OUTSTANDING

I purchased this generator for backup residential power. Under the threat of a near record cold and snowstorm, my wife and I decided to invest in this unit. All accessories were neatly packed in a skinny cubicle box with all the parts wrapped individually in plastic bags. The oil, wheels, whenches, etc. were all included. (No missing parts). I read the instructions that were well worded and easy to follow, installed the wheels and legs, added the oil, and in my case gasoline, plugged in the battery, selected the fuel type, opened the fuel valve, turned on the switch, pressed the start button on the key fob, and it started right up after the gas made it to the carberator. The feature I like about the key fob is, when you press the start button for 2 seconds, the starter will crank for about 5 seconds, and if it doesent start, it will stop cranking, then pause for about 5 seconds, then crank over again without re-pressing the button. It will continue the on and off cranking sequence until it starts up. The noise level is tolerable. I havent actually connected it to my incoming power panel yet, but I am anxious to try it out.

Perfect for our needs

Bought this generator to feed our home during power outages (hurricanes, winter storms). Also to feed our 5th wheel travel trailer. Arrived in perfect condition. Easy to assemble the few parts that needed to be assembled. Started on first attempt! Checked all voltages and everything works as it should! Easy to move around. Great looking machine!

Best tri-fuel generator I've owned

My old gen died while using it last week during a power outage. Good thing it happened right before hurricane season gets going. This Westinghouse 10500tfc is a beast and runs all my essentials without breaking a sweat. I plan to use only natural gas, with propane as backup. Electric start, keyfob for remote start/stop. Much quieter than my previous one, too

Great features, great price!

I'm able to run my complete 2250 sq. ft. home with this WGen11500TFc generator--even on the Natural Gas setting! Use Propane anywhere away from my house--outstanding and appreciated! It has all the features necessary to make this a standout machine, plus a couple more. All for a price that beats the competition with the same features.

Love the features

Bought this in December 2024. Needed more watts for power outages.Have not got to use it yet for outage. However I do like the features it has. The 3 different fuel supplies will come in handy. Love the remote start. Also like when you choke it to start it, once it starts it self adjusts. Like the safety CO detector. Automatically shuts unit off. Believe its a good investment.

Nice looking and sturdy portable generator

Just unboxed it and put the wheels and stands on it but haven't had a chance to start it up or run through the break-in process. Purchased this to get a little more power from my current generator plus have the option to use any fuel available during a storm of freeze.

Great Features, low THD%.

I bought this to power my whole home during outages, plan to install soft starts on my AC units. I hooked it up to break it in, so far so good. Definitely louder than I expected, if noise levels are a concern I'd recommend looking at inverter generators.

Great Generator

This generator was complete, with a trickle charger, gas charging hose, and oil funnel. The operator's manual is the best I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot of manuals). Just followed the directions and it started right up. I almost can't wait for a power outage. LOL

Well Written Instructions

I unpacked my new generator yesterday and wanted to mention how clear / easy to follow the user manual is. The manual is divided into several chapters. The “Assembly” chapter guided me step by step through the process with clear diagrams and instructions. The “Operation” chapter is also very easy to understand. Since this is a Tri-Fuel, it outlined the steps for each option in a clear approach as well. In addition to the manual – there are step by step stickers on the unit itself that serve as quick reminders. When I looked at the oil fill location – I realized that I would need to get a funnel to reach it. When I went to the box to get the included oil – there was a funnel already there. According to the manual it needs 1.2 liters and the included oil contained 1.2 liters – so I was happy that the unit is sold with all the necessary items included. Although I plan to use natural gas – I connected it to a propane tank, and it started right up and ran great. The scheduled maintenance instructions for oil changes, etc. is easy to follow.

Great Machine for the price

I bought this machine after a snow storm and we didn't have power for a couple days. I hooked it up to my camper to day to test it out and it runs every great without evenings struggling the machine would bog down for a second then just to back to basically idling while running the whole camper. I hope to get years of use from this machine.
