Bad quality control

Generator would not start. Took almost an hour to get fired up. Whenit did, it started good after that. The next morning, it wouldn't start again. I goy online and found out ALL THE PROBLEMS these unit are having. Mine is the choke, witch usually was a wire being left off, but mine was on. I guess I have a bad unit. It has less than 20 minuets run time on it.

Nice and compact

We bought this to replace our larger 7000 Honda it’s as quiet as the large one and compact it runs our air conditioner and coffee maker at the same time that’s a big plus we do a lot of dry camping I’m by myself sometimes and it’s easy for me to load and unload whereas I could not the 7000 I had to depend on someone else I love this little thing

Great Generator, Excellent manual, Very Quiet!

My new iGen5000cv is just a quiet as my Honda 3000. It was very easy to add the initial charge of oil without spilling a drop since Westinghouse supplied a screw-on funnel to make the set-up easy. The Manual was created by folks that had generator experience and is an excellent document of safety, operation and maintenance. After adding oil, gas and moving the Fuel Switch to Choke, I pulled the Recoil Handel twice and it immediately started. Everything worked as described in the manual. Westinghouse has a great product that was produced with Quality as a Priority. I will tell all my friends who own rural property about this great generator at a very reasonable price. Thanks!

Powerful Gen

I bought this to use for my RV and around my property for running power tool and air compressors. So far it has been very strong and powers everything I've had to use. I had two 2000k generator before and they couldn't handle the load I needed. So far I'm impressed and I'm looking forward to using it with my RV.

A Great Buy!

Delivered on time and in excellent condition. Had it out of the box went to the quick start guide and added the oil and fuel. Used the remote start. Started on the second try. I let the engine warm up for 5 mins. and plugged in my 30amp cord to my travel trailer. Tested the a/c, frig. and lights. Just returned from a 2 day trip and no problems running the generator. Only used one tank of gas for the 2 days in the Keys. Great price!

Great rv generator

I bought this generator to power my 44ft toy hauler. I opted out of the onboard generator because I’ve read these happen to be quieter and more fuel efficient. This generator powers almost everything we need and runs for hours on a single tank. If you have a 50 amp trailer you may not be able to run both a/c but besides that, this generator is perfect.

Started up great!

I just got my generator and did my test runs on it. The machine is extremely quiet for the size of it and surprisingly light. It handled a shop vac and a hair dryer no issues bringing the usage up to 2.6 kw. 2 pushes of the electric start initially fired it right up! I am looking forward to powering my 15000 but trailer AC this summer with it!

Purchased item to power RV and at home.

Unboxed the generator filled with oil and gasoline. Connected battery and tried to start. Battery was dead. Pulled hand crank and started on first try. I have used around the house and it is working great. Will change oil and get ready for some camping.

What? A Quiet Generator????!!!!

Works great! We are so pleased. We went to a family camping reunion. We go every year to OR and we are always roasting due to the extreme heat! Whew! Well, this July we did our due diligence and went over the reviews and watched YouTube videos re this product. The reviews were overwhelming positive so we went for it. We actually wanted the dual fuel! but couldn’t find one anywhere! We knew that that would have benefited our purpose much better. But the quiet?? Amazing. We were the envy of all the other campers! Ha.

Bought this for the house as I had to borrow one when the hurricane came through. I love the electric start but the dual fuel is more useful plus it starts so easy my 65 year old mom could do it. I bought 3 total and could not be more happy with my purchases.
