Great Generator

I've had this generator for over a year and have used it many times. It starts easily and ran all day on 1 tank. It saved our food on a 2 day power outage (ran lights and 2 refrigerators) and is now being used daily to run tools in an area that has no electricity. Highly recommend!

Quick and easy set up!

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.

Simple as it gets.

Unpack the generator, put the gas in, pull the cord and it started right up. This generator had no problem pulling for an air conditioner a swamp cooler and a couple of fans plus the refrigerator during a 7 hour power outage, used about half a tank of gas.

Easy to put it together and get started

I bought this because of the great reviews and cost. Have several friends that bought other brands and they are not satisfied. I have only used it once so far but it was easy to get going. I would like it better if it had an extension bar to pull/roll it where I need to station it. It's also a great size for small storage areas. Very satisfied. I already recommended it to a co-worker and her husband really likes it too.

So far so good

Unit runs and has a nice selection of plugs. The process of filling the oil with the included funnel will make you feel like you’re on a hidden camera show. It’s absolutely horrible. Also, at this price point you should have an app giving you constant fuel and oil levels with alerts.

Great Solution

Purchased during extended power outage following hurricane Helene. Easy set-up. Only had to add oil (included in box) and has. Easy on gas compared to other generators I've used. Did exactly what it was supposed to do without any unexpected hassles. Very pleased and will look at Westinghouse again for larger unit in near future.

Quality product

Impressed with generator, minor assembly easy, quality product. Dual fuel, started on propane since no residue if not required for a while. After a tornado 2 years ago and power outages in Texas last winter, not rolling the dice again. Pleasex with purchase and accessories.

Awesome product

I bought this generator as an emergency due to a power outage we had following a storm here in Pennsylvania just a few days ago. I must say this was a great buy. The generator was easy to set up. The instructions are very clear and detailed as to what to do and not do. From taking it out the box to have it up and running I would say 15 mins top and that’s because I have no experience in dealing with generators. This was my first time. I used it with propane and it worked wonderfully. I was able to keep my fridges going all 3 of them, charge our phones and even have my daughters nebulizer running giving her breathing treatments. This generator was truly a great purchase. I al planning on purchasing another one.

You won't regret buying a Westinghouse generator

This is my third Westinghouse generator. The other two are still going strong after many years of use and I like the new features on this one. No need to go with a "H' or "G" brands, Westinghouse generators are a better value and I've found them to be reliable.

Heavy duty and reliable!

Power outages are very common in my area. The wGEN5300dfv is reliable and most important, POWERFUL! We not only use it for home power outages but for tail gating and camping. It’s heavy duty and the price is amazing for what you get out of it. The competitors offer way less for way more. Definitely investing in my second Westinghouse!
