Decent so far, just 1 complaint

I do not like that the standard 120v receptacle on the front is not powered all the time. It can only be powered in conjunction with the 120v 30amp RV receptacle. My old 5kw Honda generator that this is replacing had 120v receptacles powered all the time. It would run 120 and 240 at the same time. Not sure how this will handle the load yet. We will see very soon .

JUST GOT IT

It was delivered to my house while I was in the Hospital, but I bought it for all the features and the good price. Me being disabled the remote start and electric start is going to be great. And I like the dual fuel option. time will tell. I would of given it 5 stars except for the fact that I haven't used it yet.

Runs great on gas but not propane

After going through the manual and initial set-up, I tested the generator on gas and it runs great. Next I tried propane and it would not start. I live at 3,500ft and I think I need the high altitude regulator for propane. I love the electric start and remote, but I need help with propane.

Compact, maybe too

Thoughtful layout for electrical controls. The engine controls are hard to see and reach, especially choke and oil. Overall, worth the purchase. One arrived not what I ordered and also had shipping damage. The correct one arrived also with shipping damage to the recoil. I put it back into shape rather than return it.

Cool features, but disappointing quality & shippin

Pros: * 3-year warranty which I'm afraid I'm going to be using if they ever answer the phone. * push button start * quieter than comparable Champion model. * starts right up on either gasoline or propane * fuel gauge Cons: * L14 Outlet does not work. I connected the cable to my Champion generator and it worked fine so I know it's not the cable. * like other comments packaging is terrible, no padding just a thin box, I had it delivered to Lowe's thinking that it might be in better shape picking it up there but the box had a hole ripped in it. The frame is bent and I think that's from the factory not from Shipping. My suggested improvements would make this an awesome generator: Have four 120v standard Outlets instead of two. Add a digital display that shows the load level, watt level, hours ect. Put some styrofoam in your packaging to help protect it during shipping like I got when I bought a dishwasher.

Easy reading of instructions and easy assembly.

I purchased this generator a week ago after doing quite a bit of research. I followed the instructions for quick start up and it cranked the first time. I like the fact it will run on gasoline as well as propane. I also liked the push button and the remote start. I highly recommend this product.

Westinghouse Duel Fuel Portable Generator

After researching different generators in the market, I chose this model because i can use either gasoline or propane, plus it has electric start. The rating of 5,300 running watts is sufficient to run all the essential appliances for a few days in case of power disruption. However, this model doesn't come with the wheels. I now have to search to find a pair to fit.

Just bought last night

Shipping box had sight tears in the top middle of the box. The generator had no damage where the tears appeared. Unit appears to be very sturdy and well built. The alternator cover was dented in - but the shipping box showed no sign of damage. Aside from this I believe this to be a very good generator for my needs. Just FYI, although this is a light weight generator compared to others, it is pretty heavy - if you are picking this up - take help.

Size and features I was looking for

I was looking for a mid-sized unit (less weight, lower cost) that was able to run the essentials, had a transfer switch outlet, dual fuel, and electric start. This generator checked all those boxes. It also comes with a remote (which I haven't tested yet, but could come in handy). So far, so good!

Easy to use, reliable unit. No wheels.

Purchased this unit 6/14/23 to be prepared for hurricane season in FL. I installed a transfer switch to use with the unit and I’m very happy with the generator. It is easy to use, labeled very well and we love the wireless start. The only reason I did not give a 5 star rating is that Westinghouse doesn’t sell a wheel kit separately. The unit is very heavy and I wanted to buy a wheel kit. I can not find one for this generator. Thankfully we don’t need to move it a long distance. If I were to buy again I would consider buying a unit that comes with the wheels.
