I bought this generator last month after my last genny died. After many years of service with my old one, i wanted more power and features. I didn't know what i was missing. Love the tri-fuel option, battery start, huge amount of power and remarkably clear instructions. Can't wait to fire it up today! Will update if anything other than delighted.

Having conducted extensive research on backup generators for my home, I have concluded that this particular model is exceptionally well-suited to my needs, and I am certainly pleased with my choice. It performs admirably, effortlessly powering my entire house. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Did a ton of research and landed on the WGen11500TFc as striking the right balance of capacity, flexibility (multiple fuel sources) and low THD (prevent damage to sensitive electronics). Admittedly, I have only performed the initial 5-hour break in period, so it’s a small sample size. Time will tell if the unit is durable, but so far so good. While varying some light loads during the break-in period, the unit would barely blip, so you can definitely tell that it has huge capacity. I used propane, and it worked flawlessly. Love the fact that I have flexibility to use propane or gas (also supports natural gas). Kudos to Westinghouse for including all of the essential hoses and hookups for natural gas and propane, along with oil and everything you need to get up and running. The most work you need to do is put the wheels and rubber feet on, add oil, and you’re pretty much ready to go. Battery charger included as well. I have a 50 amp inlet, so this generator will give me close to full available capacity to power my house, including some of the larger power hungry appliances. The low THD was a must-have to avoid damaging my electronics, and I really appreciate that Westinghouse makes a number of portable generators that have THD, relative to other manufacturers. I would add that the generator, while heavy, is fairly easy to move and maneuver with the large wheels and handles. Another reason I preferred this generator was the size was much more manageable vs stepping up into the next tier. I wanted something with large capacity, but didn’t want to deal with manhandling a massive portable generator. If I had one gripe, some of the documentation included with the generator seems to be incorrect. On the included quick start/mechanical guide sheet it says the THD is 23%. I’ve seen other reviewers on Home Depot’s site comment on the THD being incorrect on the included documentation for this generator, so it seems to be a known issue. It just makes it confusing for a customer when the documentation is incorrect.

This is my very first generator and I'm glad I made this choice. After carefully reviewing this one and other brands, I decided to go with the Westinghouse unit since the name has a great reputation for reliability. I bought this on July 8th, 2025 shortly after we got two tornadoes at the same time here in Upstate NY just a few weeks prior on the night of June 22nd, 2025. A heat wave was ongoing during the storm and during the power outage that followed and lasted for four days. We lost all our food in the fridge and freezer, and sleeping was difficult due to no AC. I swore I was not going to go through that again and made the decision to purchase a generator, and I'm glad I bought the Westinghouse unit. I haven't had to use it yet but gave it a few test runs and it's a beast, runs solid and very happy with it. It's definitely worth the five-star rating I gave it !

I’ve read a lot of reviews on these since the last hurricane hit Houston. I finally was able to buy one after a month of looking. It’s well built and started on the first try on propane. I look forward to having power the next time we lose it here in Houston.

I live in Florida and have weathered four hurricanes, so I really researched generators before making a purchase decision. The Westinghouse WGen10500TFc stood out as a real value for its power and tri-fuel options, and of course the reliability and quality of Westinghouse!

This is the generator to get a whole house backup power. The unit comes with everything you need to get backup power started. You can't beat the price of this unit and the low THD rating. I had my plumber add a gas line outlet and my electrician install a plug for my panel so this unit can plug right into the house. I hope I don't have to use, but if I do then I should be golden during any storm.

I just received this unit. Very easy to assemble. Instructions are clearly written and easily understood. Started in first try with propane using the fob. Both my neighbor and I thought it was much quieter than expected for such a powerful machine.

There are many reasons you might lose power, from downed trees or power lines from a storm to technical problems with your area’s electrical grid. A large portable generator can provide plenty of power to run the essentials in your home during an outage. Westinghouse Tri-Fuel Home Backup Portable Generator is definitely a major plus to have in your possession.

Unit has not been used intended yet. I unboxed and assembled per instructions. Started right up as expected and sounds fine. Verified output with dvm and ran a few power tools to verify operation. Build quality appears excellent and I haven't seen a documentation package this complete in quite some time. Well done.
