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!

High Quality Product

I worked with the U.S. Army Generator 2Kw for 20 years while while working with Mobile Kitchen Trailer (MKT). The quality of workmanship by Westinghouse Generator WGen5300DFv is outstanding. It runs great, noise level is lower than other generators around this size or model. I'm going to purchase another one for my food truck business. Very happy with this Generator

Easy setup - solid

The box it arrived in was a little beat up, but generator was packed well enough. It is heavy, but I was able to put on wheels and feet without an issue by myself. Once the wheels are on, it was easy to haul around. I like that it operates off propane and came with a wrench, a funnel, and oil. I haven't used it yet, but will do a test soon. I live in Florida, and this will come in handy as backup power.

Amazingly Reliable

I am a homesteader and live completely offgrid. Solar and generator are my main sources of power and they must be reliable. This is!!!! This generator starts everytime with absolutely no issues, runs smooth and is surprisingly great on gas. Just change the oil often. I cannot stress that enough. I finally found a good one!!!!

Trusting our generator works when it is needed

The generator was packaged so good that none of the parts got broken. Instructions were great when it came to putting on the feet and wheels. We got it our of the box and got it ready to use. The last hurricane we were blessed and didn't have to use it. I will give another review when and if we need to use it. Thanks for the good instructions.

Excellent value

I bought this to replace an old B&S powered 5000 watt generator that I was constantly having to repair. This one started first pull out of the box and is much quieter than my previous dinosaur. I honestly don’t see how you can build a complex machine like this and have it delivered to my home at this price point….very happy with my purchase.

Handy Generator

I just purchased this generator and am very pleased with it. It has all the features that I wanted and is compact enough not to take up a lot of storage space. Assemble was easy and it started right up and works great on gasoline and propane. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a backup generator or just one to take camping.

Excellent generator

Bought this generator in preparation for emergency situations at my house. Lost power within weeks of getting it. Filled it with oil, hooked up my 100lb propane tank, filled it with gas and started right up. Powers everything necessary in my house, and love that I can run it on gas and propane, runs for a long time. Fairly quiet as well. I’ve already recommended this model to 3 family and friends.

worked like a charm. reliable generator

We bought this generator in case we needed it for one of TX many storms, and sure enough we used it this past week with storm Beryl. The dual fuel came in handy when in the early hours there was no gas to be found, so we used the propane tank (which didnt last as long as regular gas does) and then we found gas at a gas station and refueled it, so both fuel types work, just the propane tank only lasted about 4 hrs. Setup was pretty easy and straight forward. The wheels come in handy for easy transportation. Overall I recommend this generator.

Better than I expected

I purchased this right after Hurricane Ida to replace a 16 year old Briggs and Stratton that still ran but was SO loud and only ran on gas. I wanted a dual fuel option. Took it out of the box, put the wheels and feet on it, plugged propane in and it started right up with no problem. I know some say its loud, but it was definitely much quieter than my old one, very bearable especially from 25 feet away. I will be plugging it into my 30 amp 4 pin locking inlet with interlock into my electric panel in an outage. I did read if you are planning on doing that then you need to unhook a wire that places the unit into floating neutral, don't forget to read the manual. I also saw youtube video that said that if the 240 is engaged on the switch for the 4 pin locking cable that the other 120 outlets may not work but I haven't tested that yet.
