Easy to get started, minor installation kinks
on November 23, 2020
Posted by: BaiC
from OH
Overall very easy to assemble and get started.
But several minor kinks noticed:
1. When installing the two feet, one of the nuts is not aligned well, making it impossible to screw the flange bolt in. I had to screw the bold in from the other direction to force it through (kind of opening up the threads), then screw the bolt out and install as illustrated in the manual.
2. In Page 18, step 5 of "Starting the generator," I was looking for the breakers on the generator originally. After finding on such buttons, then realized this step means breakers on my circuit panel, etc. So please make this clear to minimize confusion. For standard-alone operation (e.g., on the road), this step is not needed.

Fantastic Value

I've had the power go out at my house twice in the past 3 months. My sump pump runs constantly and my back up battery system could not handle the load. I researched portable generators and found the Westinghouse unit to have the highest ratings, wattage and value for the money. It was an easy assembly and the wheel and handle make it very easy to move around. With this unit I can run my sump pump and multiple other items anytime regardless of weather or utility power.

I bought this unit recently, but so far so good. Very easy to use, move around, and supplies enough wattage to power all home essentials during an outage.

Easy to set up!

I bought this generator one week ago. It was very easy to set up. Instructions are very good and easy for anyone to understand. I never owned or operated a generator and was happy that this one was quite simple to set up and operate. Started right up and ran nicely. Great value for the money!
