I just bought this a week and a half ago so this is what I know so far.The generator with the electric start(my husband really likes that)has been running very good so far.We plan to use it with our 5th wheel when leave in November and head for Tx.Our other generator disappeared last year when we were gone for the day.It has everything we wanted and it's nice looking so we're looking forward to our trip and going without electric when we stop.
This is a really good generator and I am pleased with the purchase. This is our second unit and we use it for power outage. It has enough power for a freezer, 2 fridges, lights, two fans and lasts 9-10 hours on a full gas tank. The noise level is not bad - much better than our old unit. Highly recommended.
I put a transfer switch on the outside of our house for use in case we have a prolonged outage (Buffalo Winters Suck) -- After doing the math I figured I needed at max 5000 watts to run various lights, refrigerator, freezer and our steam boiler. This Generator will run them all without issue, and can also run a microwave and air fryer simultaneously. This was really surprising to me --- That and the fact that it is electric start made this a no brainer for me.
I purchased this generator a day after a major wind storm knocked out my power for more than a day. I have been putting off buying a generator for years, but decided that it was time. Based on reviews and recommendations, I decided on the Westinghouse. It arrived in 6 days and was simple to assemble and get ready for use. The engine fired right up after only two pulls! Hopefully I will never need to use it, but the peace of mind of knowing that it's there and will fire right up means a lot. I highly recommend this to those who are looking.
