We were without power for what seemed forever. Our sump pump couldn't run and our basement started to take on water. Friends loaned us their Westinghouse generator; it was so quick and easy to prep and power things, that we immediately purchased one of our own.

Bought fresh m big box stores. Was shipped to me free by FedEx. Good packaging, everything was in good condition. Added included engine oil, installed included wheels and rubber feet. Added premium non ethanol fuel, turned on fuel, set choke, bam; one pull fired right up, smooth idle, 110 volt outlet/output perfect! So happy I now have an emergency power source! Crazy times we live in, every home owner should buy one in case of a power failure of the grid!

Easy to assemble and understand. Started easily and hums right along, have now used it for about 5 hours with no issues. It is a bit loud, but I expected that. Have not tried the propane fuel option but don't anticipate problems. Seems like a quality built unit with quality materials, am very pleased to date.

I did get it started, but after about 5 minutes it just shut off. Started it again and after a few minutes it shut off again. I live in high altitude so I purchased the recommended high altitude kit and hopefully it will run better after installing the kit.

Although I haven't had any emergencies (yet) I feel secure that I shall have electric power for heat, lights and refrigerators in the event of power grid failures. My one regret is that I should have gotten the 7,000 watts or even the 9,000 watts unit. However, this one seems efficient and economical to run. Oh yeah, it's dual fuel to boot. Great for me in a rural environment.

Although I have yet to operate my new Wgen5300dfv, I’m quite happy with how small it is and how I have the luxury of not having to be dedicated myself to just petro fuel which if left around for to long can go bad. My only regret was failing to acknowledge during the ordering process that I accidentally ordered the WGen5300Dfv without the electric starter. Can’t wait to get this baby running.

With exception of Central Units and Dryer this will run everything else in my house. I can even add a window AC unit if needed. Very good value for a dual fuel. I ran for break in period without any issues. A bit louder than I expected but inside house you can't hardly hear it at all with it at least 15 ft from house

I bought this to run our gas furnace blower to stay warm during our annual winter power outage in Texas. I'm going to have my electrician install a power transfer switch and plug to run my entire house when we lose power. (Of course I'll be super conservative with electricity and throw the breakers for anything that isn't absolutely necessary) I am hoping to be able to use lights, (1 room at a time), two gas furnaces and a hot water recirculation pump to stay warm and keep the pipes from freezing and busting again. (And possibly the tv and internet router) I love that its dual fuel so I can use it with my RV as well. I'm hoping I don't have to use it!

Have only run for an hour so far, but easy to assemble and run. The included oil funnel is terrible, recommend using an automatic transmission type funnel. Unit is louder than anticipated but will help to remind you to keep it an appropriate distance from home or tent to avoid exhaust fumes. Test run on propane with no load used about 1lb. propane for an hour.

Spark plug cracked on second day of using it. Not quality reputable brands like ngk plugs or any big name brands for the carb. Air filter was like tissue paper. Plug was fouled too so carb was running rich wasting very expensive ethanol free gas I bought especially for jt. The tires feel like a little tougher version of Styrofoam 😂 Everything will rust like crazy no matter how or where you store it. First time I changed oil after it's stoped working on the end of second day and the oil was black with grey tint. Don't buy this I think there was even a recall on these in 2019
