FIRST TIME USER!

We bought this generator for a "Just in Case" we need one, and we are very pleased with how easy it was to use, especially since this is the first gas portable generator we own, and the fact that it started right up after doing what's required when unboxed.

Fantastic Piece of Equipment!

I purchased this generator earlier this month and was impressed with the workmanship and looks. After following the startup, the generator fired off immediately after the short delay on the push button. This is my first Westinghouse generator and am looking forward to many years of use. The remote start switch works well. I like it a lot!!

Top Rated Generator

This all the watts I need. Even with Electric start and a remote(that work 100%) I had to test it old school first and started 1st pull. Used twice already and runs smooth. Battery was wired already with a push connector(EASY).Handle was already on. Just had to install wheels and feet. Strong frame, has a maintenance schedule sheet, follow that and your good for years. Just a high quality generator.

WGen9500 Initial Startup

I bought the WGen9500 12 days ago. Easy to follow startup procedures. Engine started on first pull of the manual start. Battery needed charging, would not start with push button electric start or the fob. Ready for hurricane season, but hope I do not need to use the WGen9500.

Excellent run time

Bought this after a 49 hour power outage. Chose this model based on the other reviews, as well as electric start, good run time and will power our whole home Incase of another power outage. Light weight, quiet and easy to use. Excellent value for the price.

Quality Product

Bought a W9500 a couple weeks ago, and right out of the box you could tell it was really well built. Basically all I had to do was dump oil in the engine, gas in the tank, plug in the battery and press the start button. It fired right up! Puts out plenty of power and is easy on fuel. Compared to competitors, it's a bargain for the power and quality you are getting.

Very affordable for buyers

I bought this unit because I just had a 50 amp plug installed to run my generator in case of loss of electricity. I live in South Louisiana and going this route is so much cheaper than a whole house unit. We live about 3 miles from the Vermilion Bay.

easy to use

We bought this to provide power to part of our house when power goes out. setting up the generator took about 5 minutes. Connected the battery, added oil and gas and then easily powered it up with the push button start. it doesn't get easier than that. I let it run a bit and then plugged in some appliances and it performed well. havent lost power yet but will ready if we do

Efficient!!

I bought this after hurricane Beryl, and its been great! Extremely easy to operate and put together. It took less then 30 minutes to assemble and get running to power up my house! Well worth the buy that will protect my family for many years to come.
