good instructions on assy and start up. the 50amp rec was the feature i wanted most as i can connect directly to my panel from plug outside home. the engine is not as loud as other generators i have used before.over all great generator with best price per features

Great Features

This generator has everything I would possibly need to operate my home in the event of a loss of power. I chose a gasoline only generator because my home doesn’t have access to natural gas, which made the purchase cheaper and/or allowed me to purchase a generator capable of producing a greater amount of wattage. After my 3rd time of being without electric I knew it was time to purchase one and the research and reviews pointed me to Westinghouse generators, and the price allowed me to purchase the size I need to operate all the essentials would need in a power outage!

Portable Generator 9500/12,500

I purchased this a week ago and it arrived right on time. Set up was easy and clearly spelled out in the instruction booklet. I am pleased to have purchased this. It looks like a very sound unit. I use the chain for my garage to put the tires and feet on.

Excellent Value

I reviewed several portable generators and nothing matched all the features, power and price this one did. Upon arrival I inspected the box, no problems found. When opening the box everything was nicely packaged and complete. I followed the instructions leading up to starting it, it started the first time with no problems.Very pleased!!

Amazing product

I am recently purchased this electric start generator and it has exceeded all my expectations! The electric start feature is incredibly convenient, making it super easy to get the generator running with just the push of a button. It's powerful enough to handle all my household needs during power outages and runs smoothly without any hiccups. The build quality is top-notch, and it's surprisingly quiet for such a powerful machine. Overall, this generator is a game-changer for anyone looking for reliable and hassle-free backup power. Highly recommend!

Excellent Machine

I searched thoroughly before committing to this unit. The Westinghouse name is a familiar one but maybe not for most when it comes to power equipment. I had experience with the company as I purchased a Westinghouse power washer about a year ago. That unit has proven itself along with the company. The TSC web site had 000's of positive reviews for the generator so I was inclined to purchase. I followed the instructions for set up which included adding gas and oil. Next was pairing the remote start key fob. The instructions were clear but the remote was not behaving as expected. After two failed attempts, I pushed the Start button for no real reason. The unit started to fire right up and scared me in the process. The only reason it didn't start was that the gas valve was OFF. As soon as I turned it on, the remote start kicked in on the first attempt. Very happy with the preparation and performance.

EASY SET-UP!

I bought this item last week. We've been wanting/needing a generator for years now but were finally able to make the investment. After a ton of research, I found that the WGen 9500 was highly rated. It arrived quickly and was incredibly easy to set up. Once I set it up, I added the oil and gas... Pressed the auto start and it instantly fired up! PERFECT. So happy with the purchase so far and can't wait to actually test it out this winter!

Totally Awesome Generator

So happy I bought this and I just got everything going today as I am using it as a backup for when electricity goes out. It starts very easy with the push button start but for some reason it did not come with the remote key fab it was supposed to be included with the generator.

WGen9500 Excellent Generator easy to set up

I bought this in February 2020 as emergeny backup for home electricity during electrical interruptions. I found it very easy to set up (only had to install 2 wheels and kickstand on pre-bored frame) and move into position. Procedures for initially fuelling and lubricating the generator as well as initially starting (electric or manual) were clearly shown in user manual with pictures for clarity.
