I just recently bought this item due to threatening weather. But haven’t used it yet. So far what I’m seeing is a really nice generator. It came with the wheels which is super helpful moving it. I love that it is portable and looks easy to set up. When I need to use it, I’ll be sure and let you know how it is working. I did purchase this particular brand and model as it is affordable and it got high reviews.

I originally purchased a WGen3600 but discovered belatedly it could not connect directly to my circuit panel to provide backup house power because the little guy didn't put out 240 volts. My bad for not checking specs more closely when comparing different sizes and makes. So my new purchase is the WGen5300 that does put out 240v. I got another Westinghouse this time, rather than a competitor of comparable size, because I really like the small WGen. Like that one, the larger brother is rugged, easy to set up and operate. I especially like the electric start feature. Now, my power will never go out again.

We upgraded a 30 yr. old pull start generator to this one after a 2-day power outage in July. Assembled quickly and started right up. Very nice and compact unit, smaller than the old one with a little more power. The push button start is wonderful. My wife can even set this one up and start it if needed. Since then, had another 24-hr. power outage and this unit got a work out. No issues at all. Even uses less gas than the old one.

I bought this in case of power outage at our house. Assembles nicely and has a nice padded handle. The oil filler tool was quite handy as well, although it could have been a liiiitle longer or wider at the opening. Wish it had one or two more 120 outlets, but it starts first pull and runs like a champ.

I bought this during hurricane season 2021 right before hurricane Ida was expected hit our area. It came on time. Although we did not need it due to Ida changing course, it gave us a peace of mind knowing we would be comfortable if we did. During hurricane Laura and the ice storm we desperately need a generator. We did not want to go through that again so purchasing this one was a sigh of relief. Its easy to use and works great! Love it. Thank you

We bought the generator about one week ago. And the expectations go more than beyond of excellence, quality. The price is awesome in comparison with other brands. The measures are perfect for us and fit to cover all we want in home. ***** I 200% recomend this product.

I’ve been running the generator just to make sure it will work during a hurricane and it seems to run very well. I put a load on it and it ran like a champ. I really enjoy the push start, and I was very surprised how quiet it is compared to our older one.

It looks good with nice features like the electric start and no need for a battery charger since this unit charges as it runs just like your vehicle but even if you have to use the recoil pull option its really easy to pull n starts on about the 2nd pull so its easy enough for just about anyone to start it,not real loud either so if you have a shed or something to store n run it in you won't be bothered by noise,the digital read out is really nice feature to.

This is the first generator I have ever purchased. After doing my homework and finding out what I would require, I found this Westinghouse portable generator and it accommodates all of my needs. Easy to use and very helpful and informative instructions takes you step by step for all us first time users. Very pleased with the product. Thank you!

I purchased this generator for backup power during occasional outages in our area. I researched and read reviews for several generators before deciding on this Westinghouse model. It seemed to have everything I needed at a very reasonable price. It was easy to assemble and fired right up. I like the optional electric/pull start. It works well on both. I am replacing an older generator I have had for a while. This one is much quieter and easier to start. I have only run it for about an hour, stopping and starting several times, to test it out but I am very satisfied so far and feel like this was a good purchase
