I bought this in a hurry to save our frozen food after Zeta last year. Easy to set up and start. It ran two refrigerators via 12 gauge extensions and didn’t seem to break a sweat! If we get a storm this year I am ready. The price was reasonable and the size is manageable.

I just bought this generator and I’m very satisfied with it so far. At this price I really didn’t expect the quality I got, I half expected something flimsy and oblong. The best part for me is the propane option. I don’t expect to run it often, so not having to worry about gas going bad and gumming up the carb is awesome.

Bought this generator recently so haven't had a chance to put it into practical use during an outage yet. Setup and assembly was easy, motor cranked easily with just a couple of pulls on both gasoline and propane fuel settings. Plugged light into generator to test power production. Ran generator for approximately 2 hours with no problems. Seems to work well and is easy to operate.

I bought this generator after having an off-brand gen for 5 years. The 5300 with a peak watt 6500 is able to 5x15 and 1x30 sub panel breaker box with ease. I have had to use it twice in the past month, once for 5 days and then for ~36 hours due to storms in the Midwest. I am able to run basics like computers, televisions, furnace 2 refrigerators, deep freezer....as well as major wattage items like coffee maker, microwave, washer and dryer at same time. Past generators have tripped fuses if we dared trying to use 2 major appliance at same time.I haven't tried propane yet, but 4.7gal gas tank runs ~8 hours

For those in small towns who don't want to rely on a gas station having power as well, or maintaining a 5 gallons of gas ever several months, the ability to throw a standard propane tank on this unit is super convenient. Plus a propane tank is easier to deal with if a user does not have a truck bed to haul. I love having the option to do either.

This 5300 doesn't come with electric start. It started on the first pull after adding fuel and crankcase oil. Run absolutely dead smooth. Super well packed and in pristine condition right out of the box. Decent wheels. Much better wheels than come in the aftermarket kits.

I was looking for a reasonable priced generator for my home in case the power goes out. I liked it because I can travel with it for camping. A friend recommended this one and hade never an issue with it. Can't wait to lose power ha ha to see it in action.

We were so excited to get our first generator. We had been having outages in our neighborhood due to upgrades on grids. So we decided to buy a generator and it worked great! We were able to stay warm and watch tv while our lights were out. It was easy to manage and definitely got the job done! We're so happy we made this purchase!

We have had a major snowstorm and ice storm within a week of each other. Lost power both times! We bought this right before the first storm hit and it has really come through helping us run the essentials. Highly recommend this if you need power! Amazing and grateful buy!!!!

I bought this generator after losing power in 20 degree weather for two days. I lost power again the following week due to a blizzard. The generator started right up and I connected it to heaters that kept us warm until the power came back on. In -30 degree weather, this generator was a great purchase.
