Just received unit

Excellent delivery right to the door of my choosing. Very well packaged unit arrived in excellent condition. Just got it out of the box and starting to assemble. It has a battery and oil, good to go. I’m leaving now for the hardware store to npbuy four nuts missing to attach the feet on the bottom then will get it started.

Great product overall

I bought this about a month ago and so far am very happy. Really good price for the size of the unit, can nearly power my whole house with this one unit and for a fraction of the price of the whole home generators. Fuel consumption is impressive for its size.

Great features

I bought this generator one week ago because we had a power outage two weeks ago. Reading all of the reviews and the features this generator has to offer. Will be great for our upcoming storms this hurricane season. This will power my whole house, including my AC system.

Awesome Equipment

Bought item back in December as a backup for power outages to run the refrigerators and pool pump. Generator has more than enough power to rune the important items as through the breaker box during the outages. Did a test run and had no issues, ez to use and fired right up.

the 9500c is misleading it is fuel injected

I wanted a carburetor not a fuel injection system. Not much was made clear to me in its description. This is just more electronic junk to go bad, including the remote, which is only greed. I did wonder why everyone in the US was selling these so cheap? Now I know. I had to change from the great generators I had been using to this! I hope it lasts through December. It has too many gadgets and they cannot even put the serial number on the manual... you have to go out in a storm when it arrives and find it just above the exhaust and try to write it down while breathing exhaust. I wonder what would happen in a storm if you were trying register it by breathing exhaust? Yet, there are thousands of warnings about everything. I am off-grid and have had 100s of generators, yet I cannot even work on this one. Westinghouse has made it impossible without a electronics shop to work on this machine. I will not buy another Westinghouse.. greed typical of companies like Westinghouse. I do not recommend this product for any place where you are using it as backup for storms.

Great features and dependability

I bought this generator a month ago in preparation for the hurricane season. It arrived in perfect condition. The setup, startup and break-in was very easy and started right up. I bought this to power my whole house and it has all the power to do that. The machine is very easy to move around even though it weighs over 200 lbs. I start it every month to keep it ready and it starts on the very first push of the button. I couldn't be happier and recommend this generator to everybody, you won't be disappointed.

Great investment!

Wouldn't you know that when you buy a generator your power outages go down... haha! Didnt need to use it for months, but when we did it started right up.... after my husband remembered to turn the gas back on it, 5 minutes later..lol! We ran a heavy extension cord into the house, then off that a heavy splitter to run fridge, microwave, lamp, and TV. No where near the capacity this generator can handle. When the fridge cycled on, the generator didn't bog down at all. We've had a lot of power outages from 20 minutes to 9 days, this will definitely make things easier.

GREAT FEATURES!

I bought this 2 weeks ago & so far I'm happy with it. Didn't take more than 30 minutes to put on the wheels & foot stands, and add the oil & gas. Love the electric start, remote start, or pull start. The remote worked the first time I started it & the second time (from inside the house). This generator replaces the old manual start one & gives me peace of mind - especially when the electric goes out.

Excellent equipment

We bought this over 2 months ago. We did lots of research about generators before going with this one and boy are we glad we did it. It is a great machine and it keeps a couple of our big appliances going close to 24 hours. I just wish it was a bit less noisy.

When 9500 generator

I just unboxed it and the fit and finish on it is great. I have owned other generators but this looks to be the best quality. I have not used it due to no power loss but this looks to be exactly what I need. Came with everything except the fuel to get it going.
