Nice to have backup power now with our Westinghouse power generator.With electric start and remote start/stop with auto choke this unit has all the bells, and whistles I was looking for.Started right up, and maintained the circuits I need when utility power is down.Linked with a transfer switch it's really a simple operation to be back up, and running in a matter of minutes.Very well laid out control panel,and unit is easy to move around with the optional wheel/handle kit that I highly recommend.I researched several different units and really feel the westinghouse units are a very good purchase considering features, and price point.

Bought the generator when we had a huge power outage and the ability to switch between propane vs gas came in a clutch as gasoline became scant and propane was easier to find. Ran a fridge, a protable ac, and a few chargers and lights. They lasted 8 hours with a full standard propane tank.

Just bought this generator for a emergency backup. Tested out just as expected. Hooked up a transfer switch to run my well in addition to two house circuits. I hooked up to propane tank. Started right up. Tested it on some 110volt items to start. Then plugged it into the transfer switch. Switched to 240v. Ran perfectly, ran my deep water 1hp well pump, and two refrigerator’s, deep freezer and several 60 watt lights with ease. Only complaint, didn’t come with a wheel kit. Tried to order one and was told not available. So I had to buy a universal generator wheel kit, which still had to be modified to fit. Other than that couldn’t be happier.

Finally bought a portable generator. ‘Been wanting one for many years……………. I’ve done a lot of homework, reading reviews, watched youtube videos and I decided on this brand and model. It’s Westinghouse model WGen5300DF. 5300 watts (lower using propane), so just enough to power the necessary items during power outage such as my gas furnace, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, gas hot water heater, TV, Modem and WiFi. The most important here is heat. When power goes out in the winter time and we don’t have heat we will have to stay in the hotel as it gets too cold inside the house. So now I’m good when power goes out. So far Im very impressed with it. Product quality is really good, features are outstanding. Has a 3 year warranty. Noise per manual is 68db so its about as loud as my gas powered high pressure washer. Not that bad. It’s dual fuel (gas & propane) electric start, small & compact, also has remote control for remote start. What a nice feature. Came complete with oil, funnel, spark plug wrench, etc. I added the oil as instructed, hooked up my propane tank, pushed the remote start and it started right up. Highly recommended. Im installing a Transfer Switch next. I plan on buying a generator tent or build a dog house with cooling fans so I can safely operate it during snow or rain. If anyone has any tips on how to further reduce the noise level kindly share please. I don’t want to bother my neighbors. I’ve watched youtube videos & so far the most effective is just 4 plywood sheets angled to the ground. Thanks!

Remote start has made my life so much better. No longer do I have to wake my wife up to brave the cold and start the generator. Dual fuel is so easy to swap between. Very long run time on a single tank. The included oil funnel is nice as well as the battery charger.

After researching different generators in the market, I chose this model because i can use either gasoline or propane, plus it has electric start. The rating of 5,300 running watts is sufficient to run all the essential appliances for a few days in case of power disruption. However, this model doesn't come with the wheels. I now have to search to find a pair to fit.

I bought this generator because it's dual fuel and the size range I need. It pull starts easy, propane is really simple to setup, and the operating/maintenance manual is thorough. I will use this generator for occasion camping and emergency power use.

Bought following Hurricane Helene to replace generator that went out. Right size for my needs and liked dual fuel ( gasoline and propane). I liked the way it was packaged, the thorough preparation directions (made prepping easy), and the clear maintenance schedule provided. Started right up and now ready for next shorter or longer power outage.

I’ve been wanting a dual fuel generator for some time now the price was right and I purchased this Westinghouse 5300 DF. I plan to use it strictly with propane because of the convenience of storage and cost. I made this purchase because of electrical failures, especially during hurricanes.

I was looking for a mid-sized unit (less weight, lower cost) that was able to run the essentials, had a transfer switch outlet, dual fuel, and electric start. This generator checked all those boxes. It also comes with a remote (which I haven't tested yet, but could come in handy). So far, so good!
