Big enough for the house
on September 5, 2019

This was the largest portable generator I could find (12,000/15,000 running/peak watts) to run my house during power outtages. It will power everything except my 3-ton A/C and the wife's hair dryer. : ) Everything I looked at that was larger was non-portable (and a lot more expensive).
Pros:
* Extra long handles and large wheels makes for easy moving/positioning.
* Handles fold down for efficient storage.
* Remote push-button starter really helps the Mrs. get it going when I'm away.
* Transfer-switch ready plug made it super easy to connect to house transfer box.
* Cost of generator vs. power produced is hard to beat.
* 3-Year warranty out of the box.

Cons:
* It's loud, especially when running in the early evenings. I wish there was an option to install a quieter muffler and/or longer exhaust pipe to direct the noise up and out.
* Made in China. We'll see how well it stands up over time.

Powerful and Easy to Use
on September 1, 2019

Due to fires in the recent years our power company might be turning power off in the future to prevent fires on hot windy days. Since the outages can last for several days we decided to get a generator to make sure we have power for all the essentials that we need. It turns out that the WGen12000 can easily cover what we need. We've tested it several time over the summer and it is easy to use and works great. We hope we never have to really use it - but we're glad we got it.

quality and shipping execution near perfection

Westinghouse executed the design and development of this generator 100% to my expectation. Shipping was very well thought out to minimize assembly time and effort. Lifting the heavy generator out of the nest and above the wood blocks was difficult. This could be improved by attaching the vertical wood blocks with screws to make them removable. Function of the generator was perfect. Very pleased with my purchase decision.

So far so good

This is the 2nd Westinghouse generator I’ve purchased. Both have been as pictured with very easy instructions for assy and operation. For 12,000 watt it’s quieter than my older 4000W Onan genset. It’s been running small power tools for a breakin period, then will be hooked up with a transfer switch for emer house power.
