Troublesome Starting Coil
on December 14, 2025
Posted by: Lousy Pull String
from Northern NJ
The pull string for the starting coil tangles nearly every third time I go to start it and I have to remove the coil to untangle the string. I believe the return spring in the coil is underpowered or pit of dimensional spec. Once the generator is running, it runs great.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear about the issue with the recoil starter, as this is not the level of performance we strive to deliver. We’re glad to know the generator runs well once started, and we’d appreciate the opportunity to help make this right. Please contact our support team at support@wpowereq.com or 1-855-944-3571 so we can assist you in resolving the issue.
Thanks,
Sydney, Westinghouse

Best investment I made when moving out
on December 13, 2025
Posted by: Lugomlop
from Puerto rico
I bought this generator a few weeks after moving out of my moms place, the new place we are renting does not have solar panels/backup batteries so we decided to invest in a generator we could take with us anywhere we moved and it’s one of those things you assume you will not use often but we do!! The generator always starts up quickly and easily and we have not come up on any issues with it and we are almost coming up on a year with it. Very happy with this product

Just what the Doctor Ordered…

This Westinghouse Duel-fuel generator has all the features I was looking for, as a unit that will provide energy to run my freezer and other appliances during power outages.
I live on the Oregon coast and every winter we experience several power outages during and after rain/wind storms. This unit will bridge the gap and keep my freezers operational, as well as other appliances that I might need.
Westinghouse was rated #1 in reliability when the unit is properly maintained.

Emergency home generator
on December 6, 2025
Posted by: Cyclist.Jef
from Harrisburg, PA
Simple to set up. It is quieter than I anticipated given that it isn't an inverter style.
I would not use it in a quiet campground, but it is great for home back-up power.
