Workhorse Generator!

Would Recommend

We’ve been saying for years we were going to get a generator and finally did and we’re thrilled with this purchase. Extremely user friendly and the dual fuel could come in clutch depending upon the reason for an outage. Westinghouse has been around 140 years so we have complete confidence in the generator’s longevity. Super solid purchase!

Generator is nice and compact. Lighter and quieter than expected. Rolls around easily, even on gravel. Starts on first pull on propane. hook up is easy. All the controls are easy to see and access. Runs my RV air conditioner with ease. So far, this generator has exceeded my expectations.

Electric start is great

Electric start is great. It will try to start 3 times before it stops trying. Put a 200 amp battery charger on it and it barely even noticed

Remote start is a must!

I just purchased my first generator. The electric starter fired up on propane with the first press of the button. Excited to take to my job site.
