Easy for a first time user

Setup was very smooth and I'm not a handy person. I love that I can start up with a remote, electrical or pull cord. Powers most of my house using a switch when the power goes out occasionally. No issues at all. As most generators are it's very loud.

There's a lot to love about this generator!

I recently bought this generator due to power outages in the winter. I needed one that would run my water pump, and this one can do that. Living in the country means our roads are the last to be plowed. Therefore, a generator with fuel options works well. The fuel in the propane doesn't go rancid like with Gasoline and can be stored easily. I also love the ease with which I can move this unit around. The folding handle and large wheels keep it off the cold ground, making it easy to move into place when I need to use it.

Extremely Happy

We bought the Westinghouse to prepare for Beryl, best decision ever. Easy to set up, starts right away, we were left without power for days. Had it running none stop without a problem. Had out fridge, fans, charge phones, used the microwave, toaster, griddle etc.

Perfect backup

Owned 2 weeks, Easy to put together. Nema14-30 connector made it easy to connect. Fired up on first try with propane. A bit "husky sounding" but that to be expected at this power output. Dual fuel allows long term backup fuel storage with gas a convenient option during prolonged power outages.

Easy assembly

I just received this yesterday, assembled and started the break-in process. More compact than I thought. Hardest part is adding the oil. The funnel was helpful but could be improved. Started easily, even with pull start. The electric start was major reason for purchase. My wife can easily set this up and start if I'm not available. Also much quieter than we thought too. So far, so good

Very impressive so far!

I had been comparing dual fuel generators for quite awhile, and the 5300 ticked all the boxes for us: dual fuel, electric start (we're getting older.....), able to hook up to house via transfer switch if we choose, and price in our budget. It arrived in perfect shape, and we had feet and wheels attached in no time. We're excited to test it out in a "pretend power outage" in the near future.

features that are so handy.

This generator replaced one that was half this size and had so many handy and different features. It started right out of the box. All I had to do was put on the footpads and wheels. It came with oil and a funnel. I like the fact that it runs on propane as well. It`s just what I needed!

Great features

I just picked this up from the store and I got oil in it and started it and I am pleased with the electric start as well as the remote start and it seems fairly quiet compared to others. I would like to leave a performance review but I haven't had it long enough to give my opinion on that.

A must-have item!

This generator was a highly sought-after item in Texas after the big winter storm in February 2021, especially for those like me who waited to buy it until the tax-free weekend in Texas in April. Luckily, I found one available online. The shipping was quick, and the generator was very easy to set up. I think this is a good product especially for people who may be intimidated about buying and operating an emergency generator. Don't worry. It's easy! I haven't needed it in an emergency yet, but so far everything with this product seems to be great. I will be ready for the next big storm.

Wonderful generator

I was running it during 2020 freeze in Houston , Texas and that kept my house warm and no issues with the pipes at all. Running it already for 4 years and run flawlessly . During Beryl was kind of hard to find gas and propane tanks and decided to upgrade to a 11500TFC new one just arrived yesterday. I never had issues with the 5300DF and hopefully will not have issues with the new one. The 5300DF run my whole house except of AC unit but bought a portable ac unit a window unit and used it during Beryl without any problems, 3 tv's running 2 refrigerators, central fan, all the plugs and lights. Overall extremely satisfied with it. Also 4 friends of mine bought the 5300DF after my recommendation and they have only good thoughts about it.
