Westing house Gen. WGen5300cv

I bought this Dec. 26 2022 Very, very pleased with this generator. The generator started on the 3rd pull. Very smooth and reasonably quiet. Has a lot of good features on it. Francis Breed

Perfect Generator for our Camper!

This generator has been awesome for camping in our fifth wheel! It has always run great from the very start and it's really not that loud.. we highly recommend this unit - the price is fair and it's a really great product and very well built. We will also use this generator if the power ever goes out at the house!

Just arrived

Very nice and simple. Fill with oil ( included) and gas, quick connect battery, Slide wheels on and tighten 4 nuts and ready to go. Manual pull 5 times for first start up. Wow, electric start and remote smooth no problem.EASY! This is going to change my world. I’m still waiting for an electrician to wire plug to house panel, but powered fridge, space heater a light and charged phone with extension cord

Love the Electric Start

As a Senior I need a newer Generator with Electric Start. My older 10 HP 5500 watt just was getting too hard to pull start. Living in Florida we need to have a backup power source for two or three days to keep our Refrigerator working. Setting up was easy. Just put the wheels on it were the delivery guy leaves the Box. Add Oil --Roll outside and push start. At first I was a little concerned as nothing happened, then a few seconds later, the start light flashed and it started right up. Have run it for a few hours so far--with a light load. It works great!

PIECE OF MIND

I bought the WGEN5300V about a week ago...it looks well made, compact and easy to use. With all the power outages lately this generator will be a life saver. It starts right away and is quite. The cost of unit is priced well in its category. I plan to get years of use out of it.

messes up frequently

I had this generator for less than 2 weeks and it started to mess up. It would not run using push to start. If i hand craked it, it would run for 10-30 seconds and shut off. The spark pulg burnt up within a few runs. When it runs, it works great. It has a long battery life and holds all my equipment well. However it is one of the loudest generators that i have had/heard. Not too heavy to pickup if there are 2 people. Easy to move around with the handle and tires.

Quiet and start on the first pull!

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!

It is working

Just bought the WGen5300s through the local Menard's. The generator arrived in good shape, no dings or missing parts. I've run it through it's break-in cycle and tested it with small test loads. It has performed without a problem. Bought if as insurance when the power goes out. Hopefully I won't need it.

Great Generator for RV and Emergency Backup

Everything needed was included in the box. In less than 30 minutes I had the generator unpacked, wheels and feet installed, oil filled (supplied), filled with fuel and had it purring away. I let it run for about 15 minutes before I put it underload for the very first time. I connected our RV to the 30 amp outlet (TT-30R 120V 30A) and powered up the all the RV lights, fridge, electric water heater etc and then the air-conditioner and it worked great. I could hardly hear the generator once the AC was running. I went outside and was very happy with the noise level emitted by generator with basically everything electrical in the RV powered up and the AC running on max. It was much lighter than I expected and very easy to move about, however I would caution you to only pull the generator behind you don't try to push it with the handle or it may end up flopped over on its back (don't ask me how I know this :D ).
