I found this model and knew it would fit my needs for a back up source of energy. My store was out of stock, but I waited till it they received more of this model. I am glad I did. This unit will run off of two fuel sources which will make it great for Camping and Outdoor work. I am pleased with the Transfer Switch Connector as I do plan to connect it to my home in the event of power outages. Well worth the wait.

I bought this generator to supply electricity to selected appliances and lights during power outages. After determining my needs and researching found this generator fit all my requirements and was within my budget. I now have it all ready to power up when needed. Very happy with purchase for now.

I live in the dessert and it gets very hot so I bought this generator to use during power outages in the summer months, I haven’t had to use it yet but it’s nice to know that i have a reliable generator to use just in case. Packaging is very sturdy so had no damage or issues during shipping. I highly recommend this generator.

Very Excited about this product in case of any longer than expected power outages due to storms in the area at times. Also the fact that its dual fuel insures we can adequately prepare ourselves more with multiple types of fuel in advance! Excited to begin using it as necessary!

Purchased as a backup for direct wiring into the house during hurricane season. Have transfer switch all set up and generator test worked as desired. Will not attempt to run at full load until necessary but looks to be the right size for all appliances/lights with the excpetion of Washer/Dryer and whole house AC.

Had it shipped from Sam’s Club. Great price. Runs great and powers most things we have in a small mountain cabin when the power goes off. Have to pick and choose what you want powered but that’s what I wanted. Installing a power panel transfer switch is the way to go to take advantage of the 5300’s L14-30amp plug.

Out of the box and assembled easily. Started right up and had no issues so far. The oil funnel that was supplied is awesome since it threads in and has a rubber gasket to stop spillage and made oil filling painless. I live above 5000 feet and would have liked the high altitude kits to be supplied but over all I am happy I bought this unit. It seems to run fine at this altitude but after reading instructions I think I will get more performance with the kit installed.

Bought this generator when some severe storms recently knocked out our power for 2+ days in SE Michigan. Love the dual fuel option and opted to run this generator on propane. Each 20lb cylinder of propane lasted about 11-12 hours. Did not use the supplied oil... we used Mobil 1 5w-30 full synthetic oil. This generator started easy and ran everything we asked it to until power returned. Will be adding a 30 amp power inlet to the house so that we won't need extension cords if the power goes out again.

I have been reviewing generators for awhile and after reading reviews, price and features, I purchased this generator. I purchased this product seven days ago and finally was able to unbox today. I had no damage to the product when unpackaged. All I had to do was put on the wheels, two front rubber supports that it sits on and add oil. I attached it to propane, choked it and after three pulls it started right up. I checked the electricity output and the output was there. I hope I don't ever need it for backup power but I will sure have it if needed. The generator was actually quieter than I had thought it might be when running. Even my wife said that it was quieter than she had anticipated.

Just bought and it took several pulls to get it started. After running it for a while every time l tried to turn choke down it started running rough. I hope this will remedy itself after break in time.Just tried generator and it works fine but still runs rough when I turn choke off.
