I used this product during the aftermath of a hurricane a few months back. We now have a freeze predicted and it won't crank even with replacing battery
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

NOT WORKING IN COLD WEATHER (BELOW 20 F.)

NOT WORKING IN COLD WEATHER (BELOW 20 F.)
The "auto start" does not work at all at cold weather
(Auto choke failure)
It might work only if you push the choke lever with your thumb at the "cold" position and hold it there
In other word: Useless if you live up northern USA or Canada fpor the reaL winter time
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great features, Good product for the price!

It's a good product for the price. Just received this product so haven't had the opportunity to fully test it yet. However, it seems like it will work for the purpose of RV camping. Seems to have all the features that I need but the manual refers to an Eco Mode Switch & Output Ready LED which I haven't been able to locate on this unit. The noise level is a little louder than I expected but can't wait to test it out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lots of Power
on November 20, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
from Rescue, Ca
Pros: Easily Powers our whole house (accept for HVAC system) well pump, water heater, 3 refrigerators, lights, tv....etc. ; reasonably priced; electric start; many recepticle options.
Cons: loud (but it never claims to be a Quiet Generator) ; the 50 amp recepticle is positioned directly over the tire. Most HUGE 50A cords that plug in at a 90° angle will not plug in without removing the tire. (See pictures)
Overall, it is exactly as advertised and we are happy with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Becareful what you buy!

I bought this generator through amazon Oct, of 2020. Was only used when power to our house would go out, so I have less than 20 hours on it. Generator started running bad found the inside carb stud was broken in half with the threaded part still in the head. Called Westinghouseabout the 3 year warranty wont cover the work. My opinion bad workmanship por quality of parts.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
