Worked Great - Easy Setup

Bought it after a storm to be ready the next time...ended up using it for some home improvement projects instead of dangerous runs of extension cords. Worked great out of the box, started quick the first pull, and even came with the tools to put it together.

The generator saved the day! ..and our basement.

We were without power for what seemed forever. Our sump pump couldn't run and our basement started to take on water. Friends loaned us their Westinghouse generator; it was so quick and easy to prep and power things, that we immediately purchased one of our own.

Saved The Day

We lost most of our home in a house fire but the generator allowed us to save the food we had in freezers for many days until our electricity could be restored. The generator is a real trooper. it was easy to put together and easy to start. We love how easy it is to move around.

Exactly what I needed

I was looking for a moderately priced dual fuel generator that I could hook up to our house electrical system. I needed a 4 wire 240 volt. This one is perfect! Easy assembly of wheels and rubber feet. Hooked up a propane tank and it started right up (after filling it with oil of course!). Not very loud either. All I need now is a power outage!

Easy to Operate

I carefully followed the instructions to set up the generator to operate on gasoline. The instructions are easy to follow and contained all I needed to know. It fired up right away and started producing electrical power after letting it run for a few minutes.

Dual Fuel

Bought this portable generator as a backup to my standby generator. I opted for the dual fuel to keep from having to deal with gasoline while exercising it. Tested both 120V and 240V under load and found it to be acceptable. Actual voltage was 122V and 244V with no load which matched the volt meter. Frequency was a 62.3 Hz and also matched the meter on the generator. Also, much quieter than my other backup generator which is 20 years old. So far so good.

Very convenient

I bought this dual fuel generator to replace an old gas gen that is far too heavy for me to lift into my truck to take to get repaired. Figured was better to just buy a new one than (never) get the old repaired. Love that it is dual fuel, just wish this model had a remote electric start. I also purchased a commercial grade 4-outlet extension cord that connects to the 240v output, since it’s really two 120v, that way I can put a high draw appliance or tool on each of the two 120v legs.

Our new Generator

Unfortunately our generator did seize up when starting it according to the directions given. We are working with the company to remedy this. Looking forward to it getting resolved. Appreciate the good customer service so far. Would recommend as it gets resolved.

Easy set up, powerful

I bought this last year in case of power outages. I am so glad i did. It was affordable, lightweight and easy to use. My power went out last night and within an hour of opening up the box we had it up and running to serve my refgrigerator, lights, fans, etc.
