Remote Start Generator

I purchased this generator to replace my old one which quit working. I was pleased with how quickly it arrived. It was easy to unpack & to put on the feet & wheels. After putting gas & oil in, it started right up. Have not actually had a chance yet to put it to full use but will be ready should our power go out. I have great expectations so I hope it doesn't disappoint.

Generator

So far so good. The only thing I didn't like was the shipping company they choose to use. It took them 3 weeks to deliver it and had terrible customer service. It wasn't on back order either. Otherwise, no complaints yet as to the performance of the generator.

Just in case!!!

The box arrived after about 10 days late damaged. But no damage to generator. Followed instructions to assemble and prep generator for starting. Instructions were easy to follow and thorough. Generator fired up first try. Tried all 3 methods of starting. All worked. Ready to power up in case of power outage.

Generator

We bought the Westinghouse 9500c generator to supply our needs when we lose power. Love the push button start; fired up with no problem. Easy to move; love how the handle folds down when not using. Easy to connect to our power system. We feel secure knowing we have this fantastic generator to keep us turned on when the lights go out.

Very capable generator

Have not had to use generator yet, but tried a practice run to see what the generator will run. We had hoped for lights,refrigerator, and small window A/C. We were very delighted that it was able to run everything we wanted. Starting generator was very easy. Also as a side note, we had already installed a separate box for generator and had shut off of main power so there is no back feed. Hopefully we won’t have to ever use it during storms but good knowing we have a back up available.

like remote start

after purchasing this system and other than turning it on after first purchasing it, when I attempted to start it to run it every 6 months as suggested. Came to find out after multiple attempts to contact someone that it was the ignition switch that was bad

Smooth Operator

This is a great generator. We are ready for any additional power outages. Didn't want to go thru that again. The remote start is a great feature. The fact that you can move it easily is awesome. I would highly recommend this baby to power your house when the unexpected happens.

WGen9500

I got this as a gift brand new from my family and it is very easy to start up without pulling the cord which is a plus, it also runs my entire house without any issues which it has been very helpful during the last two storms here in the island. Very easy to take care, only which I have gotten the dual gas and propane one.

Easy setup, started right up!

came as described. Packaging was sturdy, install and instructions were easy to follow. Once I put in oil and fuel, I hit the start button and generator fired right up. Bought this as upgrade to 22 year old smaller generator. Feel confident this new generator will provide plenty of power. Push button start is also a great feature.

Easy to Setup

Very happy with the way the 9500 set up. Owners manual was explicit and easy to follow. Fired up first try after quick charge to unit by equipped charger. Tested output to transfer switch. Performed as anticipated. Good value for homeowner. Price is right.
