I just received this unit yesterday, so I haven't used it yet. I installed the feet and wheels in about 10 minutes, added the supplied oil, plugged in and charged the battery (was already charged), and linked the remote. Hit the start on the remote and it started right up. Now all I need is another hurricane to give a good workout.

Bought this because we will lose power everything time we get bad weather and I needed something that would keep my food cold as well as allow my child to play her video games. I haven’t had a chance to run it when there is no power but will provide additional updates when that occur.

Received this 2 nights ago. Set it up yesterday, very easy process. Once oil and fuel added, pushed the start button and within a couple of seconds it was running smoothly. Did have a dent in frame, probably happened during shipping. Box was not in good condition. Does not effect operation, but is disappointing to have received it this way.

Just purchased. Everything works as expected, simple assembly of legs/wheels, oil fill, battery connect. Started on the third pull. Electric start (button) also started with no issues. Includes dedicated battery charger for electric start battery.

In an unexpected power outage, we were able to purchase the Westinghouse 9500c generator. It ran strong for 8 days and powered everything we needed in the house. We were careful not to run too much electric at once, but we were impressed none-the-less. It really saved us, as the temperatures were quite cold. Also impressive is the manual! It provides very specific details in a very easy to read and understand format. The instructions made setup, use, and an oil change a breeze!! The unexpected bonus for us was the remote start/stop fob. We didn’t realize how nice this made things; saving us from going out into the cold to push a button. Our only complaint is the noise. It is loud, and 8 days of it was uncomfortable. However, I don’t believe it is any louder than the average generator. And we expected the noise as part of the deal. Obviously, the benefits outweighed this one negative.

Overall very happy with purchase, have not had to use yet but set up was pretty easy although it was a little glitchy with the remote start set up and we had to call for tech support. We followed the directions on the manual but it needed to charge for a while.

I bought this to replace a smaller generator for our home. In addition to arriving in a timely manner it was easy to assemble with tools provided. Directions on use and maintenance are excellent and Westinghouse even provided the oil to get started. Looking forward to our next power outage!

Purchased to use with an interlock switch to my house breaker box. Works like a champ and powers everything I need it to. The remote start feature is simply priceless when connected to the house and the power goes out especially in bad weather. Just click one button from my window and swap a few breakers over and im good to go!

After reviewing many portable generators in this size range for price, performance, features, warranty and reliability I chose the WGen9500 because it met or exceeded other generators in this range. It arrived exactly when scheduled and the delivery driver was fantastic. I was able to unbox it and install the feet and wheels in just a few minutes. Though the battery need to be charged, I was able to start it manually on the first pull.

Bought this unit a month ago . Have gone thru power outages and decided to buy a generator. After researching decided to go with this one. It's well built and has a lot of features like electric and remote start. Ordered on line sight unseen and i'm not disappointed with quality. Glad I bought this on. Cant wait to lose power! lol.
