Great generator

Awesome machine with push button/fob no hassle start. Very strong and it runs a home 2 ton central AC no problem. A/C, lights, TV, water heater powered with no issues for days after a hurricane. I had a 50 amp power plug installed which I used to connect the generator and power the whole house. It is a little loud.

Good features and performance

I really like the electric push button start, remote start, voltage, hz, hr and maintenance indicators, dual fuel and built in wheel and handle for easy maneuverability. It was impressive that it also came with a battery tender for the electric start battery. I started it when I purchased it using both fuels and it started right up with each. I put varying loads on it and the volts and HZ were right on and didn't vary with changing loads. I added fuel stabilizer and used non oxygenated gas, this is important so the carburetor doesn't get gunked up. I have had to use it 3 times it the first 6 months and it started the instant I hit the switch each time. Very impressive unit.

Quality Product

Ordered it last week and received it the next. I was looking for a dual fuel generator and this fit the bill. Set up was easy, only needed to attach wheels and feet and fill with the provided quart of oil. I connected it to my propane tank and it fired up immediately. It has a 50A socket that will allow me to hook up to my bypass box and now and ready for Florida hurricane season!

Really sweet setup!

The reviews are what sold me on this generator, after unboxing it I can agree. This thing is sweet! It appears that Westinghouse thought of everything and did not sacrifice the original purpose, a quality product with extra bells and whistles! Very happy with this purchase!

Generator worth the money and peace of mind.

This will be a lengthy review and I am in now way being compensated or have any affiliation with Westinghouse. Start with delivery and unboxing: they delivered as promised using XPO, who I had never heard of prior. They were very personable and took good care of the generator prior to and during delivery. They placed it exactly where I wanted in my garage. A+ on delivery. Next assembly and set up: I followed the manual exactly. If you read carefully and FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS” you will see the entire quart of included SAE 10-30 oil needs to be added to the generator and they even include a funnel which I did think “what a nice touch”. Everything went smoothly and there were a couple things I noticed. 1. There is a cut off valve on the fuel line for the gas. I would recommend never getting a generator without one because when you are done using your generator you should cut off the fuel and then let it run until it uses all the fuel in the carb so it does not crystallize prior to you using it again. 2. It was so easy to switch between gas and propane, also well explained in the manual. 3. Battery was already charged but they included a battery charger with this model that plugs into a normal 110 outlet and then plugs into the faceplate on the generator to top off the battery. In the owners manuals it states not to leave it plugged into this charger as it is not a trickle charger and may overcharge the battery if it is left charging more than 8 hours. ANOTHER GREAT UNEXPECTED ADDITION. 4 The pairing of the key fob for the auto start was a little weird but, again, if you follow the directions exactly even though it seems weird it worked the first time. 5. It included the wheel and handle kit unlike a lot of other generators I previously priced and researched. Nice size and sturdy wheels as well. Starting: 1. I used propane and I used the auto start. The first time it did not start on the first or second attempt but fired right up on the third and I think that is normal because the fuel had to make it to the motor. 2. Although it did not start on the first crank it had an auto feature that it automatically tries 3 cranks before failing and turning the start/stop indicator to red indicating a start failure. I only pushed the button once. Great feature!!! 3. I love the counter that shows usage to help you determine when to service. Things it came with I was unaware of: 1 a small tool kit 2. Quart of 4 cycle motor oil 3. A fully charged battery 4. A 6.6 gallon main fuel tank for gas which should give you around 12-14 hours of run time. The only negative thing and I hate to mention it because I feel like I am wanting to eat my cake and have it as well. The generator is noisy! It is a 12,500 watt generator and is going to be loud, but be prepared to use some longer cabling and extension cords to get it away from you. We are using this generator to power our home during hurricane and cold weather power losses here in TX. VERY HAPPY WITH THE PIRCHASE!!! It is definitely big enough to run the whole home heater, all three refrigerators, and one freezer as well as all lights and entertainment as well. Advice: if you are using it to power your home speak to your electrician before buying a interlock kit as different breaker boxes use different kits. Great job Westinghouse

FIVE STARS +

I bought this generator and if you can believe it, our power went out for 12 hours on the day this beauty arrived. The generator is perfect for us since it is portable and accommodate our three refrigerator/freezers. I love the features and did look at the thousands of five-star reviews. Well-built, remote start--so excited not having to worry about my expensive groceries being ruined.

Great Generator!!!

This generator runs great and is surprisingly quite for its size. The builders put a lot of thought in the layout and construction of this machine. Love that is tale natural gas as an option. I would recommend this to anyone who is need of a large but quiet generator.

Excellent

Purchased after four days of being without power two months ago. I have a 4 bedroom 3300 SQF home. This model runs two refrigerators and the essentials. At night I can run the AC unit. I had to use it recently in Hurricane Beryl, where I was able to operate the essential items, and the AC units. No issues at all.

great value

great value. I looked at several generators in this range of power and price. This unit was the best value and power available. It was an easy assembly. Upon our last power outage, we were able to run most items in home. Very happy with this purchase.
