I bought this after hurricane Helene to replace a 20+ year old Coleman 6250. I wanted one big enough to run my whole house, well and central air conditioner so I wouldn't have to switch stuff on and off which is fine for a dot or two but when you're without power for weeks that gets old quickly. Hope this one last like my Coleman has and it's nice that this Westinghouse has a 3 year warranty.

I picked this up yesterday and started breaking it in today. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at the build quality of this generator. It was incredibly easy to get setup, instructions were easy to understand. It started up first try and run very smoothly. The smart idle is a great feature! Though the instructions don't state as much, I am doing a break-in period of running it for an hour with no load, changing oil, running it again for an hour, changing oil, and then running it again with a load. I don't see a reason it wouldn't be able to handle any household load I throw at it. Will follow-up after all of this is done. Despite the weight of the machine it is incredibly easy to move around. Not only that, it even looks great. If I had any complaints it would be changing the oil. It appears to be virtually impossible to do so without an absolute mess. Otherwise, I am ecstatic about my purchase. I got a 10ft 6 gauge cord to plug directly to the 50 amp outlet. I have a feeling the setup will work very well!

This is the second Westinghouse generator I have purchased this month. The dual fuel capability for monthly exercise of the engine was a key feature as well as the low THD. I have owner Generac and a variety of box brands and the workmanship and features for the price make them a high value purchase.

I'm 100% satisfied with this product it seems to be just what they told and explained what it could do and what it would not do. It seems just right for what I need for my home to run my air condition and refrigerator and keep my house pretty much going, you know as normal great product.

I bought this generator as a home back up generator and have it connected through my electric panel with a 50 amp breaker I have a 3200 ft.² home with an additional garage apartment that is 600 ft.². This generator is able to run my whole house, including three air conditioners. I have a 4 ton, a 2 ton and a 1 ton. The 4 ton and 2 1/2 ton are for the house and I put soft starts on them. The 1 ton is for the garage apartment with no soft start. I have used this generator during power outages, and it will start and run all three AC units as long as they do not start at the same time. I've had no issues with the generator stopping during AC starts. I just hear it changing to a low tone as more load is put on it, but it has never stopped. I would recommend this generator for anyone looking for a home power back up.

I was looking to buy A portable heavy duty gen. that could power almost the whole house with dual fuel. After comparing others gen. and reading the specification, the Westinghouse stood out .This is a well built gen. I think this going to be my last gen. I will own.

I bought this a month ago. I'm very pleased with my purchase. I research many generators and read reviews on them, including this one. So, I purchased this one. This generator is a powerhouse and it has many great features. If we ever have another storm like we did in Texas, I know this will be an asset to us, as well as other reasons to use it.

Really is a 5-Star but since i'm nit-picking I knocked a star off due to the difficulty of trying to get the battery leads connected. This thing is a beast so understand it's 350-pound weight is no joke. You can't beat the value of this considering its output power and the fact it is rated for less than 5% THD (safe for most electronics). I will be using it for occasional portable needs but primarily as a home back-up generator. It will easily handle all my back-up power needs. Very excited to finally have back-up power here in Northern Maine.

My neighbor bought this and my electrician recommended this generator. I have a dual panel breakers box so I needed this model. I ran it for about 7 hrs to break it in and have changed the oil and oil filter. Very easy to change. It didn't bat an eye when I tested it hooked up to the house. However it does take it two times to start each time and on one occasion it died and restarted by itself. The life timer on the unit also stopped working after that for some reason. Other than that, it is simple to operate.

After some severe weather where we lost power all day it was time to purchase a generator. Wanted the natural gas option as I'm lucky enough to have a line ran outside off my deck. Package showed up on time in great condition. Set up is simple and this generator comes with every thing you need , even the natural gas line! For the price and ease of use I would definitely recommend. Little heavy(to be expected for its size) has wheels to roll and 2 adults would have no problem lifting this into a truck if needed to move from one site to the next. Im OK with it as I don't plan to move it much once it's in place just needed a big enough generator to power the house in case we have an outage again.
