Just what I was looking for.

The 1st generator send out was damaged in shipping. I contacted Westinghouse and it was fairly easy get it all together to return. The day the shipping company picked up the damaged one the new one shipped. It did take a little while for the replacement to get to me due to bad weather delay. The new one fired right up and is just what I needed.

Started right up with one pull!

Generator arrived a couple weeks longer than anticipated, but not surprising since it was ordered in December. Out of the box, there were a couple dents but nothing that should affect its operation. Assembled, added fluids, and it started right up on first pull. So far, very pleased.

Worked perfect

I bought last year wthout needing it at the time. I had just purchased my own home and decided it was a good investment. Well fast forward to this year and we just had a storm. I lost power in the house but used the generator and had ac and lights and was able to use the water. I was super impressed with how quiet it was.

Finally got it right

First try generator arrived with a dented exhaust cover. Returned. Second try generator arrived in great shape but didn't run properly. Third time is a charm. Generator arrived in excellent shape. Put together easily and started on the first pull. Ran it for two and a half hours, ran great. Put it under a mild load. Ran great.

Looks Great With all the bells and whistles

I bought this generator after my 22 year old generator finally died. I cannot believe how upgraded generators have become with all their nice features. I haven't had a chance to use it yet but from what I've read in the users manual it will suit my needs to run my household in a power outage. Thank you

Excellent features!

I bought this a month ago and am finally got a friend to help me set it up. It is very sturdy and easy to put together, but too heavy for a female. It is easy to start and has the features I need. I am having an electric company install a switch so it will be easter to run the appliances I need during a power outage.

Nice and quiet

I've been running the generator just to make sure it will work during a hurricane and it seems to run very well. I put a load on it and it ran like a champ. I really enjoy the push start, and I was very surprised how quiet it is compared to our older one.

Compact generator with many features

I have had a generator for many years, but it was large and always hard to start. I bought this Westinghouse model mainly because of the electric start feature. This works very well. I was surprised happily that it was more compact, lighter, and had CO sensor.

easy, peasy, lemon squezzy

this generator just arrived, put the front rests and wheels on in just five minutes, filled with the oil that came with, put gas in and started the very first pull. it says to run without load for 1 hour to break in engine, doing that now. no damage upon arrival. from box to running in about 15 or 20 minutes. will try putting a load on it shortly, but if it starts easy, the battle is won!

Easy set up

Bought this on Thursday, received on a Sunday. I opened the box, but was surprised that there was no manual of any sort, just an arrangement of parts, oil, and the necessary tools to assemble the wheels and feet. Anyone without intuitive assembly sense would have an issue figuring out how to properly assemble the unit, though I believe it would still function without the feet/wheels. Had to look up manual to see what the oil and fuel requirements are, as well as warranty information.
