Westinghouse 9500c Portable Generator.

I bought because Westinghouse , has been around a long time and they are noted for quality and dependability. There are so many different manufacturers , but none can compare to Westinghouse. This thing is built like a tank , very sturdy. Works Awesome.

bullet proof durability and constant power deliver

We use this Westinghouse (WGen9000) as a replacement to the Wgen7500 that we lost in a forest, Both have performed extremely well. This has been used with an offgrid setup, providing power for tools like welders and plasma cutters, also quickly topping up batteries for a solar system on rainy days. Cannot recommend enough.

Great Upgrade

I had used a smaller unit for years and always needed to juggle breakers to make sure I didn't overload the smaller unit. This Westinghouse is set up for a transfer switch from the factory, has electric and remote start plus 50amps breaker protected of power! The quality of construction is obvious everywhere you look. I was comparing other units and was convinced to purchase the Westinghouse by the professional reviews I read. They were so emphatic about the quality and performance and they are right!

Portable quiet and has remote start/stop

I bought this to use during power outages. This was the perfect generator for my needs and w2ill power everything I need in a power outage including by AC. Used in conjunction with a transfer switch, this was a great purchase and offers us peace of mind.

Awesome Generator

I bought this a month ago as I installed a transfer switch in my house. Although I have not used it in actual outage scenario, I have tested it with the load I would be putting against the generator and it handled it without issue. There is no better generator for the power and great price point.

Great Generator!!!

I bought this a year and a half ago and haven't had to really use it. That is why it took so long to write this review. I go out every month and start it and put a load on it to keep it fresh. It starts first pull every time and has more than enough power to run my whole house. I am very pleased with the engineering of the unit and the ease of attaching equipment. So far, this has exceeded my expectations. If you need a generator, this is the one.

Absolutely LOVE WGen9500

I was honestly hoping that I wouldn't have to take this out of the box - but Hurricane Idalia had other plans. I'm a single mom, I was able to completely set up by myself. It is big and it's heavy, but I was able to do it. The assembly took me maybe 10 minutes tops. Added the oil, poured in the gas. Push start worked on the first time and she came to life! I was surprised that it wasn't outrageously loud - I thought it was going to be pretty obnoxious being that it's a bigger powered generator. But pleasantly surprised! I hooked up refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, a couple fans, and cell phone charger (I had a little power station with multiple outlets). No issues at all. Definitely recommend.

Great Feature

We purchased the WGen900DF in June 2021. We had no need to use it until hurricane Ida made her presence known but was fortunate enough not to loose power. My husband likes the feature of being able to use two types of fuel. Propane will probable be used the most. I will update the review at a later date.

Very happy customer

Easy assembly of wheels. Directions are simple and on point. Filled oil, added one gallon of gas and this generator cranked with one push of the start button. Also one push with remote. So happy we decided on this generator and will have peace of mind for next hurricane here in SC!

Re thought my review

Bought this generator a few days ago before a tornado hit the farm, I dug it out of rubble, put oil and gas and ran for a week while power was out. I gave the item five stars. Then I emailed company to ask about a manual and buy a new gas tank and frame. I got a snarky response saying none of it was covered under warranty. I guess they thought I believed the generator was covered from tornado damage lol. After giving five stars and a glowing review. I emailed back and told them that I was just looking to buy a manual at least. They are sending a manual for free but gave me a link that says nothing about Westinghouse parts. Tried going to Westinghouse website to see if I could talk to someone, good luck with that! It’s email only. A product is only as good as the people that stand behind it. I’d have to say I’m going from a five to one star, I still don’t know what I’m missing or what came with it. And apparently they don’t care what parts you use……
