Great Compact Emergency Generator
on November 13, 2024
Posted by: DavidM149
from Blairsville, GA
I purchased this unit to provide emergency power in the event of a power outage, to keep our refrigerators and freezer running, as well as other small appliances. Well packed, solidly built. Starts easy with the electric start which is important for us older folks. My only complaint so far is that the instruction manual does not give any guidance on the battery used to start the unit, ie: How often to charge?, Can you leave it plugged in until needed? Should it be charged before first start? Even WHERE to plug the charger into the generator is not mentioned. Also received 2 proprietary cables that are not mentioned, so I have no idea what they are for. Minor details, but overall very pleased so far.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor product and service
on November 15, 2024
Posted by: Sore Door
from Michigan
I purchased this unit brand new on 8-30-24. I registered and did a review to get a free cover for it. At this point I was happy with my purchase. Then… On the 2nd trip with around 15 hours on the unit, it failed and caused the trip to be ended early. I took it to the closest certified service center and it has been there for over 30 days. They are having a hard time getting the parts from Westinghouse. As I am waiting for repair I never did receive my free cover. They sent a chunk of steel in a box. As of today the unit is still sitting on a repair table torn apart. I asked for a replacement unit because i had another trip planned and was told the replacement parts are being sent for repair. Well it is too late. I needed the unit yesterday prompting this review . I went out and bought a different brand for a cheaper price and it is running with no issues. This purchase was a complete let down.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

4000C Would Reccomend
on November 15, 2024
Posted by: Jake already used
from Sunriver, Oregon
We had been using a 4500 for RVing which we are happy with. The only complaint is the weight of this generator. The purchased 4000C to addresses this issue. (Our Outdoors RV has a 25 amp circuit for running the AC. This unit has ample power, with the 27.9? amps it puts out.) The center handle makes is easy to manipulate the generator in and out of a F250 Tremor. I also really like the added feature of a water proof storage area for the key fob when the generator is in storage. By following the Quick Start Up Guide, and the tag that stated that the battery cables were disconnected, this generator started right up. After 5 minutes warm up, it ran flawlessly for 3 hours under 50 percent load for it's initial test run.
The reason for 4 Stars instead of 5 is based on the supplied literature and setting up the unit in subfreezing temperatures. Why is the battery being disconnected not on the Quick Start Up Guide? With the majority of our camping off grid and boon docking, having spare maintenance parts is a must. Having a parts list number for a spare spark plug, fuel filter and air filter listed in the maintenance schedule would make this endeavor easier. The website didn't accept a 4000C. A single part number for ordering all of the above would seem to be a no-brainer.

Great Size

Just purchased to replace a 10,000W generator that is too heavy and loud to be used in our condo association. Bought this generator to charge portable battery power banks. Perfect size.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Have had this a short while and it's been perfect. Runs the fridge fine in a power outage and charges my tools batteries at the same time.
