Works great so far.

We bought this generator because of several loss of power events during the last few years. I completed the installation yesterday and so far it works great. We really like the electric start and it fits perfectly into a location just out the back of the house.

Beautiful design

Bought this unit with home and livestock care use in mind. Love the compact design and the myriad of features, especially the remote start for shows. Very happy with the unit so far and the steel frame, metal gas tank and gorgeous blue paint make for a tremendous purchase.

WGen9500c

I bought this product to replace another brand of generator that I had bought during an emergency. After researching and reading reviews about Westinghouse generators I decided to upgrade to the WGen9500c and I'm glad I did. It runs much quieter; the push button and remote start features are so smooth and simple to use I know my wife could start and operate it in an emergency if I wasn't home.

Excellent Generator!!!

We had to wait for delivery but it was worth it as I work from home, depending on constant power for my computer/internet and this generator will be here for me! My husband drives OTR, I can't start a smaller unit this one it perfect with the remote start. Also we built a shed to house the unit and are using a transfer switch to power our entire house, when need arises. Thank you Westinghouse!!

Outstanding Capability

The generator packs a lot of power for a relatively small piece of equipment. It stores in the corner of the garage. While putting the generator together, we ran into a slight snag, so we called Customer Service, which was amazingly helpful, kind and actually enjoyable to work with. The part we did not find in the bag (the key) was tied to the ignition in order to better protect it from loss during shipment and assembly. During the call, Adam offered several other tips to help get the most from the product. We hope we don't have to use it, but we feel more prepared this year going into hurricane season in Florida.

better than expected

bought as a replacement for a flood damaged unit of another brand. arrived in perfect condition and took less than 10 minutes to get ready to run. started on the second pull (used manual start to see how difficult if i had battery issues) Could not be more pleased

Gret Capacity for price

I tested the inductive loading capacity of this generator and it was able to take the load of my home AC. I also like the remote stop/start feature. This allows me to set up the generator and turn it off over night and let the wife and kids to start the generator with a touch of a button.

Wgen9500

I bought this generator to back up select loads in my house when the power goes out. This thing is awesome, push button start, key fob start, plenty of power! I researched generators for a while before pulling the trigger, landed on this one because of the 50a receptacle.

Plenty of Power!

I bought this generator as an upgrade to my current 8000 watt generator. My old generator was good but just couldn’t keep up with running everything I wanted to run when the power goes out. This puppy has every feature I wanted, or would ever need, and packs a ton of power! I can now run everything in my whole house when a storm knocks out my power. The only thing I don’t run is my central AC unit. Rather I run a 14,000 btu and 8,000 btu portable ACs without an issue. I live very comfortably when my power goes out!

Powerful dual fuel generator

I purchased this generator to run my home in the event of a power outage in Illinois. This has already come to serve us in a 3-day power outage from straight-line wind storm. The generator ran practically my whole home. I was able to run my furnace, refrigerator, garage, stove & bedrooms. I run gas stove, water heater, LED lights, etc so it did take up too much wattage. I shut it off at the broker when we are running on the generator & individually run items. I am very happy with this generator so far!
