Generator was easy to assemble and easy to operate although the HZ frequency was 63 with no apparent way to adjust and the manual has the wrong schematic that doesn’t show the connection of the L13-40R connection. I will call the tech support line for help.

I actually just bought this the same day I'm doing this review. I went on to register after running past the 5 hour break-in period with no issues. After testing a variation of appliances while running my heat tape on my roof, since it's been snowing, while running both gasoline and propane, I'm impressed with the wattage output of the Wgen5300. Typically, if you don't experience any issues within the break-in period, you aren't likely to have any in the future, outside of wear and tear. After seeing how this generator preforms after 6 hours of running, I intend on keeping this unit for many years. This is the first generator I've owned that'll run on propane and I must say, while I intend to primarily use gas, the propane will come in handy. It still seems to have plenty of power for what I needed even though it's downrated to 4800 running watts. I thought I'd test to see how seamless it can transfer from propane to gas or vice versa. I was able to switch it over to propane while it was sputtering out of gas without it ever dieing. I'm happy with my purchase and after using an 8 year old Duro Max 4400 that still works excellent, I'm not regretting my new purchase.

I bought this back before winter for dual purposes, first to have in case of a power outage and also to power our camper if we went to a site that didn't offer power. So far I have not used it much, just pulled out to run our camper a few times to run gas through the generator. I do like having the dual fuel (gas/propane) option because I typically have propane bottles sitting around full without the worry of gas going bad through the winter. Overall I think this generator is good for the money I spent to get it.

The first generator I received had been damaged in transit. It must have been dropped as the frame was bent, which made the wheels rub the frame when installed. I was concerned there might be hidden motor damage as well, so I requested a replacement. This was completed and a replacement generator received within 10 days. The replacement is fine. I will begin the break In process this weekend. I noted a previous review that changed the oil multiple times until it was clean (no metal shavings) so I will do that. I also purchased gas stabilizer to extend the life of the gas in the generator and the gas tank up to two years.

I bought this generator because old died on me during a power outage. I like the dual fuel feature, so I don't have to worry about old gas going stale. I set it up as per instructions and ran it for a while. I had to change the plug coming from my house from a 20 amp to a 30 amp because the 20amp doesn't work with this generator. I hooked it up to the and ran it for about 10 minutes, checked voltage at one of my receptacles and the reading was 120 volts. So far. I'm very happy with the purchase. Also, I received it 3 days sooner than expected.

I bought this with the plan to only use the LP. The manual is well written. I added oil, connected the LP tank, and ran it for an hour with no load (recommended for engine break in). It started easy and ran great. I plugged in a few small items to test afterwards with no issues. I haven't used it in an emergency yet; however, I like the peace of mind of having it.

For the price this is a good generator! The 240 volts part is great to have as on rare occasions I need that. Not the loudest or the quietest but about the middle. The dual fuel is a great thing to have! Was able to plumb it to a 40 and 100lbs tank.c9mes in very handy when away from conventional power!

I purchased this duel fuel generator a couple of weeks ago and gave it a test for the first time today. It seems to be perfect for our backup power needs. It handled the refrigerator and a small freezer chest easily. We were also able to use our portable fans at the same time. I’m confident it will get us through any short term power outages that may happen.

Host registering my Wgen5300 now and it’s saying I get a bonus item for leaving a review. So far kind of disappointed I had so much trouble finding a cover, figure it would be offered with the purchase but oh well. Already spent hours finding a cover to match dimensions and paid for it to arrive same time. Now I can’t find any info on this cover offer. We shall see.. Generator seems nice and has plenty of good reviews, haven’t fired it up quite yet, waiting to be ready to give it the proper Maintnance. I did put wheels and feet on which was pretty easy. Thumbs up so far.

This is a great product for critical home power needs, wasn’t looking to power entire house and this fits perfect. Easy setup and dual fuel options is outstanding. This way I don’t need to store a bunch of gasoline, I can break up what I store into both gasoline and propane.
