Easy to assemble and provides great power

We purchased this generator because we need one with enough power to meet our hurricane and storm interruption needs. So far, it looks as though it will meet our expectations. It is quite easy to move around which is a plus when you are dealing with storms.

Can't beat the price for the size

So far very happy. Bought and broke in to Westinghouse recommendations via HDdotcom also got a great deal from them. I'd give 4-1/2stars if i could as my concerns thus far are minor. I don't like the location of the ground terminal under the 50amp receptacle it protrudes a little for my 90degree plug but it's still fine. My other concern is that I just don't like the wheels being attached by a cotter pin. When full of gas and rolling the wheels are angled just doesn't seem strong to last a long time. All in all does what its supposed to do so far so I would recommend

Heavy and Loud, but runs my whole house!

Heavy product but once the wheels and feet are installed it is much easier to move around. The plastic wheels don't give me much confidence, however, that they will last long. It is loud, but it is a 12KW generator! But...It runs my 4 ton AC and most everything else in my house so I am very pleased with it..for now!

Hopefully what we need

Bought this for Hurricane season, just in case. Put the wheels on, oil and gas...cranked right up. Push button start is a really nice feature. Be interested to see how long it will run on a tank a gas...if we ever need it. Hopefully it will like new in 20 years because we never needed it.

Good features.

It is what I thought it to be. Box was damaged but the generator itself was fine. Worked as per manual. Decent manual. Only had hope the battery charger would be the kind that maintains the battery (continually plugged in long term) - not just a charger. Hard to charge the battery when the electrical power is out and the battery is dead.

I like it!

Minimal assembly required. I added the oil, some gas, and it fired right up first push of the START button. I am surprised at all the features of this model for the price, for example: remote start and CO detector/shut off. It is well designed and well made. It runs with less vibration and is a bit quieter than I expected.

Great look, better operation

I ordered this a week ago during a winter storm that caused us to lose power for 3 days. Very minimal assembly and clearly written instructions. I have no wired in a power inlet box to have the generator run my whole house off the breaker panel. Carries the load well with no issues.

Beast of a generator!

I bought this generator to ensure we have power in the event of an emergency. I just received it and it powered right up after adding oil and fuel. Very impressed with the way it performs. I hooked up a large air compressor just to test it out and it runs like a champ. I'm very happy I bought this generator. It gives me great peace of mind.

Westinghouse 9500c Portable Generator.

I bought because Westinghouse , has been around a long time and they are noted for quality and dependability. There are so many different manufacturers , but none can compare to Westinghouse. This thing is built like a tank , very sturdy. Works Awesome.

Easy to use!

I am new to the generator universe and found the instructions easy to use and although I have only tested it and never had to use it, the instructions are so easy, my wife can use this product. We have it setup to be able to run the house in case of emergency loss of power. Thank you Westinghouse!
