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!

With our power constantly going out and a total electric trailer, I knew I had to have backup power for heat this winter. This generator was within my price range and will provide the security I need during power outages. It was easy to set up and started right up. It’s light enough to move around. Haven’t actually needed it yet but I’m so glad I have it

This generator worked very well to provide the power we needed. It was easy to start with the pull cord. [However, I am having issues with the electric start.] It is relatively quiet in its operation. An it is easy to transport with the wheels and handle.

gen arrived in one piece no damage,put the wheels and vibration pads on (took 2 minutes) filled with req oil amount ,started on the second pull ,plugged a 120 volt heater into and it works as advertised,,a little noisy but at this price point they all are ,,,hopefully it will give years of reliable service,,, happy camper

Just received the 5300 with electric start, the quick setup instructions very easy to follow, includes everything -wheels, tool kit, oil and even a funnel ! Gassed it up - pushed the electric start ...... fired right up, average operating sound for a generator, ran smoothly, no leaks or drips ! Gave it a quick test with two 1875w hair dryers ..... no problem ! The WGen replaces a 3500w manual start , I can get spoiled with this electric start ! And like with anyone who buys a home generator "I hope I never use it" but in this New Normal , it will be getting it's use !

I bought this dual generator due to winter storms and losing power for days. This generator came boxed securely and with everything in the box that you need to set it up and start it - except for the fuel. That’s on you. The build & quality of this machine is awesome. Starts on the first pull and works as it should I highly recommend this company- the reason I bought a Westinghouse was it’s been in business forever

I bought this a couple weeks ago after a ice storm left most of our town without power, I did not have a backup power source and I will never let that happen again. This unit was recommended by my brother in law who is an electrician and so far it has met all expectations.

Bought the 5300 generator recently and liked the packaging. The generator is a nice clean design and clearly labeled parts. Only complaint is that the manual doesn’t clearly show how much oil to put in the generator before the first start. I will be adding oil and doing the first start within this week.

I bought this for a "just in case" to supply partial power to the house. Well, the hurricane hit and we lost power. Plugged in the generator and all was well for about an hour, then it stopped producing electricity. Engine runs fine, but no electricity. Now the warrantee is over and I get to buy another generator because I can't fiind anyone to fix it.

LOVE THE EASY LABEL CONTROLS. STARTED RIGHT UP WITH NO HESITATION. FOLDING HANDLE SUPER CONVENIENT. WHEELS SIMPLE TO INSTALL. PLEASANTLY SURPRISED BY DIGITAL METER WITH ALL THE DADTA INCLUDING ENGINE HOURS AND MAINTENANCE REMINDERS - AND IT'S SMALL THAN THE OLD CLUNKER!
