## Description

For your toughest power needs, the Westinghouse WGen14500 portable generator produces up to 18,000 peak watts and 14,500 running watts. The heavy duty 713cc 4-Stroke OHV Westinghouse V-Twin engine has a cast iron sleeve and runs for up to 16 hours at 25% load on a 10.5 gallon gasoline tank, keeping you powered all day or night with a built in fuel gauge and automatic low oil shutdown. Smart Idle lowers idle speed with no load to enhance fuel efficiency and extend run time. There is one 120/240V 14-50R 50A outlet and one 120/240V L14-30R 30A outlet. Both are transfer switch and interlock kit ready so they can power major appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, sump pumps, as well as lights and entertainment centers at once with a single cord hookup. It also has a 120V L5-30R 30A outlet, two GFCI 120V 5–20R 20A standard duplex outlets and two USB ports. At less than 5% THD, you can safely power electronics like computers, phones and TVs. Copper windings help the unit produce cleaner power, run cooler and last longer. Push button electric start and remote start make powering up easy. A VFT data center shows voltage output, frequency and lifetime hours for real time information and maintenance alerts. Easily portable with never flat wheels, reinforced steel handles and lift bar, it’ll have your house, travel trailer or jobsite powered in seconds. Backed by a 3 year limited warranty, lifetime tech support and our Westinghouse Nationwide Service Network.

Review: Powerhouse that's easy to start - So far this generator has worked great when I needed it. Its VIery powerful, the power comes with noise but the fact that you have this power push button start is very nice too.
Review: Excellent Product - Westinghouse generator was shipped promptly and arrived on schedule. The Packaging was excellent and it arrived undamaged, or even blemished. Minor and Very simple assembly, and prep work. I have not run this generator yet (need to prep some gas with fixer solution) but will add to this review as I exercise the unit. Very happy with it so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Product

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value.
*by L***B on July 11, 2025*

Shipment was fast. Only reason for a 4 star was that unfortunately, it was shipped on its side, so the oil from testing that was in it during shipment, ran into the exhaust and had to burn off. This made a ton of smoke the first time we cranked it. It could have been shipped differently or added to the instructions. Otherwise, the generator was exactly as expected. I expected it to be loud and it was. If you have it on low idle the sound is better, but don't expect to be able to have a conversation next to it while it is running. The features I like are the key fob, for if you need to shut it off and turn it on at different intervals. Also, the low idle feature if not running full blast. It was easy to put together and looks very nice. Overall, I think the generator is a great quality for the price paid per watts.
