Meets my power needs

Just recently purchased, haven't had much chance to give it a full workout. I like the features and the practicality. I did notice a dent in the alternator cover, like it was set down on that end in warehousing or shipping. Other than that, I think it will meet my needs.

Perfect balance for emergencies

Bought this for weather emergencies. Very easy assembly. Well built. Perfect balance of power, price, and portability. Not the quietest generator but that wasn’t high on my list. Enough power to keep essentials running for a few days if power is down.

Would definitely recommend!

I just bought this on-line a few weeks ago, and am very pleased with this product overall. It has the power needed to keep all of the key components of our home running during a prolonged power outage, and it was super easy to set up and get running. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, even for a first-time buyer of a generator.

Has all the features we need.

We bought unit (serial number 53FO823B2734) on 11-11-23 which did not produce power. Westinghouse replaced that unit with this one which seems to be running fine as we have tested it and are breaking it in. Please update your records to show new serial # 53DO723B304. We did not receive the cover yet. Please send that.

Just what I needed

As soon as I unboxed my new generator my power went out! The assembly was very easy. We had our unit up and running within 20 minutes. A little loud but it got the job done. I was very impressed with the quick start. I would highly recommend this product.

Easy to use

Very little assembly required. I was able to get it running very quickly and I'm very glad to have it available for emergencies. It moves around with the handle very easily and it folds away nicely. Gas gauge is useful but the vibration when running does make it harder to read.

Easy setup

I bought this generator a few weeks ago after losing power in a storm. I was looking for a unit that kept my fridge running and a few lights/fans. It did exactly that and was easy to set up and get started. Easy to maneuver and doesn't take up a lot of room in the garage when it isn't being used!

Ease of power generation

I purchased my Westinghouse Wgen5300s generator in Oct 2020. I is everything I expected. I appreciate the wheels and handle included in the price. My wife can even roll this unit around. It started right up the first time and everytime there after. I can fully load the house on this unit. I have a well for water and during a long power outage no water. So this unit has everything I need during an emergency.

Performs very will under load surges..

Purchased about a month ago and then had an electrician install a home 10 circuit transfer switch. Have now run the generator several times this past month under various surge loads, testing the engine's response and have been well pleased with its performance. Easy to start and would have given it an Excellant rating except for the rough idle through its warm up ...this diminished fairly quickly after transfer & load were applied.

Lots of extras!

After spending a lot of time online researching portable generators, I selected this one because of the electric start and connection options. I am thrilled so far with my choice. I received it ten days after placing my order. No problem putting on the legs and wheels even though it weighs more than I do. Three days later we had a power outage. I connected to the manual transfer box and start it right up!
