The generator is as expected. The power is as advertised, at times maybe even a little more. We run only propane and it was super easy to get set up. Easy start, runs fairly quiet compared to others I have used. Only two complaints are that the oil needs to be replaced very frequently at 50 hours of use and the oil drain is above the frame of the generator. This causes oil to spill on the frame and run across rather than fall down into the collection tray. Very poor placment. Otherwise, great product.

The layout of the controls are easy accessible and instructions on operation and set up are easy to follow.I have only done a general start up to check out my generator for initial operation, started up first pull ran smoothly and isn’t very loud. I have not tested under load yet. I’m empress at this time.

I live in the hurricane zone in Louisiana so it's important to be prepared. This generator seems to fit the bill. It's a small package, but delivers the right amount of power for us to connect to our transfer switch that will run most items in our house when the power goes out.

I upgraded from a gasoline only generator to this dual fuel unit. It was well packed and took only a few minutes to unpack it, put the wheels and feet on and add the oil. Started on the second pull and ran smoothly. I have only tested at 3600 watts so far on both 120v and 240v and the generator handled it with no problem and almost no change in the voltage. I really like the versatility of the generator having the option of using either 240v or full power at 120v.

Haven’t used this yet, but we bought it because we borrowed a Westinghouse 5300 just Haven’t used it yet, but we bought this machine because we borrowed a Westinghouse 5300 just like it to get us through a power failure and it worked really well. Ran two fridges, fans, TV & lights and still had power to spare. Easy to start and it ran 9 hours on a 20 lb. tank of propane . I highly recommend this machine.

Have only run for an hour so far, but easy to assemble and run. The included oil funnel is terrible, recommend using an automatic transmission type funnel. Unit is louder than anticipated but will help to remind you to keep it an appropriate distance from home or tent to avoid exhaust fumes. Test run on propane with no load used about 1lb. propane for an hour.

I bought this generator when I was pregnant with my now 2 year old because a hurricane was coming our way. That hurricane didn't hit us, and we kept the generator in the garage. Our power just went out Monday July 8, 2024 and we were without power for 5 grueling days! We pulled out our generator and it saved us from the heat. We plugged up a window air conditioner, 1 refrigerator, 2 metal floor fans, 8 cell phones, rechargeable flashlights, 2 ipads, ear buds, a lap top, and 8 of us slept in our game room together. My brother and sister in law were so happy when they heard us plug up the generator (they live next door), and they came knocking at our door asking if we turned on the air conditioner yet. We were so happy that the westinghouse generator kept us cool for these past 5 days especially since we have a special needs child with a 2 heart defects and cerebral palsy. She can't handle the heat. I really want a bigger generator because we wanted to plug up more things, but we plugged up what we could to stay comfortable. If we plugged up too many things the generator would make noises and turn off. We did have extension cords with surge protectors. With everything plugged up we had to put gas in every 11 hours or so. We had 5 bottles of 5 gallon gas cans and literally camped out in our gameroom until our power came back on.

After a 7-hour blackout on a 100-plus-degree day, watching my two-year-old daughter trying to sleep in a 90 degree bedroom I was done. Bought this generator the next day and it's just what we needed. Obviously can't run the entire house, but will get us by through a California Central Valley summer I'm sure will bring us regular blackouts. Easy to operate and the dual fuel option, and multiple 120V outlets made this a no-brainer for the price

I bought this as my first ever generator and I am pleased so far with it. Haven't had a reason to actually use it yet but I am happy that it can run on gas OR propane and have enough power for my needs. It is easy to set up and the instructions are clear in the manual. I would recommend.

This Westinghouse - WGen5300DFv seemed to have the best value out there. It is well built and I love the option to use propane or gas. It was easy to assemble the wheels and supports. The engine oil was also easy to add with the oil tube provided. They have covered all the bases well!
