Very Well Built

First impressions are that this is very well built. Easy set up and looks fantastic!! The remote start is super handy so you don't have to go out just to start up the generator. Having this come with a battery trickle charger is a huge bonus. Leave it plugged in when not in use and no worries about having a dead battery when you need it!

So far so good

The only draw back is leaving your RV plugged in and you can't remote start or shut off unless you turn off/on the circuit breaker. So early mornings you still have to go out in the dark and cold to start it up. Unless there is a trick to this situation. Which I haven't found yet. Otherwise it is working awesome for our 50AMP RV. Still haven't used full potential. Maybe another review after using both AC units!

Easy to use with great features

I bought the Generator about a month ago and I am happy I did since I live in an area prone for Hurricane. It has a lot of great features so that I can use either propane or gas and which it will be easy for my wife to use should I not be available to setup and operate.

Right Sized Propane Fuel

I needed a generator big enough to run 2 well pumps and some of the house hold during Cala-Unicornia outages. I don't want to mess with gasoline because here we have an ethanol blend that doesn't store well and they won't let us have a gas can with a spout that doesn't spill when you pour. I have so far only tested and it's going to do the job. I plan on connecting to house propane tank during extended outages.

Solid machine

Just purchased this machine, as an electrician by trade I’ve seen a lot of generator and can honestly say this one is impressive. All the features that this generator comes with, plus being dual fuel capable is a great deal. I almost am looking forward to losing power this winter.

Modern features with old school quality.

We invested in the WGen9500 because we live in a little log cabin in the big woods at the actual end of the power line. After coping with regular outages and dealing with the disadvantages of lesser generators, the 9500 is stout enough to power our whole house. All my long life I've appreciated the quality behind the Westinghouse brand from heavy WWII surplus to the solid products on which we now depend for comfort, convenience, and safety. Cheers!

Good product

Overall a great product. We bought this product 2 years ago during Florida Hurricane season and fortunately for us, have not had to break it out of the box until last week during Milton. It met our needs overall, however our fridge kept tripping the GFCI which was frustrating in the moment. Something for future buyers to look into.

Great choice for senior living alone

I’m in a high fire area and power shutoffs are routine. I’m 77 and live alone. I’ve had other generators that I can’t start or run easily,,,this is the exception. I like it so much, I just ordered a second one. I have wells and freezers to run,,,,this machine can handle it and I don’t need to worry. thanks Westinghouse.

Great features

beside all great features like dual fuel capable, electric start, and versatility in connection options, the one that excited me the most is the remote starter fob. knowing that I can turn the generator ON or OFF without exposing my self to the weather elements is the greatest feature.

Generator works great Instructions not so hot

Lets start with the good stuff. The actual product is fantastic once you get it started. The push button and remote starting is wonderful. I would definitely recommend this generator to my friends and family. They would have gotten a 5 from me on the hardware if it could stand alone. However I believe the instructions are lacking 1 simple clear instruction. That is on page 14 of the manual Connecting the Battery. there in 1 sentence are the complete instructions. When you look at the unit you see black wires with a black tie around them. They look like 1 unit that shouldn't be cut apart. They should split that 1 sentence into 2 steps. 1) Cut the tie holding the battery connections, 2) Connect the 2 ends together. It would also be nice to show a picture of each operation. If you can not do that easily then at less make the tie Yellow or Red so it does not look like it is part of the wires. Customer Support is great when you finally get through to them. It took me days of calling in for long waits only to be hung up on. I was almost ready to send it back to the store.
