Bought for backup during power failure, did not unpack for 2 months after receiving, came with no packaging issues, assumed all was good. When needed preformed the recommended set up and break in. Worked as expected, quieter than expected and would buy again or highly recommend.

I very much appreciated the labeling and instructions that came with my generator. I found the info/tags easy to follow. Assembling the wheels/legs was a snap. Plus, I was able to quickly fill the unit with oil and gas and it was running in no time. I even ran it on propane and got a "charge" out of doing that. Great product with a well thought out documentation packet! BTW, the generator package looks great and is smartly designed with controls, etc. right where can see and/or access them. I like the on-board volt meter- a real hot item for my engineering side. Plus, the "pop up" handle is slick. Now, I am ready to use it during my next project or power outage- and my wife will be happy since she will have power at home. When the "wifey" is happy, everybody is happy.

This past winter I purchased this Gen WGEN5300DFv which runs on gas or propane. Our accumulated snow levels for the one bad storm in San Bernardino Mountain was 9 ft. House is about 900 Sq ft. We had no problem keeping heater going and fridge, lights, TV, internet and modem plus a few small appliances. We were snowed in for 3 weeks. I'm so glad we had this power generator easy to learn how to use. Came with manual and Quick Start Guide. Couldn't afford a large house generator. Turns out this portable was my whole house generator. I've attached a pick of the house couple days after storm. Don't let the lump in driveway fool you. My car roof had 4 ft of snow on it.

Easy setup and runs great. But, my need was to be able to use the 120/240v (L14-30R) and the 120v (5-20R) plugins at the same time. The 120v plugins will not work if the Voltage Selector Switch is on 240v and vice versa. If I had known this, I would have bought a different one.

I purchased the generator in case of emergency and to my surprise, a high winds storm nocked out the power in my area. The house was getting colder and I was afraid the water pipes will freeze. I took the generator out of the box and followed the super easy instructions to assemble the wheels and rubber feet. I was getting ready to fill with oil and start using it when the power was restored and no longer need the generator. I'm glad because I read in the instructions about the break in period for the first hour.

I bought this generator to power essential items in my home in case of a power outage. I am very happy with this generator. This generator has the ability to be powered by both gasoline or propane. During power outage, propane is easily accessible. We use the propane and its easy to use. Thanks

We bought this in case of emergency as we recently experienced an earthquake and a severe wind storm that left us powerless for days. We were unprepared and had to leave our home as we couldn't survive w/o power. We now have peace of mind to know that when this happens again, we are ready and will be able to survive for a few days w/o power. After much research and comparison, we purchased this generator because of the dual fuel function, it's capacity to meet our voltage needs, other great features and the price was right. We have yet to use it, but are happy with it thus far as the set up was easy and we are now prepared - come what may!

We bought this during an ice storm when we lost power for a few days. We were surprised that this was in stock at the time and snatched one up. We immediately brought it home and set it up in no time at all. We were able to plug in our two refrigerators, a freezer, portable heater, electric blanket, some lamps, etc. Worked perfectly! We ran ours with propane, although gas can be used with an easy switch. We will look into hooking it up to our main breaker for future use. Highly recommend!!

We bought this generator in case there is a power outage in our neighborhood. We tested it several times and it works great. Just wish it is a little quieter when you turn it on. All in all, we are very satisfied with this generator. It gives us peace of mind in case our power goes out.

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.
