Solid Choice

I bought this as a precaution as last time our power went out for 25 hours and we lost all the food in both of our fridges (the refrigerated part). It was between this one and the Predator 5000 and I chose this one not only because it is at least $250 cheaper, but also because it offered more features such as a longer warranty (3 years vs 90 days) and its quieter (52 dBA vs 61 dBA), its lighter (105 lbs vs 110 lbs). All for the same power output. Even a 20% discounted Predator 5000 was still more expensive than the regular retail of my Westinghouse. This was a no-brainer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We bought this before a big storm. Fortunately we didn't need it, but I put it through its paces and it is immensely useful and relatively quiet for a generator

Good little generator.

This generator balances power, efficiency, and is quiet as well. The LED display makes monitoring easy. It also has a big fuel tank for its size so it can run quite a long time, no getting up in the middle of the night to fuel it.

Generator

Works for the purposes we bought it for. It is not overly large, and can be stored for use in emergencies. Noise-wise, I would compare it to a lawn mower. Otherwise, does what it should at a reasonable price.

I joust purchased and tested this, love how quit it is and the duel fuel feature is great. Seems to be working perfect. Was pretty difficult to cold start on propane. Some of the plastic parts, door and case feel cheep and came lightly damaged.

Solid power once it's running
on February 16, 2026
Posted by: Ace26
I used this once on propane to back up my appliances. It took several tries to get it started initially, but once it fired up, it ran everything sufficiently without any issues.
Pros: Consistent power; handled appliance loads well.
Cons: Finicky startup on propane.
Good for a backup, just be prepared for a little effort to get it going.
