It's a Beast

This generator is all that one could want in a generator. It's a Tri-fuel, giving one many options. It comes with the hoses to run it off propane or natural gas. Well made, with many ports for plugs. The 50 amps is plenty to run a house during power outages. It's easy to put together. There's no way it can be lifted, but the wheels make it fairly easy to mover around on level surfaces. The price point is good. It came with the battery fully charged. Well made and a solid generator. If you plan on moving a generator around a lot, this one may be too big, but if you're looking to keep it in the garage/shed for emergencies, than this would be a great generator to have.

Runs my whole house!

I'll be ready for the next extended power outage with the WGen14500tfc! I piped it up to natural gas and it started on the first attempt. After the 5-hour break-in period, I tested it to see if it would run my entire house and it did easily. This includes my 5-ton central A/C (with soft start), but I didn't run my electric oven or dryer, which I wouldn't do in a power outage anyway. Very happy with the purchase!

GREAT PORTABLE HOME GENERATOR

Bought this generator as Westinghouse was recommended by our electrician. Looking for a size that could power all things needed if/when a power outage would occur. Wanted a Tri-Fuel as this will be set up for natural gas, but have the flexibility to run on regular gas or propane.

Impressive

This is my first generator and so far I am impressed. Once the electrician completed the work in my home electrical panels to use the generator as a backup power source, we tried it out. It started up immediately after connecting it to a propane tank and powered our home. No issues. I'm pleased with my purchase and with the price.

So far so good......

Just received and setup the generator. Overall its a very nice unit. Had my electrician put a hookup on my home to plug this into when power goes out....and I say "when" because it happens too often. Fairly quiet for the engine size, looks good, lots of connections. After setup I ran it for a bit just as a test. My electrician is coming back to test it on the house once my adapter cord arrives. A few items that I noticed while getting this setup which need to be addressed by the design/development team at Westinghouse..... 1. The oil funnel provided is OK but hard to get the angle to the engine fill and oil can spill back out of the provided funnel because the angle is so flat. Why not put an oil fill tube for easier access/filling for a unit at this price point 2. The oil dipstick is difficult to pull and then even more difficult to insert back without a gap that allows leaks. The wire handle is flimsy and this could be so much easier with a better design. 3. The assembly for wheels requires flat washers as spacers between the plastic wheels and step on the axle shaft. However, there is NO space to fit the washers and get the clevis/cotter pins installed so I had to leave the washers off. Just a bad design on this item. 4. Connecting the battery is a pain. The positive was connected already but the ground was not. However, you have to lay on your side on the ground and try to fit your hands inside the frame and feel for the bolt hole to assemble the nut and tighten it down. There is no room for this unless one has lady hands. Moving the battery outward would allow better and easier access to connect the battery ground. Just a few items that I noticed. None are deal killers and some are one time tasks unless/when you have to change the battery. Overall I really like the unit and looking forward to testing on the house this next week. My expectations are high for a quality unit to have as a backup generator.

Bad Generator
1 out of 5 stars review

Not worth the money

My unit ran great the first few times I used it. After the 3-4 time I went to use it, it wouldn't start and if it did only stayed running for a few mins. Took it to factory authorized repair that kept getting same bad part several times. After 2 1/2 months they are finally replacing the unit, I'll never buy another of these.

Nice generator.

I purchased this large generator hoping it would be able to power the 3.5 ton AC. Hooked it up to natural gas and the generator was able to power the AC easily. If it can power the AC it will be able to power both the electric water heater and the well pump and anything else we need powered. I am 78 yrs ,150 lbs. and can easily move the generator into position.

Powerful Generator

Bought last month to prepare for hurricane season here in the Houston,Tx area. Connected to natural gas and ran a test on the house and was able to run both ac units without soft starts and whatever else was on in the house. The generator kept up with the load and never bogged down. I am ready for the next power outage.

Great Generator!

Excellent specifications. Comes with a V-Twin engine. Also comes with propane hose with regulator as well as natural gas hose (mine was missing but they are sending out asap). Additional items include engine oil, battery charger, tool kit with spark plug wrench, and funnel.

Versatile, well built, high quality generator

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!
