With more frequent power outages I bought this generator for back up power. Within a week of receiving it I ended up needing it and it exceeded my expectations. The setup was clear and easy; and the start up/shut off options were flawless. The remote start works farther than stated, and compared to other generators it is relatively quiet. I look forward to trying it out with propane. So far a very worthwhile purchase.
It was recommended by the electrician who installed the transfer switch on my panel. My only issue was it would not start when it first arrived. The customer service guy told me that they recommend using the manual start the first time to “purge the system.” That seemed unlikely, but when I manually choked it, it did start. I think the issue was the push button start was not choking it automatically like it’s supposed to. I’ll see what happens next time I do a cold start.
Spent a ton of time researching generators. Had a Predator 8750/7000 watt and wanted more power and duel fuel option. Westinghouse had best reviews and priced competitively.
