I purchased a duel fuel Westinghouse generator 5300KW after many comparisons of other manufacturers. I'm very happy I did. This particular model is very well constructed and serves my purpose as a backup for utility loss.This generator is propane or gas and I currently only use the propane option.It will power most of your household needs with no problem. Buy a Westinghouse, You'll also be happy you did!

It was easy to assemble. It starts easy. The battery charger wasn't in the bag. I don't like the starter button-the old hold down until started is better. I don't like the remote. If you shutdown with the remote and don't go turn the gas off, the gas may leak while it's turned off.

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.

We just bought this 5300DF a few days ago. Assembly was very easy. We used the remote start on the first start and it fired right up with no issues at all. The dual fuel is what sold me on this unit but the fact that I don't have to dislocated my shoulder to get it started was a bonus for me. I'm very happy with my purchase.

I recently brought this unit as a emergency backup for our house when we have power outages. One of the best features on this unit is the dual fuel system. I filled up my gas cans and propane tanks, I didn't worry about not having enough fuel or running out. Very easy to operate and the remote start makes it so easy to start that my wife ran it while I was gone, no need to pull start.

Bought it to run during Florida storms. Used once and ran great. Stored it after and was having issues starting it again. Electric switch seems to be the issue with some of these electronic start generators. I do love that it has a remote start so no need to go outside in the bad elements to start the product.

The main reason I bought this was because of the duel Fuel. I wanted something in the event of a power outage that would be large enough to run the essential things needed in the house. It Also make a nice addition when working out on the property, allowing me to use my corded tools when I need them. Propane is easy to store, transport and has a long shelf life. One downfall was the mounting brackets for the wheels were bent when I received it. I had read other reviews and notice this to be a problem, maybe not on the manufacture but for sure on the shipping company. When you pay this type of money for a product you expect it to be in perfect shape when you receive it. In all I am satisfied with the generator and would recommend it.

A foot of snow fell & we lost power for a day. Had a lot of food to worry about, but mainly concerned about the sump pump not working in basement, which would have caused a flood situation. Very happy to find one of these available, & the instructions were simple & well explained.

Bought this just in time for hurricane sally, delivered on Friday, storm the following Tuesday. So glad I got it. Power went off Tuesday night and I had not even had time to put it together yet. So, in the dark with only a flash I put it together. Had it up and running in about 10 minutes. Ran it 24hrs without a hitch. Thanks for a great product and saving the day.

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.
