I have been familiar.with Westinghouse products

I bought this generator at the end of May but haven't used it yet. But I love the fact it runs on all three gases, I'm looking forward to hooking it up to my natural gas. I say I'm looking forward to using it, not really true. I live in Louisiana and I'm just preparing for an active hurricane season. It will be a lot better with natural gas then fighting gas lines at the stations.

so far so good

After review of past recommendations, I bought this machine to power our house during any power outages. I pulled the plug on the house and this machine powered the entire house including 2 refrigerators, multiple overhead fans, and 3 computers. So far, so good. Thanks.

One wor

I upgraded form the wgen9500df and am a little on the fence on reviewing right now. I just received it a couple days ago and finally had my son come over to help me put it together. Ran the generator and seemed to run a little rough and I connected a lamp and it was dimming off/on. Will reach out to support and see how the support is. Will Update review once this is resolved. This is my second Westinghouse generator and had the wgen9500df since 2020 and has ran without a single hitch so am confident this will get resolved

New to Westinghouse Generators

Living on an acreage, we wanted a large portable generator to power everything. We purchased a Westinghouse WG 20000 and it arrived yesterday. First impressions were favourable. Although it isn't hooked up yet, we took it for a test drive to check the starting procedures, and to ensure it was getting fuel. Everything worked great. I'm sure it will work perfectly in an emergency in case of a power outage.

Just installed, so we will see how it goes

So far so good! I hooked up my home to this generator for emergencies. It seems to have no problem running everything in our home and swimming pool pumps - excluding our A/C and heater. We have a 4,300 sf home. The pool pumps are important in the event of a freeze - they keep the pipes from freezing and busting. I feel much better having this generator in place!!

Best Generator I've Ever Owned

I bought this to run more items in my home during power outages. I have never been happier with a generator! This beast will run many appliances in the home without a struggle, and it's electric (and remote) start to boot! It has a nice digital display and it's very portable for this senior! It is a bit loud, but it's a big boy! Very little odor when running, too.

Home security

I purchased this to provide power backup for my home. I have wanted one but could not justify it on the chance of severe storms or tornados. The current pandemic with it's possible impact on city power supplies finally got me to buy one for self sufficiency.

WGen20000c

This is the biggest portable generator I could find. I have tested it and works great and came with everything besides gas. The biggest issues is getting my house wired to accept this much power and unloading it from the shipping pallets because it is very heavy.

Big Enough To Run The Whole House

This was the biggest CARB compliant generator we could find. We needed it to be able to power our home during the predicted PG&E power outages during fire season. This generator will allow us to run the AC as well as all the other necessary appliances.

A Beast

My neighbor bought this and my electrician recommended this generator. I have a dual panel breakers box so I needed this model. I ran it for about 7 hrs to break it in and have changed the oil and oil filter. Very easy to change. It didn't bat an eye when I tested it hooked up to the house. However it does take it two times to start each time and on one occasion it died and restarted by itself. The life timer on the unit also stopped working after that for some reason. Other than that, it is simple to operate.
