new machine

I already have a 5000 watt generator, which does only part of my electric requirements for my house.I bought these unit after much research and the recommendation by my electrican. This unit will be hooked up directly to my electrical pannel. My electricty goes out frequently. Unit came shipped to my house on a pallet and was A-1 condition. Assembly of wheels and pads quick and easy. filled will oil gas and started right up. Can't wait to see how it perf0rms next time electricity goes out.

Great generator

I bought this generator on 7-30-2023 and it arrived at my home on 8-7-2023. I had not even opened the shipping box before we had a strong storm to knock out our electric !!! We arrived home late ( in the dark-no electricity ) and first thing next morning we unpacked the generator and had power within 30 minutes !!! The unit works great !!!

Great Generator

We love this generator, although what we intended for it we actually need more power. This unit is great. Only downfall I wish it was a little quieter. We used it for a concession trailer. When first calculating watts we needed 7800, when we are pulling more like 11-12000.

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!

Started right up

Received upside down and box damaged and oily. Found top frame bars bent nearly to gas tank. Should be packaged better! However after following easy assembly and set up instructions she started up with both push button and fob. Seems to run fine. Waiting for electricians to install manual transfer switch.

Solid Generator!

I recently received this generator and am excited to lose power! It feels incredibly solid and runs a lot quieter than I would anticipate a generator of this size. The electric start had an initial hard time turning over but I was able to start it right up manually and since it starts just fine with the electric start. So far I'm very happy with this purchase.

Great looking machine.

Picked up my Generator a couple days ago. Real heavy-needed help from neighbor to unload. Assembly for wheels and front feet was super easy. Filled the engine with oil and put a little gas in the tank then hit the button and it fired right up. Friends that have seen it are extremely impressed. Test it on a few small items like power tools and shop equip. The big test will come later this year if we get a hurricane. I hope to power my entire house, but lets hope no hurricanes.

Exactly what I was looking for

I bought the WGen9500 10/30/19 and it was delivered today 11/4/19. Shipping was fast and easy straight to my garage. It arrived in great condition, no damage during shipping. It assembled with easy. This is not a light item and you need to tip generator over to attached the legs and wheels. Very sturdy and is made well. Can’t wait to run this puppy, but hopefully only need to run for fun things and not power outage.

Starts right up

I bought this generator about a month ago for our food trailer, and with the winter storm here on Texas last week, boy am I sure glad we did! It saved all of our fridges and freezers and kept our food trailer warm so no problems from freezing water! It started right up on the first try from day one! I’ve already recommend this generator to several people, and would buy another one if we needed it.

Great product

It powers most of my house including my central AC unit. Use it as a home back up power source and it didn’t disappoint. Best investment you will make for peace of mind and at a good value. It won’t break your pocket and it will deliver more power than most out there at a cheaper price.
