Great Generator

I bought this generator after a power outage in my community that last for over several hours, the generator has helped in a great way for providing power to our house in case of another power outage in our community and help keep power to the lights , refrigenrator running, wifi on ,etc. The best part is , the generator gas and propane operated and it can be connected to my utility box by an experience electrician.

Easy Assembly and Startup

The instructions were very well laid out, and the parts and tools needed for assembly were all there. A lot of though was put forth so the customer isn't fumbling for tools and oil during assembly. The unit ran smoothly and powered my 30A RV no problem. The unit was purchased to power the RV and 2 freezers after potential hurricane outages.

Excellent Product for Money

This Westinghouse - WGen5300DFv seemed to have the best value out there. It is well built and I love the option to use propane or gas. It was easy to assemble the wheels and supports. The engine oil was also easy to add with the oil tube provided. They have covered all the bases well!

Great Features at an affordable price

I researched traditional generator sets for months and decided on the WGen5300. For a home owner needing backup power in an outage, it has a decent size power capacity while still being light enough for two people to easily pick it up to move it to a different location if necessary, very happy with this purchase.

Great Price for Dual Fuel

I bought this with the plan to only use the LP. The manual is well written. I added oil, connected the LP tank, and ran it for an hour with no load (recommended for engine break in). It started easy and ran great. I plugged in a few small items to test afterwards with no issues. I haven't used it in an emergency yet; however, I like the peace of mind of having it.

Love the dual fuel option!!

We bought this generator on January 12, 2022, as we were getting ready for an ice storm to hit our area. The setup for this machine was easy and it fired right up with no problems at all. So far I'm loving our new generator. I would recommend this product to others!

Dependable Company

Just bought it today and haven't used it yet. Westinghouse has been around for years and they have always been reliable. If I'm not mistaken they built the turbine generators on the submarine I was on during my tour in the Navy. I feel very comfortable purchasing their products.

Just opened

It appears to be well built and sturdy. It has a strong metal frame. Good wheels. The labeling on the user controls are visible and easy to understand. It also came with its own little tool kit. After a couple of primer pulls it fired right up. I am pleased with this purchase.

Inspect before use!

So right out of the box I have a gas fuel leak coming from the gas shut off valve. I'm not upset, but hope other owners will inspect their units before using full time. If left unattended this leak could have caused a fire. I'll be reaching out to the manufacturer for a replacement. On a more positive note. The generator fired up first pull with no issues and ran for a while until I found the leak.

Dual power with reasonable price, affordable

bought this Wgen5300 couple weeks ago after a month of comparing from other good known brands found out this is as reliable as any better brands. I made my great choice for this year. My Xmas gift to myself. My family can stay safe now even during a rare winter storm in Houston, Texas
