Reliable and functional

I bought the 9500c generator over a month ago. It was pretty simple to get it started. Even had my wife use the remote start inside while I placed the generator at the the beginning of our driveway (over 200 feet). It started like a champ. Got to use it during Hurricane Idalia for about 1 1/2 days for our Fridge, freezer, wife’s lift chair, C-PAP, and a fan. It was good to have it in a time of need.

Big Unit

The unit looks well built and strong. It was very easy to assemble. I added gas and followed the instructions and it started on the first try. I let it run for about a half hour without any load letting the engine wear in. I was very surprised at how quiet this unit is given it's size, but to compare, my pressure washer is louder. I haven't used it yet but I will update when I do

Very Satisfied!

This generator does everything that we need it to do. It is very easy to tie in to a transfer switch and power the whole house. While it doesn't have enough power to run everything, the essential things (refrigerator, freezers, lights etc) are no problem to run full time and with just a little load balancing you can run a/c. With the frequent outages in CA, a good generator is a must have. Very happy with the purchase.

Real Nice Generator

Was delivered on time and was real easy to set up. Love the electric start and the remote start feature. I was surprised how quiet it was for a larger generator. This is my third generator and I already like it more than my previous generators. I don't think my wife will have any problem using it.

Bought online, assembly easy, mobility great, star

Bought online, assembly easy, great mobility, added oil, battery charged, started right up with push button start. So relieved to have a back up generator with such power. Tested electricity delivery to house electric bow after installing transfer lock to main box. Everything worked flawlessly.

Great generator

We experience power outages frequently where I live and I needed something to offset that. My son works from home and has to have internet. I am glad that I purchased this generator. Have only had it for about a month and it has already been of great use. It's a work horse.

Excellent product!

Very well built down to the welds of the frame. They must have been listening to customers reviews because the 50 amp plug is no longer sitting above the wheel. That caused major issues with very thick cables. Tons of features for the money. I almost can't wait for the next hurricane to put this through its paces. Very happy with my purchase and would buy from again.

vs the competition

I've spent almost a year comparing the different manufactures that are similar to this generators size. After many hours online researching and videos online, the Westinghouse generator is the only brand I will trust for the safety and well being of my family when our power goes out. I work for a utility company and I'm not home when the lights go out, so having a generator I can prep and have ready for my wife and kids is my top priority. The remote start is fantastic and works without hesitation and the fact that this generator is transfer switch ready means I don't have power cords running all of the place where my 4 year old and 1 year old are at risk of injury. I'm even going to get one for my father to replace his 20 year old generator because I'm so impressed with my unit.

First ever generator purchase…GREAT FEATURES

Such a great looking unit with a number of great features. Electric start, remote start, built in fuel gauge. 9500 running watts will be plenty of power to run our entire house. Can’t wait to use when the next power outage happens. Well put together generator. Easy to assemble out of the box.

Everything I expected

I bought this unit to provide household power in the event of an extended power outage which has occurred three times in the past 20 years due to hurricanes. I also have a Honda 3.8K generator which I have for 16 years and it has never missed a lick but it is not powerful enough to provide power to my hot water heater or oven. This Westinghouse Generator will provide me with sufficient power
