First Generator ever but seems solid

I've never owned a generator before but wanted to get one "just in case" for the Florida hurricane seasons or summer thunderstorms if the power is out for too long. I bought this during the Florida sales tax holiday and on sale after researching generators since earlier in the year. This unit is heavy, so it's challenging to load and unload manually but the easy to assemble feet and wheels makes it much better to move around with the built-in handle. I only fired it up once, on propane, and it started quickly and runs a bit quieter than expected. The unit seems very sturdy with solid wheels and I like the feature of the digital meter on-board which gives details of output, hertz, running time, etc. I plugged in a small fan just to run something on it and of course it was fine. I bought this large of a unit because I plan to run it on natural gas which gives the least output but rated at 8500 watts even on NG, I think I should get all I need (if I ever need it). Overall, it seems to be a nice unit and I expect it will stay nice as long as I never have to use it with gasoline (which is kind of why I bought this Tri-Fuel model).

Solid Generator

I have been wanting to buy a generator to use as a backup power source in the case we every have a power outage. After reading reviews and deciding on the appropriate wattage I selected this one and have been satisfied so far. I haven't used it for an extended period of time yet but it fired right up and seems to be of high quality.

Getting Ready

We live in FL, power outages are something we have to deal with every hurricane season we have not had to use this Generator yet but after extensive research I believe this Generator will do everything I ask it to do. Looks to be well built and user friendly.

Westinghouse - WGen10500TFc

Product is perfect for our emergency power needs, easy uncrating, easy assemble, started right up on first attempt with propane. Put a AC on plug to pull a loud voltage meter to familiarize myself with gauge panel. Nature Gas is my choice for engine operation. Do not intend to run Gasoline but will have it on hand if needed. Easy to move, have portable use with extension cords and I have it home hardwired for safe use. Feel at ease knowing I have backup power when needed for the family and pets. Serves our emergency use at 1/3 the cost compared to Auto Generators.

Great generator

We bought this generator because it has so many great options for our lifestyle. We have just completed our break in period with gasoline and no issues so far. Our next test will be using propane. At some point we're going to have it connected to natural gas. Be sure to read the quick start guide because for gasoline, both fuel selectors for need to be set.

Packed with features, this one has it all!

I love this generator. I'm a big fan of the quick connector that enables easy switching between Propane and Natural Gas for portable vs fixed placement scenarios around my home. The push-button start/stop is nice and fully automated, meaning it seems turn over a few times until my gas line saturates with gas and then starts. I love that it has a trickle charger for the battery too! Finally, since this unit has a NEMA 14-50R, I should be able to charge my Tesla with the factory mobile charger, if ever needed. While I'm a little nervous to try this, I'm sure I will at some point…

Perfect

I purchase this generator after Hurricane Helene. I had a smaller 3400 watt gen that saved our food and provided some of the necessary power requirements but did not connect to my prewired home source. (My bad for not getting what I needed to begin with) This new gen set provides all the connections that we need to power our needs.

Great features , Great price

I bought this tri-fuel generator about a month ago and really love the product. Easy to put together and easy to use. I did a lot of research on generators last year and wanted to buy this one but was sold out during hurricane season but it was sold out everywhere I looked. Waited until this year to purchase and am glad I did

Straightforward Assembly

The generator was packaged efficiently and effectively. Mine came with a small gash on the exterior box, but because of their diligence the generator was unharmed. The quick start guide was easy to follow and I had everything assembled and test ran the generator in under 45 minutes. The remote and electric start is a great feature too.

Everything I imagined

Bought this for a whole house back up generator to replace a 5000 watt generator. It was easy to assemble (just wheels add oil and the front feet). This generator is well built and heavy duty. I ran it to a propane tank and stood in the house used the remote to fire it up. Started up put a small load on it and it ran great. Its as loud as a riding mower when standing next to it which I expected. It seems to be quieter then the 5000 watt generator I'm replacing. But its not to bad from inside the house. I will be hooking this up to natural gas and wiring it into the house with a manual transfer switch in the next couple days. It should be able to run enough things in the house to keep me us comfortable and not worry who open the fridge or saying they are to hot or cold. Hopefully I never have to use it other then starting it occasionally and maintenance on it but feels good knowing its there.
