I like it.

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.

Easy to set up, got running quick

Bought this generator a few weeks ago. Happy with it so far. Only ran about 15 minutes so far on propane and it seems to be running well. The manual for starting was a bit confusing with what it says to do with the choke on a cold start but I figured it out.

Excellent all purpose generator

Bought this mostly for our 30a RV. Even here at the house we lost power a few weeks ago and could only sit in it (trailer) and run the 12v stuff, mainly lights. We can now run the entire trailer off this one including AC, microwave and over the air tv. I had read it runs a little quieter on propane and after trying both it and gasoline I believe that to be a true statement. With that said I absolutely love having the chance to run either fuel source, always have 13 or 14 gallons of ethanol free gas and 60lbs of propane on hand. Bring on the winter, we are way better prepared than we were before this generator.

love the dual feature

I purchased this a month ago and we had a horrific snow storm. It saved us a freezer full of meat! what I love the most is that it is easy to maneuver being on wheels and that it has the feature of using either propane or gasoline. This was the best purchase I've made i a long time.

Bought yesterday -- have not used it

Bought yesterday, Weight is good -- I can actually move it around with the handle. Have not plugged it in yet. I am sure it will be great; hopefully, we will not have to use it. At least we won't lose our food. We just had a tornado and why we are purchasing it. We know Westinghouse is a great brand.

Food Saver when Hurricanes hit

Finally decided to purchase generator after losing food from outages due to hurricanes in Louisiana. Now we are able to keep food in refrigerator and freezer from spoiling when power is out. It was easy to assemble and start. I like the fact that this generator can use gas or propane. Now we don't have to panic when power goes out!

Model WGen5300DFv Generator

I have looked a a large number of generator brands with many different configurations. The two most important features were duel fuel and a AC/CA 120/240V 30A outlet. This generator has both of those features along with many others. The price was well in the range of our budget. It was clear that this generator was the perfect fit to provide emergency power to our small rural are condo. We will eventually have the wiring installed so we will be able to provide power anywhere in the condo as needed. I'm ready to give a shake down.

Easy to use

My first time using a generator. Frankly, I thought it would be troublesome and it’s not. I do have to say, it was a bit heavy to move, But once I installed the wheels it was easy to move around. The instructions are very simple to follow. Once the oils and fuel was added. Only a few pulls if the recoil is what it took to get the generator going. It truly saved the day. I was going on 8 hours without power and the refrigerator wasn’t going to hold much longer. I am very happy I have the generator

Need longer oil funnel

I bought this a few days ago. The only two things I can see that I don't like are, I don't know why it can't be shipped with the wheels and feet already installed. Secondly, the funnel provided to put the oil in is too short and a second funnel will have to be used to keep from spilling oil.
