I bought this item two years ago to have on hand. I used it one time and it worked great. I needed to use it again durning our last snow storm (Jan 2023). It worked for an hour, I heard a "pop" and I haven't been able to get it to work again. I'm really hoping it's a simple fix. As it is still under warrenty, I will file for that. I will update this review after that.

We settled on Wesinghouse WGen5300DFv after reading a lot of reviews of various generators. This turned out to be a good choice. This model provides a winning balance of power, features, quality and price. It is well engineered, works reliably, and has a clear user manual. I am highly satisfied with this purchase and would recommend this generator to others.

I have been reviewing generators for awhile and after reading reviews, price and features, I purchased this generator. I purchased this product seven days ago and finally was able to unbox today. I had no damage to the product when unpackaged. All I had to do was put on the wheels, two front rubber supports that it sits on and add oil. I attached it to propane, choked it and after three pulls it started right up. I checked the electricity output and the output was there. I hope I don't ever need it for backup power but I will sure have it if needed. The generator was actually quieter than I had thought it might be when running. Even my wife said that it was quieter than she had anticipated.

Acquired for hopefully occasional use during storms that affect traditional power. Needed to provide power to deep water well pump and equipment generally found in garage including refrigerator and freezer. Started right up using propane. Appears solid. Not totally impressed with the plastic choke lever. Adding oil is messy and ultimately results in a overfill.

I just bought this a week ago so I haven't had to use it yet. I bought it for emergency purposes since the power failures of last February. I bought the duel fuel because it's possible to store propane for long periods of time whereas gasoline has a limited "shelf life."

I bought this last month, but; I have not had a cause to use it as yet. I started it up and tested for a half hour and it seemed to work ok. Being able to use propane and/or gasoline is a bonus in that you don't have to mess with gas and have to remove the unused portion from the tank. I don't imagine that I will need it often, just for emergency power outages. One drawback is it only having 2 regular outlets for power. My previous generator had 4.

Very nice product, easy to setup and use. Had some issues at the first start as it would not run, but did some investigation online and finally was able to start it. It runs perfectly and I like the wheel options for easy handling and maneuvering. I like the product overall.

I won this generator at a Hurricane Expo! The unit came inclusive with all the necessary extra parts. Very happy with the dual fuel option. Nice compact size and easy start for a female. Wheels make the unit easy to store and move when necessary. Instructions for operation/maintenance of the unit are very easy to follow. My portable generator is a GREAT relief for the upcoming hurricane season.

Purchased this generator during a recent outage and it saved the day. Setup was a breeze. Added gas and away it went. Easily powered two refrigerators, freezer, lamps and several small appliances. Most impressive was getting a full 14 hour run time out of a tank of gas. Highly recommend.

I liked the Dual Fuel option on this model and easy starting when you fellow their manual. the generator was not any louder then a lawn mower, in fact it was quieter. I run my unit on propane so I don't know what the gas option would sound like. The size of unit is very maneuverable for the output of power it produces I have a WGEN5300DFV I am very satisfied with my purchase.
