Have not used for emergency yet but assembly was easy and started with no issues. I have only run it on propane because I will use infrequently and didn't want to deal with draining the carb. Overall seems solid and will update if any issues once I use for loss of power.

Very simple to assemble the wheels and 2 front stands. I used a 2X4 on the front stands to make assembly easy. It took entire container of oil that is supplied in box with generator. The funnel supplied made it drip and spill proof, just need to ensure that you pour slowly. I only hooked the propane tank up but it started up after 3 auto cranks(used remote key fob). Every start after has been no problem. It’s much quieter than my power mate 6500. Has all the hookups one could need from running power saws to hooking up to transfer switch and running house power. Look forward to using this when we lose power. If you aren’t sure on buying this, check out the unit on YouTube. I was convinced when I saw a video of it running furnace and AC!

This generator is big enough to power my entire house. Love the remote start feature along with the push button start. Installed wheels, added oil and gas, pushed remote start and it started right up. No longer need to pull a cord to start. So much easier.

Excellent features, particularly digital readout for real time AC cycle, Voltage, Hour meter, main breaker and maintenance reminder. They even included a battery charger for the starter battery. 50 Amp and the ability to get more Watts with gasoline if necessary. It fired right up on propane after straight forward initial setup (under an hour includes unpacking) with tools provided (you need your own wrench(s) for the propane line). Nice fit and finish quality and details like ball bearing wheels, battery switch and top hinge outlet covers. I removed the battery and a wheel to lace in the 50 Amp chord and zip tied to the battery to avoid wheel chafe. Very pleased with it!

I bought this to replace a smaller generator on which I was tired of replacing carburetors. This was, in my opinion, a GREAT value for the features but I was even more pleased when it arrived and I saw the quality of the product. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a portable generator with the power to run your whole house.

I bought this generator last week, and it seems perfect to run all my electrical appliances during a power outage! One small problem with attaching one of the legs. The threading in the screw hole is messed up and the screw won't go in all the way.

After a lot of debate and watching a lot of YouTube videos, we finally chose this generator. It came with all the parts. With the wild weather we are having and all the fires in our area, we will be needing it any day. Wouldn't ya know, the power did go out for 6 hours before we bought the extension cords . . .

brought this unit roughly 1 month ago.wanted a dual fuel to avoid gas lines. this unit started up 1st time right out of the box.the price was right,other manufacturers price was more than double.easy hook up to gas or propane.plenty of power to supply full power to my house

I purchased this email after using my sister Westinghouse 6500 generator that we used for two different power outages. Since we have purchased this generator, we have not had to use it. When It was easy to put together but at the end of putting it together, I missed the item about putting the quick connect on the battery. Then tried to start it at a different time and it would not start so I was checking trouble shooting items and did not see this noted. I finally called the 855 # and got a case #. I reread the operation & maintenance again and did not find anything that I was doing wrong. Then I went back through the assembly portion of the user manual and notice the last item was to put the quick connect together on the battery. After doing that the unit started right up. Now we are all set for the next power outage.

I bought this Generator to power my house and/or out 50amp RV for emergency back up. This generator is perfectly suite for my needs. It has the 30amp and 50amp receptacles plus 120vac 20amp duplex receptacles. 9500watts on gas and 8500watts on LPG is an incredible amount of power.
