Exceeds Expectations!!!

When Hurricane Beryl hit, we were without power for over 5 days. This generator was our saving grace. Not only did it give us countless hours of power, it was so easy to get it started! Not to mention that gas was scarce so it's ability to use propane WORKED LIKE A CHARM. I definitely recommend this product to everybody.

Westinghouse 5300DFcv Dual Fuel Generator

This dual fuel generator meets my needs. It runs on propane so it requires less maintenance that gas generators. It is compact. It's light (136 lbs) enough for me to manage on my own. It provides enough 240 volt power to run our important circuits during and outage. Its ready to hook up directly to a 30 Amp/240 volt transfer switch.

Easy to put together and get running.

Out of the box and assembled easily. Started right up and had no issues so far. The oil funnel that was supplied is awesome since it threads in and has a rubber gasket to stop spillage and made oil filling painless. I live above 5000 feet and would have liked the high altitude kits to be supplied but over all I am happy I bought this unit. It seems to run fine at this altitude but after reading instructions I think I will get more performance with the kit installed.

Easy to set up, got running quick

Bought this generator a few weeks ago. Happy with it so far. Only ran about 15 minutes so far on propane and it seems to be running well. The manual for starting was a bit confusing with what it says to do with the choke on a cold start but I figured it out.

Excellent Quality

I bought this generator for my newly purchased home. Setup was easy and the instructions were very clear. I ran the generator for about 30 minutes while trying various loads. Everything worked flawlessly. I look forward to using this for camping and emergency power during hurricane season.

Perfect size

I bought this as a simple backup in case of emergencies. It's a great size, not too heavy for even a young teenager to roll around using the provided handle and wheels. Absolutely fantastic that it comes with the wheel kit! Love the fact that it will run off of both propane or gasoline. Lots of built-in options for this item with the plugs that it has built in. Really fantastic. Also, there's an excellent price with a good long warranty. I'm very happy.

Great generator

Used our Westinghouse 5300 for the first time after we lost power with hurricane Beryl. We opted to use the propane since we had several full tanks. Easy setup and startup. Very satisfied. It ran like a champ and powered our freezer and a couple fans in the house with no issues at all. One can of propane lasted about 10 hours.

Love this genset

I just received this genset a few days ago. The instruction book was very good--it gave simple, straight forward instructions on how to set up the unit. I ran it on both gasoline and propane, and on both, it started on the very first pull!! Relatively quiet for the amount of power it provides.

Great Options

Love all the options with this Generator. Multiple plug types and optional fuel is great for our camper. We don't dry camp often but power was an issue one time when we almost ran out of gas. We left a day early to prevent this and having this unit could have got us enough time. One feature I wish these or any other generator had is a tube that routes draining the oil as it is always a mess. No matter how you try to prevent it, oil just seems to get on something and makes a mess but placement of the drain or a tube that routes to an open space would definitely help and be a big feature for someone to make the purchase.

Perfect Size & Features

I purchased this generator almost two months ago to use around the farm and to provide emergency power should the electricity service go down. I opted for the manual start instead of battery start as there might be long periods of time when I don't use it and I didn't want to have to rely on the battery to start it, plus the cost difference wasn't worth it for me. Being able to run on either gasoline or propane allows me great flexibility when it comes to fuel sources. The generator always starts on the 2nd pull. IMHO it's not too loud like some other units. I have used the generator to power my air compressor, drills, saws, grinders, and even my 50 Amp plasma cutter. Great buy!
