Westinghouse Generator

We lose power more and more frequently in the last few years but the last one was when we returned home from a family trip. This was unexpected to say the least but we thought itt would only last a few hours. Until the next morning and all the food we had just purchased and what we have in the freezer was in jeopardy. We found the generator and it was and will be a great addition to the family and our piece of mind. The dual fuel aspect is also awesome. Gas or propane. YES!

Exactly what I need in a generator!

This generator fell right in the "sweet spot" of the power I needed while running on propane.(~5000 Watts) The quality is very obvious when setting up and running this generator. It started right up and runs great. I love the fact that it is dual fuel since my house runs on propane. Another thing that impressed me about it was the customer service. When I received the generator there was shipping damage that broke the air cleaner assembly. I called up the customer service line and got right through. The person I spoke with was very nice and offered to send the new air cleaner assembly right out. I had it in my hands within a week. Great job Westinghouse!!

Best purchase made

I purchased the generator in case of emergency and to my surprise, a high winds storm nocked out the power in my area. The house was getting colder and I was afraid the water pipes will freeze. I took the generator out of the box and followed the super easy instructions to assemble the wheels and rubber feet. I was getting ready to fill with oil and start using it when the power was restored and no longer need the generator. I'm glad because I read in the instructions about the break in period for the first hour.

Excellent Product

This is our first generator and it has worked flawlessly. We have used it on quite a few camping trips with our toy hauler in weather ranging from 60 degrees to 115 degrees. It works great in all conditions and is very easy to use and maintain. Highly recommended product, you will not be disappointed.

Great Generator

I just purchased this a week ago and love it. This fired right up on the first pull. I love the fact that I can used gasoline or propane with it. I highly recommend purchasing this generator especially in Florida when everyone is buying up all of the gas when a hurricane comes.

Good for the money

This generator is more than enough to the satisfy our needs for our submersible well pump, refrigerator, and lights in the event of a power outage. We do have an RV and the 30 amp receptacle is perfect. I like the idea of even running the generator on our RV propane tanks to power the AC through the electrical plug. Very convenient. Shipping was an issue, delayed, and the box was not pretty when arrived. However, that has nothing to do with the Westinghouse product itself. Overall, we are very please and a good deal for the price.

Easy to read use manual, easy to start

I set up the generator outside my garage and used it to power my table saw and Miter saw. I was able to complete my project without a lose of power. I ran out of gas on one occasion but was able to easily switch over to propane so I could finish my project. It was not as loud as I thought it would be.

Great generator for the price.

I bought this because I was tired of dealing with the power outages everytime there is a small wind storm. I got this model because it gives me enough power to run my refrigerator, sump pump, lights, Air conditioner or hear when needed. It also uses both gas and propane fuel so if we have another hurricane that knocks out the power and gas stations aren't able to pump either from not having power or not able to get a delivery at least I can still buy propane canisters and refill them giving me options. You will need 2 people to put this thing in your car and bring it home in the box. I did find out it was easier to get out of my van with it out of the box. As of yet I haven't experienced any major power outages so use is limited. But this item comes with a 3 year warranty so I think I'm safe as for this generator lasting.

Everything I expected

I bought the Generator a week ago and it was delivered today, a week before the scheduled delivery. The directions were very good and I did not have any trouble installing the wheel kit. The generator started on gasoline with the first pull and I ran it for about an hour without any load. The shipping box did not show any damage and I was very pleased with the delivery.

Looks good out the box

I Bought this generator this month October 2022. Arrived prior to the expected delivery date which was great. Easy assembly , only needed to add the wheels and oil. Oil was in included. I wait later to add gas. It really looks good. I am not wishing for a power outage however can’t wait to use it. I can just wheel it easy into my garage. I like the duel fuel option of either fuel or propane.
