This is a beast. Weighs over 500#. You're not going to casually pick it up & move it around. I bought it to run a welder through, & I'm going to have to find a plug-type converter. The welder is a 3 prong plug & the 50 amp receptacle is a 4 prong female. Seems solid and reliable, but haven't used it much yet. I have the WGen 9500 little brother & it has been great, have used it a lot.

I bought October of 2019. I was a little Leery about the purchase by some of the reviews about battery issues. But when I took it home I had no problems of the such. Fire on second attempt and seems to work well. A little loud but it was Expected for a generator of that size. Appears to be well built.

Have just had electrician install the connection to the house and started the generator. Added oil and fuel and it started readily. The generator comes with a charger and it should connect to the Control Panel but there is no hole to insert. Hopefully Westinghouse will respond and send someone to rectify the panel. Under ASSEMBLY on page - 12 under contents It advises 2 washing machines - - which should be 2 washers. Again hopefully Westinghouse will rectify their user manual. Too early to tell how good it is as winter still here and no outages yet. Thank you - Peter.

I just received my generator on July 1st and had to use it on July 8th. Worked perfect so far. Will test the true capacity later as I was only able to use extension cords this time but will have it running on the larger 50 amp output next time. Works great on gas and propane. Although the propane did not last as long as suggested but gas lasted longer than suggested.

Instead of getting the super big Generac one (which requires a huge propane tank install) we decided to buy this one it was the best investment we ever did. We have a well so when the electric goes out we don't have any water. So it's really important especially since the last power outage was 18 hours. We had the electrician put an outside outlet so we will be able to use everything inside except the heat pump. Now if you want your heat pump then you're going to have to go to a bigger model. But we didn't feel that was necessary because we have a propane stove to keep us warm in the winter and we have fans in the summer. This is a really good product and easy start which I was worried about. Remote start! 👏👏👏

I have already used this generator during a power outage. Enough capacity to power refrigerator, stove top, microwave, freezer, hot water heater, and several plugs and lamps. Easy to start. One feature I wish it had is a backup pull cord start. So keeping battery charged for electric start is important.

Its a little too early to tell but the machine is as described. It was well packaged but arrived with the sealed battery leaking and a small mess to clean up. I am working with the warranty dept now. Since we are in the middle of covid calls are not answered promptly. The frame needed to be squeezed a bit with a ratchet strap to install the lifting bar on top, but no big deal. I was happy to see it came with a batter as not all generators do. Assembly was easy and the machine started right up on Propane. Gas not tested yet. Running voltage was low but I have not put a load on it yet.

Received yesterday and as apropos as it is the power went out shortly thereafter. Prepped her for her first run (easy) and hooked her up to a recently installed transfer switch and she powered the whole house, outbuilding, well pump and AC seamlessly! I decided to go with this portable vs. a more costly permanent placement and am very happy with my decision.

I purchased the WGEN 12000DF a week ago and have set it up and run it. Everything went great with the setup and running. The only issue I have is the lift bar is too short for the frame opening. This does not interfere with using the generator and I will check with Westinghouse as to a resolution to this. Overall I am extremely happy with my purchase and will recommend it to others.

After doing extensive research into the world of portable generators - I ran across a comparison chart. The chart gave exceptional insight on. 10 different generators. At the top of the list was the Westinghouse. I am glad I went with this purchase and the peace of mind that it will perform in an emergency is comforting.
