I bought this two days ago to run my entire house during a power outage. I cranked it up and it started first thing. My house is approximately 2700 square foot. I got it connected to my plug and tested what all I could run. The main thing I wanted was my lights, heat, refrigerators and freezers. All ran like a charm.

I bought this model the iGen2550DFc because it will run on propane. I didn't want to transport a gasoline generator in my tow vehicle (SUV) or in the trailer. I like that it will run on gasoline as well, but I likely will not be using gasoline often. I like that it is easy to start. Once I figured how to connect the propane it started on the third pull. It is not as quiet as I hoped, but it is not bad.

I purchased this during a critical time when frozen tree limbs and power lines cause power outages. I have not used it yet but the product has a number to great features for the cost. Switching between gas and propane - wheels to maneuver easily and a well labled buttons and switches. New to the use of generators and this one is portable and appears to be easy to use.

I bought this Generator end of last year due to increasing power outages in our area caused by big storms and deep freezes. We love the features like the remote start and fuel options. The portability aspect of this generator makes it a plus. We highly recommend it!

I tried the unit out when I first got it. Hooked up a propane tank and it started right up. Stored it away and 5 months later it got its first real test. Same scenario. Plugged it into the house's transfer box, started right up and it ran our fridge, separate freezer, well pump and had access to electricity outlets in the kitchen for lighting and charging electronics. Couldn't ask for more. About 5 hours on a 20lb propane tank and a quick change out when needed. Will probably add a natural gas spigot outside so no changing tanks at all. Tri fuel option is terrific!

Just got the Westinghouse 5000. Followed the simple instructions regarding adding oil. Decided to try the propane fule first, so I just connected the gas regulator that was provided to one of my bbq tanks, turned on the power switch, pulled the starter one time and it started right up. It was more quiet than I had expected, and after the motor idled for a bit, I switched to the ECO mode, which brought motor rpms and sound down even lower. I had read some reviews where people had trouble restarting, so I turn it off, waited about 30 mins, and restarted it using the pull cord. It started on the 3 pull this time. I haven't tried the electric start as the battery hasn't been charged enough, but it came with a charger so that is what I will try nex. So far very impressed with the product.

I bought this generator about a month ago. When I set it up, the instructions were easy to understand. It was up and running in 15 minutes. Very pleased! Seamless transition from gasoline to LP. Battery start and option for remote start. Awesome value. Look no further.

We live in Florida and purchased this as an insurance in the event of a hurricane. October 2024 Hurricane Milton occurred and we were 20 miles from the center and lost power. The generator was and will be for years to come a very important part of our hurricane insurance preparedness.

When the hurricane hit and cause a lot of down trees we were without power for over a week. My neighbor a was gracious enough to lend us his generator and it was reliable and keep the power to the main items in the house to keep us afloat till we got our power back.

I bought this portable generator after we lost power in our home during a bad storm in March of 2025. After suffering without electricity for a day and a half, my wife said we need a generator. After searching different generators, I found this Westinghouse to have the best reviews. Once the generator arrived it was easy to set up and easy to start. I am very happy with my purchase.
