As Advertised

I bought this for our home after heavy amount of research, and I am quite satisfied with my selection. The unit arrived via freight shipping and after a quick assembly of the wheels and feet, added oil, connected the battery it fired right up! The remote start is a fabulous feature for my wife whom might not be comfortable with walking up to this beast and getting it started. Very pleased.

Works great

Bought this for a what turned out to be a multi day power outage. Easy to assemble the few pieces that came in the box. Had a bit of trouble getting it to start but a quick shot of starter fluid fixed that. Used for about 2 days with absolutely no issues. Did the first oil change which was relatively simple with easy access to drain bolt. Was happy to find out unit was quieter than I expected as well.

Made GREAT & EASY to use.

The Westinghouse 9500/12500 dual fuel generator was a easy choice. The easy feature of starting with a key fob, YES A KEY FOB! Press a button and done. Starting is easy even a kid can do it. The dual fuel is a noice option as IN case electricity at the gas pump is out Dual Fuel will always be able to keep this running as propane tanks refill without electricity. The unit even for its weight is really nimble to move in place to plug in to power my whole house. Assembly is easy. I choose portable that in the future of where I go I can simply take it with me and if a friend or family member needs to use it I can load it in my SUV, I don’t even need a truck to move this bad boy. Fuel gauge is easy to read, front control panel is well laid out and not confusing. I will pick up a 40lb. propane tank to have on stand by ready to fire it up. The cast iron block was a reason to buy it as all the better police vehicles that have a cast iron engine blocks go forever

Super easy and reliable start

We set this up to replace an old generator that was here when we moved in. It was simple to setup and started like a charm. We have a planned power outage coming up and it won't even be a problem with this generator keeping the important stuff going.

Started right up first time....

Right out of the box this Genny started right up. When I was researching Genny's before buying, the reviews said the batteries arrived dead so had to be charged before testing. Well mine arrived with a full charge and we hooked a 25 pound propane tank to it pushed the start button and she started right up. I use mine for a whole house generator for power outages and about three weeks after getting it all hooked up the power went out and was out for about 6 hours. I have it hooked up for manual switch over , and I had no trouble at all she started right up and ran like a charm until the power came back on from the power company and then I switched her back to house power. I run a refrigerator freezer and a deep freeze I would normally have AC but we didn't use it that day, coffee pot, toaster and a toaster oven, flat screen TV, couple of laptops, cell phone chargers, and a water fountain for the dogs,. I have a lot of other appliances too but we don't use them unless we absolutely need them. I had a highly recommend this dual fuel Westinghouse generator especially if you need one for a whole house generator. I'll be building I'm sort of a dog house around mine with open ends so that it can breathe when it's running but it will be covered to keep the elements off of it and it'll have a door that opens on the front so that I can get to controls

Peace of Mind During Power Failures

We bought this generator after many months of looking for one that filled our needs for electrical service during power failures. I love the electrical remote start as I can stand at my circuit panel in the basement and start the generator before making the switch to backup power. The price fit our budget. And the unit powers all the equipment in our house we need to keep my wife save during power outages.

Solid Generator with Easy Setup

The generator is solid. Only wheels and rubber feet have to be installed. Clip zip tie off and connect battery leads together. Add oil and gas. Program the remote key FOB. It's that easy. Came with a battery trickle charger which is great and I don't have to tie up my larger unit. It is a very heavy unit but the wheels and foldable handle make it easy to move around.

Excellent Choice

I Chose this Brand and Model because of its features: (Capacity, Fuel options, and convenience). Got it professional installed and tested right out of the box. - Flawless ignition/start. - Tested full home powered (A/C, Fridge, plenty of lights, WiFi, computers) Plan not to use Microwave, Dryer, or toaster oven) So Far very happy with purchase. Peace of Mind. Feel prepared for electrical outages. Already recommended to a friend who also purchased it.

Great features

We received this portable generator this past weekend.. in the summer of 2023, we had a power outage due to a wicked storm and had to bail water from basement. We worried about refrigerator, electric water tank, and multiple other necessary equipment. Worry no more since we purchased the Westinghouse generator.

Great Product

Purchased generator in preparation for hurricane season. Need to keep well going for livestock. Big enough to do a lot more. Started right up out of the box both gas and propane no problems. Only tried drill and skilsaw, so far works well. Will try more equipment and my RV soon.
