Large and powerful
on August 29, 2020
Posted by: Anonymous
from Chesapeake VA.
Set up was very easy, nothing was damaged and all parts were included. You have to fill oil, which was provided. the first time starting was with gas and it started with no issues. I used propane and the engine sounded a little strange, there may be some setting that need to be adjusted or the regulator may need to be broken in. The unit is large but is easy to move with 5 gal of gas in the tank. I gave it 4 stars because of the sound it made with propane.
I would recommend this to a friend!

WGen12000DF: Has features not in description
on November 6, 2020

from Wilsonville, AL
I bought this generator for home use when the power goes out. I replaced an extended life generator from another brand that finally died during the power outage we just had here in AL. I shopped for several days to find an extended life dual fuel generator with a pressurized oil lubrication system and filter. I could not locate one and finally decided to purchase this generator for its features, less than 5% THD, and run time. Nowhere in the description for this generator, nor in any of the photos, does it indicate that this generator has pressurized oil lubrication. When it arrived yesterday we were amazed and absolutely thrilled that it has this feature. If this is emphasized in the advertisements and description Westinghouse would probably sell a lot more of these generators. We prepped it and then started it inside a metal storage building. Yes we know that we should have been outside. We were surprised and impressed that it was so quiet that we could actually talk to each other beside the generator in a metal building. We were impressed that the muffler was so large. Really happy with our purchase.

Great functionality and capability

Overall this is a great unit. I also own a Generac GP15000E. All things being equal, I think the Generac is better built and will most likely have a longer life. However, this unit has dual fuel capability, smart switch technology, remote start, and a battery charger. All are the reasons, I went with this unit, and I'm not disappointed.

The 30 amp circuit breaker switch is broken
on March 24, 2021
Posted by: none987
from Lake Charles
I just bought this. It was very well packed. Setup was easy and uncomplicated. Added oil & fuel and it started right up. I tested all of the outlets. They all operated except the 120/240V AC 30 amp outlet. The 30 amp circuit breaker switch immediately above it is broken. I will contact Customer Service to see about repairing it.

Clean power, Powers my whole house 5ton A/C
on March 26, 2021

from Fort Worth, TX
Purchased after Texas power outage (FEB. 2010). Wired it into my service panel and it carries most everything. Runs TV, computers, fridge, freezer, wifi, washer, dish washer and all the LED lights I need. A wonderful generator. Would have given anything to have had it before the blizzard. Could even power clothes dryer IF you turn off the 5 Ton A/C while doing it. TREMINDOUS!!!! My model is the Wgen9500... Seems I couldn't see my exact unit.
