This is a great buy. I have used many generators over the years on Job sites, but I am really happy with this one. It is powerful enough to more than supply all my saws and tools, yet it rolls with only one person handling it. I really like the propane option. It has less fumes, it is less expensive to run, and I don't have to worry about draining gas out if I don't use it for a few months.

Bought as part of my birthday gifts. Quality finish. Quality features. Will run essential appliances to keep my family safe and comfortable next power outage. Due to my schedule, I have not started any break-in, but from the exhaustive research I’ve done and networking with other generator owners, and of course the price of this precision machine, I couldn’t be happier! I look forward to a solid relationship with Westinghouse.

We purchased this after a recent power outage and had researched top dual fuel generators and this was at the top of the list. It was very reasonably priced compared to other generators of the same size. The dual fuel feature is really important as we used propane to run it! Works great and kept our necessary appliances running flawlessly! Great purchase!

We bought this during an ice storm when we lost power for a few days. We were surprised that this was in stock at the time and snatched one up. We immediately brought it home and set it up in no time at all. We were able to plug in our two refrigerators, a freezer, portable heater, electric blanket, some lamps, etc. Worked perfectly! We ran ours with propane, although gas can be used with an easy switch. We will look into hooking it up to our main breaker for future use. Highly recommend!!

I bought this 6 weeks ago and I've already used it twice. Works great and isn't very loud. Easy to understand setup instructions. Haven't run it on propane yet but on gas it's very good. Only down side is the weight. 120lbs empty and around 150lbs full of gas and oil.

Every generator does the same thing... provides power, some stronger than others but all in all that's it. So I wanted to focus my review on other aspects such as build quality, ease of use, and the manual. First the build quality: this is a sturdy machine made of quality materials. It performs every task its advertised to do without any problems. It is a bit noisy but with it outside and me inside you can bearly hear it. Ease of use: every switch, indicator, or fill port is clearly labeled making this machine very easy to operate, with that being said there aren't a bunch of switches to confuse you either. and if there's something you have a question on there is a detailed manual for anything you need, which brings me to my third point. The Manual: I am an aircraft mechanic, in this job we have to follow detailed manuals to get our job done correctly for safe flight. these provided manuals are laid out very similarly to the ones I use every day which make any questions, troubleshooting, maintenance, operation a breeze when reading through it. With all that being said I would defiantly Recommend this product to anyone looking for a good generator.

I like how compact this unit is and still has room for maintenance of the unit, pretty easy to do all necessary maintenance. Easy start up on both Gas and Propane,2 easy pulls. So far this unit seems solid, doing the recommended break in. My buddy's liked the unit as well, Would recommend.

I purchased a WGEN5300DFcv portable generator a few days ago and I've been very impressed with it so far. After the initial setup, it started easily and ran flawlessly for a few minutes. My initial test was using gasoline. I'll try the propane sometime but I need to purchase a propane tank first. I'm impressed with the quality and now I'll be ready the next time we lose power. I also plan to use it when I used corded power tools on the areas of my property that are too far for a cord to reach. Great product!

The Westinghouse 5300 dual fuel is what I wanted. It was priced very reasonably for all of the features that it has. The directions were very good. It was very easy to assemble. I put the oil in the engine and install the propane line that was supplied. Hooked the 20 lb propane bottle to the line. Turned to fuel selector to propane and flipped the on/off switch to on. Opened the propane tank valve. Put the choke on start and the generator started on the 2nd pull of the engine pull start cord.

The instructions are very clear to follow and there are minimal components to assemble to get it started. The price is one of the best I’ve seen and it is worth every penny. Feel a lot more secure with this generator for any power outages in the future. It is a must buy. Highly recommend!
