I have bought this a couple days ago to get my family thru hurricane seasons.Another resident in our subdivision has a Westinghouse generator and was very happy with it.All the reviews I have read have given these generators a great rating.I have not used it yet but looking forward to it when the time comes.

I bought this generator in October. After installing a transfer switch and all of the related accessories I was finally able to fire this baby up and see what it could do. Well, it performs just as expected. A few switch flips and I'm able to power all the circuits needed should there be a power outage. Fired right up using the convenient push-button start and ran smoothly. I didn't try the remote control, but, honestly, I can't say that I plan to use it. I did purchase the Westinghouse generator rain canopy. I installed it after the test run, but it appears to fit nicely and will be necessary should I need to use the generator in the rain -- or snow. I did a lot of research before deciding on this generator. Time and time again this generator was ranked the best out there. FWIW, I actually wanted to buy a whole-house battery backup system. But to get the same capacity, those systems are prohibitively expensive. And I didn't want to sink a lot of money into something I might actually use (need) very little. I think I made the right choice. Time will tell.

Just got the generator, it comes well packaged and generally has easy to understand instructions. Most of the maintenance seems pretty straight forward with the exception of the valve clearance checks, which requires some special tools and skill, might see if I can get that outsourced...

Haven't had to use it yet thankfully but is perfect to keep the lights, refrigerators/freezers, water heater and we'll running. All of the connections are straight forward and fits great in my garage until I need to use it. The wheels make moving it easy, certainly is far beyond the PTO driven generator that preceeded it which requires going out and starting the farm tractor, that's only after it's connected to the back and in inclimate weather (which is when the power goes out) isn't a simple undertaking. Thanks to you all at Westinghouse my life has become way more simple! 10/10 -Jack

I just bought this after losing power twice in two weeks out in Houston just to run my AC during hurricane season. Really well made machine, no issues setting it up and came with everything I needed to get started. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs a small standby generator. My only nitpick would be that if you plan to plug it in to a transfer switch you’ll need to buy that cable separately.

Just picked up my Westinghouse 11,500 today ,, the wheels and pegs mounted within 15 minutes.. Ftlled with oil top it off with fresh fuel and stabilizer,,, push star button started on the third try sounded A little clankie for about 5 minutes sound subsided ran for about 40 minutes shut off and I’ve started three more times …still need to Break in and have not put on the load yet but now I’m putting it up ready for any event so far so good that will recommend at this point.

I bought this for emergency backup for harsh winter and summer black outs in texas. Instructions are clear and easy to read. Tested remote start and I have to say it's a feature I think all generators should have. The unit runs smooth and with out a beat it runs my ductless system all lights and more this generator is definitely worth the money. It's a strong sturdy design and very user friendly.

Unfortunately this generator did not arrive until after Hurricane Milton so i can't speak to how well it will perform long term but, we have hooked up to our home and it ran everything perfectly. This model has multiple fuel options which is great because you can use alternative fuel if there's a gasoline shortage. Hopefully we don't have to go thru another major hurricane anytime soon but if/when we do, i feel confident this generator will do the job.

I set this up to run on natural gas. At first it ran rough and then wouldn't start at all. After examining the spark plug, it was found to be loose. After tightening, it started right up and ran fine. Overall, this is a great generator. It would have been nice to include some information about the natural gas supply line requirements. I used a 1/2' black pipe line about 50 feet long. I don't know the pressure at my house.

upgraded from a 5000w DANA generator to get more power and I am amazed how much quieter this unit is, started promptly and powers my whole house.Very easy to move around with the large wheels and sturdy handle. Fulfilled my power needs, thanks for a great generator Westinghouse and I love the remote.
