Great little generator

Bought this for the Texas power outages and so far I haven't had to actually use it yet, but I know I will soon. It's a solid little generator, not too terribly heavy, seems pretty good quality. I'm confident that it's going to serve its purpose well. Came with oil and a little bag of tools for it, but if you have actual tools they'd probably be a lot better than what this comes with. No assembly required which is great. Thanks!
This is the first generator my wife and I have ever purchased while living full time in our RV. We had to purchase a new one in a pinch whilst having limited funds, (we thought nothing in our price range would be up to the standard of what we actually needed to run the RV plus all our appliances) but this one has been awesome besides not being able to run our heater as long as we'd like, and it is a bit noisy to be completely honest. (Hence the only 4 out of 5 stars) Love it thought otherwise!
When I first received the generator, I couldn't figure how to get the electric start to work. (the black and red wires from the battery were connected side by side). It wasn't easy to get help from Westinghouse. Then someone looked at it and saw immediately that the connection needed to be made. He did that and it started. I just did a trial connecting two heavy wires to the generator connections, and both worked. Now I am satisfied with this generator, and recommend it.
We bought this following a major snow storm that left is without power for a week. Our previous generator was hard to maintain and didn’t work. This was a very easy set up, maintenance appears to be easy based on the design and it power our items.
