i bought this generator because my son in law recommended it because it would run on propane and i would not have to keep a can of gasoline sitting around for it. i can just take the cylinder from my gas grill and put in on the generator to start it up. really this takes two pulls and it starts up. how can you get better than this?

I just bought this for a potential hurricane coming our way. Brought it home and was able to get it put together and cranked over in less than 20 minutes. Start it up perfectly runs very smooth and so far we are very happy with it. If and when we need it, I will come back and add to this review.

I'm being asked to leave this review to receive a free cover. I've only had this thing a few days but everything works as expected. I have no complaints of any significance to speak of. I ran it for an hour to break it in and tested it with a small load. It starts on the first pull when on gasoline and it takes a few tries on propane. I purchased this because my former Champion failed to start after a decade or so of use and also because you just can't buy generators these days. Everyone is out of stock. Anyway, I hope they let me revise my answers later after I've had a chance to use it.

Very easy start up. Instructions well written. Used a large upright freezer as a constant load, used a Bosch router as a variable load and a LiIon battery charger as another load. Worked with no problems. 30 mins later switched to LP gas, worked the same.

This model Wgen5300DFcv has the features and the the power delivery capability I need for occasional, intermittent, and normally short-term power failures. I have read reviews for a variety of generator manufacturers and models, and I found that Westinghouse is usually highly recommended and has high review ratings. This model in particular has high ratings and is highly regarded for features, capability, and service ... and the price was right. Good packaging and instructions. I may add another review after properly breaking the generator in.

Returned another manufacturer's generator because it was too heavy to move for our 70 year old selves and got this one which was 100 pounds lighter and MUCH easier to use. We live in the hurricane belt and having a generator for expected power outages is essential. We have yet to use it (it's early in hurricane season) but fully expect it will work well.

As a Women Business owner with no experience in Generators I feel amazed of how easy assembly was and to start the generator. I followed the instructions on the how to start and didn’t have any trouble doing it my self. It is heavy for me to lift but thanks to the wheels I can pull or push it anywhere I want. Thank you for this amazing product

I bought this generator last June after losing power in our residence several times due to storms. Happy that I bought it as we have had several more power outages over the past year and it has saved our food from spoiling and we were able to use heaters in the winter and fans in the summer. Great buy!

We uncrated the generator and put oil in the crankcase and gas in the tank and it easily started and ran smoothly. My old generator jumped around a lot. Now we can undertake major projects at our cabin knowing that we have the electrical power to undertake any job.

I was surprised at how much quieter this was versus my Predator unit. The wheel kit with this unit is great and easy to install. I'm very impressed with the propane efficiency on this unit too. The tank is the right size. Other companies go smaller. My only complaint is that the handle is on the opposite side of the exhaust, but that is a personal preference. The toolkit is a very nice touch. It helps with draining the carb bowl. I'm impressed.
