Lots of Power

I purchased this product because I needed to power up to three sump pumps simultaneously in case of a power outage. I have been pleased with the product thus far. Its operation is simple; it seems like it will be easy to perform regular maintenance, has a lot of output, and is versatile with three different outlets. I like that it is dual fuel, so I don't have to mess with draining gas every time and can just disconnect the propane tank. Recommend this product.

Great price and easy to use!

I got this as a backup for increasingly frequent power outages. If you follow the instruction manual closely you'll be up and running pretty quickly. This is my first portable generator and I'm very pleased at how easy it is to start and use. I plugged a few different things of various loads and it was able to handle them with no issues. If you're not familiar with generators, definitely take the time to read the manual--you'll be glad you did. :)

Did the job!

I bought it the week before Hurricane Beryl came through in Houston. Just in time! Easy instructions and start-up. Hooked up a propane tank and filled it with gasoline. When i was half empty on gasoline, I switched to propane. Smooth transition, good power, no problems. Kept my fridge and freezer running, and used to power cell phone and fan. Best decision I made!

Nice output / dual fuel

Purchased this product for peace of mind. I didn't remove it from its box for a couple months and just recently assembled and tested it out (on propane only so far). The good: It ran smoothly and wasn't too loud for a non-inverter generator. I ran an electric space heater (1500W) and no problems, as it should be since the generator is rated 4800W on propane. The bad: It took 8-10 good pulls to get it started -- not a deal breaker, and possibly a first-time startup thing, but it did take more pulls than I had anticipated. (I'm no stranger to pull-starts). What is more alarming is that at this time, 12 days after unpacking, the frame is showing signs of rust and either the powder coating is flaking off, or it was never completely powder coated that well to begin with, leaving exposed steel that is now in very early stages of corrosion. I've kept the unit in a shed (covered on all sides), this is a little disappointing.

Works Great!

We bought this today. Easy and clear directions. We ran it for 4 hours. No issues! Works great with our Coleman Light 22ft. camper. All appliances and air conditioning was on and running. Can’t wait to go camping! It’s dark now. so my pics didn’t turn out good.

Residential Home Builder

Using this to build houses. Easy pull start and intuitive controls. Enough power to run multiple high draw power tools with no problems. I'm running off gasoline but nice to have dual fuel if needed. Also planning to use as personal generator for home if needed in case of hurricane.

Easy to set up, got running quick

Bought this generator a few weeks ago. Happy with it so far. Only ran about 15 minutes so far on propane and it seems to be running well. The manual for starting was a bit confusing with what it says to do with the choke on a cold start but I figured it out.

Very Good Generator

I am very pleased with this Generator. This is the 3rd generator I had to buy this week, (the other 2 were a different brand). After the oil that was included was added, I started up on the first try. I ran it without any load for the first hour to break it in. Put a load on it and works as advertised. Very pleased! I will be buying Westinghouse from now on!

Very thoughtful

provides all tools needed., full assembled save the wheels and bumpers. assembly takes less than five mins. includes oil. The carb comes with a drain, and instructions tell you to drain for long interval storage, this is very good advice, that if followed, would lead to very reliable carbureted engines.

Great price!

I just bought this a week ago so I haven't had to use it yet. I bought it for emergency purposes since the power failures of last February. I bought the duel fuel because it's possible to store propane for long periods of time whereas gasoline has a limited "shelf life."
