I bought this to use for emergencies. It runs pretty quiet and has enough power to run my essentials in an emergency situation. The only complaint that i have so far is that when i unboxed the generator it already had oil in it. As soon as i started pouring the provided oil into the reservoir, it started a spill in my garage. manual clearly states that the generator was supposed to come empty (hence the reason they provide oil). Also, the oil cap fits awkwardly on the generator. Had it not been for those issues, i would give it 5 stars
After considerable research, this Westinghouse product is EXACTLY what I have been searching for. After receiving it and using it, it has far exceeded my expectations. Truly an incredible piece of equipment for a very reasonable price. I could not be happier!!
