I Just bought this to replace an existing generator that was many years old and worked flawlessly through several hurricanes. It even supported my neighbors. I expect continued excellence from this Westinghouse generator. It has all the features I require including a propane capability.

We bought this generator for our camper and planning on using it for the first time this weekend. Of course we tested it out in the backyard first on light loads since the camper is at a storage facility. It seems to perform very well on propane, keeping in mind if we need to run it for heavier loads, we can use gasoline. So far we are thrilled with this purchase and the price was unbeatable when compared to similar models. It's heavier than I thought it would be, but this thing is solid. I'll take solid and a little heaviness over cheaply made products that will not last. It's not super quiet, but not obnoxiously loud either. Overall we are extremely satisfied and I will come back to add on to this review after we use it for our camper, if allowed.

I brought this in preparation for the next winter storm. The package comes complete with oil and the connection for propane hook up. Lifting the item is very heavy but once out of the box and you assemble the wheels it’s really easy to move around and store. The instructions are very detailed and easy to read to help you get started. The generator comes with multiple plug ports with easy to read on off and choke. It is pretty loud but what generator isn’t. All in I’m very happy with this purchase and look forward to many years of use.

I purchased this unit about 1.5 years ago and just recently opened the box due to lack of need. As an engineer I was impressed on the build of the machine from the packaging, the build, the thorough instructions, and the fact that it started right up after sitting in the box all this time.

Living in the South we were concerned about losing power due to storms. We were looking for a generator to power the refrigerator, freezer and maybe a fan. This fit the bill perfectly. We really like the fact that it is dual power so if there is a shortage of gas we are still able to run it. Hopefully we won't need it but it sure is nice to know that it is ready to go in the event of an emergency.

This model of generator is very easy to use, reliable, and has the added benefit of being able to run on gasoline or propane. It’s the perfect size for emergency home backup or construction site use. It is relatively lightweight and easy to move around with its wheels and handle. I would highly recommend this model to anyone that needs a smallish portable generator.

I bought this during Hurricane Ian and it was a life saver. Easy to start and plenty of power to run my refrigerator and small appliances and charge the phones. The only minor complaint was the oil dipstick was very easy to put back in just a little crooked so that oil spewed. I became adept at adjusting it carefully.

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.

Easy to set up and operate the first time, both fuel types. 4 star rating only because the unit was a tad louder than I had anticipated but very glad I made the purchase. This size of generator will be useful for a backup at home (a few items) and to take camping.

This Westinghouse - WGen5300DFv seemed to have the best value out there. It is well built and I love the option to use propane or gas. It was easy to assemble the wheels and supports. The engine oil was also easy to add with the oil tube provided. They have covered all the bases well!
