Bought this generator last month and it is perfect for my needs. Have it connected to my house when we have an electrical outage which happens frequently where we live. Runs great and the electric start is a wonderful feature. It was recommended to me by a salesmen. Compared to other portable generators with all the features the price would be hard to beat. Definitely would recommend.

I have just started using this generator and right out of the box it worked great. After adding oil and gas it took two pulls on the cord and it started right up. I would highly recommend this generator price and value for your money is excellent. My son has had a Westinghouse generator for four years and has never had any problems with it.

Needed a generator after our last died. As luck would have it, we didn't need it for over a year. Was really afraid that when I started it up for the first time after storing it for that long that it wouldn't start. Three easy pulls later (and I mean easy), it fired up and purred like a kitten. Vast improvement over my last generator.

I bought this unit a few weeks ago and it was so easy to set up. Slide the wheels on, plug in the battery connector, and add oil. Maybe 10 minutes. Started right up and now I'm ready for the next power outage. If it save the contents of my fridge one time it will have paid for itself!

The generator was delivered today. Easy assembly of the wheel/pad kit, added oil and gas, plug in the battery - ready to go. The only negative is that one of the two air filter brackets had a bent hook and a broken latch. It started easily - the battery had a good charge - I tested by powering a refrigerator - no change in the motor speed when the compressor kicked in.

I bought this generator a while back as part of a project to wire my house for electricity in the event of a power outage. I am pleased to say that (with the help of my electrician friend) this generator will allow me to power my entire house, including refrigerator, ductless air conditioner, furnace, and lighting. It has plenty of power and a high capacity gas tank so run time between refueling is a good number of hours. I am quite sure I won't be left in the dark in the event of an outage. It is quite well constructed should be useful for many years.

Had shipped to store and picked up last week. Saw multiple reviews about damaged items but had no problems. Got it running to test and seems to be OK. Only complaint so far is the location of the oil spout. Very hard to get to. Had to unconnected the battery wire to fit the oil funnel.

I bought this Gen 5300 a week ago. I already own a Gen 3600 I bought 2 years ago. Best and most dependable I ever had. Both of these generators always start the first pull of the recoil. The price of both was reasonable and competitive. I would recommend Westinghouse gens to any one. I love that Westinghouse pretexts their hens

I purchased for powering my home when there is power outage. It seems to fit the bill, I hope not to use it until and outage, not in the awhile. Put it together in no time, hooked up battery, filled with oil provided, and gas. Started right up, and runs well as I break in the engine while not under a load. I also do construction work in areas where there is no power, it runs the equipment with no problem. Saws, compressors, lights all can be used. Light and compact so it is easy to move. construction site.

Due to all of our storms in the area recently, I thought it would be good to upgrade my generator. Thank goodness I haven't had to use this yet, however it appears to be very user friendly, especially with the process to start the generator on the unit itself.
