Westinghouse5000 Peak Watt Super Quiet Portable Inverter Generator, Remote Electric Start with Auto Choke, Wheel & Handle Kit, RV Ready, Gas Powered, Parallel Capable

We have used this generator a couple of times this summer while camping. It works really well and was easy to set up! It barely used any power when I ran our air conditioner. We have a small Flagstaff A-frame camper, so I can't say how it would hold up with a larger one. I love the remote control option because we can turn it on and off while in the camper which is lovely when the weather is bad. I was very happy that it was a quiet generator, just as the reviews said. I was also relieved that it isn't too heavy. My husband and I lift it into the back of our truck without a problem. I have already recommended this item to a few family members and friends.

I've had this now for about 8 months. I followed the recommendation of other reviews and bought a drain extension to make changing the oil easier and cleaner. I installed this before I filled it with oil the first time. Ideally you should buy this before you need it and break it in properly following the directions in the included manual as you keep it below 50% power and vary the load. Upon the recommendation of another friend I changed the oil multiple times during that break in period. I found lots of metal fragments in the oil each time I changed it during the break in. Once I was happy with how the oil looked coming out I stopped changing the oil. It ended up being something like 8 times. Maybe overkill, but I want to help the motor as much as I can for longevity. It's primary function for us will be a backup generator for when we lose power. As such, I only intend on using the propane function so I don't have to worry about fuel going bad.I've only done the break along with the additional oil changes so I have around 18 hours on it. I didn't even use a full 20lb propane tank. That wasn't a full service load either, but I was still happy with the fuel consumption amount. I like that the noise increases and decreases with the load and that it isn't just this constant steady loud noise. It's very portable with the wheels and handle and makes it easier to get in and out of the garage. It's a bit heavy if you were needing to lift this up (into a pickup or up and down stairs) but not out of the question.This unit about the right size for us offering the power we need for outages. I like that it has different types of receptacles to charge and power a variety of things. While costing more than other standard generators its a good value for an inverter generator. The included FOB worked great and I was able to remote start the generator from inside the house. During inclement weather this would be a big plus.I can't really think of any cons except for maybe access to the oil drain/fill.Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase and it will pay for itself after the first multi-day outage we have by not having to throw away our perishables in the fridges and freezer. Time will tell on longevity, but so far so good.

Beautifully shipped, easy instructions and started right up. I love everything about it from the sleek design, very quiet, to just an all over well made product. Runs everything in my 32ft RV with power to spare.

I looked through a lot of generator options, and this one was a good balanced option between ease of use and load it could handle. If I need more load capacity, I can add another one in series. This is also the heaviest generator my wife could move around our property, if she needed to. If she used the extendable handle she'd get gas everywhere, but more on that later.It is very quiet for how large of a generator it is.Remote start is really really cool. The remote start fob is of automobile quality, battery included.This appears to be the most cost-efficient non-open frame generator available in early 2025, so despite my 4/5 review, if you are on the fence of a generator with a built-in inverter vs an open frame generator - get this one. I do recommend it.4 of 5 stars because after initial setup, it left quite a bit of oil in the spot I had left it after it ran, coming from the panel for the oil dipstick and draining onto the wheel adjacent to that. That might be user error. The other contributing thing was that moving the generator with the extendable handle causes quite an oil and gas slosh / spill situation, so it's really not all that mobile once it's ready to run unless you're going over a surface you don't mind getting oil and gas on in which case the wheels are probably undersized for that surface (grass or gravel?) and because the instructions say to ensure you don't leave gas on the exterior plastic cover, you can't just treat it as a dirty tool when that happens, you need to wipe it up or risk damaging the cover.

Have 150 hours and it's been flawless. We use this piece while camping at MX tracks on weekends. It's just as quiet as any other inverter others use. It powers all 30 amp features at the same time without issues. A/C, lights, fans, microwave, water pump, water heater. So far, I love it. I recommend following the manual for service, oil changes etc. oil is pretty grey for the first couple changes but it clears out. Easy to transport with telescopic handle.
