Working good so far

We were moving out onto a peice of land we bough so we bough this to use as power till we get electric. We bought 4 months ago and it has saved us, it did everything we needed. We are having a little bit of a hard time finding replacement parts. We love it, it works good, wouldn't have been able to be out here without it.

Runs my well pump

I bought this yesterday to upgrade from a smaller generator. My house is on a transfer switch and my old generator didn't have enough power to run the well pump, so in an outage we had no water. This runs pretty much the whole house (3 refrigerators, laundry, ground floor and basement) except HVAC (only because HVAC isn't on the transfer switch). Best investment in a while. Definitely more comfortable going into NC storm season.

Not much time with it yet

Given the issues in the world today, along with the old electric company wiring in the area, I thought a generator was a good idea. While I have not run it under anything but break-in time conditions, it seemed to handle the hairdryer and space heater without issue. I am looking forward to not worrying about power outages. I am happy to update once I have used it under the conditions for which it was purchased.

Great Features Dual Fuel

I Just bought this to replace an existing generator that was many years old and worked flawlessly through several hurricanes. It even supported my neighbors. I expect continued excellence from this Westinghouse generator. It has all the features I require including a propane capability.

Solid Start

Easy setup, readable manual for someone who is new to the game. Break-in period going well on LP, then I’ll change out oil to synthetic. Good size, feels solid, great price for a dual-fuel; for the rarity I’ll be running it, the right combo of cost, noise, power, LP function.

Solid Generator

This generator serves as our backup for selected refrigerator, chest freezer, window A/C unit, and receptacles which serve our bedroom, living room, and microwave. it's best features are the dual fuel capability and 240 or 120 Volt output. By having a propane input, we can store a few tanks indefinitely without worry of it spoiling over time as gasoline does. I recommend buying a rain cover that is rated for use during generator operation since you will most likely use it during periods of bad weather.

Good Generator for the price

I've used this once during a power outage so far. It is powerful enough to run what I need it too during an outage and I like the duel fuel feature so I can run it off of a 100lbs propane tank. Very nice little generator for the price. Can certainly tell when my well pump kicks on, bogs it down momentarily with the high surge watts needed to power the pump.

Worked wonderfully!

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!!!

Good power at a great price

We bought this generator to help in case of power outages during storms, and as a backup power source for our RV. It was really simple to put into operation, and started right up in both gas and propane. The included toolkit kept me from digging through my toolbox, and it even includes a funnel to help pour the oil. Literally everything you need to start except the actual fuel. Haven’t used on our RV yet, but tested it on our household power items (heater, fridge, etc…) and it works great. Not as quiet as an inverter generator, but no louder than a lawnmower.

Great Generatot

An winter ice storm threat and possible power outages made me run out and buy this generator (based on other reviews). I got it home, unboxed it, put on the wheels, poured in the oil and a couple gallons of gas and it fired right up (and I'm 70 years old so if I can handle this generator a younger guy should have no problems). I plugged in a refrigerator and a couple lamps and everything worked fine. I'm ready for the ice storm.
