Almost Everything As Expected From Advertisement
on November 21, 2021
Posted by: Ivanhoe
from North Louisiana
Big, heavy, no joking generator. Ran nearly everything from 3400 sqft, 2 story home:water heater, oversized gourmet double refrigerator, stove (yes baking), lighting, and microwave. Upstairs 2 ton heat and air unit bogged it down. Turned off upper ac/heat, then lower 3.5 ton was too much, flipped generator breaker (all this through house 40 amp generator breaker!!)
So, no brainer, we plan to utilize fireplace and 1-3 space heaters in winter.
Downsides:
-LOUD, btw..., cannot operate home on idle mode.
-No wifi data software interface for wattage/amp pull/usage.
-50 amp breaker on generator seem flimsy and not rugged as with other home transfer switches or otherwise.

Can't beat the price

We did our research across all generators and this meets our needs, and you can't beat the price! Easy to maneuver and put together. My 8 year old installed the wheels after shipping. Only downside was 3rd party shipper rescheduling but that's an amazon/drop shipping issue, not Westinghouse.

Power for the house

I purchased this generator for power to the house during outages this winter. The power companies say we will probably have them again this winter.

Smart Buy

I reviewed a lot of generators over many months and this one kept appearing on different Best Generators lists. The perks are the power, performance display screen, and push button and remote start. The article that impressed me the most was the line that said, Sometimes you want things that just work. That clinched it so I bought it.

Impressive!

We ordered this online, and were very pleased with how quickly it was delivered! There are several features that we really like, including Dual Fuel and Remote Start. Also has 713 cc V-twin OHV 4-stroke engine, overload protection, and multiple hookups from 50 amp to usb ports. The handles and wheels make it portable. Plus there's also a lifting bracket.

High quality product!

Received my WGen 12000DF today and it arrived perfectly shipped and in pristine condition. It was only a few simple steps (attach the wheels, add oil and gas, and attach the battery) before my new generator was up and running. Runs smooth, supplies plenty of power from it's many receptacles, and isn't loud. Next step is a transfer switch for the house and I'm complete and ready for the winter. Thank you for the high quality product!

Thumbs Up
on November 12, 2021

from Houston, TX
Has all of the right features, idle control, all variations of electric output, remote start, oil drain line to reduce mess during oil change, dual fuel and best of all, 5% or less THD. Appears to be well made and will serve its purpose for years to come. Everything included to run right out of the box. Easy setup. Started on propane first try and runs good. Delivered literally weeks ahead of scheduled delivery date! Five stars given based on comments provided. Reliability yet to be proven, but anticipate no issues based on first impression.
