Just purchased a week ago, but in setting up and first start, I'm impressed. Started right up and was more quite than expected. I plugged in a 1400 watt electric heater, and the generator did not even hesitate. Love the pull out handle. Just a great generator with so many useful features.
Did an initial run-in with light and varying loads. Ran fine for about three hours until the fuel ran out, although the fuel level and remaining runtime displays were zero the entire time. Additionally, the oil fill/check arrangement is not ideal and easy to overfill.
We have been using two 2000 parallel units and look forward to using only one 4500 inverter generator. We wanted a remote start/stop. Arrived in timely manner. Removed engine service cover and unable to resecure one cover screw, but others held. Like the idea of using parallel-operation with a variety of other Westinghouse inverter generators.
