Trifuel generator

Just received the generator. After assembling, putting oil in and hooking up to propane for a quick test start, generator started right up. Going to try natural gas next, but anticipate no issues. Real test will be during the next power outage, which I am sure will be here sooner than later. At least this time, I am prepared.

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.

A very mixed bag

I purchased a Westinghouse portable generator about 2 months ago after reading wonderful reviews. The generator I received was tri fuel, which I had ordered, and it did not work with natural gas. Westinghouse told me to try a different spark plug which was ludicrous. They then wanted me to take this 250 lb generator which was supposed to be brand new and bring it to a service center 20 mi away to have them repair it. I purchased a brand new generator and this solution was unacceptable. Fortunately, the retailer that I purchased it from stood up for me and after weeks finally got Westinghouse to agree to send me a new unit. The new unit appears to be functioning just great. Westinghouse policies on new units are abominable. I will never deal with this company again even though this generator is supposed to be one of the best.

Most Bang for the Buck!

I pre-ordered this in August of 2023 and took delivery a couple months later. Due to a lengthy home remodel, I only recently started it up for the first time. This is a solid machine with so much included by way of the included features. I would recommend this generator to anyone.

Great whole house alternative

Bought this almost 9 months ago and recently needed it after a power outage. I was worried after it did not start using NG, but after the third push of the electric start, it fired right up and kept our deep freezer and refrigerator cool with fans and light running on the main floor until the power was restored.

All features you want in a solid package

Bought this a month ago, and it works as expected. Only note is the thing is heavy. Packaging is a concern as you'll see in some other reviews. I had it delivered to the store so I could see it before leaving with it as there are stories of some pretty harsh damages to the generator.

Exceeded my expectations!

Right out of the box, it was easy to set up and start. The instructions were clear, and it ran smoothly during my first test. The power output is impressive, providing enough energy for my home during outages. The build quality feels robust and durable, which gives me confidence in its longevity.

Very powerful! 14500 peak watts!

I purchased this Generator to light up my entire house incase I have a bad hurricane season, gave it a test run and I am amazed at how powerful this Generator is with propane gas. I'd rather have one and not need it instead of needing it and not having one, very good and smart investment!

A quality, supremely engineered product

Bought this because of recommendation from my electrician. Using it as a backup generator for my home. Running on the 50A connection. Manual instructions on setup, installation, first use, and start up were excellent. Tested it running on propane my entire home yesterday. No issues at all. What a great product. Love that you thought of including a funnel for filling the oil.

Only one complaint

Purchased less than a week ago. Went through multiple reviews. Settled on the 11500 model as it was most cost effective and also was a tri fuel platform. Have 3 100lb propane tanks that should keep the generator running for around a week and a half straight if needed. Got it home, tested it out after configuring a transfer switch. Pushbutton start worked like a charm and propane regulator and hose combo supplied with the unit had no issue. Unit fired right up and supplied power with no issue. My only complaint with the 11500 model is the engine does not have an oil filter. This is obviously a design feature/flaw. However, at the price I paid for it I can't really complain. I will be closely monitoring the longevity of the engine.
