It is very heavy duty and everything came just like it looked on the website everything is just great, it came fast, and the coolest thing it even came with a remote so very excited that I have it now and who ever need or want a generator I highly recommend this generator it will change your life when a storm happen and the lights out it will power up your house all the way and you will feel the same comfort as if your lights was never off. So if you ever run across this generator get it I promise you won't be disappointed.!!!!

I searched for weeks for a medium-sized dual fuel electric start generator to replace my old pull start gasoline unit. The 5300DF fit the bill perfectly, arrived in great shape, and even (unlike competitors) fits in my 25" deep shed. Can't wait to see it perform!

Electric start is great especially with key remote key fob. Unboxed, put on feet and wheels, added oil - started right up on propane - let run 45 minutes. Next tried gas, first start ran very rough and stalled. Started back up and ran rough for about 2 minutes then smoothed out. Have run a couple times now since and starts right up and runs well. Ran under 50% and 25% load - worked great. Compact and easy maneuver.

I purchased this as a back-up power source for essential items during extended power outages. Started up first try, even has a remote start! I love the option of dual fuel especially when gasoline can be hard to find during mass outages. The only thing I wish it had was wheels and a handle which I had to purchase seperately and I would say are a must have. It is not light!

Received the Westinghouse WGen5300DFc Generator and immediately unboxed and assembled. Easy on the pocketbook comparatively to what you get. Easy assembly - took maybe 10 to 15 minutes to install wheels, foot pads and handle (ordered this separately). Looking forward to testing dual fuel and the push-button start and remote start. Ordered a companion manual transfer switch. Easy to maneuver and move around. Choose the dual fuel so that in the event of an outage, would have propane tanks on hand – or could use gas if needed. It looked and felt solid.

I've only had this generator for less than a month, but I ran it to make sure it would run what I needed when we loose power. The electric start work great and just incase I'm not home my wife will be able to start it with out trying to use the recoil. I did a lot of reading on generators and Westinghouse was rated one of the best and had most of the features, electric start, duel fuel, gas gauge, low oil shut off, and 240v. that I was looking for. So far I'm pleased wit my purchase and would recommend this unit.

Purchase just a few days ago and got it started on gasoline today. Will try propane another day. Initially could not find the remote start. Finally discovered it attached to the pull start handle. Stated right up without a hitch with electric start and remote start. Very pleased with this generator.

I bought this after a horrible storm hit us for 3.5 days! I was fortunate to have electricity when others didn't. So I thought it would be hard for me to learn how to operate since I'm a single 57 year old woman. Piece of cake! I chose to use propane. It was so quiet and no worries on leaving stored for carborater problems later. I didn't have problems connecting the tank either! Just read the instructions guys!

I am running on propane at elevation (6,200 ft) and am using a long (75 foot) 10 gage power cord. I was concerned that this service would be close to the capacity of this generator - but it worked just fine powering my well and tankless water heater. Started right up also.

It really works well for us. I love the remote start that is a must. It is not super quiet but also not obnoxiously loud either. Easily can put up with the noise. I bought two of them so I could run them in parallel to 50 amp service. That did the trick when we needed it in our 5th wheel.
