I like this generator because it comes with everything to run the generator, including wheels and spark plug wrenches, and even funnels. I first considered buying a cheaper one at a cheap tool shop, but even after the other generator's discount this Westing House one seemed cost-effectively better because I would have to buy a wheel kit and battery separately if I had bought the cheaper one. That is, it wasn't actually cheaper. Plus, the WGEN9500 comes with several wonderful features, including the remote starting functionality. One thing, the remote starter key fob was tied to the pull cord (for manual starting) when it was delivered. I couldn't find it at first because I thought I would find it in the manual packet or the accessary box. When you assemble the wheels and feet, see the attached pictures. It would be easier if you open the box from the bottom and attach one wheel and the 2 feet first. Then, stick in some pieces of lumber under the generator. This will help support the generator while you attach the other wheel without leaving scratches on the frame.
The price of this generator and the wattage were the two main reasons for purchase as well as the Westinghouse name. There are a number of great features for an elderly man. Remote start. After the deep freeze in Texas in February we wanted to be prepared should we have long power outages again. Handy to have wheels and handle. Easy assembly. Battery charger is a plus.
bought about a month ago after the bad freeze we had in Texas. Now I wqnt go through that again. this generator will run alot of my home when it happens again. the way our power grid failed this time Im afraid it will happen again. Im ready
I USE TO HAVE A PULL START GENERATOR. I GOT TO THE POINT WHERE I COULD NOT DO IT ANYMORE. THIS IS A GAME CHANGER. I CAN START IT ON MY OWN NOW. YOU GO GIRL!
