Bought this generator to provide power after big storms. It arrived in good condition and was easy to unpack. The instructions for setting it up were easy to follow. The unit started easily and runs nicely. Running noise level is good but not great. The unit is easy to move around using the attached handle. Overall, very pleased with the purchase.
Bought this to be a back-up generator to power a few things when the storms hit. Had no intention of running anything too big with it other than that. But this generator is a workhorse. It provides all the power I need to do anything I want. What is even better is when I was having an electrician install a couple of outlets in my garage, he saw the generator and asked if I wanted him to install a connection for it to run my house. I did not know it, but this baby has enough power to run my entire home in power outages. He wired it up, we cut the main power, and the house was powered by this generator. My electrician had nothing but praise for the unit. So glad I decided to follow the other reviews and buy this unit. I crank it once a week just to make sure everything is good (old fire department habit), and she runs like a champ. To be honest, I think I got more than I paid for. Thanks for this product!
Glad we got the generator. Had it professionally hooked up to home circuit breaker board. The Westinghouse WGen 12000 peak with a running 9500 will run our central a/c, our refrigerator, t.v. , internet, ceiling fan with lighting and stove/oven with simple meal preparation. Home is nearly 2200 sq. ft. under central a/c.
I HAVE A CHEAPER GENERATOR I BOUGHT FOR BAD WEATHER. LIVE OUT IN THE COUNTRY. IT WOULD BARELY KEEP UP WITH BASIC FANS, FRIDGE, LIGHTS, ETC. WANTED BIGGER UNIT TO RUN WELL ALSO. THIS UNIT DOES IT. WELL MADE. STARTS RIGHT UP AND WORKS GREAT. VERY IMPRESSED WITH PRODUCT.
I bought this product a month ago. Very pleased with the ease of use. Generator started on first try and I enjoy the convenience of the remote start. RunS more quietly than I expected.
