LOOKS GOOD SO FAR

The generator was delivered in excellent shape. I unpacked it and put the wheels alone by myself. It is easy to move around with the handle bar. I used Propane to start it up after adding the crank case oil. I pushed the key fob remote once and the engine automatically cranked three separate time then started. It is pretty loud but what can you expect? Inside I could barely hear it though on the other side of the house. I plugged in a light to see if it worked, and it did. So far, so good. The electrician comes soon to wire a transfer switch.

Very well engineered!

The setup couldn’t have been easier. Up and running in well under 15 minutes! Included funnel works great for the application, no spills! Hooked up to the propane tank, one press of the button and off it went. The manual could use some updating as some steps aren’t necessary since Westinghouse has already done them for you at the factory (battery connection and remote pairing as two examples). Excited to test it under load once the transfer switch is setup.

Great for emergency home use

Bought to be used for home power outages and I used it within a week to power the house when we lost power due to a storm. We have a 50 amp interlock kit installed on our house. We have not used it very long, we generally get power restored within 6-12 hours. But it works great so far.

Almost ready to go out of the box

This product surpassed my expectations because of how everything is laid out and how easy it is to set up and get started. The key fob is also nice because I can stop the generator without having to physically go to it. Great product but with confidence.

Great features at an affordable price

We finally had to use our generator a few days ago, because of a prolonged power outage. It was more than satisfactory, generating the power required to keep our most important appliances running and helping to preserve hundreds of dollars of frozen goods.

Started Right Up, 1st Try!

Simple set up, Started 1st try with Remote Start, Dual fuel option is very convenient, 50amp plug is perfect for whole home power to include running a 4 ton A.C. start up, utilizing an Micro Air Easy Start to lower start up amps. Good investment for peace of mind plus 3yr warranty, makes for an excellent purchase to be ready for ERCOT rolling blackouts.

Lot of Bang for the Buck

New home needs a new generator. This model should be plenty strong to keep us warm/cool depending upon the season and out of the dark should commercial power fail. Cant beat dual fuel and remote start is a plus! Much easier on the wallet than a “whole home” standby generator.

This surprised me!

Everything was in the shipping carton. No damages to carton and items were protected inside. All the parts were there and everything fit. Tools, oil and neat funnel (No drips). I read the manuals first and found some great information about the generator. I want to use LP due to issue with storing gas (leave it at that). So, looking forward to getting a fresh LP tank, install an interlock to breaker box and test this puppy out!!

The Beast!

Generators are the new 'must-have' item when you live in California (sigh...). I bought this bad boy to power most of my house. It does not disappoint. Starts quickly. I will say that it is very loud. Be prepared for that. But, here in CA, when they shut off the power, my generator is not the only one running in the neighborhood, so no one complains...Would purchase again in a heartbeat.
