Have not lost power to the house yet but all my tests have been successful. Not planning to use a converter breaker box switch. Just want the essentials: fridge, space heaters, lights, etc. This would have saved my bacon last Feb in DFW when our gov't failed us. Only complaint is the packaging. When delivered the box was beat up and the bottom tape was gone and wide open. Once opened the frame was scratched up all around. No other damage(so far). I really need the bonus cover promised in the paperwork. If this is not going to happen please let me know asap so I can make other arrangements. Thanks for the great product.

Very simple to assemble and get it started. Like the large wheels as the unit is quite heavy and that along with the handle make it easy to move around where I am may need it. Unit is quieter than I expected it would be. Like that I can start it before placing load onto the system, and each output has it's own breaker.

Recently purchased my new Westinghouse generator after my old one just wore out after twenty years. I waited several months until this model was back in stock and it was well worth the wait. The 9500 produces plenty of power and has many great features.

Recent purchase after much research. For the price, this generator has a ton of features and plenty of power. Relatively easy to move around with supplied wheels and handle. Definitely not something you want to haul in and out of a truck bed however. Currently running it through the break-in period. All good! Starts up quick and easy after added fuel and oil. Happy with the purchase, would recommend.

There was very little to do to set it up - the instructions were easy to follow. Took it outdoors & it started up the first time. I'm quite pleased because we've had a couple of power outages in the past 2 months & this will allow us to stay in our home & be warm.

I bought this 3 weeks ago came on a skid )easy to assemble and add oil and gas push button start )it started right away )I put a load on it ran it for thirty minutes to break in great deal more power then the one I had on the last Westinghouse generator the old one I've had for six years and still runs no problem

I bought this generator as a backup for my house. Intend to use the 50A plug. We have lost electricity three times in 30 days, and we live in a big city. I need to keep the furnace and refrigerators running. This generator is easy to start and use. It's quieter than my old 5000W generator.

I bought the generator to have an available power source after big storms come through. We have 5 homesteads across the metro area, and sooner or later one of us will be without power for an extended period. Features are great, and I have run one long test run without any issues. Everything worked perfect. Very happy with this purchase.

I wanted to purchase a generator that runs on natural gas, when we have storms or the power is out, I didn't want to have to worry about finding fuel in an outage. So far I really like this machine, it runs very well on natural gas, and gasoline. I haven't tried propane yet, but eventually I probably will.

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!
