All OK so far

Started up fine, first try. Somewhat noisy but powerful. Using propane. It's great to not have to deal with gasoline storage. I have extra propane tanks and that stores indefinitely without degrading like gasoline.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I prepped the generator as directed. It fired up first try with gasoline and the same with propane. The remote start works great. Have only had it one day, to early to give it a full review. I hooked our rv up with our surge protector. Only complaint so far is that when I tried running our 15k ac unit the voltage dropped low enough to cause our surge protector to disconnect power.

We purchased this to use with our 38 foot fifth wheel toy hauler, as the onboard Onan generator uses a ton of gas when dry camping. We used this when dry camping, and it ran both ACs and lights perfectly. Only overloaded when we accidentally forgot and turned on the electric water heater with both ACs running, which we knew going in would be a no no on a single unit. It didn’t run quite as long as indicated, but we ran it two consecutive nights, one night on 3.4 gallons of gas and one night on a full 20 pound propane tank, both night starting at 8 PM running 1AC, and we Did turn on the hot water heater for showers. The temp outside was in the 70s overnight, so we didn’t need to run both ACs, but I’m sure we could have if needed. With gas, it ran from 8 PM until 9 AM (13 hours). With propane, it ran from 8 PM until 7:45 AM ( 11.75 hours). So although not as long as Westinghouse says, it’s still ran and kept up all night like our onboard does, but used way less fuel, and we didn’t have to refill in the middle of the night like with our smaller standalone generator. It’s not the quietest on the market but it’s close enough and we love that it’s dual fuel!

I just came back from a camping trip and the generator ran great. I have only one problem. The data display is not working completely and will have to address this issue. Other than this, it is a good buy.

I bought this inverter for our hunting cabin. It is very quiet and fuel-efficient. The extendable handle and wheels make it easy to move around.

Ive only used it for 1 weekend of camping. Ran a 19 ft 30amp camper including AC unit with power to spare. Put 27 hours on it. Only concern is, after it runs for several hours with no problem, it started idling down then would return to normal operation within a couple seconds. After it does it the first time then it would do it about every 20-30 minutes. No power change on my end and no codes on the generator. Still havent figured out what is causing it.
