We are very happy with this product. It has enough power to keep our appliances, water pump, and lights running during an outage. The remote start is a great feature.
Good so far but have not had to use it during a p.

I currently have another smaller Westinghouse generator and am very happy with it, but have not had a need to use this generator yet. I have one strong suggestion for the manufacturer. The packaging is nothing more than a cardboard box. It does little to protect the generator. I was fortunate and had no damage, but I saw a number of reviews from people that weren’t so lucky. I was an engineer in the automotive industry and packaged many different items for shipment. These generators should be bolted to a skid with a 2x4 frame for protection. It would save the manufacturer in warranty costs and customer dissatisfaction.
I ordered and received the generator before hurricane Ida hit south Louisiana. We were fortunate we didn’t get hit directly. I was able run 3 window units , refrigerator, freezer , lights, fans, TV, treatment plant & hot water tank . Although I only needed it for a short time . It did everything I needed it to do with no problems. Great unit !! I would’ve gave it 5 stars but I haven’t used it long enough.
I just received it and within 45 minutes after unpacking the unit had it fully serviced, running and tested. Couldn't be easier. Will update after I've used it for awhile. Note: primarily purchased this as an emergency backup in case of lost power for our home. Will also be using it for electrical needs on remote locations on my property.
