Solidly built!

We live in Maine and so happy to have purchased this during the winter storms! The remote start is a luxury that I wish we had upgraded to a long time ago! It appears durable and I love the versatility of being able to use both gas and propane. It appears to be solidly built and I am hopeful it will be durable enough to hold up for many more years!

Everything I need and more!

I only purchased this 4 days ago, but I am already thrilled with it. The same day I got it, I pulled it out of the box, put the wheels and feet on. (Very simple I might add, and everything I needed to do it was included.) Then I proceeded easily attach the battery power with the snap fitting on it, add the oil, gasoline, turn on the fuel cutoff valve, flip on the power ready switch, and I pushed the start button on the remote key fob. Voila!, it started right up on the first try, and the amperage meter quickly topped out at maximum wattage. I don't have a transfer box on my 1800 square ft house yet, so I thought I would just experiment with a few appliances. I plugged in two full size refrigerators, two mini fridges, my washer, my dryer, and the five big screen televisions that are in the house. I also added two electric fireplaces, and just for kicks, three computers, and a couple space heaters. This thing is a Beast! it didn't even measure half of it's capacity. I am confident that when I do plug it in to the whole house circuit box, it will have no difficulty in performing at a satisfactory level. This in my opinion is a must buy..

Great generator, great deal

We purchased this generator as a backup supply for our main camp building. Though initially purchased in case of winter storm outages, we have used it multiple times already this summer during short periods. It has started every time and been a big savings to our program and supplies!

Well thought out design

I was able to go from carton to operation in a couple of hours. All the operational features are well explained in the manual with simple instruction. Pairing the remote was easy. Didn't expect the battery charger and charging port. Started immediately in both fuel modes.

Great overall

Looks nice, great warranty, good value, great features (such as the electronic starter, and the remote keyfob to start), very good power output. Love the dual-fuel aspect. Wish it was a little lighter, a little quieter, and the main plug is awkwardly-placed over the wheel such that it's a tight fit over it (I think it is something the design team needs to address for the next gen), but overall a solid pick!

Awesome Generator, Sleek and Quiet

Bought this generator to power my whole home after having rolling power outages! This thing is awesome, it’s sleek and a lot more quiet than I thought it would be. Extremely happy with my purchase and now I don’t have to worry about my family going without!

Finally do not have to worry about losing power!

When we got hit by a Derecho we lost power for almost two weeks and we did not have a generator. Now with this power house I will not have to worry about losing power again. The dual fuel is a great feature because most gas stations do not have back up power so when you are out of gas you need an alternative, propane (which never expires).

Awesome Power (Until it broke)

I have owned this Generator for over a year. Does not start when temperatures are too cold Had some type of surge (I have a surge "Suppressor") and using a 10 gauge extension cord but still had something go wrong with power output. Generator runs good but no power output.

And a 3 year warranty

Bought this to prepare for any possible power outages due to natural or man made causes. Has all the features I want including a 50 amp outlet which will enable me to power most of my house when connected via a transfer switch. As long as I keep up with required maintenance, I do not anticipate any problems with this device for many years.

Westinghouse power horse Generator

After going through hurricane Ian, we realized we were unprepared for 12 days without electrical service. We decided on this excellent model which can operate all house systems including the central air, well water pump, water heater, etc. This model also has a transfer switch outlet built-in, and runs on two types of fuel- gas and propane. We installed a new transfer outlet through our local electrician. This allows the unit to be plugged into your breaker box, effectively allowing you to choose whatever systems you'd like to run. It is a great intervention, Yet I am in no hurry to use it! 😂 But it is sure nice to have a backup plan in Florida! A Cat5 Hurricane can be devastating, but the aftermath is unbearable! Be prepared!
