I got this a few weeks ago. it was a little damaged from shipping scuff marks. not Westinghouse's fault. runs great only going to use propane . it idles pretty rough assume its the propane. make sure and break in properly the directions on break in aren't real good.. I ran it an hour and changed the oil.. lots of glittery metal in oil . changed the oil two more times after that every hour. going to run for twenty hours and change again. I ran two fridges and a freezer plus two heaters and some lights and it didn't miss a beat. Really like the Gen

I used this generator during this past winter storm in Texas and it worked great. Having the dual fuel option to use propane is a game changer if you don't want the gasoline smell in your garage. I did take off the panels to ensure the internal motor cable for the auto-choke was connected, so no issues for me like other users have experienced with that.

We borrowed this same generator because of a 3day power outage and it was the best generator ever! Our son also used his for a camping trip that made it so wonderful!! Thanks for the fast shipping of our new generator. We will never be without anymore!

I've done a lot research on this generator, and I will say money well spent!!!! It's compact it's a lot quieter then would think for outputting 4500 watts. I put oil in hooked up the battery "like they tell you to do" With a very detailed start procedure. Fired right on propane. I couldn't. Be any happier with my purchase.

I bought this unit as a power backup, and to be able to carry it to other sites that need power. Unboxing and setup was a breeze. The unit is a little heavy, but manageable. After unboxing, and fowllowing the set up instructions the unit cranked up immediately. I've only run the unit with gas, have not tried propane yet. The electric and remote start are a definite bonus. I've only used the unit just for breaking in, but it powered two deep freezers and refrigerator without any issues.

I bought this a couple months ago, it works great. It was exactly what I was looking for. The remote start is a great upgrade from my last inverter/generator. Its great to stay in the trailer on a cold morning and have the generator start with out going outside. The generator is nice a quiet, can easily sleep while it is running.

Just bought this so have no long term usage history. I bought it because of how highly rated Westinghouse generators are on some of the more reliable rating sites. It is small, relatively light, and quiet when running. I have have had a terrible time maintaining gas powered open-frame generators since I only use them as back-ups to the house power. I bought this specifically because of the option of using propane, which I intend as the ONLY fuel I will use in it. I also like the option of running two generators in parallel which (with a second generator) offers me the capability of a "whole house" system, since I have a small house. My only carp is the operators manual does not cover everything you need to know and some items are contradictory. That is understandable in that I am sure Westinghouse is constantly improving their products and consumers cannot afford for them to constantly reprint the manuals. Specifically, in stopping, the manual says to "turn the battery switch to the off position" whilst the Quick Start Guide says to "Put the engine run/stop switch in the RUN position and pull choke". (Yes I read all the little pieces of paper that came with the generator). Obviously the Quick Start Guide is talking about an open frame generator since there is no readily accessible choke on my model. One piece of paper says the the parallel cable are included, another says they are not. (They are not) A battery charger is included with NO instructions on when, where, or how to use it, and the manual states that the battery charges whenever the generator is running. I do have concerns with the long-term durability since it is covered in plastic and two of the doors popped off while I was unpacking it, but everything went back together properly. All in all, so far, I am very pleased with the generator. The next power outage will be the true test. Hurricane season is coming.

It came with everything I needed, including the oil. All I had to do was add the oil, and connect the battery. It started from propane on the second push, as expected. The first crank is needed to fill the hose with propane, I expect. It generated clean power for my freezer. Also, it's advertised dimensions were exactly correct. I bought this model because it would fit in a tight storage space I have, and it fit perfectly.

Being a senior citizen, we were looking for a generator with electric start and propane power. This one fit the bill. It is powerful enough to run the medical equipment my husband needs and numerous other items. The best part is I can start it without having to pull a cord.

I own two of these units. The remote start is super handy. I also have mine rigged up with a SwitchBot remote control switch. This lets me "push the button" from anywhere in the world connected to the internet. Very handy since the generator is part of my backup power for my off-grid system.
