So far so good

Had a 5500 generator (won't throw out names), it worked but really loud. This seems to be a little quieter. It didn't quite come with enough oil to fill it, ended up buying a gallon because I plan on doing frequent oil change for the break in period so not a huge deal to me. Remote works pretty well.

Very Easy Assembly, First Time Start:

I assembled this generator right out of the box, put the provided oil and added gas. First kick and the generator starts with no problems whatsoever. I am impressed by the generator. The sound level is acceptable and it is an excellent choice for my needs.

Awesome Generator

I am so happy that the westinghouse generator was suggested by my electrician! Absolutely great product! No sooner did I have it wired for use...my power went out. The generator was able to power my whole house 2500 sq feet, well, and waterheater (less my central air) with absolute ease. Such a lifesaver. Would definitely recommend

Top Rated Generator

This all the watts I need. Even with Electric start and a remote(that work 100%) I had to test it old school first and started 1st pull. Used twice already and runs smooth. Battery was wired already with a push connector(EASY).Handle was already on. Just had to install wheels and feet. Strong frame, has a maintenance schedule sheet, follow that and your good for years. Just a high quality generator.

Great Overall Generator

The generator came delivered with very little work to assemble the battery cable and wheels, then add the engine oil before filling with gas and firing right up. This has plenty of power for our transfer switch to power our home when the power goes out. The electric start with auto-choke and key fob start are just an added bonus!

Awesome generator

This generator is Awesome! It came with everything needed for start up. Hooked up battery and the generator started after a 1 second push on the electric start the first time. This generator will be used to temporarily power my house during a power outage. It powers almost my entire house without issue. My only gripe is the generator is heavy and although on wheels and I am able to move it without a problem it would be too hard for my wife to move it if she ever needed to.

Dont waste your money

Westinghouse will not replace and been in the shop for months. This is a new unit runs just zero power output, now I have to pay hundreds of dollars to have this thing fixed. I will never buy anything they produce after dealing with this. They sold me a total lemon

Top Notch

This generator came packaged nicely with very minimal assembly required. Extensive instructions help with all aspects of use storage and maintenance, as well as warranty. This generator packs a lot of power into a compact package and the flexibility to start it with a push of a button or by pulling the cord is nice option. I have not needed to run it yet besides just warming it up and getting the fluids moving but I'm sure it will work when I need it to. I use this as back up power in case of a prolonged electrical outage. My transfer switch was installed by an electrician who assured me that the generator would easily be enough for my 6 selected breakers ( water heater, pump, coal stove, fridge, wifi, etc). Living far away from town having this gives me peace of mind that my property wont suffer from frozen pipes or ruined groceries due to loss of power.

This thing is a beast

This thing is built like a tank. Solid and heavy but easy to move with the wheels and handle. Unpacked and put wheels/rubber mounts on, filled with oil and gas and had it running in less than 30 minutes. Started up on first try. Took the fob to one end of my property at 75yrd and it fired right up.

Great Upgrade

I had used a smaller unit for years and always needed to juggle breakers to make sure I didn't overload the smaller unit. This Westinghouse is set up for a transfer switch from the factory, has electric and remote start plus 50amps breaker protected of power! The quality of construction is obvious everywhere you look. I was comparing other units and was convinced to purchase the Westinghouse by the professional reviews I read. They were so emphatic about the quality and performance and they are right!
