I looked at several big box stores, and compared prices among several brands. For wattage vs cost, this generator was the best value. Assembly was very easy. The necessary basic tools are included, and the wheels attach with cotter pins. Assembly took maybe 5 minutes. Oil comes drained and will need to be filled with the included oil bottle. The generator fired up on the first pull. Idled just fine for a few minutes. I only tried using a 1/2" impact wrench to remove/install a trailer tire, although it was purchased for hurricane preparation. Whenever I pressed the trigger on the impact wrench, the engine would very briefly hiccup but ran fine overall, and otherwise had no electrical or engine issues. I assume that's normal when applying an electrical load. It's certainly not quiet, but I would guess that most aren't. It's my first generator, and at this time I have no regrets. As long as it keeps doing what it's doing, you can't really beat the price, and the 3-year warranty seems fair.

I bought this two weeks ago and so far, I'm very pleased with how clear and concise the directions were for installing the wheels and that the tools required were included in the packaging. Although I am not looking forward to another weather event like Beryl, I do feel certain that I will be able to have electricity in my home should we lose power again.

Still in the break in hours but so far so good. Looks good and not super heavy. I like that it has the drop down handle for moving it easier. Specifically purchased this one for the dual fuel feature and it goes between easily with the flip of a switch. And fits right on the front of my pop-up camper trailer with ease

I purchased in April this year, had power outages so I hooked it up read all directions it’s duel fuel so it works great it took nothing to hook everything up again read directions; only have a few things plugged in but very nice generator very very happy with it!!!!! Excited to a purchased this brand & again love the duel fuel !!!

I recently purchased this generator. Very minimal and easy assembly. After putting the oil in it fired right up on propane, three pulls for first start. I'm surprised by how quiet it is! Connected it to my house and it powered my house perfectly! We'll see about longevity but out of the box its great! Wish it had electric start but I see that as a convenience. Great generator!

I tried to test the generator using propane, but it would not start. It tried, but backfired and would never start. I had my tank refilled, but I still had the same issue, so I switched to gasoline. I got a backfire again, but then it started. It did not run as smooth as I expected, but I did not have any load on it. Not sure if this is normal or not.

The layout of the controls are easy accessible and instructions on operation and set up are easy to follow.I have only done a general start up to check out my generator for initial operation, started up first pull ran smoothly and isn’t very loud. I have not tested under load yet. I’m empress at this time.

I bought this a few days ago. The only two things I can see that I don't like are, I don't know why it can't be shipped with the wheels and feet already installed. Secondly, the funnel provided to put the oil in is too short and a second funnel will have to be used to keep from spilling oil.

I bought this to use to power a few things in our home during a power outage. Really liked that it is dual fuel as I keep propane on hand. It came pretty well packed and in great condition. The 240 VAC output is one major selling point for me, so I can attached it to the house panel. Tried to run the unit on gasoline and then propane. Both worked well and the unit started on the 4th pull. I also really like that the handle and wheels were included, as they are extra on a lot of units this size. The only downsides I have so far is that the pull rope spring seems a bit weak. After I pulled to start the motor, I had to quickly let the rope go back into the motor or else I ended up with a lot of rope hanging out of the starter assembly. The other was that it was hard to change the display. I had to use a pencil to push the button in far enough to make contact and change the display. Minor issues to me as the unit performed well and ran pretty quietly too. I cannot beat the 3 year warranty too. Many units by other companies come with only 1 year. Lastly the price was a definite factor as I saved a lot of money.

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.
