Fairly simple to set up and get going. 3 things I didn't love: (1) I started it for the first time in my driveway which has a very, very small incline. Because the gas line comes out one side of the tank, and I had that side at a higher elevation, wouldn't start at first. Turned unit around, and it started. Maybe the tank needs more slope. (2) the battery connector blocks prevents easy access to oil dip stick; and (3) screwing dipstick back in is a little difficult - hard to get threads perfectly aligned. Other than these 3 things, I think it's a very cool and appears to be good product. Hope I never need it!

We were so relieved when the new Westinghouse Generator came after we lost our power after Hurricane Beryl. We like the idea of the dual fuel and plan to use propane as we think the older generator we had stopped working after being gummed up by gasoline, even though we used the best gas and additives. We can easily hook it up to a propane canister and be ready.

My generator, the first one I ever had, was installed on the day a major snowstorm was forcast. At 12 AM a tree fell down and knocked out the power, which left me with no heat. I was so surprised at how easy it was to roll the generator out of my garage, plug it in and use the remote start to get it started. I flipped the F switch up, which was set for my furnace and I was able to stay warm until the power was restored. I was also able to have some lights and my refrigerator on. Thank you for a great product.

Just bought this dual fuel WGen5300 a few weeks ago, just in time for a huge storm. I hooked it directly into my all house manual transfer switch. Using propane, it powered the whole house(did not try electric dryer which would likely exceed). Worked amazing. So nice to have a propane option that will last 10+ hours per tank. We can run gasoline to last longer, be more efficient for longer outages...but the propane burns cleaner, smells less, and is a little less noisy. Great options! Propane fired right up! Gas did not, however "moving the fuel to open" switch at the rear of the unit was not in the super nice "quick start" guide. Once I turned that in, gasoline fired right up, too. Hopefully this lasts a long time!

Purchased this unit 6/14/23 to be prepared for hurricane season in FL. I installed a transfer switch to use with the unit and I’m very happy with the generator. It is easy to use, labeled very well and we love the wireless start. The only reason I did not give a 5 star rating is that Westinghouse doesn’t sell a wheel kit separately. The unit is very heavy and I wanted to buy a wheel kit. I can not find one for this generator. Thankfully we don’t need to move it a long distance. If I were to buy again I would consider buying a unit that comes with the wheels.

We just had a 12-hour power outage thanks to hurricane Zeta and I'd finally had enough of hoping our fridge and chest freezer full of food wouldn't spoil every time we have a major outage so I shopped around and selected this Westinghouse. I especially like the dual fuel so I can get started with my spare propane tanks which never spoil. For long outages, I can go get gas or use the 20 gallons from my truck. It's not as large or heavy as I expected which is great. The fold-out handle makes it much easier to move than I thought it would be. Very easy to set up, filled with oil, connected battery, hooked up to LP tank and it fired right up. Much quieter than I expected as well, though certainly far from silent. I like all the options 120/240V, transfer switch ready, push-button start/stop, remote start/stop. I do NOT look forward to using it during the next power outage, but I do feel much better knowing I have a solid power source for when it does happen.

I began set-up today with professional assistance, an electrician was initiating all procedures in the manual. Unfortunately, there was an updated manual that we didn't have. The setup process caused a small part to malfunction making the generator inoperable. Hoping that the small part will make a difference and it will eventually function.

I bought this back In June 2023 and Im glad I did.I just got a chance too use it this month August,this generator is amazing and it is duel fuel or propane the cool thing about this generator is it has a remote control that you can stand inside while the generator is outside 20 feet from your house, it's suppose too be from your house and still use the remote too start the generator and it has a charger plug in too charge the battery.Iam so happy with my purchase and it works EXCELLENT.

I just received the product, and so far it looks pretty good. I am missing two pieces in the box, so make sure to check. I am currently trying to get a hold of Westinghouse to get those the missing pieces sent to me. I will update if I have success.

I got this for a gift and had not opened it because I did not need it. We lost power and unboxed and connected propane tank and it started on second crank. Love the electric start and the dual fuel. One of the best gifts I have ever received. Wish it had wheels because at 70 it is hard to move.
