Easy to use

I use this to power my whole house. I am a 60 yr old female and this was so easy for me to use. Starts right up with the push start. The big wheels and the handle design on it makes it very easy to move around. It's a little bit heavy, but I managed just fine with it. Glad I bought this generator.

Great features, excellent gas capacity and run tim

I ordered this during the last ice storm in North Carolina. The one I was using had issues during that storm. I have this one set up and ready for the next storm. The only negative I found was the instructions did not instruct me to hook the wires from the hot battery cable. I called the help line and after directions from the help line, proceeded with no additional issues. It started right away with the manual start.

Great Generator Great Price

This generator is heavy duty and very professional looking. Generator was very simple to assemble. Added Oil and gas according to information in manual. Read through information in manual, pressed start button one time started right up. Let it run for 10 minutes and shut down. I will update in future reviews as Hurricane Elsa Is approaching soon.

Peace of Mind!

We bought this after going 12 days without power in our home following an ice storm in October 2020. We have such peace of mind now, knowing that we won't go through that again! We love the ease of storage, and the capability this generator has. We'll never be in that position again!

Great features and dependability

I bought this generator a month ago in preparation for the hurricane season. It arrived in perfect condition. The setup, startup and break-in was very easy and started right up. I bought this to power my whole house and it has all the power to do that. The machine is very easy to move around even though it weighs over 200 lbs. I start it every month to keep it ready and it starts on the very first push of the button. I couldn't be happier and recommend this generator to everybody, you won't be disappointed.

great features and easy to set up and get started

It's hurricane season in Fla and I needed to replace my old generator. This Westinghouse generator was just what I was looking for with the right balance of power and easy-to-use features. Once I unboxed it, putting the wheels on and the other supports was a snap. Took five minutes and once I filled it up with oil and gas, it started up perfectly the first time. This generator is easy for one person to wheel around and provides enough juice to power the important things I need powered should a major storm blow through and knock out the power grid.

So far so good

Bought this to replace a 4400 watt (really 3500 watt) generator that couuldn't do the job during an ice storm. Love the fact that this generator is rated at running watts and not surge watts! Also like the fact that it comes with a battery maintainer so I don't have to worry about the batteries.

Outstanding Quality

This model generator exemplifies excellent craftmanship, it will power everything in my house including the AC! It purrs quietly compared to most other brands and the remote key fob is a great feature! The 3 year warranty beats the 3 month or 1 year warranty other brands offer. Highly recommended.

Great Product

I purchased this machine a month ago to power my welders and plasma cutter. I started on a fence project the day I received it and noticed right off that bat that it does not skip a beat nor does it have any issues that other generators had. Great Product I highly recommend it and you can not beat the price.

Arrived in perfect condition. Good instructions.

I reviewed many different generators and felt this would be one on the best. After using it I am very happy with my purchase. Runs great and functions as advertised. Would highly recommend this generator to someone looking to purchase such a product.
