Well built unit and easy to move around

I received this a week ago and had to get fittings for my natural gas line. Hooked it up pushed the start for two seconds and it started Immediately , glad we have this and know need to run out for liquid gas as in the pass after a hurricane. Looking forward to using it but hope that this is an insurance policy in case of a storm here in Naples Florida.

Great looking generator

I bought this Westinghouse generator as it had the most power for portable generators I looked at. Super easy to set up and start. Bought for a great price and will use for possible future storms and possible hurricanes. Will also use in my backyard when I need electricity to do projects and other things.

Prepare for Storage

I already wrote a review when I purchased this generator in June 2024. As I indicated in my first review it started right up, but actually I was hoping I would not need to use it.. However, two hurricanes later I did have a chance to use it. I was hooked it up to our house breaker box and was able to run everything I needed, including the AC. It worked great. I also hooked up a Hughes Autoformers Surge Protector. The down side is when I went to store it. Since there is not a drain on the fuel tank, you have to siphon the gas out. What a pain. There should absolutely be a drain on the tank! Also the manual that came with it was not correct dealing with storage. I had to download on online. That almost made me only give a four star rating Now, I hope I never have to use it again. :-)

Started Right Up

I put oil in this generator today, connected the battery terminals, hooked up the propane tank hose and started it up. I don't plan to use it with gasoline unless absolutely necessary. Propane will store long term without concern for breakdown and deterioration unlike gasoline. But I like having the option to run on either in the case of several days without power. I also like the power output potential of this generator. I can use it to run my AC Welding machine with small electrodes.

No Power.

Bought 2 of these generators (New) on line. Both start and run great but neither will generate any power at the receptacles. I was informed that both had probably been sitting in a warehouse for while and the AVR (automatic voltage regulator) had lost it's magnetism. I went online to the Westinghouse parts department to order them, Only to find out that the AVR's I need are sold out. (I wonder why?) P.S. I'm not even sure if this is the problem yet.

I love my Westinghouse generator!

This generator was very easy to set up from reading the instructions. I had an electrician friend install a transfer switch, so I can use my generator to run my whole house during electrical outages. After charging the battery, filling the unit with oil (included) and high octane gasoline, it started right up, using the electric start button. We then tested the remote start, and it worked equally well. What a handy feature that remote is during icy and snowy weather! With outages usually happening in the worst of winter conditions, it gives me great peace of mind to have this reliable back-up that easily runs my whole house. Good job, Westinghouse!

More than I expected

Just got this. Nice packing. Many more features than I expected for the price. Great instructions. Easy to set up. Hooked to LP tank and fired right up. Really low running sound compared to my old smaller gas one. Easy and light to move with the large wheels and padded handle. Now I cant wait for a power failure.

Great features and easy to set up

This generator was very easy to set up, and is simple to operate. I did get help in setting it up, but appreciate that it will be simple to operate going forward, which is an important feature for a novice user like me. I like the option of using any of 3 fuel types.

Great Features!

I mainly bought this generator to do some welding where I'm not able to plug into the grid and for the occasional power outage. I went with this one for the wattage but also all the extra plugs and accessories that you can run on this machine. Being able to run gas or Propane with a flip of a switch is extremely handy if you are out of either gas at a given time. 3 different ways to start the engine is also nice. Very versatile generator with lots of power to handy small to big loads. It's also very beautiful with the black and blue!

Great piece of equipment

Got it home, got the wheels and legs on with no problem, charged the battery overnight, gassed it up and cranked it. Powered on my six circuit transfer switch box and ran for several hours. Easier to move than anticipated, and no problems at all. Ready for the next power outage.
