Good Product. Instructions & Price

Bought this to replace a higher priced generator that was giviing me trouble the day before a hurricane was forecasted. I purchased, assembled & had backup power the night before the storm. I have yet to read/study the entire product & documentation. But it seems to be 1st class

Westinghouse dual/fuel general

The reason I bought this generator is cause I had read they were very good. I do lots of hunting and our hunting camp needed a generator I liked the fact that It runs on gasoline or propane. I myself have already used it on propane and really liked it. I plan to use it at my house when electricity goes out.

Great generator

Purchased this generator in preparation for hurricane season, and did it come in handy when Hurricane Ida hit and left me with no lights for days. I was able to power a window unit, fridge, deep freezer, and other things. If you don’t have a generator I would recommend to buy this one or a bigger one to fit your needs. I loved the option of switching from gas to propane it was an easy transition.

Love the dual fuel and ease to transport it.

Because we live in Alabama in an area where we are prone to have a hurricane, we needed a generator for when the lights will go out for a few days. We found this portable generator in our price range, easy to store, and also of the dual fuel capacity that it has. Also, we can run multiple appliances off of it at the same time.

Excellent value for the price

I actually just bought this the same day I'm doing this review. I went on to register after running past the 5 hour break-in period with no issues. After testing a variation of appliances while running my heat tape on my roof, since it's been snowing, while running both gasoline and propane, I'm impressed with the wattage output of the Wgen5300. Typically, if you don't experience any issues within the break-in period, you aren't likely to have any in the future, outside of wear and tear. After seeing how this generator preforms after 6 hours of running, I intend on keeping this unit for many years. This is the first generator I've owned that'll run on propane and I must say, while I intend to primarily use gas, the propane will come in handy. It still seems to have plenty of power for what I needed even though it's downrated to 4800 running watts. I thought I'd test to see how seamless it can transfer from propane to gas or vice versa. I was able to switch it over to propane while it was sputtering out of gas without it ever dieing. I'm happy with my purchase and after using an 8 year old Duro Max 4400 that still works excellent, I'm not regretting my new purchase.

GOOD GENERATOR

I just bought this generator and did the break-in procedure, which I found on YouTube. So far it's been good. A draw back is where the oil change port is located. Being located above part of the frame makes an oil change a very messy job. Beyond that, it was easy to start up from cold.

Runs on Propane

Was looking for something to get me through occasional power outages in a rural area, but didn’t want to have to deal with fuel stabilizer for gasoline all the time. It works like it says and was super easy to get started up. I am happy with my purchase.

Nice Generator

I bought this last month and so far it has been just as I expected. Although I wish it had electric start, it starts easily without it. I also like the fact that I can use it with propane instead of gasoline. Another thing I liked was the price. Comparable units at other stores were a lot more expensive.

Will not run Sensitive

I bought 2 of these (1 for my office and 1 for my house) They worked great on propane and better on Gas. They do have DIRTY power HZ was fluctuating from 58 - 62. Would not run my ups for my computers. Caution the box clearly said they would power computers and TV. There Tech support told me they should not be used for sensitive electronics. They need to FIX the boxes!!!
