Easy to set up and real quiet.

My generator arrived in good condition with all the advertised accessories for remote start and dual fuel operation. Adding the initial oil was not difficult and startup was super easy with electric start. This unit is so quiet that I can barely hear it from the other side of the house.

Easy set up

Got this trailer camping. It was easy to setup up, except that the SAE plug on the battery had been crushed when I opened it, so I had to tweak that back into shape (round). Not a big fan of the oil fill/change method; you better hope you don't over fill by 1 milliliter, or you will have spillage inside the case. I put a folded shop towel in there to catch any residue, and I'm glad I did. Otherwise, generator works great, although the display is not rotating like it says it will. Good purchase

Easy to use

I just purchased the dual fuel generator and I am so happy just to hook it up with propane and use it. I love that the system is enclosed, no assembly was required and it was easy to set up and start with electronic ignition. The engine is quiet for a generator and will keep us out of the dark and warm.

easy start, very reliable so far!

I absolutely love this generator, super easy to use and haven't had an issue yet! the only design flaw I've found was the oil drain- Westinghouse please make it easier to get to, add a valve and a hose so its less mess. the hole in the bottom of the plastic case doesn't even line up with the drain plug

Super quiet, easy setup!

Just picked up this unit from the hardware store and I'm really surprised how quiet the unit is sitting in the back yard! I tried both the gas and propane at full power (no load) and this generator is quieter than my outside A/C unit. The pull out handle at the bottom is very sturdy. Don't add the whole bottle of oil at first; start with half! Exited to use this for my camper at the deer lease.

Great generator!

The generator started right up after adding the supplied oil and a little gas. Remote start is the best. Make sure to keep the battery charged to last overnight or it will go dead and remote start won't work. Haven't tried the unit on propane yet (might get 5 stars after I do) but runs quiet on gas and has plenty of power. Purchased and installed the high altitude injector in the carburetor for our camping locations.

Great RV camping generator runs 30amps

I bought this about a month ago and started it just now tested and it seems to work great with the propane. I haven’t tried the gasoline part of it out yet. I tried manual start, Electric start and the remote key fob start and shut down they all work terrific! On the first start it did take a little while and attempted approximately four times before starting due to the air in the line from the propane tank to the generator. I did try to start it after that a few times in each way and it worked tremendous first time every time!

Love that it is Dual Fuel!

Brought it home - filled with oil - connected battery - filled with gasoline - hooked up to Propane. All super easy! Pushed electric start button and it immediately started and purred like a kitten. Easy switch back and forth from gasoline to propane. Seamless! I love it! Perfect for my Fifth Wheel Camper!

Great for camping

Works great for camper. Only used once for camping can run everything on our camper at the same time. It was on the hitch mount carrier and could not hear it inside with TV on low volume. No more setting generator 50ft away from camper to have a conversation. Don't try to start on eco mode, if it doesn't start the first try, check the eco mode switch.

Loaded generator!

Just breaking it in now, but so far I’m impressed with all the features. Starts right up. All parts seem quality. Runs what I need to so far. I knocked off one star because it’s louder than I expected…still way better but than my old open frame. But I have yet to measure the 54 db they claim…more like 74. Overall I’d still recommend it.
