We purchased this generator as a backup whole-home power source. We had an electrician install the necessary power inlet box and main panel upgrade, and the system works great. This generator has great features for manual and remote start, multi-fuel options, good looking and easy to move around. For the few parts needed for assembly, the generator was ready to go in no time! I would recommend this generator in a heartbeat! Whether we are powering the necessities in the house during an emergency or plugging in the blender for a Margarita, I think we have it covered!

I bought this generator as emergency back-up power in the event of an extended power outage. When initially tested, the 5-ton AC unit threw the breaker every time it kicked on, but after installing a soft-start on my AC unit, it operated just fine. It ran the AC, electric water heater, selected lights, internet outlets, TV, etc...all of the essentials that we would need in an emergency. It will most likely need a lot of gasoline, so I am planning on having several 5-gallon gas cans available so that I can keep it running in an emergency.

Exactly what we need to run the house when the power goes out. The wheels make moving to position easy; would be too heavy otherwise. Storms have become much more extreme and loss of power is more frequent. Hired an electrician to install the breaker, transfer switch and outside power outlet.

I finally got an electrican to hook this up for me today. I was very impressed that when I pushed the start button that after a very brief pause it started on the first try. The electrician checked the voltage from inside the breaker box and it was what it was supposed to be. My wife even turned the dryer on while we were testing and it kept right on going while TV's, lights, internet, a window AC, ceiling fans, 3 refrigerators, a freezer and I'm not sure what else was running. I was very impressed. I'm very glad that we have this backup for the next time we lose power.

So far so good. Have only got thru the 5 hour break in period so far. Hooked up to my house through a 50a inlet box with an Interlock kit in the main box. Ran the whole house on Propane including the 4-ton AC in a short test run. My furnace did show a error code, but continued to run. Fingers crossed there. The remote start is a neat feature, 200lbs isn't terrible, dual fuel is great! Hope to never run it on Gas. I hope to update later after YEARS of use.

used an electrician to install 50 amp plug. have not had to run it for a lengthy period yet but set up out of the box was easy to follow. initial electric start & run were smooth. performed 2 test runs since setup & electric start was immediate, ran smooth & delivered power to the areas I chose thru the fuse box. initial reaction is very positive

This generator works really well as it was shipped promptly and I was able to get it prepped and ready use immediately. Love the phob starter and the ability to use with propane and gas. Powers up part of the house and happy with the 30Amp Cord I have used with a switch on my panel box.

Prefect size Generator for my 2400 sq ft. home. Runs the well pump, all lights, computers, TV's, 2 Refrigerators and more. I like the smaller engine because it is easy on gas, an important consideration for extended power outages. This unit took 1.5 qts 10-30w motor oil. I drained the oil after 8 hrs to get the metal shavings out of the new engine, then replaced the oil with synthetic 10-30w Mobil 1. This reduced the noise level and vibration considerably. Very well built for the price. Super Happy!

Very nice quality and built generator. Plenty of power for my whole home and comes with nice features such as remote start and also the ability to use a Westinghouse automatic mini transfer switch. Compact and easy to move around also. I also bought a Westinghouse tent cover to run the generator when it is raining or snowing and really like the tent cover also. Nice quality

We've been looking for a generator and decided this would be the best one for us. We got a great deal and when our electrician came to set up the generator hook up for us was very impressed as the generator we had bought and the price we had got it for. This powered right up and will serve us well the next time we loose power.
