think good product, if only it had worked

The generator had all the features one could want, but unfortunately the generator didn't run long enough (8 minutes) to find out how it would perform. after a few minutes it started to have problems with engine speed and only went downhill from there, to a point to where the engine wouldn't start.

Generator disappointed

This generator can't run the 120v plugs at the same time as the 240v ,I have it set up in a shed ,but I can't run a fan at the same time your running the generator .I have to run an extension cord from the house outlet. If you're looking do the same I can't recommend it.

Very happy with the purchase

I have only ran this for the 5 hour break in period and was very pleased with the start up quiet operation. I hopefully will never switch to gasoline. I did have a issue. starting it up for the second time of operation. I have discovered. when the propane is cold it will not run . Say below 40 degrees Fahrenheit I used 20lb propane tanks from the grill, I am in the process of making an insulted. box with a 60 watt light bulb for my six tanks. I will also look into a larger volume tank ,which may correct the issue , But the generator is sweet,

It's What I Wanted And Needed

I've been using this big dog for a couple months. It's big. It's heavy. It's easy to get started with the included engine oil (precise pre measured amount) and included funnel. It's easy to connect the easy to access battery leads. It's loaded on a big green gorilla cart that I purchased to provide easy mobility. It's push button start. It has a remote start fob. For me, it exclusively runs on propane. It's not super quiet. It's strong, powers multiple charging demands simultaneously. It's reliable and starts easy every time. It provides all powering needs for day to day off-grid cabin living. It's reassuring to have in case of emergency. It's an investment but a great value compared to others in the same category. It's worth it.

Solid unit

I like the fact that it starts delivering electricity after the engine starts and runs a few seconds instead if starting under a load. I use this generator to power my small cabin and it remains plugged into the 30 amp outlet. Similarly, it shuts down the electric before it shuts down the engine. I wish it had the wheel kit. Changing oil is impossible unless it is lifted. You will need to learn to adjust the valves yourself. 100 hours or six months is insane to be taking your generator into the shop

Just Purchased!

Just purchased WGen5300sc Generator. I installed the mounting feet and wheels. Added the engine oil, put gas in the tank, connected the battery for the electric starter. In the first try the generator fired right up. Hopefully, I won't have any future problems 🤞

Great features

The WGen5300DFC is a excellent generator! I like that it is a dual fuel generator that I can use gas or propane and I also like the push button for electric start/stop and remote key fob to electric start/stop it from inside the house. Would be even nicer if it came with the wheel kit!

Nicely designed generator

I bought this unit and it arrived on Tuesday, September 8. It looked really solidly built. I had a Durostar which worked OK but this unit is the next level. Very heavy made of heavy-duty materials. With dual fuel and electric start this is a good backup generator to have in case of prolonged outage. The unit was tagged with the appropriate instructions and cautions. A lot of thought went into designing this unit. As an Engineer, I appreciate the level of design detail and highly recommend the product. I am yet to use it but I can almost assume that it would work as designed.

a waste of money

I bought this generator a little over a month ago only used it about six times and now it doesn't want to work won't come on by the key fob or the start button or to pull handle it was the biggest waste of my money.

great features and price.

Just bought this and reviews and people I talked with said it is well worth the price. It also can be operated with propane and that interested me as you cannot always get gasoline during certain times.
