Sturdy Design

I bought this generator over a month and a half ago. I haven't used it yet but wanted a good generator in case I ever needed one. Westinghouse has a good reputation for generators, and I wanted something that is reliable. It is sturdy and well built. Its heavy but the wheels take care of the weight. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars only because I haven't used it yet.

A winning combination of Price-to-Performance!

Based on this generator's capacity (especially when using natural gas), features, quality, and price, I believe it's a Best in Class product. I am a qualified electrician, so I had no problem installing it in my own home, with a 50amp 12-circuit manual transfer switch. In my area, we suffer more than our fair share of power outages -- our electric utility company shuts down their grid (sometimes for many hours at a time) whenever the wind blows, so as to reduce the possibility of their power lines arcing and causing wildfires. I've had enough, and for me and my family this backup generator (connected to my home via the manual transfer switch) is IMHO the most cost-effective and practical solution (and I thoroughly evaluated a whole-home solar with batteries solution, as well as a permanently installed fully automatic whole home "standby" generator solution). Now, I won't go as far as to say that I'm looking forward to the next outage, but I am very confident that I'm very ready for it!

Perfect Backup Gen

Performance-wise, the generator delivers consistent, clean power—more than enough to run essential appliances during outages, including a refrigerator, lights, and even our HVAC system. I especially appreciate the remote start feature, which makes operation convenient and safe in poor weather. The home is 2,300 sqft with a 5ton AC, mind you. I have a soft start to help alleviate the power. The fuel efficiency has been impressive; a full tank runs much longer than I anticipated, and noise levels are relatively low for its size — more of a steady hum than a disruptive roar. Maintenance is simple, with easy oil access and a reliable monitoring display. Overall, I highly recommend this Westinghouse generator to anyone looking for a dependable backup power solution. It offers great value for the price and peace of mind when the power goes out.

Generator is awesome, best bang for the buck!

Very happy with this purchase. Was without power for 6 days during Helene and borrowed a smaller Westinghouse generator and realized the value of owning one. Now I have a mechanical interlock breaker installed with a 50amp RV plug and now have this monster ready to go. I have tested it out and it performed flawlessly. Highly recommend this generator!

Best Features

I researched for several weeks before deciding to purchase the Westinghouse generator. The box was in perfect condition on arrival. Setup was easy. I am going to enjoy the tri fuel option as well as the remote start features. Living in a rural are that hasn't had new lines run in decades we have had power outages every year since we have lived here and it will be great not having to worry about no heat or air conditioning, spoiled food and inability to get weather reports.

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

3 Fuel Options are Great

I am just through the break in period. The generator seems very well built and thought out. I really like the versatility of the 3 fuel options. My only con so far is under 40% load you hear a little what sounds like valve tapping. I did check the valve lash and it was spot on. I hope that it improves.

Heavy duty generator!

It was out of stock for a bit but I'm glad I was able to get one when I did. We couldn't justify spending the money on a whole home standby generator but this one was priced just right for us and our needs allowing us to run our AC, fridges and many devices we typically use. Love that it's tri-fuel so we can use natural gas and not worry about trying to get gas or propane during a storm. Thank god for the wheels because this thing is heavy. Be careful trying to lift out of the box. It's a great buy for something I hope we rarely have to use!

Easy Set Up!!!

I have been waiting for this product to be back in stock for a few months and was quick to purchase once it was. I live in Houston, TX and there have been several weather events this year that luckily did not affect power to our house for too long. The peace of mind that this product has provided cannot be measured as I now have a way to power my entire home in the event of any long term power outage. The ease to set this up and the reliability of this generator to power my home is one of the main reason I purchased it and recommend to anyone who ask.

This Generator is a BEAST!

I bought this Generator a couple weeks ago and i just took it out the box today. I am amazed with all the features that it comes with. 4-120v GFCI receptacles, circuit breakers for each individual circuit. You can crank this with push button or remote start, if all fails you can start it with a pull cord. Also included are propane and natural gas hoses. I highly recommend it!!
