After a lot of research we chose the Westinghouse 9500 generator as or back-up power source for our house. Best bang for the buck! This is a well built machine with the features we wanted. It arrived quickly and required minimal assembly (tires and oil). I also plan on using the generator for working around our property. Overall extremely happy with this purchase.

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

After researching portable generators for quite some time and suffering through frequent power outages (a 6 day one last fall) we finally bought the WGen9500. It's a beast and everything the other reviews say it is. It will soon be wired into a manual transfer switch. Neighbors already came to see it and realized that doing this in the fashion we are, is a lot more cost effective than the large automatic ones that can cost 5K. I'll be building a sound reducing enclosure for it before the winter. Glad we finally have it!

Received upside down and box damaged and oily. Found top frame bars bent nearly to gas tank. Should be packaged better! However after following easy assembly and set up instructions she started up with both push button and fob. Seems to run fine. Waiting for electricians to install manual transfer switch.

I just bought this generator for my barn. I am very impressed with the solid construction and all the features. Easy to assemble wheels and clear instructions for initial set up - they even provided the engine oil needed. Remote works well and I didn't expect the automatic choke, which was a pleasant surprise. It is louder than I would have wanted, but for my use, I still rated it a five star.

This unit was very easy to assemble - add wheels and legs and you are good to go. I found the instructions easy to follow, with clear guidelines on what you should and should not do. It started the first time using the electric start in under 3 seconds. At 9500 running watts, I can power a good portion of my house via a transfer switch (not yet installed).

This is our second time purchasing this generator. --Our first one was stolen from us :( But overall, this generator does not give any issues, just normal wear/ maintenance needed the more you use it. If you have equipment that requires a lot of power this is the generator for you. We borrowed our friend's Predator 9500 Inverter and although it was silent, it was not strong enough for our needs. For the price of this generator it is very reasonable. As long as you take care of the generator, it will take care of you.

I did a lot of research and found that this generator had all the features I needed and the ability to run different appliances. We just received it today, and I am waiting for my electric company to install a Generlink switch so once it is running, I will submit another review.

50 amp plug in is located in bad place,just above rear tire. Since most 50 amp plugs are shaped in L for strian relief for cord it makes pluging in difficult. Also the could have put a dedicated gas drain valve to drain gas for storage. Over all this gen is realy is good. Runs great. easyto use.

This generator looks pretty sweet. Only reason I didn’t put 5 stars is that I haven’t actually had my house hooked up to it yet and ran the house. Happy I came off the money to get it. It should do most in my house minus the A/C of course but that’s ok I can always get a window unit or stand alone if need be. It starts right up and runs good haven’t really had to put it heavy use yet but I’ve ran it several times for a while just for break in I guess. I’ve read people saying it’s loud but honestly I haven’t been around a generator that wasn’t loud, unless an inverter gen. I wouldn’t say it’s loud because it’s like every other generator I’ve been around but this one puts out more so I think that’s good. Wish we had a place that sold them because ordering from Amazon can always be iffy because the package was in terrible shape when it finally arrived to the house. Hopefully it’s a long lasting generator!
