Big generator with clean power that won't fry electronics. We had another brand that blew our microwave and dishwasher so are very happy with this model.

Good, but quality control issues.

I bought this generator and was delivered on December 30th. Everything went together as planned, after running it a few times the starter started grinding. A few hours later the drain plug was dripping oil. I had to replace starter and a new drain plug gasket. The terminal came loose on the second starter and was replaced again. Shortly after that, the engine was not running properly. I contacted Westinghouse they sent me out a controller. It was the wrong one. When I had the control panel open, I found plug had come loose on the existing controller. I snapped it into place and the generator started working again. The bottom line is a few minor corrections should have been done with this generator prior to shipping. It would have created a lot less grief.

Have a jump ready

First time I went to use this generator when the power went out, I hooked up the battery and the panel indicator showed it was good. After several attempts to start, I realized it didn't have enough juice. I had to use my portable jump box to start it. Pretty sad on a brand-new unit. Otherwise, it was great.

There is a lot packed into this unit. This is a heavy duty unit from what I can tell.
Initial impressions:
Pros: It's duel fuel, which was the primary reason I purchased it. The push button start is nice. I just need to make sure all the switches are in the correct positions before starting. There is enough wattage to power those things that need to be powered in the event the power goes out.
Cons: The battery comes unhooked so in order to hook the battery up, I had to take the wheel back off to get at the screws to get the battery out. The oil dipstick is designed in a way where I didn't notice if the rubber piece on the stick is supposed to be inserted all the way in or if it stops up to a point with some exposure. The temperature recommendations say the lowest to go is 5 degrees F. If the power goes out in Wisconsin on a cold winter day, it's below the 5 degree threshold so I won't know how the generator will work when it's that cold.
Time will tell how this will work as this is just an initial view after setting it up today.

very dissatified with this product..

ran generator for 45 minutes and it stopped and would not start again.Handled load while it was running up until it stopped..I've had Briggs and Stratton,Generac and Champion generators with no problem so i figured i would give Westinghouse a try.. I retired from a utility and we had a lot of 34.5 kv transformers and 12.5 kv circuit breakers and they were very reliable i guess because they were made in the US..
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Was packed well, and arrived in great shape.

Was easy to get ready to start. Good manual, except parts diagram needs magnifying glass to read. Big wheels make this heavy unit easy to move on the smooth level, but needs second person to help on grass, gravel, or slopes. Started on LP first try and runs well. Like the oil drain hose update. Am ready for the next
power outage.
power outage.
