I live in the dessert and it gets very hot so I bought this generator to use during power outages in the summer months, I haven’t had to use it yet but it’s nice to know that i have a reliable generator to use just in case. Packaging is very sturdy so had no damage or issues during shipping. I highly recommend this generator.

Bought this a few months back. Had an interlock and a 30amp line wired to my panel. My whole house is electric and powers the whole house. Only thing I have to do is run either the hot water heater or furnace/AC seperate cant run them both at the same time. No deal breaker

I worked with the U.S. Army Generator 2Kw for 20 years while while working with Mobile Kitchen Trailer (MKT). The quality of workmanship by Westinghouse Generator WGen5300DFv is outstanding. It runs great, noise level is lower than other generators around this size or model. I'm going to purchase another one for my food truck business. Very happy with this Generator

Just bought this generator in case of power outage and haven’t used it yet, but I wanted the storage cover from this review. Outside of operation, this generator has great information and packed well. This review could be bumped up a star but it wouldn’t be a fair review since I haven’t used it yet.

We had a power outage for 8hours. 8hours! The operation instructions were straightforward and made a stressful situation manageable. Westinghouse made it easy to get started by including everything in the box. We only needed the fuel source and voila. We had power. We didn’t run a full load; we powered the modem for internet and about four electronic devices. The generator performed efficiently and powerfully for hours on end. It’s portable so it was easy to place exactly where we needed to run the power cord. Thanks W for making our inconvenience, “comfortable” with your outstanding performance 5300/4800 generator. We’re confident this portable

I just received this today and assembled it. It took a minute to get it started (waiting on fuel to get to carburetor). It ran good and powered my air compressor with no problems. I will need to run it for a while to give a better review, but for now I'm satisfied with my purchase.

Bought this generator to protect the items I keep in 3 different freezers; we had a winter storm and lost power for almost 24 hours. Fueled it about halfway to get it started, worked very well; when I ran out of gas, I connected my backup gas tank for my BBQ grill and it started with no issues. My only issue is with the instructions, which ask you to move the Choke to 'On', after the generator has started; when I did that, it started to rattle and it didn't sound right, so I moved it back to 'Off' and it worked just fine

I bought this earlier this week anticipating a huge winter event (still waiting for it). Right out of the box it was simple to mount the wheels and pads. I hooked mine up to propane as I have a few portable tanks around and in just a couple of pulls we were running smooth. It seems to be a great generator that is simple to use. I hope I really don’t have to find out how well it works in a snow/ice storm, but I’d recommend anyone looking for an inexpensive option for a bit of back up power give it a try!

I haven't used this yet, it was a gift for emergencies. It is super solid and seems well built. I like that it has a ton of features but I really like the idea that it can run on gasoline and propane. If I don't have one on hand I always have the other. The stoppers and wheels go on easily. The hardest part was getting the box in the house lol. Don't forget to buy a generator cable to use with it

Just got this generator and it started right away after I added the oil and gas. Ran good from gas to LPG no big deal to switch over Ran my Travel Trailer A/C with no bogging down. Hope it last for a long time. Will do another review later in camping season.
