Great Generator

This generator runs good, its is not obnoxiously loud. It has been running for over 5 hours and I haven't used a half of a tank of fuel yet. It's got a lot of options, battery trickle charger, and key fob for remote start which is going to be handy. The tri-fuel feature is awesome. Overall, I like this generator so far.

Easy to set up and use

I brought this tri fuel generator about 4 months ago. I have now tested it using gasoline and natural gas. First it was easy to assemble and start using the fob provided and the battery was already charged enough to start. It runs very quiet and clean. It was light enough for me to move around myself (and I am a senior). I built a wooden ramp to move it down a step where I wanted it to operate outside the garage. The only suggestion so far is the manual is not super clear as to the location and positions of some of the operational features such as the fuel on switch and the choke. Again starting the generator with the fob is very, very easy. Thanks.

Just What We Needed

After being without power following Hurricane Helene, we knew we needed a bigger generator with different options for fuel. This generator meets that need while supplying the power we need to run multiple refrigerators and freezers, heat, water, etc. Great purchase!

Good Features for the Money

I just received the generator today and thus far have been very impressed. Now, I've not started it yet, but it appears to be well-built and solid. After looking over all the reviews on these before I purchased it, I'm looking forward to trying out the remote start. It was packaged very well and assembly was simple.

Well built with great features

I purchased this generator to power my house during blackouts. This is my 3rd purchase of Westinghouse generators and I've found them to be superior in craftsmanship, features, and ability to start and carry full rated loads. I've had several "cheaper" generators and they always lack features that are important to me or engines that are large enough to start and carry their rated wattages, especially at my altitude of 6,215 feet above sea level. I tested this generator on gasoline using space heaters and a 240v welder and it functioned flawlessly. The noise level is acceptable. The electric start function works as expected. I am a satisfied customer and would purchase this unit again.

Love this generator

We bought this generator after our 3rd power outage and it was a great purchase. So easy to hook up and the remote start on this model is awesome! We ran it for over 6 hours and it only used about 3 gallons of gas. We love the fuel alternatives on this model. We have a propane tank and plan to connect it directly to our propane tank. We highly recommend this model.

False advertising

We haven't had to use this generator yet but I won't buy from westinghouse again as they lied to us. They said if we left a google review we would get a free cover for the generator. We never received it. Just another case of a company lying to the consumer.

Starts Great!

I just purchased this generator as an emergency power supply, so I haven't actual used it yet. The set-up instructions are nice and clear. The generator started on the first try using either the start/stop button or the remote. This is a great plus for me since I don't always have the strength to use a pull cord start. The only issues I have are the weight at over 200 lbs. (but I knew this when I made the purchase) and that the instructions mention an "ECO" switch that allows the generator to run longer on a tank of gas and to run more quietly. I see no "ECO" switch anywhere on the generator.

So far everything is fine.

I brought this generator today. I haven't used it yet but it was an easy setup. I'm one who reads all of the documents and then look at the video. I have a generator that I have not used. I got about 10 years ago. It's in the back of my shed. This one has a lot of features the old does have. Love the push button start and the oil funnel, might get another one. Well I need to go get some gasoline for it. I like the tri fuel option too. So far it's great. Will Williams

Happy to have

I bought this while preparing for a storm and was delighted to find it in stock. I'd been wanting one and finally decided to make the purchase. It's larger than what I thought I'd get but I'm glad I chose this larger one. Other than the weight making it difficult to load and unload, it has met our needs well.
