I love this generator. It is powerful enough to power my entire home just like a standalone home generator, but it's portable. So I can use it for my RV at my home or on the road. Also, come in handy around the farm when you need electricity to operate power tools for any project.

I bought this unit 2023 so it's still under warranty. Mechanair is unable to provide a service center to me to have my unit repaired. It's no longer producing power though the engine works fine. I run a sprayfoam business and the downtime has cost me 20k in lost revenue. Given no other options I've had to buy a new unit to replace the broken one and now I'm having problems with that one too. I've bought these machines with a three year warranty. I deserve a working machine.

Still need to hook up our natural gas connection, this unit replaces a gas only 9500 which performed well for our whole house including AC, but it bogged a little when the AC would kick in, so I went with this unit since it has more surge capacity. I will say the engineer that thought the battery with a nut/bolt terminal was a good idea should rethink that. Big hands trying to hold that nut and put the bolt on led to more time chasing the loose bolt than actually putting the entire thing together. Not that I'm looking forward to another outage, but we will be more than ready, maybe the wife will be able to wash clothes during the outage too!

I bought this after hurricane Helene to replace a 20+ year old Coleman 6250. I wanted one big enough to run my whole house, well and central air conditioner so I wouldn't have to switch stuff on and off which is fine for a dot or two but when you're without power for weeks that gets old quickly. Hope this one last like my Coleman has and it's nice that this Westinghouse has a 3 year warranty.

I live in Southeast Texas so dealing with hurricanes is something that folks around here just learn to do. I've had a 5500 watt generator for years, that worked just fine in a pinch to run fridges and freezers, a few lights and a window unit, but with that came extension cords ran throughout the house and only one room that was comfortable. After the derecho winds that hit us this year and then Hurricane Beryl, each causing power outages that lasted a week, I was fed up with dragging extension cords and having to choose what was going to be powered and what wasn't. I really wanted the 20 kw tri-fuel but since they are still not available, I opted for the 14.5 kw Westinghouse. Ordered it in September and got the good news last week that it was being shipped, got it this morning, 11/1/24, put the tires on, added oil, hooked up the natural gas hose and let her rip. Ran it in for about an hour with no load. I had previously wired in two breakers (50 and 30 amp) to feed the breaker panel. Shut off the incoming power from the lines and connected the cords. Had also previously installed a soft starter on my 5 ton HVAC unit. That piece alone dropped my LRA on the compressor from 107 amps to about 29 amps during startup. Normal running amps is around 7. Anyway, I was able to power the entire house including AC and pool pump. The only item I didn't try was the electric dryer. Worse case, I'll just make sure the pool pump is off before running the dryer. All-in-all, very pleased with my purchase. With my luck, I'll never lose power again but am ready if I do. Hope this review helps.

I purchased the 28,000 this season because it's one of the only portable generators capable of powering my entire property. I like that I can run the house off the 50amp outlet and run the well pump off the 30amp outlet at the same time.. without over working the machine. Now this is not a long term review, because I have not ran the machine longer than the break in period. But my unboxing, assembly and break in of what I received has been impressive. The packaging is proper, on a hand built wood platform, adequate for the massive size and weight. The assembly was simple and not full of unnecessary steps to get the generator ready. This is important, because maybe you need power immediately and don't want to fart around.. and I like that the machine came with a quality break in oil, looks like a Castrol product. The first start up was without issue. And for a 999cc engine, this thing is surprisingly quiet. So far I am very pleased. I have faith that the quality I feel in my hands, will be dependable when the power is out. Don't plan to lift this without 4 of your best men.. your gonna need an equipment hook.

Our generator arrived on week 3 no power. We are now into week 4 & can charge our phones without letting the car run, we not only have water, but hot water, & toilet flushing without hauling water. Today we are going to work on what part of our home we need to energize to get our directv and Starlink up and running, oh and I ran the dishwasher! Little things we took for granted. Great product, I would recommend. For reference, our home is ~4K sq ft, our hot water heater is 70 gallon geothermal/electric, which heated fully in half an hour. We have 100% LED light bulbs, & 2 electric heat pumps that we have not yet used. We are leaving our full size freezer off for the time being, but our refrigerator/freezer is now cold, we may stock a few items. We have an electric range, but will continue to use propane grill and camp wood stove. To us newbies it's a learning process, but again, we are very happy with our purchase.

Bought this generator for home/ business. Had a smaller generator but wanted something to run the house. Just came through hurricane Helene here where the hurricane made land. This has kept things running. Love the remote fob. I have worked around Westinghouse turbine generators for years. Decent on fuel usage. Hopefully it will hold up to those standards.

Just got this week. Easy to use. Started quickly. Good directions that are easy to follow.

Runs good, makes electricity, kinda loud but powerful
