This has got to be one of the best purchases my husband and i have ever made. We have always needed one but kept putting it off. Finally we decided to get one, and we were very excited. When it finally came, it was like Christmas. Actually, it almost was. My husband picked it up, brought it home and it fired right up. So no worries for us when the power goes out, because it probably will. I love knowing now i will have some back-up. Thank you so much Westinghouse!

I bought this last month and started using it on camps and outdoor trips. It’s light weight and easy to move around. It also lasted for hours and it didn’t feel like it guzzled so much oil and gas for it to last. I feel happy getting this item for my household.

This thing is a beast right out of the box! Very sturdy and just feels like it has great quality. Started it up and it’s not as loud as I thought my would be, and so far the power is pretty consistent on a 25% load. Assembly was a breeze! Not bad so far!

Westinghouse generator review I put off getting a generator for too long… Several months ago, we lost power and were without power for two days – not long but long enough to worry about when the power would be restored and potential problems of pipes freezing throughout the house including our heating system (hot water baseboard heat). I searched the internet for reviews and product information. Based on favorable reviews along with good pricing, I chose the Westinghouse WGen5300 to power my house for essential service items in the event of an extended power outage. The unit was delivered on time, undamaged and the installation instructions made easy work for the setup and testing. We have yet to use this during an emergency but were ready to go. No worries for the next power outage ….

I have been shopping for a 5K generator for over a month and looked at several brands and models. The Westinghouse WGen series are by far some of the most well built I've seen. I bought the WGen5300sc. Put oil and gas in it, I started on the second pull. The frame construction is heavy duty. The components are mounted securely and the wiring is neat and tidy. Overall it shows great craftsmanship. While I've not used it much the craftsmanship of the generator leaves me confident it is a dependable unit.

I love the dual fuel options and the backup power that this model WGen5300 DFv produces. I'm planning to hire a licensed electrician to install a subpanel + inlet to be hardwired to my house for future unexpected power outage. --That I hope that will never happen in our City. But if it does, at least we're now ready. Thanks.

I bought this a couple months ago and put it together. Easy assembly. I ran it for about 20 minutes and it ran great. I stored it in an outside plastic storage shed for almost 2 months and decided to get it out to run it just to make sure it was good to go in case of an emergency. It started leaking gas immediately from the carburetor. Not sure what happened while it was sitting in a shed for 2 months...

I bought this just over a week ago, had an issue with the oil dipstick that I can't seem to get resolved. I have talked to a person (after a long wait on hold) and sent e-mails, still have no resolution to this minor issue. This part must be the least expensive on the whole unit, yet I can't seem to get satisfaction!

With our power constantly going out and a total electric trailer, I knew I had to have backup power for heat this winter. This generator was within my price range and will provide the security I need during power outages. It was easy to set up and started right up. It’s light enough to move around. Haven’t actually needed it yet but I’m so glad I have it

Great unit able to power most of my house when we loose power. We use our generators a lot since we live in the woods. Unit works well and is fuel efficient. My only complaint about the unit itself is that the oil dip stick is in a strange spot and makes it a bit tricky to fill the oil without making a mess. Unit was damaged with it being shipped, but will works as it should (for now). 5 year warranty helps ease my worries.
