Bought this for the power output on propane. The one I actually wanted is sold out. This one came close to checking all the boxes. This one has the power I was looking for, I didn't need the CO sensor as it will be placed in a detached garage 35ft from house for emergency power. And for some reason wheel kit not included, which is not great because cheaper models do include wheel kit. Overall happy would have preferred wheels over CO sensor but I got what I paid for.

I purchased this generator for power backup in my home. Ive used the propane fuel option on the generator for powering my portable AC unit during a power outage . It works just fine . Although I thought this generator came with wheels for mobility but I was wrong . I need to purchase a wheel kit. It does the job I needed it for .

One week after I took delivery we had a power outage. It powered all the essentials, fridge, freezer, furnace fan, sump pump, plus a few extras. Having the dual fuel and electric start makes it easy to operate. Had our electrician install a transfer switch and it worked great with that.

This unit has a clean sharp look and delivers a lot of bang for the buck. Love the propane option that lets me quickly respond to short-term power outages (2-9 hours) …just connect a propane bottle and fire it up. I like not having to worry about treating, draining or wasting left over gasoline, but the gas option is nice for more economical operations during long term multi-day power outages. This unit provides enough power to keep a 2000 square foot house in lights, plus run a few smaller appliances such as TV equipment, freezers, refrigerators, microwave and maybe a single burner on your electric cook stove. Not for operation of Central Heat & Air, large electric water heaters, dryers, ovens etc. Buy a bigger unit if you want to power those. I like that it is not too large so I can move it in place with confidence. Also stores nicely in smaller spaces unlike the larger models. A nice surprise was that it wasn’t as loud as I was expecting. Cons; This unit should have come with the Digital Data Center that provides real-time updates on maintenance information as many other Westinghouse models do, especially at this price. Shipping condition was unacceptable. As others have complained, my unit arrived and the box was in decent shape. But when I opened it, I found damage to the generator in three places. Two big dents on the frame and one on the control panel. I decided to keep it and work on the damage because these units have been hard to find. There should be an easy fix for this. Perhaps more packing material or better handling practice. For the life of me, I don’t understand why this is still a problem.

Generator arrived nicely packed with tools, oil, wheel kit, all easy to install and get ready. Surprise to me that a battery charger was included. Started this baby up in one second on propane, did the one hour break in and then put a load on and didn't miss a beat. I am impressed with the fit and finish and the rugged construction. Generator is easy to roll around and it is much quieter than anticipated. This product deserves five stars, i would highly recommend this product.

Small dent in frame on arrival. Bottom of box must have collapsed under the weight. The box was not sturdy enough for the weight of the machine. After the bottom gave out, the box had been turned on its side and the bottle of oil crunched. Wheel kit was fast and easy to install. Seems like a sturdy and well made product despite not being packed for individual delivery. It ought to have been sent on a small pallet with some light straps.

Purchased this for 3 reasons.. Remote start.. 240 volts and DUEL FUEL... My family camps out quite often and the duel fuel really caught my attention... Plus I use the 240 v when we have any power outages... The biggest thing that got my attention was it is a Westinghouse... Brand name.. thank you... Wayne Kincaid...

After the Oklahoma "Icenado" of Oct 2020 when we were w/o power for 4 days I determined to NEVER to BE a VICTIM & caught w/ my pants down. Thru heavy research I found the 5300DF (dual fuel) model the best match for our needs for a modest home w/ 5 people. It would be best for a large RV too. Westinghouse has the best ratio of Price Point, Power Output, best warranty, 1000s of 4+ star reviews & FREE delivery. Ordered it 1/12/21 & it was delivered 1/18/21. The setup is very easy. The nearest town is a 30min drive, so we're "out here". The Propane fuel option is really what sold me b/c it NEVER goes bad & you can hook the Generator to your home Propane tank by teeing off. I saw lots of people filling 5gal gas tanks to run generators at local stations. That ONLY works when the pumps have power. The Propane option is a no-brainer & is easier on my wife & daughters, esp. if you're using small 2gal tanks or a 100gal. The other PLUS is the REMOTE START FOB. You can turn it on from inside the safety of your home. It also has the push button start. I'm going to either install a transfer switch or install a breaker box interlock kit to run the generator directly into our house for emergency backup. We had neighbors w/o power & water for 10+ days in Oct. Family & friends in Texas were worse off during the Feb 2021 snow storm. The FACT that MOST of Texas was w/o power & H20 for 4-10 days is everyone's WAKE UP call that you're On your own. OYO. For my "off-grid" solar friends who were w/o power b/c of cloud cover & snow, the 5300DF will provide a better layer of confidence. You must be prepared cause we're in the Twilight Zone from now on. 2020 & 2021 was a trial-run.

I bought this my WGen5300dfv a week ago. I am still in the use and warm up period bur have had no problems. It runs perfectly on propane but I haven't ran it on unleaded yet. I bought it for emergency sump pump backup. After a yr or so I'll update this review. I don't expect issues. It runs smooth and is a touch quieter than my last one which was a little smaller than the Westinghouse.

This is the second Generater that I have bought in the last month. The brand was bigger. Started it up and it began to leak gas. Returned it and bought this one. The shipping company did a poor job getting to me. Was a little beat up. But after opening it up and putting it together I was impressed. It was easy to assemble and came with some nice extras, like the funnel that screws on to oil opening, small tool set to service it with. It seems to run well. I feel better having it in case of emergency.
