SO FAR, SO GOOD.

I PURCHASED THIS FOR USE MOSTLY AS A POWER SOURCE FOR MY RV AND TO HOPEFULLY RUN THE AIR CONDITIONER (I HAVEN'T TRIED THAT YET). I'VE ONLY HAD THIS GENERATOR FOR A FEW DAYS AND HAVEN'T REALLY USED IT. HOWEVER, INITIAL SETUP AND START WERE VERY EASY. JUST CONNECT THE BATTERY, ADD THE SUPPLIED OIL, ADD GAS AND IT WAS READY. IT STARTED ON THE THIRD ATTEMPT. I BELIEVE IT HAD TO PRIME AND PUMP THE GAS; THAT'S WHY IT TOOK 3 ATTEMPTS. THE ONLY COMPLAINT I HAVE THUS FAR, IS THE BATTERY STRAP WAS CUT AND NOT OPERABLE, BUT THAT SHOULD BE EASILY FIXED.

Great Generator

I was looking for a generator for our camper for deer hunting that would be quiet. This one had good ratings and was rated for under 60dBA. I'm very happy with the purchase. It's easy to use, is dual fuel, not bulky and it is quiet. We ran it all day on gas, and it is very efficient. It is also easy to switch over to propane gas if needed.

Great power at great price!

This is my first generator purchase and have been very pleased with it so far. I researched for several weeks plus consulted with friends who are electricians to help me determine the features I needed. The primary motivation for purchasing a generator was as a backup in the event of a power outage but also something portable to use while camping. I really like the dual fuel feature, easy start options and the quietness. Very good price for the features and power!

Perfect for RV and home use

I just bought a travel trailer so I did a little shopping and found this to be a pretty great inverter generator. I love the propane feature. Picked it up last night and I already load tested it. Runs everything on my 30 amp travel trailer, including the 15k BTU AC. It double duties as a great emergency generator for my house. Runs everything in my house (within reason), including a couple of window AC units, a refrigerator, and a freezer. No, it won’t run my hot tub (oh well). This is my second Westinghouse generator. The first one is a 7,000 watt which is still like new. I'm giving that one to my son since I bought this one to consolidate my home and RV generator requirements. Absolutely love it!

Quiet and loaded with features

I bought this generator to replace a very loud generator I have owned for many years. I always felt like I was disturbing the entire neighborhood when I ran that one. This one is quieter than I ever expected, and even quieter on Eco mode. The display for run time remaining, power being used, and hours run is fantastic. This generator has everything I could ever want. I usually have a full tank of propane at the house as a spare for the grill, so with dual fuel capability, even if I've used all the gasoline in the mower, I'm still good to go when I need generator power.

Duel Fuel Flexibility

Specifically looked for a generator with duel fuel capability. Since this unit is primarily used for "dry" camping with our trailer we already have a propane fuel source so I don't have to pack additional gasoline fuel containers. Propane also makes it easier to store the generator long term as I don't have to drain the gas or run it dry to keep from damaging the fuel system. Picked Westinghouse because of the features and positive reviews.

Exactly what I was looking for!

After doing my research, I decided this was the generator I needed, allowing for the duel fuel option, I am so glad I didn’t settle on a generator that is only gas. It is so easy to start! It is pretty heavy to lift, but the handles allow for easier rolling around. Even my wife can do this! It’s such a relief to be prepared now for power outages in addition to having a reliable generator to take camping.

Small, quiet and plenty of power, great features

I bought this for our cabin to replace a much bigger generator we have that is so noisy it drives me nuts! I needed this to run a water pump, some lights, occasionally the coffee maker and a small microwave as well as some power tools. My biggest concern was the water pump, and it handled it with no issues! Also bought it because it was dual fuel and we have propane run to the generator shed, so we wanted to continue to utilize that. Plus the remote start is the other thing we needed! Who wants to go out in the snow to start something first thing in the morning? This little unit was exactly what we needed!

Has what you need when needed most!

Bought it at the start of the month and since then had a few major storms roll through the area leaving us without power for a several hours a couple times now. With this generator everything was covered - from a fridge and freezer, to some electronics that needed power. It was a perfect price for a great product when it was needed most!

Great generator and great features.

I bought this less than a month ago, and glad I did. It has all the features that I was looking for. I am primarily going to use it for backup power to the house. It has plenty of power, duel fuel, clean inverter power and as quiet as my 2000 generator. No delivery issues, everything was there and started right up. Also my neighbor was so impressed that he just bought one.
