Between owning a WGen3600DFc and this one, they both are on the heavy side so a two person lift is recommended. I like the protective covering on this model unlike the open body on the WGen3600DFc. I have not used this one yet but I expect to have the same results as my other generator. I bought this one as it runs in less fuel but for longer. Both generator are relatively the same size.

I bought this generator during the emergency preparedness tax free weekend. I had a Generac 6500 portable generator but needed higher output and the flexibility to run off of natural gas. This is a great generator with low THD that integrates perfectly into my home electrical system!

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.

Did a lot of research, W/house gens had a lot of positive reviews and features. It is a heavy beast but was packaged very well and unpacked easily. Followed the quick start sheet and danged if it didn't start right up on propane. Used 2 space heaters and they didn't even phase it. Shut down, programmed the very convenient remote and then ran it on gas. Started right up on the second attempt (all automatic by the way). Tried the idle control and after a short delay it kicked in. Hoping if I do need it the reliability will be there. It ain't cheap but hopefully worth it.

I bought this to power house in case of outage, tri fuel keeps us with power no mater what happens, set up was easy and fired right up on propane, still in break in period and am going to try natural gas as I plan on that fuel as primary, this size is perfect for full 50 amp capacity. Plus this unit has a clean sine wave. Highly recommended

Just got it yesterday, fired it up today .. started immediately… have not ran a load yet. But will, after the break-in period… unfortunately I have to run it for at lease 5 hours before I can put a substantial load on it.. but will have that done in a few days.. no problem

We cranked it up when it arrived last summer( We live in SW Florida) and didn't need it (thank God) for hurricane season last year. Storm warning came in last night, so we cranked it up and after 3 attempts on the electric starter, she fired up! Let her run for an hour and she ran fine. We DID a test to our transfer switch / plate and ran the whole house for a few minutes and barely a drop in power. Our home is 2200 under air :)

J'ai acheté ce produit en août 2022 L'électricien est venu installé le 10 déc 2022 Le produit est performant et conforme aux spécifications. Seule problème le démarreur est défectueux déjà le be dix ne fait ce qu'il doit faire à l'occasion donc on doit changer le démarreur!

After days of online reviews and recommendations from friends we decided to make the purchase. This product is solid nothing cheap about the generator. I have never owned one until now. Right out the box its powers up, just add oil, fuel and starts up. its is heavy buy easy to maneuver once the wheels are installed. Tri fuel option is a great feature.

Bought the WGEN14500DFc generator just before Christmas 2024 as a whole house backup power solution. Just now completed the test this February 2025. This unit will power my whole home including 2.5 ton/45,000 BTU American Standard HVAC unit w/easy start and all other electrical components in my home. I connected this through a 50 amp outlet plug hooked up to my circuit panel. The test was performed using unleaded gas.
