WGen 5300 DFcv generator

I just ordered on line 8/23/2023, received sooner than promised on 8/28, appears in great condition, no dents, box intact. Have not used yet, everything included as stated. Waiting for my electrician to set up. Will update once its running. only 4 since has not used it yet. Chose this one based on lots of research and reviews.

Awesome generator!

We finally got to use the generator for hurricane Idelia. Started with only one pull (for my husband). Ran for hours without a glitch. Love the fact that we can chose propane or gas. We feel much more at ease with two more months of hurricane season this year.

duel fuel generator

I received and unpacked it. It seems very well built. I put oil in which was made easy by funnel provided, put on wheels which was also very easy. Put on feet which was made easier with welded on nuts. Came with everything to use Lp but the Tank! smaller than I thought it would be but that is a plus. Moves around easily and handle pushes down for more space for storage. I bought this because of the duel fuel capability because the one I have isn't.

Simple and Effective

I really appreciate the fact that this model has wheels and a handle for mobility. The motor stared right up. All the controls are simple and straight forward. It even comes with the first container of premeasured SAE 10W-30W oil. I really like the dual fuel feature. I couldn't be happier with this generator.

Too early to tell but seems well built

Easy assembly All the parts came with it as promised and were in logical packaging with instructions Took longer to start than I'd hoped but once started it ran well. VERY fuel efficient. Ran it fo 3 hours on less than a gallon on the oil that came with it then changed to synthetic. Wheels around well. Pleasantly surprised on the noise level. A good size for its power capacity. The only concern is that the "pulsed" more than I thought ideal and seems to struggle to power a 1500W space heater (no fan). Hopefully it will be OK. Ed

Great Generator for Motorhome

I bought this generator to replace the Onan 5500 generator in my 1998 motorhome. The Westinghouse generator works well and can easily power my entire motorhome running both A/C units and other appliances at the same time. I like the multiple plug ins and the ability to run either 120 or 240v. Would be 5 Stars if started on the first pull every time, however it does start consistently on the second pull every time using gas for fuel. A primer button may help this. The way the unit is mounted creates very little vibration for a small engine.

Great Power!

I bought this a few months ago and I am very happy with the outcome of it. When we had a power outage I was able to turn it on with no problem in this generator was able to turn on all my necessity items for example my refrigerator my stove and almost all my lights in the house. Great product great power the only feature that I would’ve liked to have was a remote start feature but overall this product was great and it did the work.

easy to use and has 240V!

I bought this model because I need 240v available in addition to 120. Also, I like the dual fuel since I already have several propane bottles for BBQ cooking and emergency supplies. So far, easy to set up and use. Useful after the recent hurricanes and I used in conjunction with a solar power gen unit so that my fuel storage lasts longer. The unit is a BEAST so I am glad it is on wheels and contained within a cage. So far I like this product. I hope to not have to buy another for another decade! Time will tell

Lots of Power

I purchased this product because I needed to power up to three sump pumps simultaneously in case of a power outage. I have been pleased with the product thus far. Its operation is simple; it seems like it will be easy to perform regular maintenance, has a lot of output, and is versatile with three different outlets. I like that it is dual fuel, so I don't have to mess with draining gas every time and can just disconnect the propane tank. Recommend this product.

5300W dual fuel

Had been looking for months for a backup generator for our solar system. So far it is performing great. Right out of box put oil and gas in, cranked right up. Switched over to propane for the 1 hour run in, ran great and was surprised at small amount of fuel used. Was concerned about how it might run because we are at 8200 feet elevation. Did well under load. Have ordered high elevation kits. Really like the dual fuel aspect.
