Don’t wast your money!

I have had nothing but problems with this generator. I bought it to use with my RV. Fron the beginning, the run-time readout didn’t wotk and it kept tripping offline under light load. I finally took it in for warranty repairs and found out that inly the parts are civered under warranty, but, the labor is the big expense. The repair shop was not avke yo get the run- time indicator working after replacing parts and many hours of labor. They suggested that i “just look in the tank” to see how much fuel is left. I am now on an RV trip and can’t get the generator started. Spend the extra miney and buy a reliable generator. Don’t get stuck with a piece of junk that won’t start when you need it!

PERFECT FOR TRAVEL TRAILER

We purchased this unit to power up our travel trailer in the fall of last year but just got around to powering it up this past weekend. We look forward to using it both in the travel trailer and for the house when the power goes out. We love the quietness of this unit and the ease of starting it. Three options to start: Pull chord, push button and remote. As senior citizens, ease of operation is imperative.

Great Value for the price point

Have had several Westinghouse Generators , Wanted this one as its the quieter Inverter type , with cleaner power. Also this model line has been out for about 5 years so spare parts should be available for many years. Started right up after putting in oil and securing battery , Only Gripe is a little shipping Damage - but that seems like the way it is unfortunately when shipping. There Warranty support is usually pretty good resolving issues. Will primarily be using this as a home back up , my old one was a traditional open frame DF5300 - good generator but loud. would recommend !

Generating Power

I bought this to run my travel trailer while camping. I also bought this generator to run the house when we have a power outage. I filled it up with oil, and it started right up. I plan on running it for a few hours with a light amp load to help break the engine in.

Great Generator

Received the generator, unboxed, connected battery, put in the oil and gas an wham the unit started on the first try. It will run my 30 amp motorhome with no problems. The only issue with this generator so far is the 30 amp RV plug is installed upside down. That was an easy fix though. It's light enough I can pick it up by myself. I would recommend this generator to anyone.

Fair rating

When I purchased the product it did not come with the item listed in the manual so I called and they were shipped to me. The plastic exterior all cracked and we were sent the pieces but due to the construction it took an experienced mechanically inclined person over 3 hours to replace. We did an oil change at the same time and 1 month later after running it roughly 14 hours it stops running. Just about 1 year to the date of original purchase. This is too much maintenance. Pros are it is very quiet when it ran and used very little gas.

Awesome Inverter Generator

I used this inverter generator after hurricane Milton and was blown away at the ease of operation, power, and gas consumption. It starts with a push of a button, it ran every thing I need it to run, and I only filled it up once. It just keeps going and going and going. I’m blown away with how little gas this uses. I highly recommend you purchase this!

Incredibly quiet!

Bought this generator for the off shore camping we do. It’s so quiet and starts right up. I love the remote so we can start it up right inside our trailer. Love that I don’t have to pull start it as my shoulder is messed up. We are really happy with this purchase.

problems to start

Works great once you remove all the covers and locate the electrical connections for the automatic choke. The plug is not connected so you have to manually close the choke to get the unit to start. After this 15 min fix it works great and starts everytime. This seems to be a common issue so home the mfr fixes this not everyone mech knowledge.

Great Features!

We bought this for our camping trip. We love it! It works great for our 39 ft fifth wheel. We are camping in a location with no electric and it powers the A/C. We love the remote control, great feature.The only negative we have so far, are scratches on exterior. It is scratched all over and that is with the cover on it that we purchased to prevent marks. For the price range, this should not have scratched this easily. This is why I did not rate it 5 stars.
