Excellent value

Bought this in September and had transfer switches installed on the house. Have not yet needed it but did prep it for operations and started it up. The battery wasn't charged so I had to manually start it. It started on the 2nd pull and ran like a top (with no load on it.) I'm sure this will perform well under load but I really hope it never has to.

Started right away.

Bought for the summer hurricane season here in Texas. Started right away. It is heavy but the wheels help. This is something I don’t plan on using or moving around all the time. Even the key fob worked right away. I plan to start it up monthly and let it run for about 10 min just to keep things flowing. Looking forward to using it if I need to! FYI- I comes with oil but the engine oil tank is empty upon arrival. It will take the entire quart of oil that comes with it.

Great price/value for a backup generator

Nicely packaged. Had to get the jets straight from Westinghouse for my 6000 foot elevation, as nobody else had them. They were cheap, included several different jets and arrived before the generator. There were no instructions and of course a spring thingy popped out from somewhere. I was able to figure out that it kind of laid in there loosely. It is fairly loud, but I figure the neighbors can plug in if an outage gets long.

LOVE the remote start

I love the remote start with this generator. We have it about 6 feet from our kitchen window and the noise is barely noticeable. The remote will start it from inside the house. We chose to have our house wired so when the power goes out I can plug this in and use it. Our house is just under 4000 square feet and it is strong enough to handle our kitchen, office, and master suite.

Good Generator, great power

I bought this on 6/16/2020 and so far so good. I have a food truck and this thing powered it right up. I like the push button, and remote start so I don't have to look like a fool out there pulling the crank in front of customers ha. Anyway, thanks guys!

Exactly what I need!

Bought this generator about 3 weeks ago based on the great reviews I read online. It was delivered on time and damage free. Easy set up and it started right up after adding the oil. Used my power washer in order to break it in a bit. Very excited to have an electric start vs. pull start. The remote was easy to pair and it works well. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone! The only reason I have not given it 5 stars yet is because I have not experienced a power outage since purchasing this generator.

Great Generator

Had power outage due to a brush fire in the hills. PG&E performed an emergency shutdown and our neighborhood was out of power for 6 hours. Used this generator and it did its job for back up power. Connected via Transfer Switch. This was recommended by an electrician. Generator is loud, but it’s reliable, easy to start with button and easy to follow instructions. I’m happy with my purchase and glad I have this around. You just never know.

So happy with purchase

Bought for upcoming hurricane season but couldn’t get electrician to install transfer box. All organized now. Tested generator and blown away by all of the features. Installing wheels and feet a breeze. Automatic start works with easy button push. Feeling ready in case of power outage

Westinghouse WGen 9500c Portable Generator

I purchased this generator to supply our house with power when the electricity goes out during storms at any time of the year, day or hour. We can now keep our stove, refrigerator, furnace, WiFi and lights with power. This is thinking ahead and thinking smart.
