Better than I expected!

I bought this inverter generator to use for boondocking our RV and I couldn't be happier with the purchase; for the price point and quality there really is no match. The duel fuel function was an absolute lifesaver on the last night of our campout, when I ran out of gas and seamlessly switched to propane.

Good for the $ and decently quiet.

I bought this almost a month ago. Took a little while to receive it via FedEx. Once received it smelled like old gas and the front plastic was smashed in. Cleaned it out, added the oil and it's running smoothly so far on propane. Haven't tried gasoline yet. Had to take the front plastic apart to get it back to where it needed to go. Luckily it wasn't cracked. For the money it's decently quiet and has the power output we needed.

Easy to Use

I'm 80 years old, therefore we needed something that we can operate. I did a lot of study beforehand. The electric start was of the utmost importance, and we needed a generator with an RV hookup. Being avid campers, the dual fuel was a real plus as we already have the propane gas on the camper. Lastly, the name Westinghouse just wraps up the whole package. Thank you for such a fine product.

Excellent Generator!

We just bought this generator at the beginning of December knowing the we get many power outages in the winter months. We just had to give it a trial run and it worked beautifully! We had zero issues with startup. The unit is quiet, much quite than we anticipated, which we love! The remote start is a really neat bonus feature as well. We're confident this is the perfect generator for our families needs. Highly recommend!

Simple setup, came with oil

They give you just a little bit too much oil, so don't dump it all in, keep a few ounces back. The funnel actually threads in which is really handy. Haven't tested it with the camper yet, but sure it will work fine. Got a good deal at a big box retailer that had it marked at the 4500 price.

Easy to start and quiet.

Bought to use during power outages, so haven't actually used for a long period. However, the instructions were easy to follow, and it cranked right up and is as quiet as I hoped it would be. Going to put it to a real test before the next power outage.

so far so good

Looks good so far. Fired right up on both gas and propane. I'm in process of running through break in period. Very easy to move around. The battery was a little tricky to get hooked up; need someone with small hands to get it into its place. Somewhat noisier than I'd hoped; I measure about 68dB at 25ft, but that's on a concrete patio with house on 2 sides, so probably not too bad. I'll normally run at 35 feet or so and expect noise to be not bad at all. The wireless start will be great for night time control.

Great Generator

I ordered this Generator June 1, 2020. The Generator was on back order so it was delivered today October 30, 2020. That is a 5 month wait. I was not happy about this. Once the generator did show up I unpacked it and followed the installation and start up procedures. Everything was simple and straightforward. Started the generator up on propane, engine started right up with no problems. Ran quiet and remote start and stop worked great. Also tried out the elect start and the pull start both worked great. I almost cancelled my order but glad I didn't as I believe this generator will serve my purposes as I originally thought. Maybe the Covid 19 has held up the production of this unit?

Works Great. Excellent choice for Emergency outage

Used it with propane for 2 days during the Tropical Depression Beryl that left many of us in Houston without power for 2 days. I ran the fridge, a window AC, and all the house lights, even the the occasional microwave use and no hiccups at all. Easy to use and connect. I would highly recumbent this generator.

Great features!

Easy start-up, works great, remote start works great, great features like digital display power and fuel usage, love compact size and operationally quiet. I just purchased so haven't put it to a great test as of yet. But so far, it looks and operates great out of the box.
