Great generator at a great price!

I compared this to a well-known competitor's Inverter Generator, and this has: * More Starting and Running Wattage * A 50A plug * 3 year warranty vs 90 day for the other competitor's generator * Lower Price Plus--this comes with every single thing you need to get it running (aside from fuel), included in the box. Lastly, this is the quietest generator I've ever owned, including the three other Westinghouse generators I've owned or still own.

SSOOOO QUIET

It was easy to assemble. I am running the break in period now and am hopeful everything will run smoothly. I'm transitioning from a gas unit that is VERY heavy and VERY loud so this is wonderful. My husband couldn't even hear it through the phone. So far, I'd recommend this generator!

great invertor

Just got this and doing the break in period. So far easy directions and started right up. run 25 % load for break in period. Easy access to the sides and the oil change should be a breeze since they have a hose to empty the oil. I wish the % load lights and the fuel lights would be a little brighter.

Power and Security

We live out in the country and electricity goes out several times a year, especially when it is very cold and demand is high. This generator runs out heat pump with ease along with all other appliances in the house. I'm very satisfied with this purchase.

Good but sloppy build

Just received the rev2 with a build date of 3/2024. Before starting it up I ran through some basic inspections and the assembly. First the assembly. One wheel could not be installed because the bolt diameter was too big. It measured just over 5mm while the other measured about 4.8mm. The bearing that it went through measured 5mm exactly. I have to file down the bolt shaft to go through the wheel. Next, some basic checks. I pulled the spark plug to check the gap. It measured about 0.020" but the spec was 0.024-0.032" or something like that. I reset the gap and reinstalled. Then I removed all the other panels for inspection. The panel over the exhaust port had a stripped out screw put into the metal clip and was stuck in with loctite. I had to remove the loctite and retap it. All of the plastic parts that held the metal retraining clips show white stress marks. The sound-dampening foam was poorly placed and covered the vent holes so I had to reposition it. The gasket on the air filter was in pieces instead of a continuous piece. The corners were pulled too tight and the gasket had to overlap itself. It was misaligned and pulled partially off when I removed the cover. The plugs on the connector panel were all misaligned, and none lined up straight. I haven't started it up yet but will do so tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well. the generator seems solid with just some sloppy assembly.

Largest and best inverter generator

There are not many inverter generators this large, and this had all the features and a good quality reputation, at the best price. I wanted an inverter unit because it wouldn't damage electronics - but more importantly is more fuel efficient and quieter.

The generator that has it all!

I bought this inverter to power my whole (3200sq ft) house. I had a 20 yr old generator given to me that was brand new, still in the box. It would not power up my high efficiency furnace. Turns out the furnace immediately identified the “dirty” power from the old generator. But everything runs fine on this Westinghouse inverter. Even with the well pump. Im very pleased with the quality and the quietness of this unit. Also the run time on either propane or gasoline is impressive. At the time of purchase these models were sold out everywhere. That should tell you people are buying them as fast as they can make them. There are no other inverters by any other manufacturer this size.

Perfect generator

Purchased this generator after doing a ton of research. This Invertor generator fits the bill. Excellent design and is super quiet for the size. Easy break in period and the generator is ready to go. Looking forward to getting many years from this one.

Awesome Generator

This generator is fantastic. It's well built. Extremely quit and easy to use. The included tools make it simple to put together right out of the box. I'm still in the break in period but overall I'm really impressed. Going from a propane Generac open frame to this generator is the difference between night and day. This one will power everything in my large house. Not sure yet if it will power my Lennox XC21 4 ton AC unit but I'm going to have an HVAC guy see if it can. Might need a different start capacitor on the AC but we shall see.

Huge, heavy, and super quite!! This is well built!

Unboxed and installed the wheels, front legs, and handles, this has to be done before adding oil!! Once you get it upright on its on its wheels and feet, you can add the supplied oil. This comes with a small tube/funnel to use to fill the oil and all the tools you'll need to assemble it. they aren't cheap flat metal tools either! The side panels have sound deadening foam and it really works, this was so quiet when it was running. I used LP gas out of a 20lb bottle to get it started and ensure it works out of the box. I connected a compressor up to it and let it go. Barely even acknowledge the load from the compressor. With LP gas, expect it to take a second time to start due to the priming. I am beyond and impressed with this, I am looking forward to losing power now just to let this thing power my small house!
