New Westinghouse dual fuel generator.

Really liked the dual fuel (will usually run on Propane), remote electric start, and convenient hookups. Started right up after adding oil and gasoline. Will backup our solar system at our vacation home. Great price and warranty. Believe we will really use and like this unit. It is our third one and the best so far.

Great features

a compact unit and is really quiet and the remote start feature is great I can start it from inside and I got power in the house, I'm a 80 year old handicapped person so this is very helpful. Westinghouse paid great attention to details, Love it.. Good Job Westinghouse

Very nice stable speed, quick recovery and solid!

I have put about 20 hours on the genset and it purrs like a kitten. Great governor (for such an inexpensive generator set) and it's very quick to restabilize during swinging loads. The documentation for the unit is clear and concise, very well written (something sorely lacking with most merchandise these days!) I use this for my camper which has the 120VAC 30A circuit. Since the generator is 120VAC (not 120/240) it's a perfect fit. Runs the rooftoop AC unit, water heater, microwave and other basic plug-in style items with no problems whatsoever. When used with a circuit monitor/protector (one that monitors for 8-30 seconds before closing an internal breaker that connects the camper to shore power) the remote start/stop feature is extremely convenient! It ensures the generator does not try to start under load, saving the time and hassle of disconnecting this and that each time you want to start the generator. The shutdown sequence appears to be about 5 seconds, not 15 seconds. I would prefer it run for 30 but that's just my opinion. It's great that it has a delay at all. It would be a better value if they could include a propane quick connect feature instead of the typical threaded connection but this is a very minor setback. A primary voltage/current/hz monitor would be nice as well, even if it were available as an option. Overall I wish I'd have purchased this unit years ago. It's been a pleasure to have!

Dual Fuel and Easy to Operate

The unit arrived as indicated in the literature and was very easy to prep for operation. Add the inclosed wheel kit, add the oil, connect the battery and add your fuel source (LP was my choice). Hit the auto and start and the unit was running without incident. Would have given the unit a 5 star rating, however the unit did have a bent frame rail on the top (see attached photo) and a small bolt and two washer floating around in the large plastic cover that the unit came in. Have no idea as to where the extra hardware came from or should go.

Simple to setup and get going!

I bought this because I live in Texas and our illustrious governor and GOP lead legislature have done absolutely nothing of value when it comes to winterizing power plants and ensuring our electric grid doesn't fail (again). I wanted something I could store in our shed, so we could run space heaters and not freeze when the grid does inevitably fail (again). Anyway, this thing weighs about 100lbs so I can move it in/out of the shed easily and it came fully assembled and ready to rock & roll. Added the included oil, attached a BBQ propane tank, flipped the switch, pulled the rip cord, and LET THERE BE POWER. I hope I never need to use this, but I'm sure I will (see above) due to incompetence. I'll make sure to fire this thing up every 6 or so weeks, keep it ready, and be prepared.

Good Product

I've only had the generator for a short while, but so far it seems good. It started right up (after I filled it with oil and hooked it to a propane tank!) and it was reasonably quiet. The only thing that I don't like is that the indicator light, that lights when the main power button is turned on, stays on all the time. If you shut the unit off with the fob, it will drain the battery overnight which negates the usefulness of having a remote fob. Other than that, it appears to be a good, solid generator.

Simple set up.

I've never owned a generator and am not knowledgable of engines at all. But the manual was clear and the setup was easy. The only issue I had was the battery was connected to the terminals, but there was a plug that had to be attached . It took me a while to find it since it wasn't mentioned in the manual. But that was the only issue I had.

Westinghouse 3600 Generator

I purchased this generator primarily for use with my RV while camping. The generator has lived up to, and beyond, my expectations. From easy setup, to easy startup, to ease of use in general, I would highly recommend this generator. I look forward to using this generator for years to come

Generator for PG&E Blackout

I purchased the generator shortly after a recent PG&E power shutdown. I only had the generator a few days before the latest PG&E shutdowns, so I had not yet had an opportunity to test the generator. Long story short, the generator started right up with the remote and performed flawless for five days. I run propane on 30lb. tanks which lasted me 19 hours based on the load. Great generator.

WGen3600DF Daul Fuel remote start

I paid good money for the generator. Once I broke it out of the box to start it up. I charged the battery since it wouldn't start remotely. I figured it would have come charged. Next day tried to start it and nothing. I charged it for 5 days and still no remote start. I've sent 4 messages to the company and haven't heard from them yet. So no I wouldn't recommend a product where the company doesn't stand behind it.
