I've owned several generators from different manufacturers and find this Westinghouse 5300W 120/240V generator to have superior quality of manufacture and many features not found in this price range. It has dual fuel Gas/Propane and RV Plug with 240V Plug. It is almost as quiet as my inverter generator. It has 4.7 gal fuel tank and cast aluminum valve cover. I am RV living off the grid with 6kW solar power array and battery backup storage. The solar power provides 100% of my electric needs when sun light is available. This unit powers my RV with 120V for cloudy times. I will use this generator for backup power after my house is built. I highly recommend this unit.

I bought this the day after hurricane helene hit. We were without power for 15 days and this generator push through for us. Super easy to assemble and comes with very helpful instructions and great manual. Incredibly reliable and useful. We will be sticking with this generator for future storms, camping, and construction work. It comes with oil and that was super helpful. Love the wheels and handle and makes it easy to move. Also the buttons and visuals are easy to use.

I live in the North GA mountains, and we lose power frequently due to downed trees. A generator is a must for my area. Adding into the fact that I just brought home a medically fragile 8 month old from the hospital after a long 240 day stay who is on medical equipment that must be powered. I needed something reliable that will start up when I need it. The electric start along with the remote start is a great feature for me and my wife to be able to start this generator up in a moments notice for my son's equipment. This can not only power all of my son's needs but also many other items within my home during the event of an outage.

wgen5300df. arrived 1 1/2 weeks faster than promised. Box wasn't even damaged. All was complete and undamaged, looks great Hint before I instaled last wheel I laid it on its side to put in the oil. Works great on camper a/c with microwave at the same time. love the remote. When starting without auto start finding the choke to turn on then to get turned off after it fires is tricky. Going to ad a small piece of fuel tube on choke leaver so it will be easier to find. Best power and options for the money. Hint,,, to change the break in oil. Lift one side till the drain plug can be pulled w out dripping. screw in small clear fuel tubing check plug size for tube size, drain, then lift again to add oil. Charger was missing but not a big deal.

This generator is perfectly sized for our needs. I want to be able to have heat, water, and a functioning refrigerator when the power goes out, and this will efficiently do this for us. The dual fuel option allows us to be better prepared for longer outages without having to worry about going to the gas station every day or so. I took off one star because the packaging on this item is completely inadequate for shipping to the consumer. There is no padding between the heavy generator and the cardboard. This arrived dented in multiple places, with the cardboard ripped because of rubbing and impact. We would have exchanged it, but this model is impossible to find in stock right now. We tested it, and it seems to run fine, I hope the shipping impacts didn't cause any hidden damage that will show up after the return and warranty periods are up. Fantastic item, but Westinghouse should package it better.

I bought this generator because of the surprise power shut downs in my city. Having this generator provides such a sensed of security. I am not a large woman let alone strong, however this generator provides ease as a move it around and I am very comfortable pulling the cable. I did a lot of research before buying this unit and I am very happy with my decision.

I ordered this item on line and received it about a week later . the packaging was in good shape no dents or gouges . after prepping ,adding fuel and pressing the start button . it started with just a few cranks. because of the automatic choke warmed up and ran smooth. p.s. i will be adding the high altitude kit to add a little better fuel economy

I bought this on a quick decision, I live in North Carolina and we had just been hit with Hurricane Helene. No water, no power, didn't know when we would be getting it back either. A friend bought a couple of them and brought them up, so I bought it! I used it for a week, I only ran gas, haven't had the opportunity to try the propane gas yet.It was easy to start and the directions were all pretty straight forward and it ran well for the most part. Two things happened, first the oil stick does not seat right when you close it all the time, and one time oil sprayed out everywhere. I have to be very careful and check the seating of it. second is the feet vibrate right off of it! I keep having to tighten the screws but then they came loose a day and half later. Also the screws have to go from the Botton which is really hard to do, so it's kinda frustrating. Other then that its been fine. Of course its brand new and Ive used it for less then a week, so its kinda hard to tell how will be a year from now. That seems like a better time to review?

Have been wanting one for years, with doing a lot of research, this one seemed to check all of my boxes. One of the best features is that it can use propane as well gas. I love the feature of the electric start so I can use it to start and stop while in the house. Plan on building a housing for it so it can outside while in the rain and snow if needed.

My first Westinghouse generator/invertor (2200 watt) has served me well for over 5 years so upon deciding to add a larger unit I went with the 6500 watt dual fuel model. This is another great machine which arrived in perfect condition and was a breeze to assemble and put to work. Very happy with the Westinghouse brand.
