Last minute need

Had an extended power outage and a commercial fridge that couldnt be out longer. Grabbed this and worked great plus have in case for the future. Only down side is this is pretty heavy even empty so be prepared and is loud which I expected. Ran on Gas but like the dual function

Easy setup, relatively quiet operation

Bought a few days ago in advance of a snow/ice storm.. our power goes out 4-5 times a year with above ground utilities. Setup instructions were easy to follow. Generator is easy to move with the handle. Was able to power a fridge, deep freeze, 2 space heaters, modem, and TV.

Amazing!

We bought this generator because last winter we had a power outrage for more than a week and we didn't want to go through that all over again. We happened to have purchased it the same day our power went out. Everyone else on the street was dark but we had lights and heat. Works as advertised. Very easy to use and easily supplied what we needed. Will be connecting it to a transfer switch before we get snow this year. Very happy.

Generator

I can only rate this product for the condition in which I received it.. It was not damaged coming out of the box, all the supplemental products were included, and the set up seems easy enough. Have not had an opportunity to run it yet .. but .. so far .. so good.

Easy to use!

I just bought the WGen5300 after living in Florida my entire life I figured it was about time. We have had a couple multi-day power outages that left everything in the fridge ruined. I plan to use this for the fridge and an AC window unit. I think the set up was rather easy and I was able to get it started on the first pull after turning the choke on. It wouldn’t start leaving it off per the instructions so turn it on and then off right after it kicks on.

Works great

I bought this generator right before hurricane Milton. I am so glad I did as we needed it after the storm. It was easy to assemble and start it up. It ran all day on a tank of gas and was able to run our fridge and some other items in the kitchen as well as some lights, a few fans and our vacuum. I am very happy with this generator.

Nice Generator

I bought this last month and so far it has been just as I expected. Although I wish it had electric start, it starts easily without it. I also like the fact that I can use it with propane instead of gasoline. Another thing I liked was the price. Comparable units at other stores were a lot more expensive.

The Westinghouse WGen Generator

This is a spectacular product ! High quality. 6 different people have been advising us to purchase this exact model and brand. We have used it and it is everything promised! Also the fact that you can get a free cover isn’t bad for customer satisfaction either. The price is reasonable and we’ll worth the purchase. You can use this product anywhere you need power. Can be powered with gas or propane. It’s a relief to have this. Thanks Westinghouse !!

I'm very pleased with this purchase

I've never owned a generator so I can't say how it compares to others out there, but I can say it was by far the best deal for a dual fuel generator. It was a much better price than generators that provided much less power. It was easy to assemble the wheels. It's very well built and easy to use. Would definitely purchase this brand again. Highly recommend.

GREAT FOR EMERGENCIES!

been debating whether or not to buy a generator after years of annual failures by the city of Austin, this year was the last straw. Went down and picked this up, tossed it in the back seat of my car and never looked back. Quick and easy assembly to put the wheels on, fill it up with oil (all with the tools and oil supplied in box). Carefully read the instructions and filled it up with 4.7 gallons of gas, and it fired right up on the first pull. Ran mine and my neighbor's refrigerators flawlessly for almost 6 hours, and we finally got our power back on the grid after 40+ hours during the freeze. I was able to run my wifi and laptop as well, and a small space heater it was great having power to spare!
