As advertised - easy set up

Just purchased for our RV trailer. Followed the set-up/break-in instructions. Ran consistently and performed as we expected. Provided stable, consistent power. Noise was not bad - no complaints from our neighboring campers, and we ran out nonstop for almost 5 hours as per the break in directions.

Does the Job and is really quiet

I've only had this for a few days but my racing neighbor has one and it seemed to work awesome. He did have his die after about 500hrs but westinghouse warrantied it and sent him a new upgraded version. I have the upgraded version as well and hope to have a trouble free ownership. Can run the A/C, fridge, and the air compressor at the same time or the heat and coco maker at the same time.

RV ready plug in

I bought this generator a few days ago because of an electrical emergency at home. And i was not disappointed. fill it with the supplied oil using the spout in the kit, poured in gas and tree cranks later i was up and running. Later i used the remote and no problem. Love it.

Meets - and Exceeds - Expectations

Having never used a generator before, I was nervous about the set up and maintenance and both are a breeze. The manual is clear and concise and covers everything in good detail. It's sturdy yet easy to move with the inbuilt handles and pull-out handle. Great product!

So far, so good!

This generator seemed to be the best "bang for the buck" for a big inverter unit. Once full of and fueled up, it fired right up and ran smooth and quiet. We connected it to our RV, turned on the 15000btu AC, and the generator barely grunted as the AC kicked on. I think we're gonna LOVE this generator!

Full Feature, Fantastic Price

I did a deep internet dive researching comparative products. For the price, this generator is chock-full of many of the features I was looking for. Other products had some of these specs, but not all in one product like the Westinghouse. It also looks sturdy and well made and provides more usable power than other higher priced generators.

Not recommended for first time buyer

Received new generator with noticeable rust at fuel tank neck. Immediately contacted Westinghouse who ensured me this is normal. Ran generator to make sure every thing worked (using sta-bil added fuel). Tested generator 2 month later to make sure every thing worked fine before storm season but generator would not maintain power and kept turning off. Checked online and found service bulletin with instruction on manual fix by opening the cover and manually adjusting choke. So assumed this was known issue and dropped off at local service center. I am told the carburetor was gummed/dirty and this would not be covered under warranty. Called up Westinghouse and service rep politely read instructions: for "2 month storage the float bowl has to be emptied of fuel". Not having emptied the fuel from the float bowl broke the generator in 2 month. Hard to believe that if I had turned on the generator few days earlier, the generator would had work. The fact that there is a service bulletin that was created to temporary fix this exact problem actually exists suggests there is a model wide quality issue. Also Westinghouse claiming rusted fuel tank is normal also suggests this model is cheaply made. Can not recommend for first time generator users. I suspect the rust and carburetor issues are tied. Also, this generator requires lots of maintenance that must be followed accurately. Being 1 day late will break unit.

Super Quiet

So happy after starting this generator. It was so quiet I could hardly tell that it was on and running. The day it arrived there was power outage and was able to power up the essentials, refrigerator, Tvs, microwave etc. I can now discard my old noisy generator and keep everybody happy.

Awesome features

I just received my new generator and I love it. The things I love: It has the correct receptacle for my RV (don’t need adapter), data display so you know exactly how much fuel/load/run hours, electric start works great, the manual that comes with it covers everything even has parts break downs and part numbers for replacement parts and service parts, and has a large enough capacity to power my entire RV with room to spare.

Has all the features that one would need !!!

I bought this for a backup for my camper if we are boondocking. Also wired up a receptacle on my house with an interlock switch on the breaker panel to power up my house when we experience power outages. This unit does everything that you would expect it too. Very easy to operate, my wife is very comfortable in starting it and running it.
