2nd westinghouse generator love them both!

My second This is my second Westinghouse generator. I bought this one to run my well when we lose electricity. It does the job with power left over for my household power needs. Couldn't be happier with this generator as well as my first one which I use to run my welder. Thanks for a great product!

9500 Tri Fuel Generator

I purchased my 9500 Tri Fuel Generator about 1 month ago and it was easy to set up, start up and operate! The instructions are very detailed and easy to follow - runs like a champ. I am installing a panel switch so I can run my house when the grid goes down!

Great features, instructions are very good.

I bought the Wgen9500 before a potential ice storm. I purchased this generator because it is large enough to handle most of my electrical needs if the power goes out. We did not loose power and therefore have not had an opportunity to use it. I was impressed that it came with a instruction manual, tools to assemble wheels, legs and oil for the engine. It was very easy to assemble and easy to start. It appears to be a well built unit.

Great Generator

I was not aware that Westinghouse made a portable generator. Stellar reviews, and they were spot on! This generator is awesome! Running on gasoline, I am able to power my entire 1500 square foot home. Ease of operation, quiet, and very efficient. This was a great purchase, and I would definitely recommend this generator to anyone in the market for one!

Full Featured Generator

I wanted a portable generator that worked with natural gas and this fit the bill. It's got plenty of power, even on natural gas, to handle almost everything I need in my house. The unit was well packaged and it was easy to install the feet and wheels. My only complaint is regarding the remote start key fob. It arrived with a completely dead battery, which I replaced, and then the instructions in the manual to pair the key FOB to the generator were wrong. The manual instructs to press the Engine Start button for 10 seconds to begin the pairing process, but after 2 seconds the engine tries to start. When I went to the website I found the correct instructions (there's a small red button on the side of the panel to initiate the pairing process) and I was able to get it paired. Aside from that, the unit looks good so far.

Unbeatable performance and price

Bought brand new and in box. VERY GOOD quality and detailed instructions. Every part on the generator is quality and not cheap. The electric start and remote start make it so easy to start the unit. After filling the oil and gas for the first time it fired right up on the first start. Purred like a kitten and when put under a significant load it never missed a beat. Couldn't have asked for a better quality product.

Smooth Operator

This is a great generator. We are ready for any additional power outages. Didn't want to go thru that again. The remote start is a great feature. The fact that you can move it easily is awesome. I would highly recommend this baby to power your house when the unexpected happens.

Runs our RV and charges electric car with no issue

This thing is so powerful. We are living in our RV while building a house and needed power until the county would give the temp elec permit. We had no experience with generators and wasn't sure what to get, but we knew we needed something to run our 30amp RV in the middle of a HOT southern summer, power the 1.5hp pump for our well, and charge our Nissan Leaf. (Oh the irony of using a gas generator to charge an electric car!) This generator has done all that and keeps on ticking! We use the 50 amp plug for our RV (using a 30amp to 50amp cord), use the 30a plug for our well pump, and the 120v for our car. Occasionally you can hear the generator bog down, but it's never tripped the breaker. It HAS shut off a few times on it's own, but now we understand its nuances, have adapted our behavior and have only had one actual issue (will detail later). - The CO monitor is very sensitive, so make sure it has lots of air space. - It shuts off if the oil is getting low. We've had to refill oil twice in the 2 straight weeks of use. So keep a eye on the level. We use about 10 gallons of gas each day to keep it going about 22 hours/day. (We like to let it rest a couple hours if possible.) Going to have our propane hooked up to it by the gas company tomorrow. It is loud. We have 12 acres of land and no one around us, so we don't feel awful about running it constantly. But it is annoying to have that constant hum in the background. We have it as far away from our RV as the RV extension cord will allow, and we've set up a few sound buffers between here and there to help drown out the sound. So it's not awful, but registers at 59dbl. We've also set up a shade tent over the generator to keep the sun from beating down on it. Not sure if that's needed, but it makes us feel better. We just need about 2 more weeks of use out of it and then we can store it until needed as a backup generator for the house, should power fail in the future. But I definitely feel like it's been a great value and has been so reliable. The one issue we've had: the electric start has already given out. It seemed a bit touchy from the get go, but was reliable once we figured out how to push it just right. However, the last couple of days, it just clicks when we push the button and doesn't start. We've had to start using the manual pull. I've seen a few cases online where a quick warranty claim was needed for the switch; looks like there may be known issues with it. Will add my claim to the list. Overall, we've been extremely happy with this generator and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Great Product: easy set up

I had this delivered to my home and it was easy to set up and get going. Everything was explained in the quick guide. It even included oil and a fuel funnel! (But no fuel, obviously.) Within an hour we had it in place, running, and powering the house.

Great features and easy to use

We lose power a lot and I need the generator to maintain power as I have medical conditions that require the use of breathing machines. .This generator should work very nicely and we are having an electricition hook up a transfer switch to make it even easier.
