Last February when Texas’ power grid went down we went 4 days without power. Freak winter storms, hurricane, rolling blacks, zombie apocalypse… whatever, this generator give us what we need to the lights on. I like the dual fuel capacity. In a crisis, gasoline could get scarce so having a propane back up is cool. This unit is large enough to run just about everything in the house minus the HVAC. The plan is to integrate it into our homes system with a transfer switch so it’s seamless. Since the generator is only for emergencies it should last a long time with regular upkeep.

This is the one I have been looking for. No electric starter is not a big deal since I still can pull once or twice to start it easily. Used mainly for my rv 15k ac when we Boondocks. Also good wattage for house hold power outages. Glad Sam’s club still make this item so affordable. Used on propane mainly for easy cleaning and lower noise. Just don’t want to add gas during the usage with hot engine. So propane will be my priority fuel for now. Start my RV ac right away. No soft starter needed. This one is not inverter type so you have to expect louder noises but still reasonable range. Nothing is perfect but this one is making it closer. Trusted brand of Westinghouse over couple decades and great customer service backup will give you a piece of mind. Your research could be ended if you want to have a easier way to make generator work for you no matter in what kind of situation.

Bought this generator to have for household backup. I knew I wanted the dual fuel option and looked at several brands. I had previously purchased a Westinghouse pressure washer, which I have found to be very reliable, so I opted for the brand I knew I could trust. With the dual fuel option, a 240v plug, and 5300 running watts, this is a good package for the price. Only drawback, I could find with it so far is the wheels are just plastic with no bearings in them, no big thing.

Received this generator as a Christmas gift and love it. It is very compact and easy to move with the wheels and has a nice look to it. It was very easy to start and it will definitely come in handy when needed during power outages, which we have had a lot of in recent years.

It was pretty funny cause it wasn’t starting and wasn’t starting and then we finally found the fuel switch and once it got turned on BOOM!! It cranked right over. It lowers the trailer good. We haven’t used it as a back up for our house yet but I’m sure it’ll run the basics for that just fine.

I bought this in a hurry to save our frozen food after Zeta last year. Easy to set up and start. It ran two refrigerators via 12 gauge extensions and didn’t seem to break a sweat! If we get a storm this year I am ready. The price was reasonable and the size is manageable.

current runs a 100 gallon reef tank, 1000 gallon goldfish pond, 2 fridges, water heater, 9000 btu mini split, a small window unit, water heater and all my lights. And i can also use one other major appliance one at a time. ie dryer oven stove etc. everything but my 5 ton ac unit which would require closer to 16kw. Love the dual fuel option. I can run forever off a 30lb propane tank and not worry bout gunking up the carbeurator for next year. Run gas just when i need the extra 500 watts when trying to cook and clean clothes etc, otherwise propane is great. live in southeast tx with high humidity and hurricanes 2 of which hit near me. power was out for 5 days both times. generator ran solid. Only wish it had electric start for the wife, but its not too bad pull starting. usually within 2 pulls. removed the bonded jumper between ground and neutral like its says too in manual if supplying your breaker box. Meters shows 237 volts most of the time at 57-63 htz. I did not try to run computers or tvs on this one. Thinking of getting a small inverter genny at a later date for those items. Phone chargers and laptop chargers worked just fine though. Sure tvs would of been fine but did not take the chance.

I purchased this generator in a clutch after I was devastated by the tornado recently. The ability to use both propane and gasoline was more helpful than I could’ve ever imagined, especially after so many gas stations were out of gas or just didn’t have the power to run the pumps. this generator ran all of my essentials and then some, keeping me and my family as comfortable as possible, given the circumstances. it was easy to install and easy to use, not to mention that it was Affordable. I was excited that it came with the initial oil, funnel and tools. to avoid purchasing anything extra and the super simple manuals and maintenance requirements that were put in layman‘s terms and very simple to understand was appreciated. a small compact design that I will have no problem storing. I feel ecstatic to own one even if it only came after devastation. It’s going to very good use, and I can think of 1000 ways in which after the storm I could continue to use this generator.

Purchased about 2 months ago & have only used it 1 time, so my review is somewhat limited. Assembly was smooth except one hole for the wheel axle wasn't large enough. Had to drill it out slightly to fit. Runs smooth & am comforted knowing it will run on dual fuel. Like the number of options it has for outlets. I have purchased brand new gas powered items before & knew to add the engine oil before starting it, but felt like the assembly instructions SHOULD HAVE more clearly mentioned this for novice buyers. Also, instead of having to read through all 28 pages of the manual, include a "Quick Start" guide.

I purchased this generator last week and I am extremely happy. It runs on both Propane and Gasoline but Gasoline is more energy efficient. For 4.7 gallons of Gasoline the runtime was 14 hrs for 1 refrigerator, 2 laptops, 3 phone chargers, 3 lights. For 15 pounds of Propane the runtime was 8 hrs for 1 refrigerator, 2 laptops, 3 phone chargers, 3 lights.
