Just unboxed, put oil in it, connected lp tank and pulled cord. Nothing happed. After several more attempts still no luck. It appears choke instructions are backwards. When I changed choke position it started on first pull. Very quite generator and runs very smoothly.

The only bad thing i have found so far is both of the blue covers (alternator and pull cord) definitely get beat up during packaging. the box looked perfect but both have some dents and paint chipping. other than that it's smaller than i expected and meets all of my requirements. if i have issues i'll update my review, but the setup was easy.

We have not use this generator yet but we will be ready when a hurricane comes. Saw this model and thought this is what we need for our house. It's always good to be ready then wishing if I only had bought it last year. Glad we did get it. Reading manual to set it us when needed.

Easy to set up and operate the first time, both fuel types. 4 star rating only because the unit was a tad louder than I had anticipated but very glad I made the purchase. This size of generator will be useful for a backup at home (a few items) and to take camping.

This generator was very easy to assemble the few required pieces such as the legs and wheels. The overall appearance of this model is very nice. It has sufficient outlets for most needs and applications. It can be configured for standard 110 voltage and two outlets for 220 volt applications either 3 or 4 plug. The choke settings are easy to read. The fuel settings are simple and easy to understand. The power switch is easy to use as well as the voltage selector for either 110 or 220 volts. It is a good medium duty generator in terms of the wattage and amperage produced 5300 watts and 30 amps. It is sufficient enough to power my whole house for the most essential items such as my furnace, refrigerator and some small appliances, the most important being my COFFEE MAKER and some lighting applications. I intentionally pushed the unit and the fuses operated properly. The carbon monoxide alert is a nice feature and functioned properly when I tested the generator in my garden shed. The folding design of the handle to move the unit is far superior to other designs. It has two mounts on both sides of the frame and the handle folds neatly down. The only minor downsides are the system display and adding oil. It would have been nice if the generator oil capacity was a full quart instead of approximately 75% of a quart. The funnel to add the oi is DEFINITELY needed. It could have been just a little longer by approximately two inches so a better bend could have been achieved to add the oil. The display would have been MUCH better if it included wattage and amperage being drawn. Overall though I give it 5 STARS.

I purchased this generator to supply power while replacing the service panel on my house. This required the electric company to disconnect power for this job as the house was built in the 70's and was not up to 2020 code (eg. No external cut-off to the main service panel). Of course we still needed electricity to perform work. It started up right away after addig the oil and gas. This generator performed wonderfully providing hours of power. Since we were only running a few things, fuel consumption was not high and we still had half a tank or more of fuel after probably 6 hours of service. The wheels are nice for moving it around. The only drawback is that the could be made longer so that your ankles don't continually hit the unit while pulling it. Otherwise, it is a great generator!!!

We purchased this in response to the wind storm that knocked out power in the Midwest in the March of 2023. It is heavy, but fired up on literally the first pull and allowed us to run a refrigerator, several lamps, and a space heater while powered with gasoline. Having the option to use a propane tank, in a pinch, is a definite plus. We topped out at around 3,500 watts and ran it all night without a hitch. The only drawback is the noise, which is significant, but a small concession to the level of performance and reliability. Easy setup and clear instructions. Highly recommended.

The generator works well it does the job for sure, weighs more than we expected and is louder than expected. There were several other confusing models that were almost identical but some had push start ours did not but overall it keeps up at last full 8 hours with gas running an AC

I've had this generator for over a year and have used it many times. It starts easily and ran all day on 1 tank. It saved our food on a 2 day power outage (ran lights and 2 refrigerators) and is now being used daily to run tools in an area that has no electricity. Highly recommend!

We have been looking for a generator for a while. We decided on the Westinghouse because it would work for our needs. This generator is easy to use. The noise level is about the same as an air compressor which makes us happy.we will recommend it to our family and friends.
