Great Generator

Purchased this generator to replace one that had a lot of issues. Read reviews and decided this is what I needed to help through hurricane season. So far very satisfied with this purchase and how we are using this. Love the three fuel options as getting gasoline after a storm can be a challenge.

Versatile product!

I bought this generator in July and am now am preparing to use it with Hurricane Helene approaching. I am please with the ease of understanding the control panel and the clarity of the manual that came with it. I love the three-fuel capability of this unit since I have natural gas and propane available as alternatives t gasoline

Ready for Houston's frail power grid

After experiencing many power failures over the last 5 years, from the big freeze of 2021 to most recently hurricane Beryl, I decided to buy some insurance in the form of a Westinghouse WGen9500TFc. I reviewed all generators heavily before deciding on this particular model. Gas is my preferred fuel, but Houston runs short quickly during a prolonged disaster event so being able to use many fuel types is an advantage. This generator will provide enough power to keep my family warm in the winter, and cool in the summer during the all too common prolonged power outages that frequently occur in Houston'

Sturdy and Easy to Operate

I live in Houston, TX and we have had some weather events that prompted this purchase (bought 5/31/24). I am gearing up for a storm in the gulf rn (Beryl) and feeling pretty ready with this genny. 4 stars for now bc it is sturdy and easy to understand. I had my house retrofitted to connect directly to my nat gas line for whole-house power. IF I need to use this, I will update my review based on experience.

Very Well Thought Out Generator

I am very well pleased with the layout of this generator as well as the items included which others might consider accessories such as a battery and battery charger, a wheel kit, and the hoses and connections for propane and natural gas. These hoses had quick connect fittings as well. Of course there is the option to use gasoline and it is a large tank. The wheel kit was attached in less than 5 minutes. I believe it will suit my intended use very well.

Great generator

I bought this after losing a finished basement to a power outage with no back up for my sump pump. Should have purchased long ago. This beast was super easy to put together and get running. Had it fired up within an hour of taking it out of the box. Fired right up first time, ran for about an hour. Added loads as instructed. Worked perfectly. With the connected wheels it is easy to move around and small enough to tuck away in the garage. Highly recommend.

Ez setup for the wgen9500tfc. Generator

Very simple setup place the wheels on a center spoke and lock in place with a voter key. Fill the oil up with the oil that came with it. Hooked the propane up , plugged in the 50 amp plug ,connected it to the shore connection, flip the inter connect breaker , started the generator and had power in the house. Shut down the generator, disconnected the power cord and because we were on propane did not have to drain the fuel tank and carb. But for long term running I can switch to the fuel that is available

Everything you should need.

Genset was packed well in sturdy box and arrived undamaged. Quick and easy assembly with everything needed for operation including oil, battery, and gas hoses. Sturdy frame and wheels seem more than adequate for weight of unit. More than enough capacity to run multiple refrigerators and freezers along with furnace blowers etc. I bought primarily for emergency back up for the house, but all of the connections make it ideal for RV or jobsite. Very impressed with this unit.

Starts Easy and Runs Smooth

This new portable generator is a vast improvement over my previous generator, manufactured 20+ years ago. The new Westinghouse looks fantastic, starts easy,, and runs smooth. I've waited almost six months to submit this review, expecting to lose power in the meantime and have more than short test runs to evaluate the generator, but no power outages have occured from March thru August. The generator is heavier than expected and I'm glad a young strong grandson lives here with me to help move it. The generator is plumbed into the second electrical breaker box. There's enough generator power to do everything I need, except for water heater, clothes dryer, range, and oven. The microwave can be used at partial power, and at full power if other electrical stuff is turned off. I can even use the generator to power my geothermal system heat pump, but only when the outdoor temp is greater than 20 degrees F. The electrical resistance heating would use far more power but doesn't turn on until it's less than 15 degrees outside at my home. May ask geothermal tech to install a separate switch to turn off electrical resistance heaters when the generator is the only power source.

Powerful generator

I bought this generator a month ago to prepare for hurricane season in the south. This unit is so powerful and it has so many cool features. The remote start is awesome and having a battery tender is a great addition. I have this unit hooked to my house via a 50 amp inlet and a manual transfer switch. This setup is the closest and most cost effective way of controlling my home during a power outage. I am super happy about this purchase.
