Great System

Very happy with this system, started right out of the box. Instructions, were well written and easy to follow the wheels and support pads took under 15 minutes to install, love the solid wheels. Added oil and fuel and 2 pulls we were running, after a shut down by us we did a remote fob start and it worked the first time. M any great features and control pannel is very easy to read and use. We are sure we well be happy with our choice of this Westinghouse generator.

Great features. I was looking for a big generator

I bought this generator after yet another huge storm blew through our town and left us without power for 4 days. This generator has a lot of bells and numerous great reviews online. I purchased the generator because it is large enough to power my house and keep my food cold and the house cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I'm tired of living in the dark when storms hit. I believe this machine will give me the peace of mind I'm looking for. I was satisfied with all of the positive I have read about this machine and hope I never need to use it , but glad I have it.

Great generator for a great price

Great generator for a great price. Not many generators in this price range come with a 50amp service. My camper requires a 50amp service, therefore making the WGen9500 series a excellent match without breaking the bank. Not to mention the cool little things it comes with. Having a remote starter is beyond awesome in my opinion. Im looking forward to many years usage to come.

Love it already!

I just assembled it and got it going for the first time. I’m a big fan of the convenience of the remote start. The generator fired right up after putting it together and so far am very pleased with it. I’m moving my family off grid in a few and am already quite confident this generator will give us all the power that we need. Also, extremely easy to assemble, even for how heavy these generators can be.

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

Excellent until the key fob stopped working

The generator worked fine for a day or two then the panel light started to go off working intermittently.. after the third week the panel light stopped working completely and would not start even by manually pulling …I know electronics can be finicky and one bad part can ruin the whole pot of soup… but we are off grid and rely heavily upon the generator when the sun is scarce…

Great features and easy to operate

After having over 35 years experiance with Westinghouse electrical products and found out they manufacture generators I new I had to get one. In last 6 months we have had several power outages and being in my 80's wanted something I or my wife can easily start and hook up to house appliances. Remote start is perfect. Looking forward to putting it to the test next power outage. I know i will not be disappointed'

Great Generator, easy setup, easy start/stop

I bought this generator several months ago, sometime in May 2021, and was not able to setup and test it right away due to several reasons such as storage, timing, and others. However, I finally was able to setup and tested it this Christmas week as an advance gift for myself. The setup was simple and the test was excellent with the load. I was also able to setup the remote control and it worked great.

User Friendly Operation!

After our recent power outage and finding my old generator was suffering from an engine failure, I was motivated to purchase a new generator. This unit was recommended by my step father for it's electric and remote start features. He has been impressed by it's power output and ease of use so without hesitation I purchased the same generator and quickly got it wired up. I now have peace of mind that if we are to lose power when I am at work my wife can quickly get it running at the push of a button and the flip of a switch!

Generator review

This is my lifeline. Just purchased this last month and just went through Hurricane Debby here in the Florida keys. I felt safer knowing a had a reliable source to keep critical equipment working inside my home should the power go out following such a natural disaster. Thank you Westinghouse!
