A solid and well made generator

We purchased this generator after a winter storm, and we’ve been really impressed with its performance. It’s built solid and heavy, with a CO sensor for added safety, a push-button remote start/shut-off. One of the key reasons we chose this model is its TRI-fuel capability, which lets you run it on propane, gasoline, or natural gas—perfect for different situations. Its portability is also a plus, with a handle and wheels that make it easy to move. Overall, this generator offers excellent value.

Easy Install - Easy to Move

The assembly was done today and it was easy breezy! I'm surprised how easy it is to move this 230 lb unit. We have gray rocks and it rolled effortlessly. The plan is to keep it covered in the carport then move it close to the house when it needs to be hooked up to electric panel during a storm. Our electrician installs Westinhouse a bunch and gave the product a big thumbs up to protect our Austin home.

Provides peace of mind for rural life

This setup has provided my fam with a cost-effective way to ensure our water pump and heat stay on when the lines are down. my initial tests are quite satisfactory. We installed an outside connection through to an existing panel using an interlock configuration. The setup and startup was flawless, including the remote start/stop. This is very convenient, as I can startup from inside at my panel.

High quality very happy

I have had this only a short time, but so far very happy with it and looks to be very well built. Did go with the try fuel option, probably only ever going to run Gasoline but nice to have the Propane option if needed. Remote was a big selling point for me. I like the ability to start it up from the comfort of my home

A life saver

We lose power a lot and with my wife's medical equipment it is a must have. Westinghouse is a brand I trust and know. It's definitely worth the money and I don't want to forget the remote start that way if I'm not home she can start it from inside the house. I'm very pleased

Mostly positive set up and break-in experience.

I received this a few days ago. So far the assembly was easy and the Users Manual is well written. I have not been able to pair the remote start fob yet... when I follow the instructions the generator tries to start instead of going into pairing mode. Also, the "break-in" instructions need to be as obvious as all the safety warning tags. It was just a sentence kind of buried in the middle of the manual, and even then it only says to run under 50% capacity for the first 5 hours. If you want to prepare this to be ready for an extended heavy load during a power outage, you really need to complete the break-in immediately. I ran it in through 3 heat cycles, doing an oil change after the 1st hour, another cool down after 2 more hours, and then 2 more hours to reach 5 total, and doing one more oil change. I modulated loads periodically using variable 1500W a heat gun. Would have liked to add a space heater if I had one to load it closer to 50%.

Good Features, Easy Setup

Just bought this generator last week. Shopping was quick and professional. Setup took about 30 minutes, and I was up and running. I'll use natural gas only, but having the other options is great in an emergency. Many great features! At 230 pounds, I recommend two people to install the wheels, etc.

Missing generator registration card

I bought this two days ago. I am happy. The only thing that’s missing is the owners manual and I believe there is supposed to be some sort of spark plug wrench and it’s supposed to come with some sort of a dongle for remote start I did not get that But it does start up. I’m not gonna be putting gas in it. My purpose was to run this from propane, so I don’t have to deal with a generator that falls out on gasoline and be dealing with a generator that’s hard to start during a hurricane season with bad gas And fuel stabilizer

Exactly What I Needed

This is a well-built tri-fuel generator that plugs directly into the transfer box for my circuit breaker. I especially appreciate the detailed documentation, parts lists, and support resources. This is what separates a solid company from those fly-by-night places. Yet the price is still comparable. Very happy with this so far.
