WGEN5300DFv

I bought this generator for multiple reasons. I wanted it for emergency house power, to run power equipment in the field, and to supply power to my camper. The ability to run LP instead of gasoline makes it perfect for the camper. I am very pleased with the purchase and look forward to using it.

Great power! Easy to use!

I recently purchased this generator due to pole upgrades in my neighborhood and losing power once a month. I'm so happy on how easy is to use and how much power it has! I plugged a fridge, two tv's and all my computer office equipment! It didn't budge at all!

Great Design

Just recently purchased due to the uncertainty of severe weather patterns. Although I have not had a power outage, I did test run this generator. It starts very easily and runs quietly. I tested the output & they are as specified. I like the gasoline/LP option. I always have both on hand. The RV option is also a great option. The stored handle makes it easy to move the generator to any location. I know I can count on this Westinghouse product as their products are well made and designed.

Peace of Mind is Priceless

I bought this generator during the state's sales tax holiday in preparation for the upcoming hurricane season. My husband and I were most attracted to the dual fuel option since gas can be difficult to obtain in the aftermath of a storm. After running the unit for an hour on propane, he said it operated correctly. We feel confident that this product will be well worth the money spent should we experience an active hurricane season.

Dual fuel is great feature

After experiencing the power outages in Texas in February of 2021 a generator is a necessity to be prepared for future outages. Having the propane feature allows the safe storage of fuel and mitigates the unavailability of gasoline during power outages. This unit is quiet and powerful enough to keep the lights on and the food cold when the power is out.

Well made!!

Bought this after some research on different name brands generators and cost. I ended up being persuaded to buy this brand. Love the 2 types of fuel options, heavy duty material it is made out of, includes everything you need. Can't wait to use it when needed!

Very Little Assembly Ready to Go

The weatherman assured us that ice was not going to be our friend this weekend. We have debated for years about the need for a portable generator and decided it was time to stop flirting with danger (since we have 2 full deep freezers). Out of the box there was very little assembly. We decided to try both fuels. It started right up with our portable propane tank which was very encouraging. Several folks have told us that duel fuel is the way to go. Next we put in just a bit of premium gasoline. Again, it fired right up and we just let it run until it was empty. I don't know what the weekend may bring---but this generator is easy to operate and gives us the confidence we've been lacking in winter readiness! We have no reason to think that this generator is anything but amazing!

Simple setup-meets my needs

Bought this a couple of weeks ago. Setup went smoothly and runs well. Have wanted a dependable backup for some time since we are in a rather remote area. Seems like it will provide sufficient power for our emergency needs, and operation is solid and fairly quiet. I may consider it excellent after the next power outage, but I haven't fully tested its capacity yet.

Easy to operate

Bought this generator to power the fridge in case of power outage. Very easy to set up and operate. Only giving 4 stars because the L14-30R outlet wasn’t producing power no matter the troubleshooting steps taken. At least the 5-20R outlets were working perfectly.

Fantastic Generator for emergency home use.

Living in Texas during this extreme heat of June and July I knew we were bound for brown and black outs of our electrical suppliers. This 5300 watt gen with it's higher starting wattage was just the thing i needed to keep the fridge and the freezer going! When I did my calculations I found that I was able to add a small room AC unit and a TV. Much to my surprise this little unit just chugged away! Lower noise than the older gens I had used many years ago and the price was a pleasant ease on the checkbook. All in All a great unit at a great price! And it really does the job! Thanks Westinghouse!
