Great investment

2 weeks ago I purchase this generator. Upon receipt I was glad to see it was easy to assemble. The generator is a beautiful color. The generator came with a quart of oil and the generator manual was easy to follow. The updated push start and the remote control start is awesome. It is easy to move around for storage. The motor makes less noise than my previous generator. Glad my friend told me about this brand. Great investment!!!

Runs Strong, Great Manual

In an unexpected power outage, we were able to purchase the Westinghouse 9500c generator. It ran strong for 8 days and powered everything we needed in the house. We were careful not to run too much electric at once, but we were impressed none-the-less. It really saved us, as the temperatures were quite cold. Also impressive is the manual! It provides very specific details in a very easy to read and understand format. The instructions made setup, use, and an oil change a breeze!! The unexpected bonus for us was the remote start/stop fob. We didn’t realize how nice this made things; saving us from going out into the cold to push a button. Our only complaint is the noise. It is loud, and 8 days of it was uncomfortable. However, I don’t believe it is any louder than the average generator. And we expected the noise as part of the deal. Obviously, the benefits outweighed this one negative.

Generator that is a work horse

I just bought this generator and after setting up which was super simple and quick. I did the first run with no load. After that I did a load with just a small 32 inch LCD TV and a lamp. Then I added my deep freezer and refrigerator. The thing didn't even bat an eye and I was no where near close to the wattage of the unit. The next power outage I have I'm not gonna have a problem running everything to make my family comfortable.

Great Purchaes

I have been debating on purchasing a generator and I finally decided to purchase one. After researching several different generators, I chose this one due to great reviews and a great price. Assembly is easy and very easy to start. I did a test run with it and it seems to be perfect for me.

Perfect home generator

This generator is perfect for power outages. Living in the country the power can be out for days. Wired a 50 amp plug and breaker into one of my service panels and put the breakers that were important to me in it. It’s a perfect 50 amp plug and play. Fired up this generator and it ran everything I needed. Start up is easy with a push button or remote start. It is built with very good quality. You will not be disappointed with this generator. Highly recommend!!!

ease of set up and use

Received the generator this morning and within an hour it was up and running! Detailed instruction manual was clearly written. I can't wait to try the remote start and down the road I'm going to use the Transfer feature which was one of the selling points for me. Great job Westinghouse!

Why did I wait so long

With power outages I wanted something that I could depend on when our grid was out and I finally bit the bullet and I should have a long time ago!! Simple to operate, perfect remote start each time and does more than I ask for. I am so happy with this product!!

A definite need

We live in south Texas and was without power for several days. This is a definite need for anyone no matter where you live. You must expect the unexpected and this product will be here for use when the unexpected happens. So happy I decided to make the investment for my family. This is a great generator, it came packaged well and the shipping was super quick. Runs like a dream.

More than expected

Purchased this generator after several days comparing and reading online reviews. The Wgen9500 received great reviews and after running the generator it performed as promised. Started and run for 2 hrs and is running great. Definitely recommend this product.
