Works great. Plenty of POWER! Awesome after storms

It has performed very well the past 3 times I have relied on it. Starting is very easy and effortless, with remote start or push button. During an outage, I can pretty much run everything, TV, lights, freezer, fridge, and even cooked dinner on my electric stove and it didn't bog down. My only critique is, it is a bit loud, however I have it hooked up in my barn well away from the house so it works out well.

Glad I purchased this Westinghouse generator. It's all about having an ease of mind if/when there's a power outage. I'm still in the break in period but this unit seems to be a quality build. The directions are easy to follow and it has a nice manual and even a wiring schematic

Running Great

I have two of these and they run great, only issue I've foreseen is finding replacement spark plugs - the listed models that Westinghouse has on the manual are hard to find or are discontinued (and the manual specifically says to avoid plugs with resistance - which are all you can find) otherwise strong machine

Very happy with this generator

I bought this for emergency power and to power my RV. The remote start is a great feature and very easy to use. The documentation is well written and easy to follow and the setup was a breeze. Generator does everything I need it to do. Highly recommend!

easy to use

I bought this about a month ago. And all though I've only tested so far it not only handled the A/C but I flipped the hot water heated and it took on like it was nothing. I wouldn't suggest running the two together but it was great to see it could handle the load. I'm waiting for the power to go out to give it a real test.

Sweet Gen set

Arrived undamaged. I have ran this for about 5hrs now with no issues. The remote start works from inside the house. I have installed a Trans pro 2 50amp in the basement with 10 Breakers to power 10 circuits. The advantage to portable for me is I can load it up and use it anywhere I need. I also purchased the Gentent so I wouldn't need to worry about running it in any type of weather. I will attach pictures on an updated review.

Overall Great generator and amazing details.

I bought this to be ready for anything. All the storms lately had been taking our power away. So we wanted to be prepared, especially to save our refrigerator. This machine did not disappoint. Its easy to roll around with the wheels and large handle. Love how easy it is to use.

Excellent Features/Power

As a 78 year old, love the remote start option - main reason for purchase. Also had electrician hook up an outside box to plug into electrical panel, eliminating cords and plug all over house. All just in time for hurricane season and the excellent power of this generator will operate all essential electrical needs.

Great looking generator

I bought this generator for up at the lake. We own a mobile home that plugs into the power grid using a 50 amp plug. So when we lose power we can just pull the plug from the local power and plug it into the generator. I plan to buy a larger unit for home use.

Little Mighty Power House

This generator is an absolute beast! We use it to power our RV, and it hasn’t let us down once. It easily runs the air conditioning, two hot plates, all the lights, and ceiling fan without a hiccup. Despite its size, it delivers big-time performance. One of the most impressive features is the fuel efficiency. On a full tank of gas, we get around 11 hours of continuous use. Thee only downside is that it’s loud, which is expected for any traditional generator. It's easy to start, and feels really solid and well-built. Definitely a great investment for anyone needing reliable portable power. Highly recommend it!
