I bought this unit to replace my old generator that would not start. I figured with the Westinghouse name and with the great reviews this was the best choice. The weight of the generator is easy to roll around and with the hurricane season about to start I needed a generator in case of emergencies.

bought this to use at camp site. set up and started in garage ran for an hour no problems. have only put minimal load on for testing at this point but happy with results so far. noise level is good. not very loud. only reason for 4 stars is haven't really used it yet

I got a chance to use this string a power outage. When I was done with the generator I turned it off and stored it in my garage. I didn’t shut off the fuel line. The next morning I work up to gas all over in my garage. Fuel leaked out of the carburetor and through the filter assembly all night. The rubber parts of the air filter swelled up and probably won’t fit back in the housing. Pretty annoying thing to happen after first use. The machine did fine powering my fridge and freezer. Started up easy. Haven’t run in lpg yet.

I purchased the WG5300DFv model and the instructions were very well done and easy to follow for the setup. I put gas in it and also connected propane, followed the starting instructions, and it fired right up on gas and then I switched to propane and all ran very well. I am excited about using my generator at our house and camp for backup power.

Like most jere, went shopping after storms took power out for most of the day. Found this at a very decent price. The two fuel types is an added plus. Running the initial hour to get it settled i and shouldn’t have to worry about those outages again. Also talked 3 others into purchasing while there just by explaining some of the features.

I just bought this generator and I’m very satisfied with it so far. At this price I really didn’t expect the quality I got, I half expected something flimsy and oblong. The best part for me is the propane option. I don’t expect to run it often, so not having to worry about gas going bad and gumming up the carb is awesome.

The first time I tried starting the generator, it just wouldn't start. I assumed I floded it with the choke. I tired later and it backfired. I bought some starter fluid and tried again a couple weeks later, and still no luck. I'm not sure if it's a bad plug or coil. I'm going to contact Westinghouse support to see if they have reccommendations.

This generator is reliable and dependable and has eased my fears and concerns about being without power for an extended time period. My husband and I both have health issues and having purchased the Westinghouse generator has put our minds at ease. Thank you.

A few years ago we lost power for over a week during the big freeze in Texas. The cost in food that we had to throw away was more than the price of this generator. I'm grateful to have the sense of security that my family (and food) will be protected should we experience another freeze.

Bought my generator three days ago it was easy to put together in less than 10 minutes fired it up with propane let it run for a short time with a small load of 2000 watts. I was impressed at how quiet it was and very little noise level change after hooking up small appliances to test. Right now without long-term usage I would recommend this generator with confidence
