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!

Built very well

This thing is a beast! It is very heavy and sturdy. Made with all great parts. Runs smooth and is powerful. I can run everything I need in my house with this generator. Would definitely recommend this product. It’s something you wish you never have to use but when you need it, it is PRICELESS

Great Worked much better than expected

I had to wait awhile due to being on back order. Then the box was damaged when delivered. I refused it and it was taken back and immediately taken care of by the company I purchased it from. Last I had to wait for an electrician to install it. With all the power shut offs by PG&E.We have had three more and more to come during fire season. The first one was three days. It was impossible to find any here. Then every electrician was installing generators. I had to wait in line for 2 months. It was all worth it. The generator ran more than I thought it would with no problem. We were not sure if it would run the air conditioner in the house. IT DID! YES! A large freezer, a refrigerator, all the lights, three TVs, Microwave, blow dryer. Not the washer and dryer, or the stove and oven, in a 1400 SQ foot tr-level. It will cover the pellet stove in the winter also. Truly pleased. The electrician was not sure if it would run the air conditioner. Everyone who sees it likes it!!! THANK YOU.

Well built unit

Bought this unit after quite a bit of research and reading other reviews. I will be using it as a back up generator if the situation ever arises. During testing it powered just about everything in my house with no problems. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a portable back up generator.

HIGH QUALITY PRODUCT!

I just received my gen yesterday. Ordered on 05JUL23, and received it 07JUL23. Estimated delivery was two weeks from order date. Amazing shipping and freight service. Gen arrived in perfect condition. Takes 10 minutes to assemble, and she is ready to go. I will give it a full test run when I receive my gen cable. I cannot wait to power my whole house with this beast!

Great product

Glad I bought this. I need it for Houston. About to power it up for the hurricane. It is large and heavy, and doing the extra delivery help is probably a good idea. It requires a large-ish storage area but once it’s on the wheels it’s quite easy to maneuver.

Everything I wanted

Purchased 30 days ago, wanted a DF model. Is set up to connect to 50 amp transfer switch, and even on propane able to power entire home including central air ! Very easy to start, love that it has manual and electric start and came with a battery tender. Electrician who installed asked me for the model and info so he could recommend to anyone looking for a generator. Have only run for a few hours to break in but feel very ready for any storms.

quieter than expected !

Bought this gen. because of the power outages in our area. It came quickly and was very easy to set up and get running. Our house already has a transfer switch and the gen. plugged right in [ with an already available power cord] . It started right up with either gas or propane and we are now ready for PG&E to do their thing.

House Backup

I bought this product two months ago. Had an electrician install a interlock kit on my main panel with an inlet connection within 30 ft of my generator location. With the 50 amp outlet on the generator and a 50 amp extension I can run my house during power outages. This includes my well. Finally had the chance to use last week after a storm. Really didn’t limit any power usage.
