Easy to start up

The generator did not hesitate to start running following the start button. Manual directions are easy to follow. I added a soft start adaptor to the A/C compressor to reduce the AMPS to prevent the generator from flipping the breaker every time the A/C compressor turned on. The AMP reducer would not have been necessary if I had purchased an upgrade, but it is to heavy to maneuver.

So Easy

I had a 3500 watt crank generator that I didn't have the strength to start anymore. Plus, it didn't supply the whole house. After a lot of research, I found that the Westinghouse 9500c had and excellent reputation. They were right. All I had to do was put the wheels on and filled it with oil and gas. I followed the easy start instructions, pushed a button and on it went. I can run the furnace, the fridge, the lights and more. I am so happy and relieved.

Fantastic Generator!

Received the generator a couple days ago and it started right up after making sure all the oil levels and battery were good. I cant wait to convert it to natural gas/Propane so that I can use a cleaner source of fuel. This generator will last me for years to come and will power everything I need and more for my little one story home.

Great Generator - Easy set up and use

We purchased this a couple of months back preparing for winter. It was easy to set up and had the first start up in 10 minutes. It was delivered fully assembled except for the wheels. We experienced a 6 hour power outage after purchase and powered everything we needed including 2 refrigerators, freezer, wifi, lights, etc. with no issues.

Nice generator

Just finished the break in period and it’s worked as advertised. It’s only use will be backup power to our home. During the break in period it handled the loads it was bought for with power to spare. The remote start is a nice feature and will come in handy if my family has to get it started.

Very impressed

Ordered online from a home supply store. Setup was very straight forward and took about 20 minutes. I really like the voltage output on the display panel and the remote starter. Starts easily and is not too loud. I have a transfer switch on my home for 30 AMP service. I like that it also has ability to supply 50 AMP service - though I don't have a need for it. Supplying 9500 running WATTS should be adequate to supply everything I need for a power outage. I'm very happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend to others.

Easy Setup

We Bought Our Generator Last Year In October - We Finally Unboxed It Today 30MAR24 - Not For Use Yet, But To Free Up Space In One Of Our Rooms To Move It To Our Outside Storage - To Put The Wheels And Stands On Were Super Easy - We Rolled It Right Out Of The Room Into Storage With Ease - Me And My Husband Looked At Each Other Like, We Should Have Did This A Long Time Ago. We Live In Texas And Got This To Power Our Home In Case The Extreme Winter Weather Affected The Power Grid Here The Way It Did In 2022.

Excellent Product!!

First time portable gen owners. Very easy to use and lots of information out there to fall back on. Easy set up, runs quieter than expected. Solid construction. If you are newbies to the portable generator scene, you will not be disappointed with this one. Worth every penny!

Glad I bought this in the wake of the PG&E shutoff

I bought the 9500w generator and I’m not disappointed. Very easy to install the wheels and the handle is preinstalled. Added the oil which is included and after filling with gas, and connecting the battery, it fired right up with the push button ignition. Pairing of the key mod was explained in the directions and was fairly easy. Feels awesome knowing we’ll be with power and not have to go stand in line for ice with most of the other unfortunate ones when it’s lights out. Thank you Westinghouse for such a great pruduct. Thomas
