I just got this today. It was a little beat up during shipment (scuffs, scratches and a dent I noticed after speaking to customer service). I called customer service and they were great and we settled any problems. They took care of everything. Later I started it up using the remote and it started first try. Let it run a few minutes and tested out the 50amp outlet. It all worked well. Hopefully if we lose power again this thing lives up to all the other reviews I read. I only gave 4 stars because of the additional time I spent on phone and shipping.

My old generator quit at the worst time. The Westinghouse 9500 is bigger and far more reliable than the other brands I have owned. This model will run the entire house, rather than stringing extension cords and deciding what my power priorities are. No more oakey rigged cords through the window. Thank you Westinghouse.

The only improvement would be to make on 4 wheels Its pretty heavy and a little awkward dragging it any distance.I have about a 2200 sq ft house ,pump my water,pump-up septic ,electric hot water heater.It handles the whole house with a little strain sometimes.You just have to be a little mindful not to use heavy load items at the same time.Perfect for the price!

I just received the generator and it looks very nice and well built. I haven’t run it yet but when I do I will post another review. The only thing I do not like about it is the <23% THD which is very high and I am worried about running any of my electronics with it.

I bought this generator 2 weeks ago, very nice unit. I have experienced power outages from hurricanes before but this year was the first power loss from a winter storm. Almost froze. Not gonna happen again with this generator. Also have bought a portable a/c and heater combo unit so it will run off the generator and not have to depend on the central unit.

The generator did not hesitate to start running following the start button. Manual directions are easy to follow. I added a soft start adaptor to the A/C compressor to reduce the AMPS to prevent the generator from flipping the breaker every time the A/C compressor turned on. The AMP reducer would not have been necessary if I had purchased an upgrade, but it is to heavy to maneuver.

I was very happy to find out the generator even came with an oil bottle with the exact engine capacity. No need to grab tools or oil, it has everything needed except gas to get you going. I tested it on my fifth wheel by running the water heater and both AC's. The unit did not chug or stutter, it operated better than I expected. I know I can take this out boondocking and not have to worry about it failing under a heavy load.

We bought a MEP 003a diesel generator. The problem was that it required a bunch of steps to get it started. My wife and I are getting old and she needed something easier to start. So we decided to replace it. With this Westinghouse WGen9500c, you turn on the switch and either press the on switch or the keyfob button and the unit starts itself. We live in a 16 x 80 mhp that has a 2 ton air unit. This generator powered the ac and our full size fridge with no problem. FYI, it was Mr. Westinghouse that came up with the idea to use AC to provide electricity to the United States. If you have ever been in a power outage you know that you need something that is dependable to get you through until the power is restored. We chose this generator and a manual transfer switch.

I've been wanting a standby generator for years but way too spendy! This one fit the bill for my home and the wattage that I need. It arrived on time, no troubles. After I put it together and filled it with oil, it started right up. I hooked it up to some heaters and a vacuum and ran it for an hour with no problems. The big test will be when the power goes off again and where I live, that is quite often. Overall, a very nice generator and I love the controls and the remote start. Very well built!

Recently bought this generator for recreational use and the occasional power outage. To start of the deliver was quick and professional, the directions inside the box were extremely clear and very easy to follow. Once I acquired the appropriate materials I got it started. Easy, fast, and very sturdy and reliable. Overall great quality, completely worth every penny. You can’t put a price on peace of mind. If you’re looking for a sign whether to make this purchase, THIS IS YOUR SIGN. Would 10/10 absolutely recommend
