Great purchase

I have just 1 week with him and I am delighted, the noise level is much lower than what I have usually heard, his way of driving is practical and it is not complicated to operate. It is something that without hesitation I would recommend that you buy it.

Power for my needs

Just purchased this today 9/5/22. After a little help getting it into the truck (It’s solid), got this generator home, and what a breeze of easily assembling the wheels and mounts—took 10 minutes. I’ll be running non-ethanol gas to be on the safe side. Competing in various cookoffs across the country, I am excited because of its dual fuel feature. As you know, some cooks may take quite a bit of time, and in the event that I do run out of gas that transition to propane to not lose temperature and continue to cook. I’m excited to see if it works out for the best. Regardless, I feel this is a solid purchase for anyone needing power needs.

Powerful, love the switchable fuel sources.

I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but the setup is so easy and user-friendly, I'm actually excited to lose power and try it out! Being able to switch between propane and gasoline is such a clever idea. Only wish it had an electric start in conjunction with the pull-start.

My first generator purchase.

We lose power about 6 times a year here and I decided I was tired of it. I googled generator ratings and the Westinghouse was at or near the top of all of them. I have needed it twice already and it ran great, I haven't tried it on propane yet will before long.

Easy to use

Purchased during a power outage. Very easy setup, with good quality tools included. Generator started on the first pull, and worked well for the 24 hours our power was out. Good sized fuel tank, giving long run times between fill ups. Being able to use propane as another fuel source is a great feature!

Dual Fuel

I bought this generator (WGen5300Dfv) for camping and for home use during storm power outages. It's the perfect size to accommodate home essential appliances and light enough to power up RV. I appreciate the "Dual Fuel". Propane is both easier to transport and easier to find during storms when everybody is looking for gasoline. Propane is easier to store as well. Great generator

Great generator

Just purchase it. Well built machine that looks like it will last. The dual fuel is great because you can keep propane forever, and not have to worry about gasoline turning bad or gumming up the engine. Removes the need to drain the gas when storing it. The noise level is about the same as a lawnmower and shouldn't be a problem during emergencies. Overall great generator.

Great Features - Great Price

I researched portable generators for 3 months looking for the one with all the features I wanted and this one checked all the boxes. Dual fuel a huge plus ! Easy to assemble. Once the wheels are on, extremely moble. Simple instructions and it started on the 4th pull. Added benefit was the handle that collapses , reducing the over all footprint. Price was reasonable, considering others in its class. Reviews were very good, and i have piece of mind to know that this model is very reliable. Over all I am extremely satisfied with my purchase.

Great buy so far!

Arrived via fed ex in excellent shape. Assembly was super easy. The generator started easily on the 1st pull running on propane. We have only put a light load on it so far and it works fine. Volt meter works well on both 120/240. Can't wait to use it more!

Works as expected

I bought this generator before a hurricane and used it for about 10 hours while our power was out. Easy to setup and start. Only ran refrigerator, television and a few lights so I can’t really comment on how it works under heavy load. Used about 3/4 of a 20lb lp gas tank
