Not loud as expected!

Bought this for emergency whole home back up and first impression was great with small size but everything accessible. Also reading reviews I noticed people complaining of noise level but it was actually quieter than expected when running on patio. It’s no louder than a snow blower!

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.

Great generator for the money

I bought this generator after loosing power for multiple days at my new house which has a well pump. I can live without many creature comforts but not having the ability to have running water was terrible. The past reviews of this generator was fantastic and so far, the reviews prove true.

Well built

Generator ran well on start up. Getting it ready for home back up. Great that it came with a 50 amp connection. All the features are easy to get to and easy to understand ,comes with a great owners manual. Longer handle would make it easier to move. Overall happy with Westinghouse.

Generator

So far so good. The only thing I didn't like was the shipping company they choose to use. It took them 3 weeks to deliver it and had terrible customer service. It wasn't on back order either. Otherwise, no complaints yet as to the performance of the generator.

Great Value

Recently purchased the WGen9500c. This generator is feature rich and value packed. My wife especially appreciates the remote start feature. We live in a small two bedroom home on the coast. This should be able to power my entire home if heavy wattage users like a/c window units are managed properly.

Well built with all the features you need

I bought this to run my house if our power goes out. With multiple starting options, and clear easy to follow instructions, everyone in the family knows how to start it with little effort. There is even a port to plug a charger into so you do not have to disconnect the battery. They thought of everything when designing this.

Great Generator for the Cost

I bought this unit as a backup for my entire house, I hadn't used it for an extensive period of time until Hurricane Ian came through knocking out power for several days. This unit powered my house and ran perfectly the entire time. I had neighbors coming by the house to recharge items and provide electricity to my neighbor to keep their refrigerator working.

Convenient, easy, and powerful

I bought this generator to replace a smaller one hoping to be able to run a few more items now that my wife and I work from home and have 2 small kids. My neighbor bought a smaller Westinghouse generator and i was intrigued and impressed, so I bought one as well, just a bit bigger.. It was delivered a day early, easy to assemble ( put the wheels on and add oil ). Add Gas, Started right up. I was surprised how quiet it was for the size of the engine. I plugged it in to the house to see what kind of load/strain it would handle... it didn't even bog down or struggle. We run the boiler, 2 refrigerators, water cooler, microwave coffee maker, lights, Tv, Wifi, Cable box, and the garage door. Now we are ready for the next power outage.

Feeling safer if another hurricane hits

We got the Wgen9500, gas powered with electric start. It arrived quickly and runs great. We're feeling much less anxious about, and more prepared for the next storm now that we've got 9500 watts. We were without power for a week last time. Having this Wgen9500 is definitely a comfort.
