Haven't actually used this generator for a power outage yet, but putting it together was easy and it started easily. Allowing it to run for a few minutes, it should be exactly what we need to run the A/C in our home for the frequent power outages in our area during storms.

The unit was easy to put together and move around given its weight. All the buttons and dials are easy to understand. I ordered a dual fuel unit but it was upgraded by the manufacturer to a tri-fuel unit at no extra charge. Unfortunately, it would not start.

This machine is so much better then I was led to believe from my coworkers. While it is on the heavy side, it has wheels and a handle so moving it is not a problem. Very powerful and the tri fuel option is defiantly a plus. Highly recommend and would buy again if needed

Our power goes out when the wind blows. Last hurricane/storm season we battled between needing to keep enough food in the house to feed our family and wanting to maintain bare bones levels so we didn't keep losing refrigerated/frozen items with each passing thunderstorm. Now we don't have to worry about it! This rig is easy to store, easy to use & will keep critical appliances running, even when the wind kicks up.

This generator was complete, with a trickle charger, gas charging hose, and oil funnel. The operator's manual is the best I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot of manuals). Just followed the directions and it started right up. I almost can't wait for a power outage. LOL

Just received the generator and was able to install the wheel kit without too much difficulty. I added oil and hooked up to propane and it started on the first attempt. Hooked it up to some load and it ran perfectly. A little loud but no louder than other generators I have owned with less power. This generator is well built/heavy duty. This will work great as my home back up during outages (hurricanes, etc.). Very pleased.

I just received the generator today. I have not started or tested it yet. My initial visual impressions are that it very well built and sturdy, and that everything is well laid out. I like that it has covers over the outlets when not in use to keep debris and insects out. Not all of the other generators I had looked at had these covers.

My old 10,000 watt generator died a few weeks ago so I began looking for a new one before hurricane season and came upon this tri-fuel model. Haven't used it yet but I am in the process of upsizing my gas meter for maximum performance per other owner recommendations as well as purchasing a 40 lb. propane tank for stand by.

The generator was delivered to the home yesterday. Despite its weight, the setup was straightforward and manageable without assistance. I charged the battery using the supplied trickle charger. Today, I hooked up a standard 20 lb propane cylinder and fired it up. The generator started on the second attempt using the remote FOB. The features are all clearly identifiable. I monitored the output using a FLUKE multi-meter connected to an oscilloscope for 30 minutes, and the 240V and 120V outputs were very stable, in fact more stable in frequency and voltage amplitude than the normal fluctuation observed in the utility-supplied power to the house. I particularly like the quick disconnect for the gas input. This will provide an easy connection to my larger propane cylinders. This generator replaces an older 16 kW self-starting generator (> 10 times the cost of the Westinghouse unit) that was done in by the Florida weather. Because the Westinghouse unit is portable, it can easily be stored in the garage during the hurricane off-season. Fortunately, the existing transfer connection makes for a quick hook-up to the home power panel. As expected of its size, the generator is not quiet. During use, it is on an outside wall of the garage, away from living areas. I will construct a protective housing to shield it from the elements and reduce noise while in use. I couldn't be happier with the purchase (days were spent investigating all options and products).

I bought this to aid with florida hurricane season. After extensive research this generator seems adequate and anything more would have been overkill for my needs. The generators comes with a maintenance schedule which needs to be followed to the T. Great Machine.
