Easy to set up and use!

Very happy with this generator's size, capacity, and variety of plugs. I was hoping to be able to run a 240 line at the same time as a 120 line, but I guess this is not possible? That is the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

GREAT GENERATOR

I BOUGHT THIS IN OCTOBER AND IT RUNS LIKE A GEM. I CREATED AN OUTDOOR BREAKER FOR THIS TO SUPPLY POWER TO MY HOME IN CASE OF EMERGENCY. THE TEST RUN WORKED GREAT.

Great features, minor damage upon arrival

Bought this for hurricane prep. Haven’t been able to use it yet, thankfully. Alternator cover dented pretty heavily, will contact Westinghouse CUstomer service soon. I can’t imagine it significantly affecting operation.

Powerful compact size.

Our son in-law bought this for us, as well as 2 others for other family members after a recent hurricane caused wide area power loss for days. This was easy to operate and sized for easy storage.

Generator

I think it will perform well for the task it was purchased for. No dents found. Only problem was the governor spring was not hooked up, so during break in it looped. It did start easily. Haven't used it. Purchased it for power outages.

Duel Fuel

I am happy I purchased this generator. It has a wonderful feature of duel duel: Propane and Gasoline. Great features for the price compared to others similar.

Wonderful value

Just purchased this generator and was easy to set up and get up and running. Great features with display for voltage, hertz, runtime and will give maintenance reminders. Very solid and well built.

So far, so good.

I have put 5hrs. of run time with both gasoline and propane. No problems, with the slight exception, that when you start it with propane, you must put the choke on to open the diaphram to flow propane to the carburator.

Backup power

I bought this generator because we were having a scheduled power outage from Consumers and it went longer than it was supposed to approximately eighth hours and this product worked great right out of the box had no problem

Great value and well built

I've used this generator for about 50 hours now and can say it has been a pleasure to use. Starts on first pull 95% of the time and doesn't suck down very much fuel. I've yet to test the propane fuel but on gasoline it works great.
