Just got the unit started today and it was a fast and easy setup. The unit is solid and fired up instantly with the first pull. Very happy with the value for the money spent and I'm looking forward using to power my barn tools and as a house back up here in Maine.
Still trying to get it to work and run whole house

I have absolutely no regrets with my decision to purchase this Westinghouse generator. At first, I was concerned with how heavy it is but after installing the two wheels even I, a frail senior citizen, can move it easily.
It's easy start and runs no louder than my lawn mower. I definitely recommend choosing the dual fuel model.
Hard to start toggle switch for battery start won’t work unreliable so far.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
Thank you for your review, and we’re sorry to hear you’re having trouble with the electric start. That’s certainly not the experience we want for our customers. Our support team would be happy to help diagnose the issue and make sure your generator is running reliably. Please reach out to us at support@wpowereq.com or 1-855-944-3571, and we’ll work with you to get this resolved as quickly as possible.
THIS IS A NICE UNIT, GREAT FEATURES AND A GOOD PRICE FOR THE FEATURES. CHARGED THE BATTERY FOR A FEW HOURS AND PUT OIL AND GAS IN IT, STARTED RIGHT UP. ALMOST CAN'T WAIT FOR THE POWER TO GO OUT AGAIN, (KNOCK ON WOOD). WE LOST OUR POWER TWICE IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS, (NEAR SEATTLE) AND OUR OLD GENERATOR STARTED LEAKING FUEL FROM CARB WHICH IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. THIS IS ELECTRIC START, AUTO CHOKE, TURN ON FUEL, FLIP A SWITCH, PUSH START BUTTON, EASY TO START AND LOOKS ROBUST AND EASY TO MAINTAIN. VERY HAPPY WITH THIS PURCHASE.
Ran my RV day and night no issues. Like the propane option, I prefer to carry a tank instead of gas cans. Guy next to me plugged in and it made no difference in fuel use.
