Great Generator

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.

Great Portable Generator

Great features and great pricing! Excels all of its potentials. Love the fact that it uses two different fuel types. Generator is easy to operate. Very happy with our purchase. Note: If using in high altitude 5000 ft and above, you will need a carburetor kit and DF regulator. Parts numbers are located in the manual. We are at an altitude of 6700 ft.

Won't start on propane.

Great price but will only start on gasoline. Worked with customer service who sent a part which I changed out. Started one time after that on propane only. After that will only start on gasoline. Runs fine once started. Waiting for further customer service assistance. Unfortunately it looks like I will have to load this heavy thing in my truck and drive it to a service center. Not too happy about that.

Gen 5300DFv

Shipping was perfect. Assembly took no time at all. I think this generator will be a great balance between work, a trailer generator and a home back-up generator via transfer switch. Instruction manual is easy to understand. I am glad to have dual fuel, and plan to use mostly propane because the maintenance seems to be easier than gas

So far, so good

Unpacked the unit, installed wheels and feet and connected propane tank. Fired up and ran for a few minutes. Then poured some treated fuel in the tank and ran it on gasoline for a few minutes. Didn’t yet apply any load but it looks like it’s ready to go for the next time we lose power.

Convenience with dual fuel

After research many kind of portable generator, I decided to purchase Wgen5300dfv with a lot of good features that I need but low price. This generator can run for fridge, fans, portable heater or ac. In special, I can store propane for operating it that is not wory about fire if storing fuel. I am so pleasure with this generator.

Great generator

Purchased this generator in preparation for hurricane season, and did it come in handy when Hurricane Ida hit and left me with no lights for days. I was able to power a window unit, fridge, deep freezer, and other things. If you don’t have a generator I would recommend to buy this one or a bigger one to fit your needs. I loved the option of switching from gas to propane it was an easy transition.

Great Features

I bought the dual fuel generator to make sure I was prepared for hurricane Francine. I love the fact that it can run off of either gasoline or propane. The advantage of using propane is that it runs quiet and there's no gas fumes. The only issue I had was that it didn't want to run at first. Until I downloaded the quick start manual and read it everything else was history.

Good Generator

Worked great and easy to start up. Be aware that it is not a quiet or low noise generator. You can hear it inside the house. Not an issue for me but be aware if it is for you. The value is good, and it is made in Vietnam. This was the selling point for me.

Perfect

After a year of multiple power outages and ruined food, we decided to finally get a generator that could at least keep food cold. We chose this model because it was affordable and had excellent features for the price point. Once we got it home, we were impressed by the quality of the generator. It's solidly built, not flimsy at all, nor is it overly loud and obnoxious. Overall, we're happy that we won't have to worry about ruined food anymore, should we have any more power outages.
