Very easy to set up, move and use!

I purchased this generator as an emergency backup for our home. I have test operated the generator to successfully power a variety of small appliances. I especially like that it can operate on gasoline and LPG which allows safer long-term storage between uses. I can store a gas bottle with the generator between uses and then supplement with gasoline during longer periods of operation.

Great Features

I bought this during hurricane 🌀 Beryl and it's kept my fridge and deep freezer going. While running fans with no power for a week with no problems. Easy set up and start up. Like the features of when to change the oil with the blinking indicator.

Start up went well.

Upon opening the box and start up, everything works as advertised. I added the engine oil and hooked the generator up to a propane source. It started on the fourth pull. I had the unit powering my entire house through a recently installed generator inlet within about 15 minutes. The longevity of the unit is TBD but so far so good.

Very well built and solid.

Started up on first pull on propane setting. Ran for 30 min. then changed the oil. No metal shavings in the pan. Filled up again with royal purple and a little Marvel Mystery Oil and I am ready for any power outage. Only con is the oil release screw is located directly over part of the frame so oil has to run all over it. Had to use a large shallow pan to catch all the dripping oil. Why can't the engineers design these with ease of use for oil changes? Other then that it is a great product that runs fairly quiet and will get the job done.

Great features, easy to use

I bought this as a precautionary measure for my family, haven't had to use it yet we have unboxed it and done a trial run. Instructions were clear and precise and easy to follow. The generator is good quality and has great features. The control panel makes it easy to read and understand. So far so good. Would recommend this product to others.

Perfect for times of Need!

This generator came in hand in our times of need! Our lights went out and I was able to assemble the unit and have it up and running within 20 minutes. It powered all of our essential units needed to keep our family warm from our winter storm. Excellent and reliable product!

Backup power

I've had this for a month and wanted to give it chance to operate during a power outage. But, no outage . I did run it during the installation powering up my house. Mind you that I didn't run everything in the house. Just the necessary things needed during a power outage. I've run it on both LPG and gasoline. Starts easy on either fuel. Instructions are easy to use and the included oil and funnel are a plus.

Super User Friendly and Effecdtive

Bought this and installed an outlet to my breaker box for it. The 5300 easily ran my fridge, roll-out portable A/C unit, TV, and ceiling fans. Easy to switch from gas to propane. Small but mighty! So glad I bought it before our first hurricane of the season!

Great Features & Easy to Move

I bought this and am very please with how easy it was to put together. I also like how easy it is to move around with the two wheels attached. That is a big plus for me because the generator weighs about 150 lbs. I haven't had to use it yet, but it was very easy for me to start. Overall it is a very great buy!
