The WGen9500c I bought doesn't start. Buyer beware.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great looking home generator

I bought this generator with the intention of running my whole house with a 50 amp generator inlet and interlock kit installed. I plan on installing a soft start on my ac unit to cut down wattage usage being used thru out the house and not worry if it will run with everything else. I did the amp and wattage data and this generator should provide all the power I need it to. Overall, I'm confident that it will do the job it was meant for. It seems to be a well made,sturdy gerator and it is definitely a heavy unit. It was easy to assemble.It came with very good owners manual that explained both assembly and everything about generator function/maintenance. I got it at a extremely good price to boot, so im very happy with it.

Powerful Generator

I bought this generator to replace our old one that stopped working during our last storm and am so glad I did. I liked the fact that this is an electric start because my old one was a pull start and too much work. An added plus is the key fob that allows for remote start- no more running outside to pull start! Unboxing was quick and set up required putting feet and wheels on, connecting battery and adding oil(which was included) and gas. It was fairly quick and simple and directions are easy to follow. I couldn't wait to test it out. A few people mentioned how loud this generator was but I am sat it is no longer than any other generatorvi have heard and there are quite a few in my neighborhood. Starting was unbelievably easy. Key fob remote start took just a hold down of start button as did electric start but the real winner was how easy the pull start was- one pull and it started right away. This was such a a pleasant change from our last generator that took many pulls. I like the digital screen that tells you volt output, frequency, and lifetime hours to keep you up to date eith real time info and maintenance needs. There is some important information to know regarding the breaking in period but everything is clearly stated in manual. The manual states that the generator will run for 12 hours on the full 6.6 gallons of gas. The lift up handle and wheels makes it very easy to move around. I have to say I am looking forward to our next power outage now that I have this. I highly recommend!

Really nice, compact unit.

My Westinghouse generator model WGen9500c arrived today. The generator was well packaged on a wooden pallet. Easy to unbox, easy instructions on how to apply the wheels and the front supports. And a nice package of basic tools for the spark plug and stuff. Even came with a quart of oil. Battery charger is included. And we let that run for about six hours before we tried to start. The generator started up the very first push of the button. All in all, it looks like a nice setup.

Went through Hurricane Milton!

We purchased this in the springtime based on the reviews of the product. We went through a dry run and let it operate for about an hour with all of our electric service turned off. I hard wired this into a plug to our load center with his own dedicated circuit breaker. We have a typical 2000 square foot home with a 3 1/2 ton air conditioner, and this generator ran everything except the water heater, dryer, and stove. Our air conditioner only draws 13.8 amps on startup. And this generator didn't even cough when it came on. We're running about a gallon of gasoline for every two hours based on our usage. The first three days we had no electricity and we ran a generator for 10 hours.
