Quiet and easy to use

I bought this generator for our first dry camping trip with our 24' travel trailer. It was easy to hook up as we only needed to plug in our 30 amp shore power cord to the generator. We used it about 3-4 hours every morning on a 3 day camping trip, and used less than a half tank of gas. We used our coffee pot, toaster, microwave and our electric fireplace for morning heat. The generator performed as advertised, and was very quiet. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking to power an average size trailer.

Everything we wanted

I bought this Item September 30, 2018 and was getting ready to go camping for the first time since we bought the generator(4/4/2019).We put oil in it and and gas connected the battery and pushed the start button. The generator started although it was leaking fuel faster then using it.When I buy names like Westinghouse I don't think its to much to ask for the product to work. My next step will be to contact Westinghouse.We really like the features of this product.

Smart Buy

This inventor was purchased prior to Hurricane Florence. Although we did not have to use it for a long period, it was easy to set up and start. It ran quietly and clean. I powered more appliances and electronics then expected. It ran for over 10 hours on one tank of gas. Highly recommended. Ian

Unbelievable generator!

After using two conventional generators for camping which were so loud it was annoying to those around us, we purchased this item. It is super quiet, unbelievably easy to start, a great product for the price and the remote start is awesome for cold mornings! So glad we purchased this generator! We have recommended it to fellow campers!

Excellent product. Great features, clean power!

Connected this through an interlock kit into the whole house. Runs everything. Although needed to grab some power from the regular outlets to capture the whole 4500 peak. I run the refrigerator off of that set of outlets and the RV plug goes into the power panel. I created my own cable to split the single hot lead into two that go to both hots in a L14-30 then to a double 30 amp breaker which then powers both legs of the panel. You can't get 240 of course, but you can use all 120 circuits that way. Get an interlock kit or use a cutover panel; only safe way to ensure you don't energize the main utility grid and kill a lineman.

Greatgenerator

Just received it a few days ago, it took a while to get it going, would start and shut down, every time I restarted it, it would run longer and longer. After 4-5 restart it runs continuously. Very quiet!!! and very easy to move around. Love the remote start!!

The perfect inverter generator

I purchase this unit two weeks ago after experiencing several days of no power during hurricane Beryl. This unit has all the features I need. It is currently still in the Break-In-Period. Started up on the first push and still does. So far it has perform well and it is really quite. I would definitely recommend.

Very good so far!

Bought this 4 months ago, and the ONLY problem I had with it was finding the serial number, which turned out to be just below the exhaust port. (Due to my own laziness I didn't get around to calling Westinghouse for help for several weeks, and then due to health and personal maneuverability reasons I had to wait till my son could help me. That was another few weeks ago, and only now am I finally getting around to registering and writing this review. NONE OF THAT is the fault of Westinghouse!) Following the simple instructions, my son helped me un-box the unit, fill the oil, add a small amount of gas and get it started. It took several tries at first, but eventually fired up and ran fine. I shut it off, waited a few minutes, and then it started again on the first try. I repeated this several times. So far I'm very confident in this generator. It runs quiet and that was important to me.

Very Quiet

Happy to have finally purchased this for back-up power. Very easy to start with all of the following options: remote, push button, pull cord. The only problem is that this unit came with an outdated manual. Found the correct and updated manual online.
