    • ... looking forward for the next power outage
Style: 12500 Watts - Gas Only
Easy setup. Heavy duty, well made machine. Started in two seconds with one touch of the remote. For an 80 year old with heart problems, I am so grateful for the easy start. It is a bit loud; but, I plan to build a sound dampening house for it. Just got it today and looking forward for the next power outage, (which we have too many of in the Pacific Northwest). Thanks Westinghouse and Amazon for the great service. ... show more

    • Great Generator
Style: 12500 Watts - Gas Only
Ran this for 5 hours straight to break in the motor. I thought I ordered dual fuel but turns out it’s gas only. Got as a gift for my hubby. He loves it. He said it’s nice because it is light enough he can still pick it up and put in the bed of his truck. He ordered all the parts to wire in to our main panel. Important to have a lock out switch in this application allowing only the main breaker on or the generator breaker on, never both and never fed through a home outlet. Run 6 gauge wire from panel to twist lock outlet and the use an appropriate cord from your 50 A slot on the generator to the new outlet you wired outside your house from the panel. This is a powerful generator and can be used as we are for backup power for the house as well. Tank holds 6.6 gallons and after 5 hours still had 3/4 tank. Based on that I would expect 16-20 hours backup on a tank depending on usage demand. The remote start is cool but the machine has to be in the on position to operate by remote. Not sure but leaving on for standby seems it would drain the battery. Correct me if I am wrong. Great addition for North West winters and job-site power. Be sure to not get too excited and fire up before adding the included oil and be sure to turn on the fuel valve. I like that there is a removable filter screen in the gas tank. Wheels and supports assemble in minutes! Buying a 40 gal tank to add to my 5 - 5 gallon cans to keep more fuel on hand. This will allow me to have 65 gallons backup to a topped off 6.6 generator tank. That could net over 200 hours of run time! Over a week!!! Not wishing for a power outage but will be cool to test this hulk out. ... show more

    • Works great and seems well made.
Style: 12500 Watts - Gas Only
Had it for a couple of years. Well made and works great. Loud as any other generator. The only issue I had was the exhaust manifold gasket was improperly installed, I just re-installed it correctly.

    • Build quality seems quite good much better than am older Generac I had for many years gave to my son
Style: 12500 Watts - Gas Only
I ordered a one with packaging damage and since it is so heavy and hard to handle basically a forklift item around 200lbs I expected some minor damage as was the case (shipping box was shredded & was not crated with any wood or Styrofoam and acceptable based on what I bought and price which was all easily tweaked to make it look new. Wheels were solid (I hated by pneumatic old Generac ones) & not hard to assemble (I greased the shafts but the wheels came with pairs of sealed ball bearings a big plus) and came with a spark plug tools and combo wrench for the shock mount feet bracket bolts which I Loctited. Simply filling the crankcase with 1.16 qts of 10W-30 oil and plugging the easy harness for the battery together was quick. I like the main breaker and logical order of the controls. Battery 2A charger was included and works. The feature of the push button electronic start (has pull start also) and start/ stop FOB is a gigantic upgrade from the very old Generac I had (that was only pull start and had engine common issue of valve spring retainers (replaced with automotive style thick solid stamped steep cup style cracked as it got heated up running full blast building fencing idle CTRL bypassed and idle control burnt out which was $$, idle solenoid was weak and vibrated so had was not strong enough to hold idle). Anyway this Westinghouse gas only model is made (assembled?) in USA Alabama IIRC which was a but plus. Gas tank capacity is good @ 6.6 Gal IIRC. The large fuel filler cap and screen and tank guage is large and much better than my very old one integrated with the cheesy cap. ... show more

    • Great. Only slight drawback is the output socket placement
Style: 12500 Watts - Gas Only
4/5 stars for the output cord placement. I got this as a whole home generator as we had frequent outages with lightening storms when I first moved in. I haven't had to use it, but I do run it once every few months. Today, we had a scheduled power outage from the power company, and I work from home, so I had to plug it in to my home. ***I recommend you set it up and power your home to test to make sure it all works before you need it!!!** It works, but the big problem is the 30Amp outlet is just above the tire. My cord has a right-angle plug in, so it hits the tire. Fortunately, the tire has a snap pin to come off very easy, and fortunately, it's summer and not -40 with 4ft of snow, which is possible here. If you get this, you'll want a straight cord to avoid having to take the tire off. I got this one on Amazon: GearIT 50-Amp Generator Extension Cord (15 Ft) Inline NEMA 14-50P to SS2-50R Twist Lock Connector STW 6/3+8/1 AWG 125/250V for 50A Power Inlet Box, RV Camper, Generator to House - 15 feet Powers my 4,000 ft house with no issues... granted I'm not doing laundry or dishes but do have several computers running for work, and fridge, freezers etc. ... show more
