With the rolling blackouts, this is a great safety purchase for the house. Plenty of wattage, comes with wheels, well built/sturdy, and clear instructions on the maintenance. Very easy to use, built to last with regular maintenance. Love the thoughtful functional design and utility. Generator comes in clutch.

The unboxing and setup was fairly easy, and completed within 30 minutes. It's heavy, so plan on a second set of hands or cutting the box. It looks good and is "normal" noise level for a generator. I feel they are always too loud. Time will tell if it holds up, but i'm happy so far.

This is a well built unit that is easy to set-up. Well written manual. Has start-up instruction right on the unit. Lots of power for it's size, more than adequate for an emergency back-up generator for a house with a generator interlock switch set up. Very happy with this purchase.

I did a lot of research, and pondered my choices for a long time before I pull the trigger on this generator. When comparing with several other generators this is the one that rose to the top for me. The price I paid for the wattage and other features, plus the reputation and reviews, were the deciding factors. Assembly went very smoothly and the generator started immediately when I hit the starter. I ran it for the one-hour break-in time, and it ran perfectly. Today I connected my air compressor to it through a 100' cord while it was running and then started the compressor. The generator barely noticed the compressor and powered it up with barely a hiccup. I think this generator will meet all my expectations and needs for back-up power. I'm looking forward to my first power outage. :)

Just bought this and was glad I got this one,a little over 100lbs.First generator I can lift.great value with electric start and great runtime .It had a issue from transport, that Westinghouse saw to the first day out of box. Hope i never use it ,but know that won't be the case in Fl.

To be honest I haven't started it. They start it at the factory then drain the oil out of it for shipping. After doing research on line I found that gasoline is corrosive and they don't recommend storing it in the tank for more than two weeks. The oil and funnel comes with the unit. I'm just going to leave it empty, no oil or gas, with every confidence that it will start if I ever need it. Unit is heavy but has a good handle and wheels for moving it around.

Quick and careful delivery. Opted for gas only to only handle fridges. Already have a solar/battery 1000w generator for inside. Easy to put together and working great out of the box by following the exact steps in the manual. Breaking it in as I type.

I received and installed the wheels and foot of the generator chassis. The installation process was smoothly and straightforward. I like the reasonable weight of this model, WGen5300sc. For occasional power outages, I expect this generator to provide adequate power supply for the essential appliances, e.g. refrigerator

I was very nervous about purchasing a heavy portable generator, since I had no one who would be able to help me assemble it. It proved to be surprisingly easy! I just slit the sides of the box, removed the packing materials and wheel assembly, and then easily tipped the generator on its side to install the wheel assembly and feet. Unless you're quite frail, you'll be able to manage this, ladies! I haven't yet purchased my gas tank to fuel it and give it a trial run, but it looks like it'll be a simple matter to do so!

Got this in preparation for the coming dark winter, the globalist's great reset, agenda 21, civil war, UN takeover etc.... Should be enough to power some heaters, and even has 220v to get the hot water tank going. It's a great size, packs a lot of punch for something that isn't too difficult to get around.
