Loaded with useful and desirable features

Compared this unit with many others and it had all the features I wanted. Only took 30 minutes to unpack and assemble and it started right up.Ample outlets, remote start, electric or pull start, meter to let you know what’s going on. Would recommend and buy again

Lots of Power

Pros: Easily Powers our whole house (accept for HVAC system) well pump, water heater, 3 refrigerators, lights, tv....etc. ; reasonably priced; electric start; many recepticle options. Cons: loud (but it never claims to be a Quiet Generator) ; the 50 amp recepticle is positioned directly over the tire. Most HUGE 50A cords that plug in at a 90° angle will not plug in without removing the tire. (See pictures) Overall, it is exactly as advertised and we are happy with it.

Great Reliability and Proven Brand

I live solar powered and off-grid in Colorado. And need a very dependable and reliable generator to keep the batteries charged for the days throughout the year with very little sunlight, as well as outdoor projects here at the ranch. I chose the Westinghouse Wgen9500c for its proven reliability and great features and look forward to a long life of service from it.

Great Generator at a great price!

I have had this generator for about two months now. I haven't had to use it for an extended amount of time but I usually start it on a weekly basis and let it run for a few minutes. It has started up every time without an incident! I really like the features it has but I have not had a chance to use all of them for adequate commentary. The one thing that I do not like is the fuel gauge. You have to fill up the tank almost full for it to register and it doesn't seem to be accurate. Overall I am quite pleased with this product!

works to expectations

I purchased in Oct. 2022 and have had 3 opportunity to use and it performed as hoped each time. Set the choke, hit the start button 3 times and its running and supply's my entire house and unattached garage. It is set outside with temps to -7 below zero. I do have a battery maintainer attached

9500c remote start is a must have

This thing is the bee's knees and generators. I have a wrecked rotator cuff so my pull start generator has become obsolete to me. I can sit in my bedroom and click a button and on comes the power. And now my daughter and baby can run it if I'm not at home. Highly recommended and easy to put together. I'm a sixty year old female and I did it in twenty minutes. The Funnel for the oil is a little sketchy, but take your time and you won't end up with it all over the floor, live and learn right?

Good Design, Solid Machine

I experienced very quick delivery and received my WGen9500 in excellent condition. Good instruction manual enabled easy set up. Electric start with the remote start key fob is a welcome feature. My generator started immediately and runs strong. As I'm keeping this on hand for emergency backup power, when shutting down I will use the fuel shutoff to drain the carburetor. After a considerable amount of shopping and comparing options, I am very pleased with this Westinghouse generator.

Impressive Product

Purchased the Westinghouse 9500/12500 portable generator, it arrived on the scheduled date and undamaged. Most impressive is the quality of the packaging and the included accessories. Oil, funnel, remote start fob, spark plug wrench and more. Set up was easy, added gas, it started on the first push of the start button and ran great. Timely purchase, power company just notified us of a "scheduled" outage, so I may have the opportunity to try it out sooner than expected....

Great features

Just purchased product and I was very impressed in how fast I received it. The unit itself is very impressive with great features like auto start and fuel gauge which our last one didn’t have. The manual it came with is great. Completed start up and tested the generator and it runs great. Very happy with purchase..

Excellent options

Recently purchased this generator. Started right up out of the box! The price was good and should be able to power everything I need in the event that I need it. Until then it tucks nicely into a corner of my garage. Even the petite members of the family can move this around as needed.
