Super fancy

Remote start has made my life so much better. No longer do I have to wake my wife up to brave the cold and start the generator. Dual fuel is so easy to swap between. Very long run time on a single tank. The included oil funnel is nice as well as the battery charger.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Starts great, but no electrical output
on April 23, 2024
Posted by: Disappointed Dan
from Saginaw, MI
Bought it 3 months ago. Tried starting it and was very impressed by how easily it started. Assuming it was good to go in all aspects, we never tried plugging anything into it until we took it to its 1st job. At that point, it was just a huge disappointment. Spent an hour trying to get it to produce power. Finally called the company, only to find out that we had to take our brand new generator to a service center to get it to work properly. Westinghouse dependability sucks to say the least.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Testing it All
on April 23, 2024
Posted by: G B R
from Sugar Land, TX
I picked this up today, and so far, I'm testing it out using only propane. My wife insisted on purchasing a model with an electric start. I'm glad that she did because I can't start it using the recoil handle. I have tried it with and without the choke. I cut grass weekly with a lawn mower that only has a recoil handle, so I'm surprised that I am unable to start the generator using that method. Using the electric start with propane seems to be providing the correct voltage to the outlets that I have tested. I will contact Westinghouse technical assistance about the recoil issue. Also, the generator seems a lot louder than I expected it to be. I will recommend this generator to a friend, if I can work out the recoil issue.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Just received it yesterday. Nice looking unit. Very quick to set up and get running. Everything included with the generator including a battery charger for the electric start system and a remote start Fob.very happy with the unit. Has all the necessary outlets that i need to run the RV, backup for the house when the power goes out, and for remote powering of tools and equipment.

Up and running
on April 27, 2024
Posted by: BackupGuy1
We bought this generator for backup power in the event of an extended power outage. We bought it because it was well reviewed, affordable, and has dual-fuel plus electric start. We also had a power inlet box installed outside, and an interlock installed on the electrical panel for whole house use. I unboxed it today, installed the wheel kit, and tested it out. It started right up on both propane and gasoline fuel. I even connected to our panel and ran the house on generator power for a short while. It will certainly be helpful in the event of a power outage.

Great size, features, easy to setup
on April 28, 2024
Posted by: Musicinthewoods77
This generator is a great size, very easy to assemble and run. Love the dual fuel design and the instructions very clear and easy to follow. A little on the heavy side for one person to carry, so I'd recommend adding the wheel kit for ease of transport. quieter than expected (on propane at least). Looking forward to getting it some more use.
