best generator I've ever owed

Bought this Westinghouse unit to replace an old Briggs generator I had. New unit started right up and backfed my home service panel no problem Twice the power of my old unit and much quieter. Remote start/stop is very handy. Highly recommend this top of the line unit!

great name

I bought this portable generator to repower up my house after Hurican Heleen knocked out our power for days. I didn't want to go through that again, so not knowing which generator to purchase I decided on one that comes from a great named company. These folks have been around awhile!

RUNS THE WHOLE HOUSE

I bought this generator a year ago to be hurricane ready. Luckily we made it through this season without the need. I had a transfer switch and external plug added to the house. I am right now sitting in the house with the power off and the generator running. The air conditioner is on along with anything else I want to turn on. The generator is running the whole house. This thing is great, I'm so glad I bought it.

GREAT REPUTATION

Purchase this unit a few days ago after owning a smaller unit that I have had for a few years. With the on going power outages I needed a larger unit to handle the loads living in a house with well water and septic system. I know this unit will last a long time

Fits well for our needs

Bought this during hurricane tax free holiday in Florida so we can keep both the necessities and the niceties on if we lose power during a storm. Hope I never need it but cost effective to have around compared to multiple thousands for a built-in. Bought the dual fuel version to use LP and keep gas out of the lines so that hopefully, maintenance will be easier.

Just a advertised

Straight forward instructions, easy set up, and perfect first run. Running on propane to avoid the card issues. Initial run worked like a champ. We're set for outages and I feel like my family will be cared for, in part due to this piece of equipment.

What I wanted

Received two days ago, easy assembly right out of the box, have only used it to see how it works, how loud it was and was it as good as advertising and ratings showed. Not as loud as I expected, not overbearing. I bought it for house backup, more than enough to handle all my needs. Probably more than what I needed, but it's a beast. Glad I got it

No More Power Outage Problems!

Warranty replacement generator started immediately on propane. Power up, all outlets producing power. GFCI tests and resets on all. 2 120V AC dual outlets, 1 30 amp RV outlet, 1 50amp RV outlet. Dual fuel, gasoline or propane. The remote start came paired and operational. This amazing generator has an electric starter and battery, along with a trickle charger to keep it ready for service. The stowaway handle and large wheels make it really easy to move, even on rough ground. I don't know the decibel level, but this generator is only a little louder on propane than my 2200 quiet generator. This generator produces enough power to run my entire household. I love the flexibility of using gas or propane. I really like propane, because it is so much cleaner and easier to refill. It is a little heavy, but that's expected with the power and options. I can take it with my RV, use it for camping, or keep it as backup for my house where the power goes out frequently for more than 8 hours at a time. I bought this generator for the output and dual fuel capability. Remote start was a bonus. If you need house power backup, or a powerful generator for your RV camping, this one is great! I was one of the less than 1% of people who had problems with my first one of these generators. Warranty service replaced it immediately, and I am very happy.

Easy to start, runs great on LP

Purchased this as a backup generator. Wanted one that would store without fuel in the tank. Ran it for several hours on propane without a problem. Starts easy. Remote seems like a gimmick to me, the battery switch must be on to use it, will probably never get used. Had to get this before my liberal governor banned them entirely.

Powerful Portable Generator

With 2 electrical outages in the space of a week I turned to Westinghouse for a dual-fuel generator. Easy to assemble, very easy to move despite the weight, and very easy to operate. The remote start feature is particularly useful for us as we can set the generator up outside and fire it up via remote if/when an outage occurs without going outside. We opted for the dual-fuel model because we didn't want to get stuck if gas prices were to rise, and propane tanks are easy to store should they be needed.
