I recommend the WGEN14500 portable generator. The tri fuel is a great feature. This generator powers our whole house. We are very happy.
I would recommend this to a friend!

A Generator that Works

The Westinghouse generator I purchased recently, is one of the best choice I’ve made by far. Strong enough to power the entire house. Convenient enough to turn it on/off from the couch using the remote start. I have a natural gas outlet in the back yard so it’s simple connecting the natural gas hose.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very well built heavy duty generator. It’s pretty easy to move around even with the wheels and handle even though it’s very big

So far so good......

Just received and setup the generator. Overall its a very nice unit. Had my electrician put a hookup on my home to plug this into when power goes out....and I say "when" because it happens too often. Fairly quiet for the engine size, looks good, lots of connections. After setup I ran it for a bit just as a test. My electrician is coming back to test it on the house once my adapter cord arrives.
A few items that I noticed while getting this setup which need to be addressed by the design/development team at Westinghouse.....
1. The oil funnel provided is OK but hard to get the angle to the engine fill and oil can spill back out of the provided funnel because the angle is so flat. Why not put an oil fill tube for easier access/filling for a unit at this price point
2. The oil dipstick is difficult to pull and then even more difficult to insert back without a gap that allows leaks. The wire handle is flimsy and this could be so much easier with a better design.
3. The assembly for wheels requires flat washers as spacers between the plastic wheels and step on the axle shaft. However, there is NO space to fit the washers and get the clevis/cotter pins installed so I had to leave the washers off. Just a bad design on this item.
4. Connecting the battery is a pain. The positive was connected already but the ground was not. However, you have to lay on your side on the ground and try to fit your hands inside the frame and feel for the bolt hole to assemble the nut and tighten it down. There is no room for this unless one has lady hands. Moving the battery outward would allow better and easier access to connect the battery ground.

Just a few items that I noticed. None are deal killers and some are one time tasks unless/when you have to change the battery. Overall I really like the unit and looking forward to testing on the house this next week. My expectations are high for a quality unit to have as a backup generator.
