Saved us during the long term power outage after hurricane Beryl. Was able to run my freezer, refrigerator, small AC, and a few lights. Ran flawlessly for 5 days while power was out. Hope I don’t need it again for this type of service, but happy I have it just in case! Serviced it and drained the fuel from the carb for storage along with some fuel stabilizer in the tank. Should be ready to go for next time.

Everything from taking it out of the box to installing the feet and wheels to reading and understanding the instruction manual was simple and easy. Ready to try for the first time since Elsa is on the way. Makes me feel ready when the power fails and it will.

Love the generator and wattage output. I installed a cut-over switch and have tested it for running the house in a power outage, both freezers, kitchen lights/fridge and 1 AC ran fine with great voltage output (per the Electrician!). I did take 1 star off due to the fact that I had to order & return 2 units before receiving the 3rd one undamaged (the first 2 had FRAME and structural damage and just weren't packed well from the beginning). But the Generator itself works great once started and running!

This generator worked well during the 9 hour power outage I had. It saved the food in my refrigerators and freezer. I like this generator. The only suggestion is that I wish the oil draining pipe could be a little longer. The plastic oil dip is a little too soft and the screw can be damaged easily.

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.

I bought this a month ago and have only had a chance to use it once but it started up easily and I love the flexibility of dual fuel. Since it will be used infrequently being able to run on propane and not have to worry about gas going bad is a great benefit.

This is the perfect resource for hurricane season. We frequently lose power in South Louisiana, and the flexibility of the dual fuel allows us to be ready for any contingency. A whole home generator is far too expensive for most families, but this portable generator meets our needs in a very economical way.

i have been researching which generator to buy. i fell in love with all the features and benefits the wgen5300dfv has to offer . some one else told me about it and i immediately opted to buy it. lets not forget the feature of switching from gas to propane. How awesome is that! Thanks, EM

This work amazing you have to break it in first and run it with no load for 6 hrs to get a the valves sealed up. After that it works very well on propane or gas. I wish there was a natural gas converter that the sold so I could use the natural gas at my house

I bought the Westinghouse generator a few months ago and it has been great! I searched for a while for the features that I wanted and Westinghouse 5300 dual fuel fit. I knew Westinghouse was reliable and knew this would be a goodbye and it has turned out to be just what I needed. Plenty of output to power the essentials.
