The unit arrived at my door via FedEx. Like some other reviews, upon unboxing found the alternator end cap to be badly dented. Listening for noise while slowly pulling starter, then checking under the cap for any shorts or other damage all was good. Believe the damage occurred prior to being boxed as there was no damage to any of the shipping materials. Filled crankcase with the supplied oil and added recommended gasoline. Turned on fuel supply valve then let sit for a minute to prime the carburetor bowl and check for leaks, all good. Switched on engine control switch and set choke. One slow pull to find TDC, then a solid pull and the unit quickly came to life. Ran unloaded for the recommended one hour break in. At first the frequency regulation was marginal but now seems very good after the break in period. At present have run up to about half load with no issues. Good voltage regulation, no momentary glitches. Noise level is acceptable, not the absolute quietest but definitely much better than some others I have used. All in all believe this generator will work well for my emergency power needs. Will try to add to this review when I get a chance to really slam it!

I bought this generator to replace an old one I have. During the recent hurricane Helene it ran 24 hrs a day for 6 days while we were without power kept the lights on water running fridge cold and tv playing with the latest information on storm damage could not be happier with this product kept us from being in the dark

With the rolling blackouts, this is a great safety purchase for the house. Plenty of wattage, comes with wheels, well built/sturdy, and clear instructions on the maintenance. Very easy to use, built to last with regular maintenance. Love the thoughtful functional design and utility. Generator comes in clutch.

After the 2021 snowstorm, I decided to get better prepared for the future blackouts. I've installed a disconnect and an exterior 240V outlet that let me inject the power into the main panel after I disconnect the main breaker and isolate the whole house from city's utilities. A smooth run requires quasi-balanced loads on L1 and L2. The oil inlet could be better designed for easier access, but it is what it is.

We just bought it, it was recommended to us by a family member. We chose this one because of electric starting. Wanted duel fuel but it did not come with all 3. Our neighbor was asking about it and told him where we got it. Putting wheels on today. We feel this will work for our needs. Fridge, fan, tv, phone.

The generator’s frame feels solid and attaching the wheel kit legs were easy. The only complaint is Westinghouse needs to be address packaging to prevent damage during shipping. As expected from previous reviews, the generator head’s vented cover was dented during shipping.

I received this Generator 2 days after ordering it. It was packed extremely well for shipping. The only things that needed done after it was unpacked was put on the wheels, add oil, plug in the battery and fill the gas tank. After that it fired right up. i would recommend this generator. it is a high quality product.

Good value and light weight. It will not do 120 volt and 240 volt at the same time. Selecting 240 volt to use the twist lock plug turns off the 120 volt plugs You must be very careful moving as the handle does not lock and it will get away from you and land on the generator end. I think this may lead to a safety recall in the future. It happen to me the second time I moved it. Overall I really like generator.

I bought one 1/23 quick working went through a horrible time trying to get fixed. They keep from 7/10/23 till I continued to call until around 11/14/23. They finally decided to give me new one. The shop Westinghouse told me to take to said their generators are a piece of crap.

I bought this generator a while back as part of a project to wire my house for electricity in the event of a power outage. I am pleased to say that (with the help of my electrician friend) this generator will allow me to power my entire house, including refrigerator, ductless air conditioner, furnace, and lighting. It has plenty of power and a high capacity gas tank so run time between refueling is a good number of hours. I am quite sure I won't be left in the dark in the event of an outage. It is quite well constructed should be useful for many years.
