Runs great and I love the remote start!

I just received the product and although it looked like it had been handled roughly, the item was packaged very well and sustained no damage. The instructions were very easy to read and implement. Generator started right up and ran beautifully. I will be putting it through the paces this weekend in the hot Texas weather.

Fired Right Up and Runs Strong

Just bought this generator. It fired right up the first time I pulled the cord, even though it was very cold outside. Then we used it to run a large sander and the power never faded in and out like with some generators. Very powerful and so far reliable!

great value compared to other models

i studied options on the market very carefully and felt this was the best back-up generator for my cabin in the Ozarks. it can run my submersible pump and freezer, as well as powering plenty of outlets to get through frequent grid power outages. I was VERY interested in it running on propane to avoid old gas issues. finally, the instructions were clear and complete-easy to follow.

Excellent all purpose Generator!

Bought this Generator for the dual purpose of running power tools on jobsites during home renovations (Home flipping) as well as a whole house backup. So far I am very impressed with the power output, simplicity of design and thoroughness of the packaging. Everything other than fuel is included in the package for assembly and operation including oil, funnel, wrenches, detailed instructions along with a maintenance schedule. I'm able to now run everything from my Graco Paint sprayer on down to home necessities when our wacky South Carolina weather throws us a curve ball in winter. Highly recommend!

Wanted great tri-power portable generator

I purchased this generator to power our home in an emergency. I have a 50 Amp connector and a natural gas quick connect on our home. I was very impressed with the generator. It was very easy to set up. 1. Unbox the unit 2. Install legs on the front 3. Install wheels on the rear 4. Fill with the included 10W30 oil 5. Take outside in the open air 6. Connect the 12 volt battery 7. Fill with gasoline 8. Switch the starting source th gasoline 9. Open the gasoline valve to allow fuel to the engine 10. Then push the key fob for 2 seconds and it started the first time To stop it: 1. Push the stop button on the key fob then let it stop automatically 2. Turn off the gasoline valve 3. Turn the fuel selector to off I am extremely impressed with the build quality and simplicity of the generator. It also has a multi-purpose gauge which is very useful.

Great Generator! Great Value for the money!

This generator is chock full of features-including a trickle charger, ability to run on propane or gasoline, has 30 and 50 amp outlets, auto chock, remote start and more. Plus, in my opinion, it is much quieter than my previous portable generator. My electrician installed an manual interlock system and we tested it out. Started my central air-28,500 BTUs with now problem. Also, started and ran my 50 gal. water heater with AC running-though he didn't recommend doing that due to energy usage concerns. He was very impressed with this generator's handling as we put it thru it's "paces" in turning breakers on and off. I hope I don't have to use it for a power outage, but I'm in Florida and this is supposed to be a really active hurricane season...so I have the peace of mind of knowing that I'm prepared- kind of like an insurance policy I hope Also, I have read about how hard it is to connect the 50amp cord to the outlet on the generator due to its proximity to the top of the wheel. Yes, I did need to use a little effort to get the cord to bend enough at the top of the wheel to allow for me to plug it in properly but I don't feel it took that much effort but I know it could be different for others. The one thing I am concerned about is that it's not supposed to be used in the rain. I wish that Westinghouse had an inexpensive way of housing the generator outside to protect it from the elements. However, I may have found a solution on YouTube for a DIY shelter...so we'll see. Regardless, my first impression, and I will only use the propane, is that this is a really substantial generator.

User Friendly

We bought this generator to run our house when and if the electricity goes out after severe weather, which our region experiences all twelve months of the year. I like the flexibility of using three different fuels. Set-up is super easy. I really like the user friendly wheeled frame that makes it easy to maneuver the generator into a tight spot for storage. Lots of details, such as the fold-away padded handle, that contribute.

Easy start

I bought this a month ago, 5 day power outage, ran what we needed in the house and kept freezer frozen. It did have a shutdown one day, not sure, we had to go in and clean spark plugs, drain oil, clean air filter and it started, this was after only 24 hours.

Compact and powerful!

I purchased this dual fuel generator to replace my gas powered generator. I was tired of storing and cycling gas (to keep it fresh). I installed an exterior propane gas port that is connected to my 100 gallon propane tank. Now I don't have to worry about running out of fuel or keeping it fresh anymore.

Multipurpose functional Generator

I bought this for a couple of different uses that fit the functions of this generator. Packaging was intact, and did not have any bumps or scuffs once opened. It have a very robust presentation with easy to follow guides and instructions to get it running for the first time. I was able to assemble it and give it a test run within 30 minutes of opening the box. If you're interested in getting a generator that can run home appliances during power outages I recommend this generator.
