After simple assembly; tires, lift bar, and attaching the battery, it started right up. I recommend High Octane gas (93 or above). Ensure you read the instructions, step by step. Oil is provided. It is very heavy. However, the trailer arms make it so much easier to move. :-). My first Westinghouse generator. I am completing a whole home load test (1800 square feet) it should do fine. Remote starter is very convenient, and starts the generator from a good distance.

I just received this generator. Set up was easy if you follow the manual. When adding oil make sure you do so incrementally. My unit had a little residual oil from the factory, so you likely won't need the whole quart. Pairing the remote was a breeze and start up was easy. After the break in period I will update this review. So far I am very pleased with my purchase.

I just purchased this for home backup and shop use and have only run it a little. My plan is to connect it to the house natural gas and use that as much as possible. This thing will easily run everything in the house, even though it has to be derated due to the altitude. It seems very well built and uses quality components. I like the paint finish too, nicely done. It is very convenient that they included the oil and the battery with the unit, which makes it possible to complete the setup and get it running as soon as it arrives.

Just moved to Florida and within the first six months had multiple hurricanes come through. Bought a generator that was supposed to be able to run the necessities of my home but just didn't keep up. So I got a 14500tfg. One thing I noticed immediately when I got it unboxed was how easy it was to put together. They did a great job with packaging and getting this thing ready to go almost instantly out of the box. Looks great, hopefully I'll never have to use it but if I do, I feel like it's gonna do a good job

I live in a luxury RV in the FL Panhandle and I wanted a generator that could handle 3 air conditioners, washer/dryer, refrigerator, and everything else in the event of a power outage. The dual fuel provides an excellent option in case gasoline becomes scarce. We thing we are now prepared for any electrical outage. Excellent product! Thank you!

Bought this a month ago and now have peace of mind for the next outage. Any more, it seems we lose power multiple times a year so having this generator will ease the burden of power loss. I also have a special needs child and need electronic equipment to keep her fed and monitored. This generator will solve all these problems.

I am born and raised in Florida and have been through countless hurricanes. Power can be down for weeks and even months. I needed something powerful and reliable, and so far this generator fits the bill. Have not tested it for an extended period of time but this thing crank right up first try. The remote start is an appreciated bonus. This generator gives me the ability to run my entire house with a/c, minus the drier and oven. As a mechanic, I cannot emphasize enough how important the break-in process is. It requires several oil changes with unloaded and loaded power cycles. There is little to no information about this process in the manual and the choke settings explained in the instructions is wrong, but common sense should prevail as it is an obvious typo. I absolutely love the tri fuel capabilities. When the power is out you will not be able to refuel if you run out. Having the ability to use propane when that happens is a game changer. Get you several 14 gallon fuel totes, fuel stabilizer, a cover for the generator and properly rated extension cords if you're not hooked to your panel. Obviously keep the generator as far away from windows and doors as possible. All together I rest easy knowing my family is prepared if and when another storm hits. I have owned Westinghouse in the past that was unfortunately stolen, but I find this brand to be of high quality and dependable. I definitely recommend this generator.

Product was quickly delivered and packed very well. Haven't had long enough to test out so that's why I give the 4 stars and not 5. I did run for 1 hour unloaded to start the break in period and took a few remote starts to allow fuel to reach the system and then generator did run smoothly. So far so good. Time will tell!

Provides more than enough power for my rv. Is a bit finicky about starting. Only had for 6 weeks and had problems w the clicker and now I have to run a smaller generator to charge the battery so it will start. but I'm still getting start issues. now it says needs maintenance. Cleaned the spark arrestor and plug. Getting co2 warnings when under a roof against a wall. Not enclosed.

My unit ran great the first few times I used it. After the 3-4 time I went to use it, it wouldn't start and if it did only stayed running for a few mins. Took it to factory authorized repair that kept getting same bad part several times. After 2 1/2 months they are finally replacing the unit, I'll never buy another of these.
