I bought this product about a month ago, and I so happy we did before storm season! The user manual and tools made set up and assembly quick and easy. The maintenance portion of the manual breaks things down simply so I can be fully prepped for the season ahead.

I just bought this on December 1st. I haven't had a chance to fully use it yet. Got it all set up and started it up to break in. Easily started up (especially when you turn the fuel line on! haha) and put a small load on it and ran fine. A little noisy if you are right next to it, otherwise it performed as I expected. We get power outages occasionally and I have two refrigerators I would like to keep running during that time. I also have a RV and the fact that this unit is dual fuel is one of the main reasons I purchased it. I look forward to using it on the road and trying it out on propane.

We bought this and have been extremely happy. We have never worked or owned a generator before this...it was easy to assemble directly out of the box and had clear, user friendly guide for start up and storage. It started right up and have not had any issue. The ability to go between gas and propane is a plus....literally just a flip of the switch. No regrets!

Bought this and was very pleased to see how easy the setup was. Runs great, haven't had to use it yet other than just testing it out upon arrival. Only complaint I have is the funnel they provided. Makes it hard to get the oil in the reservoir due to its length and shape. Other than that, very pleased so far.

I recently bought this generator because the power goes out constantly where I live, and this thing has been an absolute life saver. I cannot recommend enough haven't a backup generator has changed me and my family's life. This Westinghouse general is fantastic. The build quality is among the best I've seen and has more than enough juice to power my whole house. We had it hooked up to a transfer switch and it's perfect because this Genny comes ready for that. The dual fuel option is really nice as well. Also it comes with everything you need in the box except fuel. This generator was hands down the best value I could find i definitely recommend Westinghouse generators they are some of the best on the market.

We were wondering if this generator would be an appropriate size for our house and it was. We thought about getting something larger but wanted it to be something we could move easily. We read the instructions and made sure we have everything we need. It's a great generator!

After the last power outage of 8 hours in 10 degree weather, this generator was top on my list for preparedness. Reasonable price, needed wattage for my house, 20/30 amp, 120/240 - perfect for my home needs. Setup was a breeze, no instructions needed to install wheels and dampers. Adsed the included oil, waited to add fuel until I slowly cycled the pull starter 10 times to get oil to internals. Added a gallon of fuel, turned on the run switch and choke, started on the FIRST PULL. Turned choke off after about 45-50 seconds, engine smoothed out and the voltage hit 120 and leveled in maybe 5 seconds. Flipped to 240, hit voltage in 5 seconds. Let it run another minute, switched back to 120, leveled off in 5 seconds. LOVE the threaded oil funnel and the included 4 stroke oil was exactly the correct amount. As I stated, this generator could not have been easier to set up and get running. WELL worth the price and I don't have to worry about power outages any more.

We have had a major snowstorm and ice storm within a week of each other. Lost power both times! We bought this right before the first storm hit and it has really come through helping us run the essentials. Highly recommend this if you need power! Amazing and grateful buy!!!!

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.

After assembling the feet and wheels I added the oil and gas to the generator. Upon turning the fuel to on, gasoline was leaking from the fuel line. There was a tear on the fuel line likely when they pulled the hose clamp on. I bought some fuel line from a local hardware store and replaced the torn hose. It's running pretty good. Also, the wheels could be better than plastic toy-like ones at this price point.
