I recently moved to a state that encounters hurricanes on a regular basis and usually have a considerable amount of frozen products that are critical to keep frozen, no matter the circumstance. I had this wired up to my panel and not only does it power all of my freezers, but can also run my central air as well. The value for the price is well worth it and I'm looking forward to having the peace of mind this brings me.

From reciept of shipment, to start-up, the 9500 is an easy product to set up an use. I chose propane for fuel. If a time comes that I use the generator full time, I may switch to gasoline, but I felt there would be fewer problems with long term storage if I used propane. Yes, you suffer a little power loss with propane, but the engine runs cleaner. No problems with gasoline going bad. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Great generator. Easy to assemble and operate. Duel fuel option is a huge plus when dealing with power outages when gas may not be ready available. This is a heavy piece of equipment, but maneuvers well with large non-inflatable wheels. We have a transfer inlet hooked into our breaker box.

Very nice generator. As received there was cosmetic damage on recoil starter cover and air cleaner (dented), remote key-fob was cracked and non-functional. Appeared to be done at factory, box was not damaged. Received very quick response from Westinghouse customer service (email), they sent replacement parts quickly.

Just bought yesterday and was easy to assemble and test. Unit fired right up on first try. Runs real smooth, and expected a bit noisy, but less noise than the other generator I was looking at to buy. I like the fob working over 200feet away. I'm sure it'll take care of all my electrical needs when emergency power is needed.

This is our first time buying a generator to power our house. After unpacking, adding oil (included along with funnel) and gas, we pushed the button on the remote start and it started up immediately. Several days later we are running it for the break in and it started right up again. It appears to be a solid unit. Also, happy to receive a free cover as a bonus!

great piece of machinery. purchased for hurricane season and luckily didn't have to use it this year. Remote start is a nice feature but push button start works beautifully. easy to set up. good quality wheels and moves around easily enough. plenty of power to run ac unit if needed.

Took a month to get here but finally here. Funnel to add oil is beautiful. Works like a charm. Hard to fill with gas without spilling. Owners manual mentioned nothing of manual battery disconnect, battery comes connected. Took following the wires to find it hidden zip tied. Fob was already paired so that was nice. I will try to see if auto choke works. I manually set choke and starts right up.

Shipped to my house a day early, box in spotless condition, contents in perfect condition... still smells brand new just like it should. I haven't fired it up yet, but based on 'presentation' thus far, I'm very optimistic. The machine isn't quite as big and heavy as I thought it would be. Don't get me wrong, it is big and heavy - I just expected more. Also, getting the machine out of the box, installing the wheels, etc. is super easy. I love how the wheels can quickly and easily go on and off with the use of cotter pins- great idea! I'm a little unimpressed with the tiny remote for the remote start. Although everything else looks quality, that does not... it's pretty small and looks cheap. And, I really wish these units had rubber tires. Practically every generator of every brand I've seen in this size has the plastic wheels, I just wish somebody would go that extra five-dollar step and provide quality rubber wheels for obvious reasons. Anyway, like I mentioned, I'm completely satisfied so far.

The generator arrived promptly according to their delivery schedule securely packaged. Assembly (wheels and feet) was quite easy and the duel fuel option will allow for greater use in extreme instances. The operation and maintenance directions were easy to easy to understand. I have only given four stars at this time because I have not actually started and used it as of yet and so cannot provided information regarding it's running condition and performance. However, it appears to be a sturdy and quality build and if it works as well as it looks this generator will exceed more than my expected needs. I am looking forward to giving it a test run.
