Review Posted 10/30/2024 
I received my generator in a timely manner. It was easy to put the wheels on, and started the first time. I love the remote control as I’m getting older so I don’t need to be pulling on a cord. It gives options for gas or propane, which is awesome. Overall, just a good value. We are very pleased with our purchase.

First one received was damaged by FedEx but customer service took care of getting it exchanged out. Received new one and set it up easily. Also not as loud as I thought it would be.

Review Posted 12/08/2023 
I recently got this to replace my old 10 HP recoil start generator due to my health. It was lighter, easy to put together, definitely quieter and easy starting. Starts right up the first time. The price and quality were my reason to choose this generator. I am now ready for any power outage!

Great Dual Fuel Generator
By Sam 
Kentucky
Purchased 02/20/2023 | 
Review Posted 04/21/2023 
Buying this generator was truly one of my better ideas, and I wish I'd done it sooner. It is really easy to use, and has a dual fuel option, which is super helpful...for example, last year I was in Nova Scotia when the hurricane hit and knocked out power in a large chunk of the province, even gas stations in like a 200 mi radius had no power and no ability to pump gas, so in that situation, if I had had this generator then I could have attached the spare propane tank from my trailer and had power. The propane option doesn't generate quite as much power, but its still a great option to have.

During the most recent storm, I used the LP since trees were down everywhere and I couldn't physically leave the neighborhood, we were out of power for over a week, and while this couldn't power the whole house it did an amazing job keeping the deep freezer, the refrigerator, microwave and a few lights running for us, it also did a good job charging my ecoflow after dark when the solar panels were asleep.

As an older person, the push button start and the remote start are amazing, trying to pull a cord to start a generator is not really something I can do anymore, and those options made it a breeze for me to get this started. I definitely plan to get a second one when I have funds available.

Very Good Replacement
By Keith S

Review Posted 03/22/2023 
In early March, 2023, there was a damaging ice storm. Eight days prior to the storm, I got a new heart valve. I also had a portable generator in my garage but could not use it due to my limitation on physical movement. The next day I decided to buy an electric start generator. I choose the Westinghouse. I am very satisfied with my decision. Not only does this product have an electric start, but it also comes with a remote start and has an automatic choke. The unit is smaller than expected, but that makes moving much better. The only con may be the smaller gas tank (4 Gal). The unit was shipped without an owners manual. I called Electric Generators Direct. They emailed me a copy immediately. The price includes shipping and was delivered in 2 business days. Over all this generator is perfect for me.

Gets It Done
By Lynn B

Review Posted 10/27/2022 
I live off grid and have solar and wind. When nature doesn't provide, my generator does. Push the button on the remote fob and presto power to my whole cabin. Actually own 2, one for my garage too!!! Money well spent.
