Haven't had the need to rely on this yet, but I have used it to ensure it works and it works well. Smooth start, even after not starting for 6 months, started after a few pulls. Easy start instructions are listed directly on the frame, which is great for a quick reference.

Bought this for a back up generator for my house. When I took it out the box I was pleasantly surprised by all the features, build quality, and having all that I needed; tools for the assembly, engine oil, and even a screw-in oil funnel, to get the unit prepped and started. The unit started easily and ran effortlessly during its maiden test run. Think this is a well built generator, that I can rely and count on, when and if the power goes out.

Generator came well packaged. No dents, dings or scratches anywhere on it. Wheels were simple to install. Filled with oil and gas and it fired right up. Normal fumes as with anything for the first little bit of running, paint burning off of areas that shouldn't have paint. All very normal. Ran it through the 1 hr break in and then 5 hours of various loads as directions dictated, Just went though a ice storm with a smaller one, actually looking forward to the next outage to see how it performs powering house though generator cut over switch. All and all extremely pleased with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for this size of generator.

Just received the generator. Looks solid, manual is easy to understand, and the generator started up first pull. The volt meter showed 122.5 volts light load and down to 118.5 volts under heavy load (about 25 amps). This is going to work great for me. The propane regulator wasn't in the box, so I still need to call on that.

I have been shopping for a generator for a couple years. Westinghouse was one that appeared frequently in my searches. I did some research and decided to buy one. It is made with such quality features as well as a quality generator overall. The engine and design exceeded my expectations. The price was quit inexpensive for a generator, it is well worth it. I highly recommend it to anyone. It won't disappoint!

I ordered a generator and it was supposed to come in may 5 but it arrived 4 days earlier! When I was looking at the instructions it was easy to read. It also comes with very informational Guides that tell you all about the generator and how to maintain it. Overall very happy with my purchase!

I bought this item to replace an old generator, and the starter makes all the difference in immediate operation, especially in an emergency. Called customer service to answer questions regarding a home transfer switch, and they were very knowledgeable and recommended safe practices for home use. Outstanding! Thank you!

Purchased this unit to replace an older pull start unit due to MY AGE. Prompt delivery, very easy assembly, started on first try. Changed initial start up sequence - after filling with oil, attempted to start with no fuel to lubricate top end with oil. Glad I did, since unit started on FIRST attempt and loaded

I bought this about a month ago to be my primary power source dur power outages. My previous generator is a pull start and stand out in the cold pulling and pulling and pulling has just gotten old. Completing the generator build was quite simple and kudos for the funnel that screws into the oil fill, however, if it were a couple of inches longer over pours could be eliminated. Thee reason for the lose of one star is because the quick connect wiring is backward from what is needed for a battery tender connect, necessitating the need to install a seperate quick connect for that purpose. I turned off all the power to my house and then connected the generator, running the house on generator power for about 45 minutes with no issues. The true test will be when I'm hooking it up in an ice sstorm.

Just purchased for a back-up generator for my home. Easy to assemble the wheels. Cranked on the first try. Electric start is great. Also verified that the pull start would work as a back-up method. Power output is consistent and verified with a voltage meter. Have run it a couple of times to break it in according to the instructions. Seems to be a good unit and was a value for the price.
