Overall, I'm happy with the generator so far. It starts easily with the pull cord, and I like the flexibility of having a tri-fuel generator for emergencies. The main downside I've experienced is that the electric push-button start hasn't worked properly. The battery appears to have arrived low, so I'm troubleshooting that issue. Other than that, it seems like a solid option for hurricane preparedness and keeping essential appliances running during a power outage. I'll update my review after I get the electric start working reliably.

I bought this generator to replace an older smaller unit that was 12 years old. Looked at several manufacturers and glad I chose Westinghouse. I am impressed, Westinghouse supplies a product the way it should be supplied. Everything you need is included in the package, wheel kit, battery, battery charger, oil, funnel and a tool kit. The battery charger is a nice charger that has a red led when charging and it turns green when the battery is charged. After charging I put the oil and gasoline in the generator and started it. Started easily and ran perfectly with a display that you can cycle through displaying voltage, frequency and hours. I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend the Westinghouse generator over any other brand I looked at. I did replace the stabilizers with two locking swivel casters to make it easier to roll the generator into place for storage.

I just received my new Westinghouse generator and just got the wheels and front foot pads installed. I connected the two battery cables but have not plugged in the battery charger yet. I hesitate to start it because of my own insecurity being this is the first generator I have ever owned or been around. I admit it would be worth it if a tutorial were available even if it cost. At any rate I am thrilled with it and eager to get familiar with it. I guess the only way is to go ahead and put oil in it and gas it up.

We really like the bigger wheels on this model as compared to our previously owned Predator. It helps to move it on all kinds of terrain we work on for our remodeling business. We also like the open sides, the Predator would get really hot. We can't wait to use it on our next project that calls for it.

I purchased this generator to use with a 40 amp Generlink from Black Hills Energy in SD. When running on propane it provides 9500 running watts which is the exact amount to be paired with the generlink. Very affordable option for a whole home backup generator and it can be used for many other uses. 5 stars from me!

Congratulations on your new Westinghouse generator! It's fantastic to hear that you not only received the generator you wanted but also a free upgrade. The reliability and durability of Westinghouse products are well-known, and it's great to know that you feel confident in its performance. Having a dependable generator can truly provide peace of mind during power outages. Enjoy your new purchase, and thank you for sharing your excitement!

i just purchased this item a and i have not had to use it yet. but we did run it plug items into it so we could see how it worked. and so far we love it it is not as load has are other one and we like we can use different fuel and the unit was outside are garge and i went into are living room and the remote still started the unit.

We are very excited about having this generator! We recently upgraded our HVAC system and, not realizing our Craftsman generator could no longer handle the new higher watt surge needed for AC startup, we scrambled to find a larger generator capable of running the whole house -- and the larger HVAC unit. We were sold when we saw the surge watt rating for the Westinghouse (we'd been out of power and water for 48 hrs at this point and wanted something with the muscle needed to get things back to normal quickly). What pleasantly surprised us was learning that our Westinghouse was not only capable of running on 3 DIFFERENT FUEL TYPES but had a remote start! As fate would have it, once we got it home and set up, the power came back, but I'm resting comfortably now knowing the next time the power goes out (and it frequently does!) we'll be ready!

The 10 500 TFC looks like a great machine, bought this to replace a smaller one to help us get through the when the storms come calling. Had a lot of current failures in the last 2 years. I especially like the remote start the co monitor the USB ports the electric start and the battery charger included. Looks Like a very nice machine

All looks good but the remote key fob was not included as described in parts list. I will inquire and am sure they will send me one
