Fired up the generator to help with a downed tree limb. My “Westing” started on the first push of the button and supplied plenty of power to that sawzall. Never wish to have the power go out, but I am now assured that having my generator around now will help relieve much of the stress power outages create.

Just put together and started it up on propane and ran two times to warm up and seat the rings/breaking some. The only negative I have is the oil fill cap/dipstick. Plastic that doesn’t start and thread great. Just cheap and hard to get to and screw back on. Either it vibrated loose or I didn’t get it on well the first time I ran it. That is minor and it seems to be a good product for the money.

So far, it has started on the first pull every time. It is also much quieter than our old one. The pull up handle and wheels are very handy for moving it around and saves the hernia of lugging it. We haven't pulled a lot of power with it so far other than running an air compressor, but it doesn't seem to miss a beat when the compressor kicks on. I'm very pleased with our purchase!

Excellent. No more worries when the power fails, which is twice a year on average. I thank my neighbors for showing me the ropes (cords) when using these power units. They shared theirs and they do not have to do it twice now. With the 240v, I can share mine back if they need it.

Good features such as outlets for transfer switch and RV. Good amount of power to run all household appliances and easy to move around on the supplied wheels. A couple minor issues, could use additional regular 120v outlets and power could be cleaner, specs in manual mention <23% THD.

I purchased this WGen5300sc portable generator and I'm so glad I did. Here in Texas we have hurricanes and had some exceptionally freezing winters where we lost all power for days. No more worries now as to what we'll do for some heat, lights and to keep a few appliances running. I'm very impressed with the ease of plugging in my cords and the self start. And I knew I couldn't go wrong with Westinghouse made here in the USA.

I just bought this product about a month ago but just went through the assembly and operation. Assembly is simple, just follow the instruction manual. Same goes for the operation of the generator, easy "pull start" once the gasoline is engaged. I'll report back once I've had an opportunity to put it to the test.

I ordered this unit as part of my emergency preparedness for this coming storm season. Place the order on may 24th and it was promptly delivered via fed ex 9 days sooner than expected. The packaging was intact with minimal dings and such. Hardware was easy to assemble and instructions and for start up as well as the machines warranty info and manual were concise yet easy to read. Powerful for its size, it runs everything I need and could add more if we’re necessary.. I especially love the run time on such a small tank of fuel. I could not be more satisfied with this purchase and would recommend it

We live in the county and if there is a power outage we are not the first the power company worries about. I want to be able to start my generators quickly. This one is s nice and its not as loud as my old one. We are now set, just hope we don't have a hurricane this year. The freeze was bad enough.

Did extensive research before purchase. No other deal can match this. Very pleased with the first peek after box opening - fine workmanship on a beautiful piece. Installed easily without reading instructions. Already installed the inlet, circuit breaker and interlocker before the purchase. Can't wait for the first power outage now. lol
