I haven't had prolonged use, but so far so good! I conditioned it with a couple of oil changes, and the unit seems great! I only rated 4 stars because I have not had a chance to use it for a prolonged period. I ran it next to my Honda 2000i and it seemed slightly more quiet than the Honda! Overall, so far, happy with the purchase.

I bought this generator to replace the Onen 4K generator in my motor home. I have had to remodel the compartment just a little to make it fit but so far I think it will do the job well. The fuel economy, the quietness and the remote start makes this an excellent choice for camping, RVing or backup power for the home.

I really like the way this generator is designed. Its basic construction looks well-done (I peeked under the plastic in several places). Plus there is an attention to detail that seeks well of to. For example, the generator comes with its own funnel for adding oil, AND the funnel screws into the filler neck - no spills! Ran it for an hour and drained the oil - no filings or discoloration on of the oil, very clean. Takes a sudden load very well - a dip, then right back to needed rpm. Very pleased!

Only issues I had were that it ws difficult to tell when I had filled it with the proper amount of oil, and getting the battery cables connected together was very difficult because of the tight space, sharp edges of the case, and very short leads that it made it difficult for the very tight plug.

I purchased this generator as a backup power supply for key circuits in my house during power failures, I purchased an inverter generator because I plan to run my computer and my home entertainment center and wanted clean power (Total Harmonic Distortion less than 3%) but also enough power output to run the refrigerator and 110 volt well pump. I've had the unit long enough to run it through its break-in period and check out the basic features. I like the way the exterior of the unit is sound proofed. It is quieter than my previous generator which had a smaller power output but no sound proofing. I appreciated the way the folks at Westinghouse thought through things. I read reviews that complained about adding/changing the oil, but was pleased that rather than make the customer come up with some sort of workaround, they included what was needed, like an oil filler tube. I also appreciate the pull-out handle and the design of the wheels - with the handle, moving the unit is really no more trouble than wheeling a heavy suitcase. The front panel display is well laid-out and everything's labeled nicely. The Digital data center is especially helpful. I've tried all three methods of starting the unit and it starts easily, even with the recoil pull handle. The key fob starter is a major upgrade for me, and I love the idea of having things set up (say during an ice storm) and only having to flip the power switch on my main panel and hit the key fob to be up and running. Fueling is also set up nicely, there's a fuel filter in the neck of the tank, and a well thought out trough surrounding the filler neck to direct spilled fuel off of the unit.

Originally bought the Generac iq3500 the unit was heavier with no wheels. Not very portable, 2 people needed just to move position. Sent it back and bought this. Nice portable generator with more power, wheels and extending handle. Starts first time using electric starter. Test run over the weekend worked great!

Got this at the end of the WuHon virus nonsense and it's been working great. I got a model dated 2019 and looks like all complaints have been addressed like the 30amp socket is facing the correct way, no issues with choke, the data display looks like it's a bit different than I've seen in other reviews. The display I have you have to manually switch between the different readouts, butnin other videos it looks like the data readout just cycles through them automatically. This is not a big deal to me. Frankly I'll probably just keep it on fuel remaining hours for the most part.

This little guy checked all the right boxes for purchase!! Quieter than most other gens out there, easily portable, CARB compliant, competitive price compared to similar brands/makes, solid/sleek chassis, power supply that fit our needs, electric/key fob/manual start options, an "eco" mode that gas-saves when applicable, and easily readable data/outlet/breaker/switch panel on front. Awesome features! I only have one critique for design which is the oil fill/drain plug and tank. (Which is why its "Good" and not "Excellent" rating.) 1) it is not easy to visually inspect oil level. The picture in the manual gives a perspective view of proper level, but that isn't very easy to evaluate in "real life". The dipstick is small and oil-capture etching is a little light. 2) It is not very accessible: the plug is quite inset in panel/machine. 3) Adding oil for the first time was messy, even though, supplied container was the exact size of oil tank, and the funnel should have prevented spillage. (In retrospect, the machine should have probably been tipped slightly for easy pour? maybe instructions can be updated for future newbies like me.) 4) Removing oil is also a bit cumbersome. Instructions do indicate tipping machine (in this case) to assist in draining, but the machine is heavy so it is a "2 person job". Knowing the above in advance would not have dissuaded me from purchasing, but it would have prompted a bit more research beyond what is provided in instructions. Overall, It is a great little gen that serves our needs. It powered our fridge, entertainment center and a couple of laptops with ease! No sags, surges, breaker-trips or anything. Would absolutely recommend to friends/family, and even purchase again for paralleling. (Know your extension cords for purchase too: this will make a big difference for gen usage!)

I just got this today through FedEx and I am so excited. I added oil, connected the battery, and added gasoline. I slowly pulled the starting cord just to get the oil moving around before I actually started the generator. After that I turned it on and used the remote start to start the generator and wow!! It immediately fired up and was soooo quiet it surprised me. I’ve read a ton of reviews on many inverter generators and this seemed to be the best for the wattage output. I can not wait to hook it to our camper this weekend. I am beyond excited about this generator, it seems very well built and I haven’t seen one blemish on it yet so far like some have seen when they unboxed it. I’m impressed so far and so are the kids and wife lol.
