Great Value!

Very nice generator with flexibility on electrical connections. Wheeled unit makes a big difference for mobility. Dual fuel is a great feature! Easy set up, used propane, started up after a few pulls (propane needed to get in carb), and ran like a dream. Broke in as recommended in the manual. Have not used in storm yet. Looking forward to it. Very Very happy with purchase. .

Excellent Customer Service

The first generator I received had been damaged in transit. It must have been dropped as the frame was bent, which made the wheels rub the frame when installed. I was concerned there might be hidden motor damage as well, so I requested a replacement. This was completed and a replacement generator received within 10 days. The replacement is fine. I will begin the break In process this weekend. I noted a previous review that changed the oil multiple times until it was clean (no metal shavings) so I will do that. I also purchased gas stabilizer to extend the life of the gas in the generator and the gas tank up to two years.

Awesome Generator

I purchased this generator to replace my older generac 5500w unit. I plugged into our home with the direct 30amp 240v plug and it worked perfectly. It ran our furnace, well pump and refrigerator. I love the flexibility of gas and propane. I have only used it with propane / and it worked just great.

Great product

I bought a dual fuel generator a couple of weeks ago and I am glad that I did it. Very easy to assemble. Starts right up. The handle and wheels are very helpful. I had a chance to use it during our camping and I was impressed. It's less loud than my old generator!

So far so good

I havent tested it under a load yet, but my first concern of hard starting (since there is no electric start). was a non issue, it starts in 1 pull, and easily. Its not terribly loud either. I will update the review if anything changes. Had to write a review to get my free cover, so thats why I havent load-tested yet. tested on gas only.

Great Product

This is the first time that I have purchased a generator. I have done a lot of research and decided to go with the Westinghouse Dual fuel. I purchased it about a month ago and have not had the chance to use it. But I already love all the features and it really is well made. I will update review once I am able to use it.

Perfect backup for home!

After a 7-hour blackout on a 100-plus-degree day, watching my two-year-old daughter trying to sleep in a 90 degree bedroom I was done. Bought this generator the next day and it's just what we needed. Obviously can't run the entire house, but will get us by through a California Central Valley summer I'm sure will bring us regular blackouts. Easy to operate and the dual fuel option, and multiple 120V outlets made this a no-brainer for the price

Easy set up. Has been dependable thruout emergency

Tree limb took out power line. Power company required complete upgrade to outside box. The product was easy to set up. It has been dependably running for the last two weeks during this emergency. We have been able to run almost everything off this one power source. It was a great buy.

So far, so good

I have assembled and prepped, but have not used yet. Mostly assembled but did assemble stand feet and wheels, as well as add oil. Parts were very sturdy and easy to assemble. I used synthetic oil (5w-30) that instructions recommend, instead of what came with it. All-in-all, seems very well-built and sturdy. I'll update after use.
