We recently had a massive power outage after a storm. I researched generators and kept seeing Westinghouse. Dual fuel option got my attention, and the electric/remote start is a must for us elderly folks! I read lots of reviews and looked at all options.. I don't want to power my whole house, but I do want to maintain temperature for my refrigerator and freezer, keep phones charged, and make coffee! This Westinghouse seemed the best suited for our needs. On the off chance I don't have gas, I can use the propane tank from my BBQ. I hope I don't need it anytime soon, but am happy to have a back up plan in the event of another power outage!
I bought this after the May tornados in Houston and I’m glad I did I just had hurricane beryl blow though and was out of power for a week I’m glad I had this so I didn’t have any food spoil
Bought this after 5 days of no power due to storm. Considering I'm a incredibly bad mechanic 4 screws and two pins later she was "fully assembled". The remote start fob and included oil and assembly tools are great touchs. I give a 4 star because getting to the oil into the machine was difficult. If you have small hands getting the cap off is difficult because finding leverage to get to the part. Also the included funnel barely clears the body and gets to a 45% angle making filing again difficult. There is nothing I see that says the specific amount of oil needed for this device I just assumed they would not send me more than I need but put the whole bottle in and as I was fighting the cap back on the oil leaked onto my garage floor. Lastly it says it's "super quiet". While I've heard others I'm my neighbor with incredibly loud generators this is far from quiet. I'll see when I actually use it how bad it is inside my house but I did NOT want to be that guy who has a generator that sounds like a jet engine.
