This generator is not only the best investment we bought but now we have a piece of mind when our power goes out. We just went through Helena with a small generator that got us through but now with this beast we can power our whole house and not worry about overloading and cords running all over the house. We are getting this hooked up to the house so it will always be ready when needed. Thanks Westinghouse!! Btw runs like a dream and absolutely love that we can use gas or propane. Isn't very loud for how big it is.

Recently purchased the WGen14500dfc and it is an absolute beast of a generator. After breaking the generator in gave a good real world test. Running through an panel interlock kit I was able to do a test run which amazingly it power my entire house. Two mini split heat pumps, oil furnace, well pump, three refrigerators, 2 freezer, security cameras system, and entertainment system. Never showed signs of of struggling at all, even when I flipped on the electric hot water heater towards the end to see if it could. Also was powering a detached garage as well during testing. Break in period of 5 hours at around 25% to 40% load and then 40 minutes of probably maxed out at times during testing hooked into the home panel. It appears it roughly consumed close to 7 gallons which falls pretty much close to specs. While running the entire house all sensitive electronics power up with zero issues including a router that doesn't even power up of the power is dirty. Zero flickering or pulsing of LED lights throughout the house. Definitely a two person job unpacking and getting of the pallet which it is secured to very well. Assembly is pretty easy by just attaching the lifting bar and the wheels which can be done while it's on the pallet. Generator itself appears well designed and of good quality components. Oil filter, dipstick, and oil fill cap are easily accessible which makes it easy to maintain. Sound level seems to be slightly less than competitive brands. The V twin sounds so much better than a single engine generator that I've owned in the past. So far the WGen14500dfc appears to be a solid back up source when the power goes out comparable to a permanent standby generator. With the ability to be connected directly to your propane system too.

Arrived as advertised. After a few steps, fully operational. Started right up and passed all electrical tests. 5 star as generator, lowered to 4 due to wheel placement interference with battery access and 50A plug. While not used extensively yet, idles at acceptable noise level but noisier than expected at low amp draw.

Here is the Wgen 9500 next to my Wgen 12000. Started right up. I bought the 9500 from Amazon and it was not on a pallet and was beat up where the shipper rammed a forklift through the box. The 12000 bought from Lowes was on a pallet and in pristine condition. No more dark nights for me.

Very impressive generator as far as size and features for the money. Ordered from a big box store and was packaged well and undamaged. Minimal assembly. Took a bit to get/stay running, but runs great now. Looks well built. I plugged in my freezer, fridge, pellet grill and coffee maker at the same time with no issues

Generator is strong and works for the application that we use it for. Handles a surge well. Only problem that I have encountered is the oil sensor has some issues. I check the oil everyday that the machine is used and unplugged the oil sensor and have had "0" issues.

Purchased because of multiple storms leading to power outages recently. Works great to provide power to needed household appliances in those cases. Also great for using around the farm in places where there is no power. No issues so far, happy with my purchase.

An electrical contractor that I hired to install a transfer switch recommended this generator. The contractor purchased and delivered the generator at the time of installing the transfer switch. So far no complaints, seems like a feature rich generator that will be reliable years to come.

I bought this generator because it was still portable and had a big enough rating to run my whole house, it is duel fuel (gas or propane) and has a remote control to start it from inside the house I have not had an opportunity to try it out during a power outage yet , but I am sure it will be used shortly, winter has not left us yet

I love this generator. It is powerful enough to power my entire home just like a standalone home generator, but it's portable. So I can use it for my RV at my home or on the road. Also, come in handy around the farm when you need electricity to operate power tools for any project.
