BY CARRYING THE NAME OF WESTINGHOUSE SHOWS IT IS A CAPABLE AND QUALIFIED PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. USING THE 22 AMP RECEPTACLE MAKES UNIT CAPABLE TO HANDLE COMPLETE TRI-LEVEL HOME. THIS GENERATOR IS A VALUABLE TOOL FOR HOME ELECTRICAL BACK UP USE. VERY SATISFIED WITH THIS UNIT.

Runs and powers a few things. This will keep my refrigerator and freezer going as well as lights and some small space heaters. Should run the water heater if I turn the refrigerator and freezer off during the process. Came with a broken spark plug boot (igniter kit assembly part #50100022), but may have been dropped in transit, as it seems an axle was a little bent, but I expect Westinghouse will send a replacement boot. It fired up right away once I glued and taped the boot together for a break-in run. Some LED lights in the house flicker with generator motor variations, but I expect you would need an inverter generator if you were picky about that. Some LED’s do not handle even small voltage variations very well.

This 5300 doesn't come with electric start. It started on the first pull after adding fuel and crankcase oil. Run absolutely dead smooth. Super well packed and in pristine condition right out of the box. Decent wheels. Much better wheels than come in the aftermarket kits.

Bought this portable generator as a backup to my standby generator. I opted for the dual fuel to keep from having to deal with gasoline while exercising it. Tested both 120V and 240V under load and found it to be acceptable. Actual voltage was 122V and 244V with no load which matched the volt meter. Frequency was a 62.3 Hz and also matched the meter on the generator. Also, much quieter than my other backup generator which is 20 years old. So far so good.

I bought this generator after the hurricane that hit Texas, thank God we were one of the lucky few that were left without electricity for only 2 days but it was difficult, for this reason I bought it to be prepared, I hope it will be of great help to me.

I bought this when calling for winter weather (snow, ice, power outages) and it worked great. I wanted a generator that could use more than just gas and this one is dual fuel and is easy to change from one fuel type to the next. It is heavy so the wheels are very useful. This generator is also quiet but can power multiple items at a time.

The only bad thing i have found so far is both of the blue covers (alternator and pull cord) definitely get beat up during packaging. the box looked perfect but both have some dents and paint chipping. other than that it's smaller than i expected and meets all of my requirements. if i have issues i'll update my review, but the setup was easy.

I purchased this as a farm use generator. I need use of an air compressor, and other corded tools and equipment. It'll also be a back power supply when necessary. So far so good. It has run a 5 HP compressor with no problem along with a grinder and sander. Seems to run quite a long time, but I really haven't run it at it's max. But, seems to be good enough for me if it can run an heavy duty air compressor.

I bought this a month ago and so happy I did. I live in Houston Texas and I need to be prepared if it's easy for me and my son to start it up to make sure that it would fire up and it has A drain to empty excess gas and it works on the propane too. It started up really nice and I like the wheels. It's just peace of mind Knowing that I can put my refrigerator, a fan, television or my phones or whatever!

We had a power outage in Texas. It is summer and we had no electricity meaning no air conditioner. I bought this product and plugged it into my refrigerator, freezer, 2 fans and small electronics and ran it for 1 1/2 days feeling it up twice. It served us perfectly. I accidently put in the wrong serial number it is actually 53c12211334578
