Powerful

I never thought about a gen till recent looking back at the struggles of blackouts thru out the years. That’s over now thanks to Westinghouse 9500/12500 gas, I can power my whole house. Turned on like a champ me and my family are super excited. Com on black outs…I got something for you. Lol.

Awesome Generator!

Just got it and it's running out in the shed as I do this review. I know it's brand new, but so far nothing but kudos to Westinghouse. Very quiet, much quieter than my old Coleman 5K, and running everything in the house except the 220v stuff. Everywhere I look I see quality. Came delivered on its own skid and in pristine condition. If you are thinking of buying a generator, look no further...

Hi Wolfie, Glad to see you're enjoying your upgrade! It's a no brainer choice for dependable home power to cover those big appliances and small electronics with its transfer switch ready outlets. Thank you for taking the time to leave a revie! Have a great day!

Perfect size generator for my home.

Just delivered yesterday and I unboxed it today. I have been looking to upgrade to a bigger generator as my needs have changed in my new home. We moved from the hustle and bustle of central Florida to a home in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains where power outages can be common certain times of the year and when it goes out the average restoration time is 6to 8 hours average. Our other generator wattage was only 5500 peak watts which was adequate for central Florida home with city water and gas appliances. But our new home is all electric with a well pump which the load is higher. I don’t expect it to run the complete home but it will be more than enough to run the necessities to make out power outages a little more easier. With 3 refrigerators , 2 freezers , lights fans and a well pump I was at my limit with 5500 watts. I haven’t used the new Westinghouse Generator yet but I know it is only a matter of time. The day we purchased this we had two outages with in one week totaling 14 hours.

Solid Generator With Good Features

Set up was very easy. With installing wheels and feet, adding oil and checking things over, took about 15 minutes. Started up on the second pull and ran smoothly. Everything worked as expected with no issues. Hurricane season is happening now. I hope I don't need to use it, but glad I have it in case I do. Can't comment on long term use, but I don't expect any issues.

Home and Farm Standby Generator

Purchase to use as standby power for home and farm. Will use with interlocked 60 amp breaker in the property master disconnect panel. Will have power to house and all out buildings. I installed all the switches, interlock, circuit breaker and inlet box. Generator was easy to setup following the easily explained instructions.

Love It

I purchased this product about a month ago, and once we opened it it was an easy assembly. We ran the generrator through test and was easy as pie. My wife even was able to do it by her self with the easy instructions and videos we watched. Love it and cant wait to use it.

Love the Features!

I recently purchased this generator for hurricane season. It started right up with the remote, recoil, & electric start. I'm more happier because it powered my entire 1425 sq ft home. It is a little loud but who cares about noise when there is no power! I'm very pleased with this product.

Great Options

I bought this generator for my house as a back up power supply. This is the perfect generator because of the many options available. It can be stored and rolled out when needed, it has a key fob and can be started without going outside or you can connect a smart switch and it will start if there's a detected power loss. Very happy with it and would recommend this generator to anyone who needs a backup power supply.

Excellent generator

I have only had the WGen9500 generator for a week but it seems to do everything that I need it to do. It has great features and plenty of power. My only complaint is that the fuel gauge does not register until the tank is nearly full and it doesn't seem to be that accurate.

WGen9500c

I purchased this Generator 09/13/2024 because we have 5 or more power outages each year. My stepmother lives with us and she requires oxygen 24/7. We had a 2500W inverter which is difficult to start and was not sufficient power :2 refrigerator a large freezer and several interior lights. This unit has remote starting. We should have purchased a unit with the power, easy care, and easy start years ago. Don't purchase a little unit, you need at least 9500W run, 12500 start.
