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 am really happy with the Westinghouse 5300 duel fuel generator I purchased because dealing with propane power is very easy. With my last generator, I had to deal with harsh gasoline and thoroughly cleaning up the tiny spillage here and there upon refilling the thing with a gas can (which also permeats the air with fumes). The Westinghouse is great.

Bought this as a backup power source for my home incase of inclement weather. I haven't had time to test it under emergency conditions. However, from receiving it from the shipper and assembling and running it for a hour. It started and ran flawless.

Took 10 days to have delivered. We had bad storm that left us without SWEPO for 4 days. We borrowed a generator for lights & refrigerator. No A/C. It was hot, close to 100 deg. Unboxed generator. Assembled, hooked up to propane. Started up perfectly. This one will run a small window A/C plus other necessities.

Just received my 5300v genny and in short order I had it oiled up and running. Ran like a top during the first hour of break in. Like that it has plenty of power for major appliances during a power outage. Only minor gripe so far is it's a little hard to start requiring several strong pulls. Overall lots of good features and lots of usable power at its price. Don't think you could find a better deal for the money!

I have never purchased a generator before. The packaging was excellent. The instructions were thorough and clear. It was easy to set up, run for an hour, and then try it. The generator worked great and the two wheels on the dolly made it easy for me to move it on both paved and shell driveways.

Bought the 4000.. first time out froze up as we are camping.. Bought the 4375 ..had issues. Tiny sound. Bought the 6875. Too heavy..gas hog and way loud at 25 ft. Thru a breaker not at the generator but in the camper panel box. They went back! Purchased the Westinghouse. Amazed..quiet...energy efficient..weight easy to lift. Handles the camper very well.

This generator was the best Watt/Cost ratio. It has an easy pull start, you don't need a battery or worry about it being charged. I chose the gas only version over propane because unless you have a stationary tank, you still need to stop any generator in order to switch fuel type, you would need to take care of the additional propane tank, and running on propane reduces the maximum wattage. Other features included that other generators at this price don't have: roll cage, wheels, digital gauge with voltage, frequency, hours, and use timer. With a 5300 running watts limit, it runs with no problem my big fridge, a crockpot, 50" LCD TV, DVD player, 2 tablets, 2 cell phones, and a fan. Planning to add a window AC unit and when winter comes, a space heater. Also planning to add an interlock switch to run the lights and the furnace.

I bought this after reading many generator reviews. Westinghouse was highly rated and I see why. It has a lot of features and is well designed and put together very well. I picked this size for a balance between fuel economy and power. I appreciate its mobility and reasonable weight (135 pounds). And the auto start is a great feature for us older folks.

I bought this generator about 3 weeks ago. It was easy to assemble. Everything that was needed came in the box. The directions didn't tell you how much oil to add, but I used the entire bottle that was included. I haven't actually run this generator during a power outage but I did run it for about 10 minutes to make sure that it would run. Everything seems great so I can't wait to use it!
