Very quiet. Efficient dual fuel generator. Starts with ease. Handle and wheels make it easy to move around. Electric and USB outlets.

Great Blue Inverter Generator

It was very easy to get it ready to start. It is bigger than the picture but started right up on propane and is very quiet compared to other generators. If you can get by with 120 volts and 4700 starting watts with at 28 to 30 amps it is great. Overall a great unit with electric start plus remote start with gas and propane. So far only charged a golf cart with it but I am installing a transfer switch to plug it in and start it during outage.

Great purchase! Wish I'd have bought years ago!

I purchased this for my home as we lose power often and I have multiple refrigerators & freezers full of food. It has been a great purchase. It's so easy to set up, start, connect and power everything I need. Super quiet and efficient. Love the Eco feature.......

An almost perfect generator.

I thiink it will be all the power I need for my 27 ft AC. I plan to only use with propane since I already had a spare 30 lb tank. I should always have a backup with two tanks on my trailer. The negative is the poor design of the oil drain. It is offset to the door for checking the oil so very hard to get a wrench on. Then the screw acting as the plug is in an extension piece from the oil pan and comes unscrewed instead of the plug. You end up with a huge mess in the bottom of the generator. Plus, they apparently expect you to drain the oil into the bottom of the generator and let it go out a drain hole in the bottom of the enclosure. After having this mess the first time I drained the oil, I found an oil drain valve on Amazon that I could install with a fitting i could attach a tube to. Had to install a rubber washer to get a good seal to the valve. Now I can change the oil without any mess.

Great generator with 2 major design flaws.

Generator works great and runs quiet, making it excellent for tailgating! The 2 major design flaws: only 2 wheels, and they are not casters, and the oil plug/stick color makes it impossible to see the amount of oil in the pan which makes overfilling far too simple.

Overall -- Not bad.

PROS: I do like the looks, the econo mode, the overload protection, the transportability with the pull-out handle, the dual fuel, the covers for all the components on the face, the remote starting, the pullcord starting, and the low noise level. CONS: When I got to the point to start the unit (using gasoline), all it did was try to start. Never did I smell any gas the multiple times I tried to start it. Turns out that the fuel stepping motor wire connector was broken. The wire was run through a bad spot; the pull cord. Fixed the connector and it fired right up. Also, the remote starting wasn't synced to the system.

Disappointed, returning unit

Very disappointed in this generator. 2nd week electric start quit working. Contacted Westinghouse, took 3 days for them to call me back, then asked me to take it apart and troubleshoot for them. Determined it has a bad control module. They offered to send me a part to fix it myself- I declined as I don’t think I should have to repair my own brand new unit. I am returning it.
