Our latest addition

This is our second Westinghouse dual fuel generator and, just like the first one, this new one was up and running in no time. Started and ran perfectly for its break-in period and it's now off to the campsite to run the air conditioning and other items in our RV. Very happy.

Super Quiet and easy to Use

I took this unit out of the box, added the supplied oil, connected the supplied battery, hook up propane flipped the power switch on pushed the start button and it fired right up and was super quiet. My wife and I carried on a conversation using our normal voice tone standing right next to the generator. Super happy with this unit. Have used during a power outage to keep the electric space heater and refrigerator to keep my 90 year mother-in-law warm and feed

Works Great / Oil In Shipping Box When Opening

Generator works as advertised, however when I open the box there was oil in the bag it was shipped in. There was motor oil on the bottom of the box and motor oil leaking out of the bottom of the unit. I sent information to Westinghouse support and they answered quickly and told me that this is normal.

Works great

I have not put a large load on the generator. However, The generator was packaged well, it came with everything needed, other than fuel. I tested all functions of starting with both fuel types. Starts right up and is quiet. I plugged a few item in to make sure it was working properly. So far so good!

Dual Fuel works after minor head scratching

At first I couldn't get it to start on gasoline. Apparently I didn't add enough. I put in a gallon and it fired right up. On propane, it started right away. Tested it so far with a coffee pot and a toaster - doing the 5 hour break in so not pushing it over 50% capacity. Working perfectly.

Brand New

I just unboxed and the instructions were very clear to set this unit up. We filled the oil, connected the battery and hooked up the propane and with the push of a button, it fired right up. This generator is very quiet without any load and I'm sure will be similarly quiet with a load. We are ready to go camping in the middle of nowhere now!

What I expected, ahead of schedule

I purchased this generator for my RV, to utilise the dual fuel capability. Don't want to mess with gasoline and filed carburetors. Propane hooked up easily, in unit started up on 2nd push of the electric start. Very quiet with a low tone, and very attractive.

Well Built and Super Quiet

I did a lot of research before buying this generator. For the money there is no other generator that delivers the power and has the features this one does. So far it fired up the first try and I have gone through the break-in period without any issues. I will use it a bunch this summer and will see the long-term testing results

So far, So good

Just bought it and set up was easy - add oil, attach quick-connect battery cables, attach propane tank, and voila. Runs much quieter and weights 50% less than the Champion non-inverter I had before. I really like the telescoping handle too. I've only tested propane so far. But electric and remote start worked first try. My only caution is I didn't see in manual what the oil capacity is. It's a bit less than the quart they provide, and it's not easy to see when the chamber is full. It would be nice if they noted the actual oil capacity of the engine so you can pre-measure and avoid over-filling.

Vert easy set up

The Gen took a while to get because of back order but well worth the wait. From the time I brought the box into the garage till the time it was running was less than 30 minutes, I mean my sisters girls could have set this thing up. Add oil and connect the battery, wow. I ran it unloaded for 30 min, shut it down to check oil. The next day I ran my travel trailer with 13500 btu a/c, lights and microwave for 4 hrs. It ran everything perfectly and its not that loud at all. While running the camper I hooked up a LP tank and swapped to LP gas under load, didn't miss a beat. After I was done testing I changed the oil (easy) and now its ready for the next trip.
