Awesome Generator

Reviewed many generators and Westinghouse WGen9500 had the best fit and and fuel economy for my needs. Came shipped to my door with very little assembly required. Fired right up first push of the button and ran exceptionally quiet. Nice small package and will fit easily in the camper and garage. Very happy with purchase.

I hope it gives me no trouble It came with some da

The frame was bent in a couple of places but the generator didn't seem to have any damage. I read the startup and had no problem with it starting right up. I put a small load on it with no problem. Everything looks good so far, generator came with all the stuff they said. I would have given it 5 stars except for the frame damage.

Westing House Generator

I have owned and operated Santa Elena's food truck for the past three years in Fort Collins CO. We started with the smaller IGEN4500 which was great until it was stolen. It was very reliable. However, we wanted more juice to be able to play with more toys and have a even more capacity for our business, we are so excited to have the solid reliability of the Westinghouse 9500!

Easy Easy Easy

Bought this item and I was amazed how easy it was to set up and run. The push button start is a huge plus. Nothing worse than trying to start your generator in the dark with a pull start. Louder than I would have liked, but Westinghouse quality is worth a little background noise.

Great buy for the power output and price !

This was a great buy for me considering the price.. I would have preferred the dual fuel model, but they were out of stock at the time of purchase.. After the last 2 day blackout, I decided that being prepared is very necessary.. This should run everything in my home and then some....

Beast of a machine

We don't lose power that often, but I want to be ready if/when we do. This portable generator will certainly do the trick, and I have no doubt it will help power a good majority of our house when we lose power. It was easy to set up and prepare, and with the simple step of pushing a button it started right up. I feel confident that we won't miss a beat if the power goes out.

Reviews plus many good features

I just moved to Florida and wanted a reliable, high watt output for running essentials plus during hurricane season. This generator had great reviews; features such as electric start (a must for wife) also remote start/stop, automatic (or manual if needed) choke, 30 and 50 amp hook ups and a built in battery test / charge plug. I put the supplied oil in and some gas in it and it started with remote on the first crank. I'm happy with what I have seen so far. Hurricane season will tell me more.

Runs great

I bought this a couple weeks ago and have no issues with it so far. Ran it a couple time for short periods with no load to break in the motor a bit. Last night we ran the whole house off it for a trial run in case we need it this winter. Did all we could expect it to, no problems.

Generator

Have yet to use it, I had a generac 6500-8000 that quit working, probably due to overload I wanted a larger size that will run my whole house, and after reading reviews on the 9500-12500 Westinghouse, I decided to go with this one. It has more features than comparable ones of this size. I gave it 4 stars because I have yet to use it
