Great Generator

I just bought this WGen 9500 and as soon as it came out of the box you could see the quality. It was very well put together and even cam with an angled funnel for making adding the engine oil a snap. Everything works great and has the correct output for voltage. I am definitely ready for the next power outage in my area. Thanks Westinghouse!!

Good Quality Generator

This 9,500 watt generator provides power to all my appliances, including central AC, which is great because I wasn't sure about the AC. It won't power the two 7,500 watt elements in my heating system, but I didn't expect it to and have propane heating in my house for that.

Great features and Size for Home Backup power

I bought this item because of features: remote & electric start and transfer switch ready to replace 23 year old smaller model. Day after assembled/set up was huge storm which knocked out power for 9 hours. Generator worked great. 12500 Peak Watts and 9500 Rated Watts and Up To 12 Hour Run Time is just what we needed. What a relief to have.

Excellent Quality great price!

I’ve been a big fan of Westinghouse equipment and they haven’t let me down so far. I bought this Westinghouse generator and it is fantastic! Super powerful and a great price. Absolutely love the features like the electric push start and even remote start when we lose the power for 6 days like just happened. Can start it from inside the house. 6 gallons of fuel lasts 12 hours! Amazing, super happy!

Good purchase

Overall very happy with purchase, have not had to use yet but set up was pretty easy although it was a little glitchy with the remote start set up and we had to call for tech support. We followed the directions on the manual but it needed to charge for a while.

Just Tested House Hookup - So Far, So Good

I wanted to be able to power critical components in my house and garage including two (2) freezers and my refrigerator as well as lights, fans, well, TV. I fired up the generator with no issues. The push-start is so much better than having to hand-crank. Surprisingly, the generator is not as loud as I expected it. My older 5200W aftermarket generator seems twice as loud. I tested connectivity to my house today and all devices worked great. I was even able to use the microwave. The only exception were the two (2) UPS connected to my TV and network devices. Even after adjusting sensitivity on these UPS, they still don't like being on generator power and switch back-and-forth between generator power and battery power. I understand an inverter generator is needed for this type of equipment. Overall, I feel very well prepared that I won't have to sit in the dark during hurricane season. I'm very glad I purchased this product.

The Best of the Best

I worked in the electrical industry for 45 yrs and I know a good product when I see one. I did my research as best as I could comparing with many others of similar size and decided on the WGen 9500 to run almost everything in my house through the home's breaker box when I loose commercial power. It's a good feeling to know within minutes I can be up and running.

Good Generator, great power

I bought this on 6/16/2020 and so far so good. I have a food truck and this thing powered it right up. I like the push button, and remote start so I don't have to look like a fool out there pulling the crank in front of customers ha. Anyway, thanks guys!

WGen9500-12500 Peak Watts Portable Generator

Extremely happy with the WGen9500-12500 Peak Watts gasoline generator that I purchased. After much research, I felt this was the generator that would fit my needs. I purchased a home with an existing system that would allow me to run my entire home when we lost power (storms). This generator will do just that. Thanks, Westinghouse.

Excellent product

After spending a month of reading reviews and manufacture hiccups I decided to give the Westinghouse 9500 a chance. Its has been amazing. I've owned this generator for 6 months now and it runs everyday without an issue. I recommend this unit 100%. very well made in the USA.
