5.0 out of 5 stars Well Made Generator
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2024
This generator (model Westinghouse WGen9500c) was a surprise as it is very well made, and very sturdy. It started right up on the first try using the electric start button and first try using the remote. The remote worked extremely well and will come in very handy. Another nice surprise was all the printed information that gave detailed instructions, and descriptions. The generator came with a funnel, quart of oil, and all tools needed. The large size wheels were easy to mount as were the feet. Although the generator is heavy it was fairly easy to maneuver with the large wheels. We are in our 80's and thought we would have an issue moving it around but did not! So far we are very pleased with out purchase and based on the above info would recommend this generator. Hopefully it will provide extremely good service in the years to come.

I needed to upgrade my generator to something that would be able to run off of either electricity or natural gas. This generator is perfect for that! It has enough power to keep the power on to the house, including a commercial freezer, refrigerator, air conditioning, Computer and Wi-Fi. it is not too big, but it is heavy. I ran it for a few hours to get everything working smoothly and it was perfect. It is loud, but I have my generator out in my barn so the noise didn’t bother me too much. But if you have to run it from your garage or out your back door, it might be a bit noisy. The start up directions and how to use it are simple and easy - my wife gave it her stamp of approval. Overall, this is an excellent product for the price and I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a natural gas hook up for a generator. Five stars!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy, User-Friendly Generator with Convenient Features
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2024
This generator (Westinghouse WGen9500c) exceeded my expectations with its solid construction and durability. It fired up on the first attempt using both the electric start and the remote, which worked flawlessly and is incredibly convenient. I was also impressed by the thorough printed instructions, offering clear guidance and descriptions. The package included helpful extras like a funnel, a quart of oil, and the necessary tools. The large wheels and feet were simple to install, and despite its weight, the generator was relatively easy to move, even with my bad back! I’m very satisfied with this purchase and feel confident recommending it. I hope it continues to serve me well for years to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Quality and Price!
Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2024
I am very impressed with how well the generator is built. Especially, for the price!!! It’s rare for a generator to have both a 30Amp and 50Amp outlet. I love the flexibility of being able the use gas or propane. I can’t forget the remote start! So convenient! I am not a strong woman by any means, but I can easily move the generator around using the handle with no problem at all! It’s not louder than any other generator. Let’s face it! Generators are loud! Not much you can do about it! It does run nice and smooth. Not choppy and inconsistent. I am very happy with my purchase!

Read what AM said above. I agree with all with these points: First, I used to have a 9500/7500 (peak, running) generator dual fuel from Costco. This is more powerful and just about the same weight. Bigger wheels seem to make it feel lighter. Unboxing was easy if you just cut the corners down vertically on two sides. Even tipping the generator over was not a big deal for one person (me). Don't forget to put the legs on one side FIRST and then tip it back on the legs to put the wheels on second. Adding oil and charging the battery simple. Adding the propane line simple. And it fired up first try. I did put a small and increasing load on it for 10 minutes or so. It seemed to strain and change speeds at a higher load so I backed off the load to 'break it in' as recommended. It is LOUD and seems a bit louder than the old one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid portable generator that can power my entire home!
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2024
The Westinghouse 13000 Peak Tri-Fuel Generator has exceeded my expectations in every way. I bought this generator for emergency backup power, and it's proven to be an invaluable addition to my home. The ability to switch between gasoline, propane, and natural gas makes it incredibly versatile, and it's easy to change fuels depending on what I have on hand.

With 13000 peak watts, this generator easily powers everything in my house, from the lights to the major appliances, without breaking a sweat. It’s been particularly reassuring during storm season when power outages are common in my area.

One of the best features is the electric start with a remote control—no more pulling on cords, which is a relief. The generator runs smoothly and isn’t as loud as I expected for something of this size and power.

The build quality is top-notch, and you can tell that Westinghouse didn’t cut any corners in its construction. It’s heavy, but the wheel kit makes moving it around much easier.

If you’re looking for a reliable, powerful, and flexible generator, this one is worth every penny. It’s an investment in peace of mind, knowing you’ll have power when you need it most.
