Purchased this unit for our camper, and the remote start was a must. Easy to start and maintain. The noise levels are low. Easy to move around with the extendable luggage handle. There is also a dual fuel version of this available with the remote start feature which is hard to find at the moment.
I just got this a week ago so have not put it to the full test camping but have played around with it at home and so far it's great. After putting gas and oil in it, I hit the button and it started right up. I also have a Westinghouse 5500 watt for my home and it has worked very well!
I bought this right after a power outage and have been impressed by the extra features. I wanted something that had an electric/remote start so my wife could start the generator if I wasn't around and this generator does that. The LED display is also a nice feature because I'm able to look and see exactly how much power I am using and if I can plug more stuff in. It helps me get an exact number for power needs of a device as opposed to a general estimate. So, far it has run well and fits the needs I have.
This was an impulse buy. I didn't necessarily need it right now, but I wanted a generator that would be big enough to handle storms, power tools, camping, et cetera...and this size seemed to fit the bill. I liked all the other positive reviews and Westinghouse is a great brand. This generator is reliable and really quiet!! I also like the electric start and the remote start features. Cranked on the first try, every time.
