Nice and light weight

Product arrived in good condition albeit a few days later than expected. Instructions were clear and assembly (filling crankcase with supplied oil, attaching wheels and rubber feet) was easy. After adding gasoline product started on 2nd pull, ran well (and relatively quietly), and generated electricity on both 5-20R 120V circuits tested. (Didn't test the L14-30R 120/240V or 120V TT-30R outlets yet). Unit is relatively light weight for this size generator and with attached handle and wheels is easy to move and to store.

Great Generator

I received this Generator 2 days after ordering it. It was packed extremely well for shipping. The only things that needed done after it was unpacked was put on the wheels, add oil, plug in the battery and fill the gas tank. After that it fired right up. i would recommend this generator. it is a high quality product.

Good quality, nice features, great price

I have purchased this generator for house power backup. I like the quality of the generator and features, as electronic table which provides useful information. Ergonomic is good. But I spent some time trying to figure out how to check the oil level until I found that meter is located on the oil lid. I wish generator was less loud. :-)

Very easy to use

While this is heavy, rolls easily on the wheels furnished. While this is a complex machine, the instructions are very clear and understandable. Very simple to start. I use it to furnish power to a small building, as needed. In order to meet code, please have a certified electrician hook this generator to a building. A detachable hook-up cord does not come with the generator.

Works well for my needs

Works well for my needs. Only glitch like others have said had a damaged alternator cover, had to pry off to take off floating wire. Also had damage to cage around the motor. Also have to run with one notch on choke all the time. Other than that so far so go.

Great Value

Just arrived today. Easy set up just add oil, fuel and put the included wheels on! Easy to start by recoil and sounds clean. I plugged in a 1500 watt portable heater and no noticeable change in the generator. I expected to hear it bogg down at least a little and nothing.

Well designed and well built

I bought this after reading many generator reviews. Westinghouse was highly rated and I see why. It has a lot of features and is well designed and put together very well. I picked this size for a balance between fuel economy and power. I appreciate its mobility and reasonable weight (135 pounds). And the auto start is a great feature for us older folks.

Solid and Durable

This generator performs as expected and works flawlessly even though it looks like FedEx dropped the box (the bottom corner of the box was badly crumpled). Westinghouse did an excellent job with the packaging and the generator was undamaged and started with the first pull after putting gas and oil into it.

Great For Price

Just recieved our 5300 and love it so far. Easy to service and appreciate the easy identifiable instructions printed ON the generator for an easy start/shutdown. Decently light for a portable mid size and has retractable hauling handle to pull generator around. Built sturdy and good quality. Look forward to using.

WGen5300c covers all the bases!

Just received my new Westinghouse generator, was delivered in 3 days, super fast shipping. Packed vary well, very easy to set up and get ready to run. Directions were easy to follow. Got it prepared to run, and it fired right up. Had it hooked up to the vacation house in half an hour. Worked great, just what we needed for backup. Would buy again!
