Great Generator !

Just received the generator and unboxed it. The start up instructions were easy to follow. The generator started up the very first time! I like the electronic start, remote feature, and the plug in battery charger is handy! I feel that the generator is a very good value, and is well made .

Great features!

I only recently bought this due to a power outage that lasted over 2 days. So I haven’t used it yet other than to start it up. I am extremely happy with the push button start/remote starter and how easy it is to maneuver it around. Westinghouse is a name brand I recognize,so hopefully this will last me a long time.

Generator

Bought this for the pending power outages from the riots. Unboxed, filled oil and gas and attempted to start. Took a LONG time to start, I guess working gas thru the system. Never owned a generator before. Its loud but not nearly as loud as I expected. Like a push behind lawn mower.

Great Generator!

I bought this generator for backup power when the local power grid goes down, which it frequently does during bad weather. So glad I did! It basically powers our whole house! Everything from the well pump to the fridge, even the hot water heater! I love the 6.6 gallon tank, it means I can fill it before bed and sleep knowing it will still be running in the morning. The remote start is also nice in cold weather, I can start it from the window and it will be already warmed up and ready by the time I go out to hook it up. I would definitely recommend this generator.

Backup Generators

I bought this generator after a lengthy power outage and I look forward to testing it out during the next outage. Delivery was prompt, it was very easy to set up and get running. For the rated power capacity, it's quiet and seems like it will meet my needs well.

Fantastic Generator

Opened box and put the 2 wheels and 2 legs on with the supplied tools, added oil/fuel and connected the battery. Followed the starting instructions label on the generator and was running within 10 minutes of opening box. So simple. Hooked up my RV to the 50amp outlet and turned on the A/C, TV, Microwave and the unit didn't flinch at all. Such a great Generator, would recommend for sure. Love the fob to start and stop from inside the RV

Easy to Set Up, Starts Right Up, Plenty of Power

I have been trying to get this generator for about a year. Its always sold out everywhere because its so awesome! I finally had a chance to get it even with 3 weeks out shipping but i couldnt pass it up! So worth the wait! Started right up and having the key fob is perfect so my children can start the generator before school when I'm not around, without even having to go outside. I love this generator, such a good value and no other brand has the numbers of reviews and POSITIVE 4.5+ stars. So glad I finally got this, now I'm not nervous about the next power outage, I'm more then ready!

Cadillac of a Generator

We bought this even though we haven't had a generator for a few years, but the weather is so crazy anymore that we felt like a new one was a good idea. The price point was really good for all the features including electric remote start and it appears to be very well built. Even though we don't want the power to go out we are ready to see this thing perform.

Well Engineered and Rugged

I bought this on September 12, 2018 but due to illness I left in box sealed. Started it up last month and she runs like a top. I worked for Westinghouse back in the late 60's as a nuclear project engineer on the polaris nuclear submarine program and I have always been very proud of Westinghouse products and their performance.

A Great Source of Power

Georgia Power frequently experiences electric interrupts, especially during even minor rain events. The generator with transfer switch has kept our commercial freezers and home lighting working automatically when the power goes down. Starts instantaneously and turns itself off when the power comes back. A great addition to our home.
