Reliable, plenty of power

I bought this generator to supply power to my water well while I waited for the power company to provide power to my property. I used it several times a week to run the well pump (240 volts, not sure of wattage) for up to an hour or 2 at a time. It was flawless in the middle of the coldest time of the year. Very easy starting on gasoline. I did not have a need or opportunity to try the propane option. The generator was also used to power some power tools as I had a shed built and performed without a hitch. And gas "mileage" was great too!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Started on the first pull! READ THE USER MANUAL!!!

I did massive research on my first generator as to what to buy, and this was the best bang for my buck when it came to my needs vs the specs of this generator. This unit is extremely heavy, too heavy for carriers with no material moving equipment. UPS, FedEx and USPS use no equipment to help them deliver packages, so unless Arnold Schwartzenegger is delivering your generator, know in advance the box will arrive damaged, but the generator (I think) is packaged with this in mind. After all, the generator is so heavy, one can only lift it so hi, so it doesn't have far to fall if dropped. After setting up my generator, it was obvious to me that people were not following directions when reading their reviews. I don't care if you have been operating generators all your life (like myself) this one will not set up, prep and start like any other your used too. READ THE DIRECTIONS! This generator ships with no motor oil and has a "break in" period. Be sure to pour the entire contents of the supplied oil into the crankcase. (3/4 of a court capacity) 10w30. After the break in period (run for 1 hour with no load), it recommends after 25 hours of load run time to change the oil. That's where I recommend converting to synthetic oil. This generator comes with everything you need to set it up except the fuel. It even comes with the tools to put the legs and wheels on and a funnel to pour the oil in. This thing started on the very first pull for me, and runs quieter than any of my previous generators. Bottom line: If you don't read the user manual, don't dare complain about the item or leave a bad review. People who have been using generators for years like myself (and those who make them) can tell if they have read the instructions or not just by reading a review. Even with all the "fibs" within it. This generator is worth buying even if you don't know how to interpret and apply the instructions, just hire someone else who knows what they're doing to set it up for you. Way to go Westinghouse! Eat your heart out Generac!

I was really surprised with it because I ordered online but price was fare for the size and not to heavy to move
I really like the covers over the plug in

Love the generator!!!

I just bought this generator last week. Highly anticipated the arrival. The generator was easy and quick to assemble. Started up on first try. Ran a number of my power tools and everything works well on it. Bought this specifically as a back up generator for our home for our frig and freezer if the power grid went out.
