I received this generator yesterday(4/22/25). It's heavy at 250 lbs.+. Easy to install wheels. foot bumpers and add the included oil. Only going to use propane and was easy to follow basic instructions. A few cranks on the pull rope to get things moving then used the electric start button and zoom it went. After 15 min. idle, I plugged in a 15 amp air compressor which fired right up easily. I was impressed. I ran it for one hour. Today I put on twice the load(30 amps) total and could hear a bit of pull down, but did great for another hour. Happy power. It's more loud than I expected, but not deffening.

Very happy with this purchase. Was without power for 6 days during Helene and borrowed a smaller Westinghouse generator and realized the value of owning one. Now I have a mechanical interlock breaker installed with a 50amp RV plug and now have this monster ready to go. I have tested it out and it performed flawlessly. Highly recommend this generator!

Just purchased and installed the 10500TFc. Started up nice and easy with the start/stop on machine and with key fob. Great feature to have instead of having to pull the starter rope each time! Battery turn off switch is nice to have to save the battery life. My plan is to use this for backup power for the essential needs of our house. Two things I would say so far as a negative is it's difficult to fill the gasoline fuel tank with a portable gas can without spilling. Using an hand pumping or powered pump will work better than tipping the can and pouring. I will be using propane to power this generator as I have a 125 gallon tank that I use for my house. I also have to wheel my generator around on gravel and the plastic wheels make it harder to roll. Rubber tires for me would have been over.

We live in Florida and it is a good idea to have emergency power for use after inclement weather. This generator is powerful enough to operate my HVAC, refrigerator, and many other necessary, electrical items. The remote start allows me to connect the generator to my interlock on the house and be prepared to use the generator when necessary. I was able to Unbox and assemble as required in about one hour.

I live an area where the power goes out frequently. So I have to set up the generator frequently. I love how easy it is to wheel outside, plug it in to my breaker box and push the remote button to turn it on! I have a lot of meat in my deep freezer, so this generator has paid for itself. Saving the food in my freezer and refrigerator is a cost effective and logical reason for the generator but it's also very nice to be able to turn on my lights while my neighbors are stumbling around their houses with a flashlight. Solid product!

We lose power a lot and with my wife's medical equipment it is a must have. Westinghouse is a brand I trust and know. It's definitely worth the money and I don't want to forget the remote start that way if I'm not home she can start it from inside the house. I'm very pleased

I just purchased this unit for my hurricane back power supply, thus far I have not used it as planned. This model was easy to assemble, basically just putting on the wheels and bottom pads. It is easy to operate and started up right away. I plan to add a transfer panel to my breaker box to run my household during outages…I live on the Gulf Coast and we are always subject to hurricanes and severe weather. I hope that I never need to use this generator but I feel much more confident in this brand and model if I do.

After upgrading my home's electrical system and generator line to 50 amps, I ordered the Westinghouse 14500 and I am simply amazed at how easy it is to set up, run, and use. It seems like there was a lot of care involved when engineering the setup process. The remote system is awesome, too. Along with the remote power switch on my house, I never have to step outside during these crazy Louisiana storms! Much less, does my wife and kids have to when I'm gone.

After experiencing a power outage due to the recent Hurricane, I'm confident that this item will keep my freezer and refrigerator running to keep from disposing of lots of food. It also has enough power to allow my central gas heating blower to keep us warn in winter months if we experience another power outage.

Out of the box, it's virtually completely assembled. Wheels are pretty much the only thing you have to put on The documentation/owners manual and the operating instructions that are on the generator itself are super easy to follow. This bad boys's gonna keep the lights on and the AC chill!
