Great Westinghouse wGen5300dfv Generator

We bought the generator during a power outage at our home. We took the unit out of the box, put gas and oil in it and had power to our house in just a few minutes. The unit stared the first pull of the cord. I am very pleased with our purchase. Westing house has the best products!

Very solid generator

I bought this same model a year ago and decided to get another one because I liked it so much. Very easy to use and great features. I used the first one at my remote, off-grid cabin and it is great. I had to change the LP nozzle for the high altitude but the support team was very helpful. This one is staying at my home for emergency backup purposes. My neighbor bought one as well. I did my homework on these models and they were one of the highest rated ones and the price point was excellent

Great Size for Power & Dual Ability

Just bought this and waiting to use so can't comment on functionality but can on size in comparison to storage area in front of the RV and capacity to safely run 30Amps for outdoor needs! my biggest concern was getting a unit that would fit in front storage space and easy to pull out. It's heavy but not too heavy that a single gal couldn't put a little muscle into it and get it out and running quickly.

Compact design

I bought yesterday, unboxed today. I'm happy it came with a bottle of oil with the exact amount so the level was between high and low. the wheels and rubber feet were easy to assemble. it came with a wrench, and spark plug wrench, and adaptor for using propane.

Great options!

I haven't had an opportunity to actually start my generator up, but I'm excited about all the possible features available for fuel and power sources. It looks to be solid construction. I look forward to enjoying all of its' benefits of being ready for the storms!

EASY TO GET UP AND RUNNING

The Westinghouse dual fuel generator we bought works great. It was easy to get it up and running. Very minor assembly (basically putting the wheels and rubber boots on the frame) and adding the engine oil was very easy since Westinghouse provides everything you need to do it, even a funnel with a hose for the oil. The instructions for setting it up and putting it into operations are simple and easy to understand. Works great on both gas and propane, easy to switch between the two. No problem to operate for my wife or me.

Duel fuel

I just got this unit after having to leave my home for 2 days because of a snow storm, so I decided it was about time I bought a generator for the next storm and I espcially like the duel fuel capability. I looked on-line and the ratings were very good and there were so many I decided to go with yours. Honestly I hope it's one of those deals where once you buy it you never need it, but I'm pretty sure that is not going to happen. Westinghouse has always been a good product so that aided me in making my decision.

Hurricane Game Changer!

Purchased after Hurricane Helene to help us run appliances and some fans for power outages. Hurricane Milton arrived, I am so happy I had made the purchase. It completely saved our food, allowed us to get some rest with some cool air, and also was used to shop vac some water that we had in our laundry room.

Life saver!

Bought this before hurricane Helene and didn’t need it because my power didn’t go out for more than 30 minutes. I actually thought about bringing it back but good thing I kept it because two weeks later hurricane Milton was a direct hit on my town and power was out for four days. This generator saved us from being miserable because outdoor temps reached 90° after the hurricane.

Impressed

Bought another brand and it wouldn't start. Returned it and bought the Westinghouse WGen5300DFcv. It was very easy to set up. Was the same price as the other brand and had more features and more running watts and peak watts. It started on the very first pull. It has falf the noise of my old generator and vibration is minimal. I ran two freezers, a refrigerator, and a couple of lights and a fan with no trouble. It looks sturdy and it looks good.
