Right out of the box...powered two refrigerator/freezers, an industrial fan, and inverter for our electronics, a microwave, and a coffee maker. Instructions were very detailed, and especially appreciate the info on grounding, as we never considered this with out previous smaller generator. We have an electrician scheduled to come and wire a transfer switch, as this beauty will be able to meet our minimal to moderate household needs during outages. We are a 3,000 sqft house, 2 adults and 3 kids; living in NE Florida. ***Note: Industrial fan does not = central AC unit...this is not a whole house generator,even though it is transfer switch ready. The above "seemed" to be pushing its limits, but it NEVER tripped, stopped or stalled.***
Just what I wanted and expected from reviews I read. I had looked at many self starting portable generators, but none matched the features and number of high ranked reviews the Westinghouse had. The fact the unit will automatically try to crank 3 times was added bonus I did not know about. ( have not had this occur yet because it has cranked on the first try every time.)
Great unit. Runs great, Easy to set up. Highly recommend it

I will use this to power my home when I lose power. Runs great easy to set up and start. all features are great from remote start, electric start and info center. Everything allows for easy access when servicing. Extremely happy with this purchase.
