Plenty of power for entire house. - What a huge BEAST!! I been running 7550 watts Generac generator past few years, only issues I faced was not able run AC, Dryer what runs 220 volts. We able to cook on stove with only 2 burners. My Golly, this beast is something! Being heavy equipment mechanic, this thing not as loud as my 7550 Generac. I was able do ANYTHING in my home even 5 tons AC. The positive thing it contains breakers on each plugs., lots of plugs to run cords to my shop nearby. Moving it not bad with the solid wheels, weights 680 lbs. loaded with gas and oil. I added rack on top hold my cords and such. Starting this thing really different. Like a robot self start once button was pushed. I put synthetic oil in it instead using factory as I live in cold climate and stat any temperature. This thing runs GREAT!! I put it together was a breeze as I didn’t read the instructions, I just knew what I’m doing. I was lucky enough to own a cherry picker to get it off the pallet. I know some customers not prepare for that. Lol. I was, knew gonna be heavy. Love the frame around it. Xcel energy was so pissed I was prepared to have power when they don’t want me not having power. We people should always be prepared. I’m happy to have this BEAST!! 20k running watts is just more than I need. Those who curious, my house 3,300 square foot. Review: Very Reliable and Great Quality - I bought this generator a few years ago. Living in the Houston area we do experience storms and power outages more frequently than others. Last year hurricane Beryl hit and we were without power for 6 days, but luckily this beast kept us up and running. We were able to also run our downstairs AC unit and pool pump for 6 days. I was able to keep my sanity during a very rough time. We were even able to run lines to our Nextdoor neighbors house so that they could keep the fridge going and one of them had an oxygen tank. It took a lot of gas and that was the most challenging part (finding gas) but I was successful each day and was able to keep it going. Changing oil is simple. Very impressed and pleased that I we purchased it. So worth the $$$. It also starts up so quickly every time. We just pulled it out to test it this year now that it is hurricane season and it started right up. ## Features - 28,000 Peak Watts and 20,000 Running Watts; Easy-Access Start Panel with Keyed Electric Start, Choke Knob, and Fuel Control Valve; Up to 15 Hours of Run Time at 25% load on a 17 Gallon Fuel Tank With Fuel Gauge - Featuring Four GFCI 120V 5–20R Standard Household Outlets, Two 50A 120/240V 14-50R Outlets, Two 30A 120/240V L14-30R Outlets, and One 30A 120V L5-30R Outlet; All Outlets Have Rubber Covers for Added Safety - Powered by a Heavy Duty 999cc Westinghouse V-Twin OHV Engine with a Cast Iron Sleeve, Automatic Low Oil Shutdown, and Idle Control - Engineered with Low THD, So It's Safe for Sensitive Electronics.

Initial start-up (in cold weather) was worrisome. I had just put in gas and oil for the first time. A shot of ether fixed that. Has started with no problems since. 2. Cannot see the oil on the dip stick; it’s there, but the oil is clear and very hard to make out on the shiny dip stick. Also, I couldn't find any marks on the dip stick. Once the oil is used and turns a little brown it should have contrast and be fine. 3. The 50 amp receptacles are too close to the tire and make it hard to plug in the large cords. Worst you’ll have to do is pull a cotter pin and remove the wheel. 4. Cannot tell yet if this generator has a low oil shutoff feature. I hope it doesn’t. A light or alarm would be nice but not a complete shutdown. My older generator had one and it was 3 years of really bad trouble until I figured out the low oil sensor was bad. I cut the wire to it and no more problems. The angels came out and sang. Btw, I’m always checking the oil. 5. Overall it seems very well designed, things are easy to get to and there’s lots to like about it. I just hope it works well over the years with the sporadic use that is intended. 6. Mine says it is made in Vietnam, not China. So I consider that a step up. ## Frequently Bought Together - Westinghouse 28000 Peak Watt Home Backup Portable Generator, Electric Start with Auto Choke, Transfer Switch Ready 30A & 50A Outlets, Gas Powered,Blue - VEVOR 50 Amp Generator Cord and Power Inlet Box Kit, 50FT Generator Extension Cord NEMA 14-50P/SS2-50R STW 6/3+8/1 AWG with Twist Lock Connector, Pre-Drilled Inlet Box, ETL Listed --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/369096310-westinghouse-28000-peak-watt-home-backup-portable-generator-electric-start](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/369096310-westinghouse-28000-peak-watt-home-backup-portable-generator-electric-start) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
