I bought this to replace an old 5500 generator not a Westinghouse as I wanted a larger one to power my house during the hurricanes here in Florida. Ordered it and received it in two days right on time. What needed to be put together took 15 minutes. Added oil that was supplied and put gas in it and it started up the first time. I got this particular one as it has electric start either with the push button on the generator or the supplied fob. Quieter than I expected. I did this particularly so my wife can start it. I would order another in a heartbeat.

Best generator money can buy. Oh and the remote start from the comfort of my couch is just an added bonus. Bought this in anticipation for the winter in Texas due to the snow storm last year. Connected to my plug and powered the house with no problem

Purchased this mainly with a desire to have electric start. The also supplies a remote Key Fob for start and stop operations. Sweet. I learned with electric / remote start, the choke / run are set automatically and have 3 attempts. Although mine start right off every time, gas or propane. Battery and oil for break-in are supplied. Also, the generator has a charging port and Westinghouse supplies the power plug too. And basic hand tools. Although no wrench 19mm(?) is supplied for the tightening or remove all for the LPG connection to the generator. Speaking of that, gas or propane dual fuel. Both work fantastic and switching between the two while running is flawless. As I said, it will start with gas or propane too. The propane connection is supplied. While running, the transition is quite flawless. Other features key to me carbon monoxide sensor and 40A / 50A plug ports. To maintain, all operations(oil, carb, manual pull starter, etc are easily accessible. Smart engineering. We connect ours directly to the Generlink interface for safer operation with power crews and less modifications to have an electrician do anything with the main AC panel. See photo. There are plenty of other generator photos but this is nice. Oh, there is an ST switch option to plug into the generator and into your house. When power loss is detected it will remote start the generator. However, with the GenerLink, that’s not possible. I have recommended this to my neighbors and friends.

It’s only been a couple of weeks since I purchased this generator but I was pleasantly surprised to find a pull rope on the motor. Based on the website information I couldn’t ascertain or see the pull rope but this gives me an alternate option to start the generator if the battery is dead. Since this generator will serve as a temporary backup in case I lose power at home, I will have to come back and add comments after its use after evaluating its operation.

Two times the generator was needed. Both times it would not start without using starter fluid directly. Sprayed into the carburetor. When it ran, it ran well. Since it’s under warranty and used only two times totaling < 10 hours. Asking the manufacturer correct the malfunction and make customer well. Thank you.

I have not used this generator yet but shipping was a nightmare. First one came damage. Had to ship the damaged one back. Make sure you keep the box it comes in and also the pallet it comes on. You will need both of those to ship it back. You have to fill out all the return paperwork and schedule the pick ip

The welded on bolts for the rubber feet were so misaligned they would not work. I had to chisel off the bolts, file the frame smooth, and install them with bolts I purchased. Poor quality control there. Most people would return the unit, unable to install the feet.

The fit and finish of this generator is really impressive for the price! All controls are easy to use, well thought out and of good quality. You get a lot of nice features for a good price. Just look up best generators and almost all review sites have this generator on their list. You won't be disappointed

Bought this a week ago and the rain finally quit to try it out. Starts great, runs great and runs my whole house when I need it know, and probably will. Where I am the main power goes out on a regular basis, but now I won’t have to worry with my new generator!

just arrived today, set up was simple nearly done before driver got out the driveway. only area for improvement: oil included was not enough to bring it up to proper level. Not a big deal if you have some to add. a trip to the store for a few ounces of oil would be annoying.
