This is an excellent product. Well built, good looking, easy to unbox and get up and running. The documentation is outstanding. Easy to read and comprehend and it contains all the technical specifications and itemized parts list. Its a very quite running unit.
Bought this generator a week ago for all the California PSPS events it hasn't disappointed! Barely flinches when you add plugs or turn high power devices. Would recommend to anyone!
I looked at a number of other generators and for the price, the WGen9500 was the best deal and got very high ratings. Especially like the easy start button and the remote start feature. Plenty of power for the money! A well laid out and packaged unit. Easy to set up and go. Had it up and running in 15 minutes from the time I took it out of the packaging.
Just delivered today. Easy set up. Started right up after filling with oil and gas. The battery even seems to be fully charged. I had read some reviews about the rubber feet falling off due to the lack of locking nuts, and planned to Loctite them, but Westinghouse must have listened because the feet were held on with locking nuts. I haven't had a chance to actually test the unit for power output because this is replacing a very old generator with less output and my electrician needs to upgrade the feed to the panel to handle the 50 amp output. The only question I have is why the supplied oil doesn't seem to fill the crankcase, and why no actual oil spec is listed anywhere. I do want to top it up, but I don't want to mix types.
