Easy to start with clear instructions using for the first time. I bought this generator because it has the LED display that will be a great help for my auto detailing business.
Bought this last week to have a dual fuel generator. It’s very easy to lift and pack away. Runs quite and doesn’t have a strong exhaust smell when run off propane.
Bought this to use both stand alone and in parallel with my iGen5000DFc. Both are quiet enough to use in National Parks when travelling, but can also use to back up critical power needs at home for emergencies. Opened up, followed quick start instructions, ran - loaded and unloaded, tested all features and outlets, etc. Very happy with test results and purchase.
I bought this generator a month ago. It started on the 2nd pull the first time and on the 1st pull on the following 6 times I've used it. I have had no problems at all. As long as you stay within the power limitations it should perform very good. One of the reasons I bought this generator is because it only weighs 42 lbs and I can easily put it in my vehicle and transport to other locations including campgrounds and it's rated at only 52 dB. Also, if I need more power in the future, I can easily add another Westinghouse generator with the parallel operation mode outlets. So far, I rate it 5 out of 5 Stars.
I am happy with this purchase. I wanted a small, quiet and easy to use generate to run a few things at the cottage if my power went out. I also wanted one that was an inverter and dual fuel because I prefer to run off a propane tank, as propane tanks can also be used for the BBQ so the fuel doesn’t go stale! This one does all of these well. It took me a little while to get it started for the first time but I was able to do so with propane. The trick for mine was to prime the propane with 4 presses, pull the recoil a couple times with the choke out, and then close the choke three-quarters, and pull the recoil a few more times. I’ve run it a few times now to break it in, totalling about 4 hours.
