transfer lock to main box. Everything worked flawlessly.

WGen 9500 Dual Fuel Generator

We purchased this generator as we had some remodeling done in our home and opted to include the electric setup for a generator. After MUCH reading of reviews we decided on this generator. It actually came earlier than expected, delivery by truck and didn't take long for it to be unloaded. The setup, for someone who has never dealt with this type of product was very easy. To make sure we did it correctly we watched a few unboxing type reviews on Youtube. Set and ready to go in under an hour! We had our first chance to really try the generator out recently when our area lost power for about 4 hours. We gave it a trial run and it worked just as expected...perfectly! We are in the Buffalo NY area and winters usually bring power outages with the bad snowstorms. We now have our fridge and freezer protected against spoilage. We used our lights, power cords etc during this last outage and did not have one issue. We are also glad that we have a choice with the Dual Fuel option. Thank you for making such a high quality product.

Great value high quality

I purchased smaller model years ago in Florida for hurricane backup after much research and was extremely happy with both the quality and how quietly it ran. Because of our previous good experience with the Westinghouse brand of generators and with all of the added features that are on the new models there was no question about purchasing this model.

Affordable and easy to use whole house generator

I bought this in November of 2020. Finally had a chance to use it. When power was out the other day, it lit my house up, my air conditioning and tv's. It was simple to operate and ran nicely till the power came back on. Would highly recommend as an alternative to more expensive permanent units. I can wheel it to my porch and easily plug it in

Great Portable Generator

I recently purchased this generator and it was very easy to assemble. All the tools needed are included. It took 5 minutes. I tested it out and the remote start made it a breeze to start. It has the power to run my house during a power outage. The gas tank provides 12 hours of service so it will run all night. We lose power pretty regularly and this is a much lower cost option vs a backup generator

WGen9500TFc Generator

Very pleased so far with this purchase. Tons of features, packaged well, and directions were easy to follow for setting up. Started right up. Plenty of fuel options, LP, LNG, and Gas. Lots of electrical connections for output. Remote start, battery charger...lots of features loaded into this generator. There also is a proprietary smart transfer switch connection(sold separately) As I mentioned, there are lots of features built into this. I would recommend.

Amazing

I bought this generator a few days ago and let me tell you its amazing. It is less priced than its competitors it comes with the handle, wheel kit, battery for electric start, oil, funnel, tools and much more. It has great power i can run almost my whole house excluding electric stove and central air. This is the best purchase I have made in a long time.

Durable as heck until it's not

I had the Westinghouse 9500 for 2 and 1/2 years. I read the manual front to back at least three or four times just to make sure I understood it the best I could. The only thing I did not understand about it was the section about switching the neutral or ground or something based on whether it was a mobile home. I never did figure that out or understand it, but that's on me. I checked the oil as instructed and followed the maintenance schedule as well as possible. For the first two years whenever there was a power outage, I could easily go out, flip a switch start it up and run my whole house like the power never went out. For the last 6 months, it was providing the power for an RV, including the air conditioning unit, in extremely hot weather conditions up to 118° . I don't know what we would have done without it. Then winter came, and that was the beginning of the end. It began making a rattle sound, which I thought was just one of the leg nuts rattling off, it didn't sound really serious based on my limited experience.... The next day BOOM it exploded, not in a combustion and fire way, but in a gear thingy breaking in half, busting through the motor casing and spewing bearings and other miscellaneous parts on the ground beneath it. Was very impressive! But I still give this awesome generator of five star because it truly went above and beyond what any generator should ever be expected to endure! The remote start promoted my laziness and the reliability promoted my comfort level in potentially uncomfortable situations! Yes I will get another one!

Strong Standby!

We experience power outages 3-4 times a year regardless of the maintenance the linemen do. A friend suggested this brand as "rock solid" and he was right! easy to put together along with engine prep and in using the key fob fired right up on the first hit! the push button start on the unit itself fired up in one push . . .now i know my wife can start it if i'm not home and its gives her confidence to!
