Generator

It seems to be good started right up. Have only ran it on propane. Still haven’t received my free cover

Everything I needed.

Just got it and very pleased, started on the first pull. Enough power and size to do the job I need.

No visible damage but will not start

I purchased this generator to prepare for an ice storm but it will not start. The recoil rope start will not retract but is stuck halfway out.

Works and starts with no problems

Haven't used it on an power outage but did the first start off. It worked like a charm the both times i started the generator. A little loud but it's ok.

Great features for a Great Price!

Bought the GEN5300 dual fuel this month and it got here right on time before we got “freezing temperature” warning. Love the dual fuel (gas/propane) function. Very easy to switch from 120v to 240v in case I need to run my emergency transfer case breaker in our home. Thanks for making it simple to use WestingHouse.

Peace of mind! The generator is all we expected.

As a person who uses oxygen - this generator is life-protection for me! DURING HURRICANE it worked so beautifully - could not possibly ask for more peace and security. STARTED EASILY ON VERY FIRST TRY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GENERATOR FOR YOU!

Getting ready for Hurricane Season

We bought this to be prepared for hurricane season in south Alabama. The only thing we noticed was the oil fill plug/dipstick is made of plastic and it was hard to rethread it into the metal oil fill spout. It started with the first pull of the cord!!

Great product !

I bought this product after looking at reviews for products in the price range I had. This is a good amount of energy production and was excited to find out that it could be powered by propane and gas fuel. I do have to say that it’s a little noisier than I thought. But of course, the nose does not affect its function. Definitely would buy it again!

wGEN5300DFcv is a power horse

after a bad storm "derecho" lost power for seven days after the third day decided to find someplace that had a generator and we got lucky not knowing a darn thing about generators this was so easy to use and work and ran great and did what we needed it to do for us.

I bought the generator a day ago and looking at all the reviews on this particular generator I really like what I’ve seen. I don’t have too much time with this generator but it’s gonna run my trailer RV very well. It’s got all the power I need for my RV, love it
