Bought this Generator after the summer's fires here in Oregon that knocked out our electricity for several days. The 5300S included all the parts that are often extra on other brands. This includes the battery, engine oil, good wheels, and even a quick inline disconnect for the battery. It has all the features that are important. This a generator that is built to last for years.

We finally had our first power outage since purchasing this 3 months ago. It started right up and ran everything flawlessly including my septic pump. I was careful to not overload it by tracking what appliances were running at once but you can certainly make the most out of the 5300 watt generator. This generator is also quieter and more fuel efficient than many of the competitors and offers a great bang for the buck!

fast shipping arrived within 4 working days. basically put the wheels on, filled with oil that was provided & filled with gas. plugged it in, choked it for a second & pushed the start button started right up. love..love love it. checked it after turning off main breaker to house & had no problem running furnace a couple of lights TV & refrigerator, but it will run the whole house & not break the bank buying it. Best purchase weve made in a long time.

I broke my arm and was no longer able to pull start my generator. This is perfect for my needs. It runs my whole house. I just flip the lever on the transfer box. I have it stored in an outside storage unit so I don’t have to move it. Just lift the lid, open the doors and away it goes. Couldn’t be happier!❤️❤️❤️

I bought this generator and it works great but like others I'm worried about hidden damage because my generator back cover was also dented and had taken a hard hit sometime during shipping.After seeing other people with same damage something should be done to protect the generator better during shipping.

I bought this generator a couple weeks ago after we just had a bad storm that knocked out our power for a few days. This should keep us up and running if it ever happens again. Lots of features. Plenty of power for the necessities. It was delivered right to my house and was easy to assemble. Only had to put on the feet and wheels. Haven’t had to use it yet but so far looks to be a great product.

our insurance policy for power outages here in Pa.being we are both in our mid 60's wanted to make sure my wife could start this if i am no longer around. well she got it started on her 2nd pull. feels good to know she can have electricity during an outage.

Shipped in perfect condition. Filled it with gas and oil, and it started up on the first pull. I'm very impressed with all of it, from the low price, to the care in packaging / shipping, to the obvious quality of the generator, and all the owner's literature that comes with it.

I had this generator for less than 2 weeks and it started to mess up. It would not run using push to start. If i hand craked it, it would run for 10-30 seconds and shut off. The spark pulg burnt up within a few runs. When it runs, it works great. It has a long battery life and holds all my equipment well. However it is one of the loudest generators that i have had/heard. Not too heavy to pickup if there are 2 people. Easy to move around with the handle and tires.

Just used this generator over the weekend for about 28 hours straight during our power outage. Let me first say that this generator did not disappoint. Easy prep work for installation of wheels and adding oil. Filling gas to about 5 gallons simple too. Plugged the wire connectors for battery starter w ease. Put choke on and immediately it fired right up! About 2-3 minutes put choke on middle idle for another 2-3 minutes. It was then ready for full throttle run and hook up to house. Got a 30amp outside outlet wired to my panel box so had the plug in cord bought separately. Once house main breaker off I switched panel over to the 30amp power coming from generator. Flipped house breakers for furnace, refrigerator, microwave, room outlets and ceiling lights. This generator could easily handle this power load which was very sufficient running the minimum needed in our house. Added more gas around 13 hours later and again next morning. So in total over 10 gallons plus for 28 hours before power was restored. Very pleased went to bed and woke up not worrying it would run out of gas. Had to turn couple house breakers off to run stove for cooking, but otherwise never needed to push this generator to its limits. I’m extremely happy with this generators performance. The price is right for size and output. Very lightweight when moving on wheels and doesn’t take much space up when storing in garage. No more uneasiness worrying about losing power ever again now that I own this generator. A total must have for homeowners!
