I bought this generator to supply home with the essentials lights, fridge, freezers, and mini split heat pump. Unboxed put wheels and feet on added the oil put gas in and it fired up on first try. Have not used in a power outage yet but I’m confident it will do its job
Great unit, well built, but ever since new it has not been able to start with the remote without manually applying the choke (Which is kind of pointless for a remote?) and it seems to "surge" when running? It isn't a smooth idle it revs up and down, not sure if this is normal?
I would recommend this to a friend!

Tis is our second Westinghouse Generator. We had the same one when we lived in Michigan and had it wired to the fuse box. It ran everything that we needed during power outages. Now we live in Florida and the power went out during Hurricane Helene and we did not have a generator. Ordered this right after. Just got and now hurricane Milton is almost here. Pretty sure this will come in handy.
I received the generator two days after I ordered it. This was during an extended power outage because of hurricane Helene. After pouring oil and gas in, the generator started quickly and ran perfect. The remote start is awesome. Very well designed and built.
