Fantastic machine

I purchased the WG5300DFv model and the instructions were very well done and easy to follow for the setup. I put gas in it and also connected propane, followed the starting instructions, and it fired right up on gas and then I switched to propane and all ran very well. I am excited about using my generator at our house and camp for backup power.

Great Value, comfort and peace of mind

We bought this while on camping vacation in Florida. We had been considering getting a generator that could power our camper when we were at campsites off the grid. This Westinghouse has a 30-amp plug-in for the camper, and will run our 15,000 Btu air conditioner and all appliances in our camper. As an added benefit, we can use it as a back-up for our freezer, refrigerator, and other things in our home. It was very easy to assemble and start. Runs a bit louder than we wanted, but the cost and LP/gasoline dual fuel option offers additional benefits. Looking for added peace of mind when camping or future storms.

Awesome very versatile generator!

Purchased this generator at a great price! Been eyeballing generators as a failsafe for power outages, not only is this a great option but with both gasoline and LP power along with 3 different plug styles this is the perfect “Swiss army knife” of a generator!

Wonderful generator

This generator has all the features I needed as a backup power for outages. When used with propane it takes a times to start the generator. Sound level is a little high from inside the house. The output power is good and stable. It's easy to roll out using the handle and wheels. You will need to prop up the generator to attach the wheels and fixed stand.

Easy to use and on wheels!

This generator is so easy to use. The quick start guide has simple step by step instructions to get started. Switching between gas and propane is a breeze. I love that it’s on wheels- it is very heavy so the handle and wheels are essential to moving it around.

Dual Fuel at a value price!

I am impressed with the thought put into the packaging, the components, and the instructions. Everything you need; tools to assemble, pre-measured oil to fill the crank case, funnel, and tube so you don't make a mess. Assemble took less than 5 minutes, and engine started on the first try.

Well built.

Good build quality. Solid frame and this model has a lot of bang for the buck. Easy set up and straightforward to use. I will be using this generator to power a 1hp deep well pump. I plugged a power hungry circular saw in it and the noise barely increased. This is not obnoxiously loud, which is a big plus.
