I bought this generator to be ready for winter and icy weather. I put oil in it and hooked it up to a propane tank, pulled the rope 3 times and it fired right up. It is not too loud but it does sound like a generator and run very smooth. It is the perfect size to run the essentials needed if we loose power.

Bought this generator a year ago in preparation for the next major storm. Generator sat in its box in the shed for a year until Hurricane Helene hit us the other day. Broke out the generator, added the oil that came with it, hooked up the propane, and it fired right up with no issues whatsoever. My WGen5300DFv worked straight out of the box after sitting for a year. I am happy to say I am truly blessed at the performance and power of this model. I was running 2 floor fans, light, 2 refrigerators, and my deep freezer with ZERO ISSUES or Concerns. THANK YOU Westinghouse for an outstanding product. You bailed me out when needed and as I stated before I am truly thankful.

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.

This Generator perfect for my needs, 5300 watts and dual fuel. Looks and runs great, with nice features like RV & 220 volt plug in, love the funnel that was included with the threaded end that screws in to the opening where oil plug is so there is no mess when adding or changing oil. Very happy with this purchase.

We recently purchased this Westinghouse generator after going through two hurricanes in two weeks. We lost a refrigerator full of food 2x. We are very impressed with this generator. Well made, easy to start and easy to hook up. Runs our refrigerator, portable AC as well as lamps and chargers for cell phones.

Strong and sturdy. has a collapsable towing handle. I read the manual and assemble as it stated.The 10 mill wrench is in the tool kit and the wheels are quick to install with the wave type cotter pins. I feel the service of the unit should be right after the assembly or when it states to service oil prior to start it probably should say on page 24. The fuel selector switch was in propane so just give it a once over prior to pulling the rope. I just started it to let it run off the factory smell and to make sure it would run when I need it. I hope I can follow up later what a review using the propane part also.

I have looked a a large number of generator brands with many different configurations. The two most important features were duel fuel and a AC/CA 120/240V 30A outlet. This generator has both of those features along with many others. The price was well in the range of our budget. It was clear that this generator was the perfect fit to provide emergency power to our small rural are condo. We will eventually have the wiring installed so we will be able to provide power anywhere in the condo as needed. I'm ready to give a shake down.

I purchased this generator after a recent power outage lasting three days. The unit appears to be well built. Assembly (wheels and feet) was quick and simple. I was impressed that this unit is dual fuel. I had never seen that before in a small generator. The only thing that I am unsure of is the 240 volt/120 volt selector switch. It appears that you cannot run a 120 volt item at the same time you run a 240 volt item. For example, I could not run my well pump and at the same time have a lamp on in the house. If this is the case, I can work around it. My well pump, hot water heater and stove are probably all the 240 volt that I would use. Probably would not use the dryer. And then I could only use one at a time. This unit was purchased as an emergency power generator to be used at my home during utility power outages. So, it may not get a lot of use. I have not actually run this unit yet but plan to do the one hour break in soon so that it will be ready to go should I need it.

I bought this generator because it can run on propane . This was what I was looking for ( I didn't want to worry about gas stabilization during non use).It solved my need for a backup power system when I loose city power due to a storm. I gave it 4 stars due to no electric start .

I bought this a few months ago and I am very happy with the outcome of it. When we had a power outage I was able to turn it on with no problem in this generator was able to turn on all my necessity items for example my refrigerator my stove and almost all my lights in the house. Great product great power the only feature that I would’ve liked to have was a remote start feature but overall this product was great and it did the work.
