Easy set up; clear instructions

Had to wait for this generator due to lack of supply and high demand. Set up was amazingly easy, even for an oldster like myself. Instruction book is easy to understand, clearly written and well illustrated. Started easily and immediately. Remote start pairing instructions were clear and simple. Would buy this generator again.

Fantastic Generator!

I purchased this item October 14, 2020 and thankfully I didn't have to use it until the middle of winter here in Louisiana. My old unit was of another brand with 4500 watts output, and just couldn't power enough of the house. This year we experienced a very hard winter with snow and ice with extremely low temperatures for our southern state. Result no electricity for days! I went out and cranked this Westinghouse unit and I couldn't believe how good this system cranks, runs, and powers up my home with no bogging down or problems of any kind. Thanks Westinghouse for a brute of a generator! Sincerely, W.J.

Nice dual fuel generator

Started first attempt with remote. Nice dual fuel feature. Runs quiet for a generator this size. Have not truly went through the recommended 5-hour break in time. I don't post excellent reviews until I've had time to test the item after true usage.

Remote start, dual fuel and good quality

I bought this a couple of weeks ago, and the assembly wheels, stand and battery connection were a breeze. It took less than 1/2 hour. I used gas to run the unit, and it start on first try with the push button. I hooked the unit up to an 50 amp outlet, and turn off the power to test the unit. It work as advertised. I installed an EasyStart on my AC unit, and my AC unit started along with the freezer, refrigerator and all lights as well as outlets. The garage door opener worked as well. I also used the remote key fob to start and turn off the unit. It was a great price (Amazon). I have recommended the unit to other family members. I am totally satisfied and waiting for another power outage because I am prepared to have power. Awesome feeling..!!!!

First Generator

I just bought this and everything checks out just fine. I am concerned that I can't seem to find the two high altitude kits I need for operating at 9200 feet. Otherwise, it easily power selected circuits in our house, including being able to start our well pump (8000w start up). I never thought I would ever say, "Can't wait for the next power outage."

Solid well made generator

Just received this generator and I am pleased with its construction. After much research I believe that this unit will be just the backup power supply to meet my energy needs for my house during outages. The remote start seems like it will be very useful in cold weather.

Excellent Generator!

Purchased to use as a backup home generator. It works exceptionally well. The dual fuel capability provides excellent capability for any longer term outages. It was very easy to get up and running and provides plenty of power. The User Manual is very detailed, and at the same time, very easy to understand. I would recommend highly recommend this generator.

Very pleased!

Recieved and set up. Very impressed so far. I haven't had a power failure yet, but with hurricane just around the corner, I feel prepared. This unit comes with basic tools for maintenance, battery charger, remote start, and oil. And if I run out of gasoline, I can steal propane tanks from my gas grill.

Nice generator

I bought this unit after my 10 year old machine died. My fault on that one though. Forgot to check the oil. :-( This Westinghouse has plenty of power to run most of my house during power outages, which are not uncommon here is Maine. Love the electric start and also the remote start! Just got to remember to check the oil!! I'm happy with my purchase.

Great for Seniors

We haven't needed to use this generator yet but really needed it during last years hurricane Ian. Neither my husband nor I had the physical strength to start our old generator with the pull rope. Unfortunately we were without power for a day without a generator. We decided that we wanted something that, with a push of a button would start up. This led me to the Westinghouse brand generators. We were pleasantly surprised to find not only a push button start generator but this also came with a remote control!! This is a blessing for us who are nearing 70 years of age. We also chose the model that is also a dual fueled model....propane and/or gas. Usually during a hurricane, it's difficult to find gasoline so we thought we'd like the option to use whatever is available after a hurricane.
