grear quality and features for the price.

Purchased product a short time ago and have used for several hrs with no issues what so ever.Living remotely in maine, we loose power frequently throughout the winter months and now feel very secure knowing we have the stand by power. I am very pleased with this unit and look forward to many years of use.

Hardest starting generator I've ever used

For an easy start generator, this is the hardest starting thing I've ever had to contend with, and I use generators on construction sites frequently. I wanted this for house emergency power, but it drains the battery to start it, so that's pointless, and it won't start manually either. If you shake it just right as it's starting, it will turn over. Too bad it's not returnable because I used it ONCE to see if the transfer switch worked and it would power my home

Great bang for the $$$, awesome power and value

I live in Florida and figure that with the way 2020 is going to so, we're likely to get blasted with hurricanes all summer long, and my 6250/8500 generator of a different brand is not going to cut it for my family if we lose power for an extended amount of time. So I sold that unit and purchased this beast. First off, this is a great value, I looked at similar capacity generators from all the other major brands and this is the best value for power and overall features. The unit was delivered to my driveway and after unpacking I was able to put the wheels and feet on in a matter of minutes. I followed the instruction manual for adding oil, connecting the battery, pairing the remote, etc. I added about a gallon of fuel for the initial break-in. It started up pretty quickly - the starter had to crank it about 5 or 6 times before it fired initially, but it has started on the 1st or 2nd crank every time since. My initial impressions are very positive, it appears to be a very well built unit. It is noisy, but all non-inverter generators are noisy, and I actually think it is slightly less noisy than the older, smaller unit it replaced. Next step is to have an electrician install a transfer switch, stock up on beer, and then we are storm ready, and the beer will stay cold through it all!

Easy to start!!!!

Purchased this after going10 days without power and needing help to start my OLD generator. I'm 92 years old and using this push button start and having a remote starter device gives me such peace and assurance for our next power outage. THANK YOU!!!!

Excellent value for the money

Bought this a month ago when we had a local severe storm, Our electric stayed on but our daughters was off for four days. After 10 hours off we had to scramble the entire family to find enough space for her freezer and fridge contents. Because of corona virus everyone was well stocked with their own goods to avoid frequent trips to grocery store. It took six households refrigeration space to accommodate her needs and we still lost some of the cheaper condiments etc. Done right, this unit will run my entire house and the fact that it is portable will allow me to lend it out if above described circumstances happen again.

Outstanding Adaptability!

The generator is an excellent design. Moderate weight for a whole home power system. Adapts on the fly for the available fuel, and is easy to assemble the common parts like the wheel system. Was packaged excellently and had no problem moving. Thank you Westinghouse!

Great Generator!

I bought this generator for backup power when the local power grid goes down, which it frequently does during bad weather. So glad I did! It basically powers our whole house! Everything from the well pump to the fridge, even the hot water heater! I love the 6.6 gallon tank, it means I can fill it before bed and sleep knowing it will still be running in the morning. The remote start is also nice in cold weather, I can start it from the window and it will be already warmed up and ready by the time I go out to hook it up. I would definitely recommend this generator.
