Unit has plenty of power output and flexibility as a dual fuel unit. I plan to keep it simple and use the propane option as much as possible. The 50amp outlet has come in handy to power my entire house. The electric start saves my shoulder too. I am happy so far with my purchase.
I Love sitting in the dry warm house, and turning my power on at the touch of a button. Almost as great as hot water from our well, and a warm heater during power outages. This is one of the best investments we've ever made.
I’ve only run it for a couple hours so far, but as I inspected the unit during assembly, it is well built, and uses very good materials. The quick start documentation was excellent and easy to follow. The unit runs smooth and quiet. Only one minor detail was missing from the quick start: you do need to turn on the fuel shut-off valve that sits just under the gas tank.
So far very happy with this generator. Easy set up. Love the remote start feature. Ran a test run on the house and all was good. Seems fairly quiet for a generator of this size. Very happy. NOTE: Purchased for power outages during hurricanes and have not yet had to run for an extended time.
Perfect peace of mind. Easy to assemble with clear instructions. Easy to move around. Plugs in to my interlock no issues. Runs smooth and quiet on propane. Remote key is amazing for when it needs to be started on cold mornings. Every homeowner should buy this.
I have waited a long time to buy a generator for my home. Whenever I thought, "today is a good day", I would do my research on Consumers Report and it always came back as Westinghouse being a leader. They were not wrong! I had an Electrician install the electrical for my generator and the generator has been a dream to use. Extreme ease of use to start, maintain, and all the options for different hookups... Being a first time generator owner, I am sooo happy I went with this one! I don't plan on ever having to buy another one.
