An Excellent Power Workhorse

I bought this generator after borrowing my neighbors due to a power outage that lasted 25 hours to power a sump Pump, 2 refrigerators, a chest Freezer and charged our cell phones. The unit is a high performance machine and is superior to others I shopped for. I’m grateful I bought this to protect our home. I’m also looking to have our house wired for apower transfer.

WGen9500C runs great and does everything it suppos

I purchased the generator a week ago after my 22 year old generator stopped working. This generator is much better and the technology has come a long way. This generator has remote electric start, included battery and charger and an extra 2000 watts to boot. It started right up and does everything it is suppose too.

A Great Source of Power

Georgia Power frequently experiences electric interrupts, especially during even minor rain events. The generator with transfer switch has kept our commercial freezers and home lighting working automatically when the power goes down. Starts instantaneously and turns itself off when the power comes back. A great addition to our home.

Runs like a charm

Purchased this generator in anticipation of potential PG&E power shut-offs in California in an effort to prevent further wildfires. Had it installed just in time before the first one occurred. I was able to run our home refrigerator/freezer, home office and a few lights off it, perfectly with little interruption. The push button starter and remote on/off made things very easy to operate.

Overall Great Generator

I bought this a month ago and it was easy to set up and get running. Powers sump pump, heating, well pump, 2 refrigerators, and a freezer without issue. Researched for months on which one to buy and besides price, this had a great hour per gallon rating than most, various plugs that can be used, and amount of power for all my essentials. I have an electrician coming to set u a new breaker box and plug to go directly to the generator.

WGen9500

We just recieved our generator this morning with only a couple days waiting for delivery.....Un-boxing the unit was a breeze and everything is well marked ..Assembly was a snap....The key fob start was in a great place on the engine pull cord ...put oil and fuel in the unit and it started right up ....Cant wait for the next power outage because we have it covered ....the 50 amp rv outlet is a great added bonus...always had to run a 30 on our old generator....

Great features

I bought this generator one week ago because we had a power outage two weeks ago. Reading all of the reviews and the features this generator has to offer. Will be great for our upcoming storms this hurricane season. This will power my whole house, including my AC system.

Garbage Product

I bought this thing a year and a half ago and its already stopped working. The electric start doesn't work at all and with the manual start it runs for 15 seconds. I have only ran it for maintenance every other month or so. Fortunately I have not had the need for it yet. I put in a ticket with Westinghouse a couple of months ago of course they tell me that its out of warranty. Something like a generator should last longer than a year and a half, especially if it hasnt really had to handle anything.

Superb Product

Just purchased the WGen9500 and wow. It is a beast of a machine and runs beautifully. For a larger generator it is pretty quite. The remote start is a great feature. More standing in the rain to start the genny. Overall I am extremely impressed with the quality.

Great start up

Was delivered a week ago, just put it together today. Went together really easy, started right up. Our electrician will be here next week to do the wiring. After living through category 5 Michael I will never go through another one with out a power generator. I’m hoping this unit will run most of our house. The electric start will be great for my 82 year old mother in case I’m not home and we loose power.
