I bought this to have peace of mind in the event of an emergency when power goes out. Luckily we haven't had to use it yet, but I am very pleased with our purchase. It has nice features and I like the dual fuel source of gas or propane. Whenever I test it, it always starts with ease. .

We are very happy with this purchase. Generator came undamaged and build quality/fit and finish are great (this is a quality device). Compared to similar output units with similar features from other manufacturers the price was outstanding. The duel fuel option is awesome as a backup fuel source. The options for power output delivery are diverse and will allow for backup power given most any situation. The wheel and handle kit was also included in this package which was a huge bonus as this is a heavy unit. Again, very very happy with the purchase and am sure that it will provide us with many years of peace of mind.

Generator seems great so far, we've only taken it for a "test drive" (haven't run at full load capacity yet). We really wanted the dual-fuel feature and one without an inverter, and this one checked all the boxes at a great price, especially for the capacity! Easy to set up, easy to start. It is loud but it's on par with what you'd expect for a generator this size. Seems well made and will hopefully prove easy to repair should anything go awry with it down the road.

We just purchased the 5300DFcv portable generator today so we haven't had a chance to use it yet. We purchased based on previous positive experiences with Westinghouse products as well as customer reviews. We'll do a test run tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well!

Of all the products I researched this was by far the biggest bang for the buck. Living in Texas after February snowstorm of 2021 I needed something to take care of the essentials. The power and length of time I'm looking for are easily covered by this generator. I'll also be looking at a travel trailer this year so this will take care of that need as well.

I got this model because of the dual fuel options. Having ability to hook up propane has added a great feeling of security. I primarily purchased to run my mom’s oxygen condenser during outages. It’s perfect having that extra margin of available fuel.

The only issue with the generator was that during the time I used it it revved up twice (surged). However, after turning the generator off and restarting it, this resolved. Overall, the generator is reliable. It got me through two hurricanes. I highly recommend it!

worked very well during the storm. may we make a suggestion for the oil gage , in the future change the color from yelleo to see the gage as oil is light color and could not figure out how much oil was in tank, changing color of the inner tip will help

I bought this two days ago and I’m glad I did. It really stood up in the aftermath of an ice storm. We were able to plug in our refrigerator, heaters and other appliances to last us over 3 days non stop. I would highly recommend this generator during emergencies. It really held up to its promise and I’m glad we purchased it when we did.

We bought our generator to provide peace of mind for power outages here in Southwest Florida. After Hurricane Ian we realized a reliable and name brand generator was essential for restoring temporary power. After a lot of research, we chose the WGen5300DFcv. It was a price we could afford and a brand name we could trust. Unpacked, added oil and gas and it started after 3 pulls. We are not wishing for another Ian, but I feel good about being better prepared for future outages now.
