I bought this 4 months ago so I would have it in the event of power outage. I finally unboxed it today and got it running and broke in. We are expecting extreme temperatures this week so I want to be prepared unlike February 2021. I am using propane currently and it seems to function just fine. It's extremely easy to operate.

I bought this generator, showed it to my brother and he ordered one when he got home that evening. He already has one of another brand but loved the features on this one so much, he couldn't do otherwise. I am so impressed with this equipment and almost hope for a power outage...but not really. It is awesome.

The dual fuel option is great! I don't have to worry about gasoline left in the tank going bad after a few months and clogging up the carburetor. Instead, if there's a power outage I can just run it as needed from my BBQ LP gas tank and usually that will suffice for normally short power outages in our locale. If they are longer than expected, I can then easily switch to gasoline and add a fuel stabilizer after use. Easy to set up. Goes faster and easier after I read the manual. The extra time, I found was worth it. I am very mechanically adept and able to repair almost anything, but I learned a lot from the excellently written manual.

Last year hurricane Ian out of electricity almost 2 weeks, lost freezer goods, using candles flashlights, no fans really miserable. But not now this generator will make a difference if needed. Came boxed very good condition. Assembled wheels and front pads 15 minutes, added oil that came with it. Hooked up propane tank followed quick start reference guide and it fired right up. Hopefully I never need to use it but I’m now ready in case. A good feeling.

I just rercieved this and look forward to using it. I have a 100 gallon propane tank ordered so we don't have to mess with gas in a hot generator. I also have a electrician coming to install a transfer switch. Didn't receive the remote FOB in package

The generator arrived quickly in great shape practically ready to use. Every thing I needed to get it up and running came with it (except gas of course) It came with the oil and a handy funnel that screwed on the oil filler hole which made for an easy no mess job of adding the oil. It also came with the propane regulator valve if you choose to use propane as your fuel source. I'm going to keep gas and propane on hand. The wheels and feet were an easy installation with the handy wrench included. I also liked the fact that I didn't have to bolt on the cables to the battery like some I've purchased before. The positive and negative cables had a push connect that made for a fast and simple installation. The instructions are easy to follow. After getting it setup and adding fuel it cranked right up using the included remote fob. it ran a little rough for about a minute but after that she ran smooth as silk. It should be great for what I'll need it for. I just need to keep a freeze, refrigerator, a few lights and a TV going during a power outage.

Day late and a dollar short.. lost power for nearly a week over Easter and knew THEN we needed a generator. The 5300 dual fuel fit the price point and the watts. Now we are prepared for the next outage, which will NOT come because we bought the generaltor.LOL

I shopped around for quite a while and prices do vary with retailers. Regardless, no other generator could touch the features of the wGen with the dual fuel and remote start. I’m using it for a whole house partial cutover box. Be careful if ordering a separate wheel kit, that you order the correct one, and print out assembly instructions for the wheel kit before it arrives.

I bought this generator to replace my old generator on the fifth day of a power outage. I was able to unbox, assemble, add oil and, startup on propane within fifteen minutes. The propane feature was extra helpful because the power was restored that night and I didn't have to worry about gas sitting in the tank until its next use. The LED display on the operator panel is very convenient to provide operator feedback. I know I am well prepared for the next power outage.

CAUTION: Follow the directions! I'm not kidding. Get the manual out and follow the directions. The generator, once everything is followed, started immediately. I would recommend it to anyone. Bought this to power up my well and it does a fantastic job.
