Love This Generator

I bought this 6 months ago after going through hurricane Helene and not having well water nor electricity for almost a week in addition to not having a transfer switch and having to run extension cords through the house. My old generator went out and I had another old generator new in the box as a back up, however it was not sufficient enough to run everything nor maintain everything therefore in order to prepare for the future hurricanes I bought this new Westinghouse one, which I was able to apply to more fridges, freezers, hvacs, water heater, and well water and perhaps not all at the same time depending on amps but at least several at the same time and alternating too. Also, I had installed a transfer switch that provided more power to the house with this new Westinghouse generator than running cords as I had to do previously. I have completed a few test runs to see how it would work and it was great. Just having running well water was awesome instead of having to haul a lot of water around and not to have to deal with extensions cords either. We will be better prepared next time and have positive experience in the future if we were to have a power outage of any kind due to any inclement weather with this new Westinghouse generator. Also, I love the push start as this would make it easier for some who struggle or do not have the strength to start up a generator and I love the remote the control too. Furthermore, I love the fuel options in addition to gasoline just in case you needed to other modalities. Keep making great products Westinghouse!

Just picked it up

Needed a generator for the upcoming winter storm. The product was easy to assemble and make ready for use. Started up immediately. However, it took some time to figure out how to get power. The instructions for use do not mention that you need to turn off the circuit breaker switch. Once I did that the power came on. So far so good. Time will tell how good the product is during use.

great product

I bought this due to living in florida with the hurricanes and it has performed well. It's large enough to power my 5th wheel 36 foot RV with 2 air conditioners. setup was easy, swapping between fuel sources just as simple. i enjoyed it so much, i had my company by the larger size for our usage on projects. well done

Peace of Mind

Just bought this generator after being without power for 5 days due to Ice Storm January 25, 2026. Feeling better prepared for the next outage. We live in tornado alley so im sure it will be used sometime this Spring. Thank you for the peace of mind!

Started on first try with non ethanol fuel. Remote is really nice. It makes things easy. Easy assembly. Important! If you do not have a low trailer have it delivered it's very heavy (built like a tank) and you will not be able to get it out of your truck by yourself! 250 pounds ish.

Excellent!

I bought this unit after getting by on a smaller generator during Helene. Wired up a transfer switch and added a natural gas connection. After this ice storm we went through in January 2026, this unit performed flawless for the 17 hour power outage we went through. I highly recommend this unit.

Love the features and fuel options.

Just bought this a few days ago and so far so good. Hoping to be able to rate this 5 stars after extended use. Love the remote start feature and the ability to use propane. I've owned gasoline powered generators in the past but I don't always use me generator on a regular basis and despite using fuel stabilizer it would style gum up the fuel system causing problems. Having a propane generator should resolve my past issues with generators in general.

Features I was needing

Generator had the features, such as tri-fuel and 240V capability for my well pump, that I wanted. Arrived on time and in good condition. Easy enough to assemble and I have run it for about one half hour to test it out. Primarily bought to power my house during power outages but will likely use it occasionally on our farm.

New Generator

I purchased this generator to replace an old. Set up was easy and I connected it to propane to try it out. Started right up. Being able to use propane makes keeping fuel on hand easier and not having to worry about gasoline going bad. We have power outages once or twice a year due to storms. The 50 amp plug will be handy to connect it to our panel when our electrician gets it setup. This model doesn't have the drain hose on the float bowel to drain it. Would have been nice instead of pulling the plug and catching the gas in a small container.
