I received this inverted today for use with our RV trailer. I was impressed how easy it was to set up. Oil fill and gas fill went easy and it started right up. It's quiet and will come in very handy to charge batteries and run small appliances.
Use it on my boat to run everything at night while on anchor The generator works great I'am not happy about writing this review in order to register the unit. Registering would have been just fine without the review. On top of it, I was told I would get a cover for the unit, instead they stay the covers are not available only the power strips don't need a power strip need a cover. Again the generator starts overtime and powers everything I need it too. Westinghouse you need get better at your marketing.

I bought two of these generators recently (one for me and one for my Mother In-law and just tried one of them out in my garage. They are very, very quiet and seem to power up my appliances pretty good with no outages. I believe they will easily provide back-up power to a refrigerator and some appliances such as a television, fish tank pump, and such. They are only 2200 Watts steady power so you shouldn't expect them to power up much more than what I stated above.
Started on the second pull. An inverter for backup in Florida. Irma was bad enough to make this investment and avoid living without power for two weeks again. With good care hopefully it will last many years.
I tested the generator and it works well and is as quiet as expected. It arrived on my front porch in an oil-soaked carton that was barely holding together. Luckily, there was no shipping damage to the unit. The oil bottle inside was fine, so I can only assume that the bottle in the carton stacked above it in the warehouse leaked down onto it.
