I bought this during hurricane season 2021 right before hurricane Ida was expected hit our area. It came on time. Although we did not need it due to Ida changing course, it gave us a peace of mind knowing we would be comfortable if we did. During hurricane Laura and the ice storm we desperately need a generator. We did not want to go through that again so purchasing this one was a sigh of relief. Its easy to use and works great! Love it. Thank you

Only had it for a week , so far running good , I do like the toggle display , which prompts codes that are almost right on , like when oil is needed to be changed , gas cap is loose, only thing is I think the starter on the unit already froze , or a bad connection , I'm having to use the pull cord , which is not bad at all , an old lady can pull it to get it going , thumbs up for that ...!!!

Bought this cause my wife nagged me about a generator forever. Used it once put it away a couple years and then had it serviced. Service tech said there was an issue with compression and found a metal shim in the piston chamber. Got it fixed, works fine. Leaving review as part of registering my warranty.

I purchased this to provide reliable power during extended power outages. When I opened the box, I was pleasantly surprised to find quality documentation of a quality that is all to scarce nowadays. There is a maintenance schedule that is clear and to the point. A well-illustrated replacement parts list that is thorough and clear. And a user manual that is very well written. The material is given in English, Spanish, and French. While I cannot speak to the French, both the English and Spanish sections are written by someone with a firm command of the languages, without the awkward phraseology that accompanies instructions written by one with a poor command of the language. Setup instructions were clear, and easily followed. The packing materials provided protection to the generator when it had to be turned on its side to attach the feet and wheels - a simple task given the tools are also provided. A funnel to allow one to add oil without spilling it is provided. It is adequate, but could be an inch or two longer for ease of use. After adding fuel per instructions and connecting the battery, the generator fired right up. A pull-start option ensures that in the event the battery has lost its charge one may still start the generator. The information panel is simple to understand and is thoroughly explained in the User Manual. Overall, this shows the signs of a well-thought-out and well-executed package, designed for quality and reliability.

Living in Puerto Rico, where power outages are common, the Westinghouse generator has been a true lifesaver for my family. As someone who works remotely and is also a full-time student, having reliable electricity is essential—and this generator delivers! It powers the entire house seamlessly, from lights to appliances, ensuring I stay connected and productive during outages. The price is economical, especially considering its performance and reliability. It’s also fuel-efficient, which is a huge plus. Highly recommended for anyone in need of a dependable backup power solution!

This generator is compact and easily portable-the wheels really help. Started on first try and is significantly quieter than others I have owned. Works like a charm and I am quite impressed with the added features (fuel gauge, auto shutoff, etc.). I highly recommend!

I recently purchased this generator after reading some of the reviews and calculated the size for my needs. I am set up for backup power but have a need for some additional loads.The size and age of my existing generator led towards this purchase. Follow the instructions in the manual and setup and operation is a snap. Produces the listed voltage in both 120 and 240 volts. Very pleased with it.

Bought this after a storm knocked out power to several towns, some people were without power for days. Set it up so it can run the entire house (except maybe central air) bought a cord to run to an outlet under panel, tested it today and it works great. Entire house running and still at only half load.

Bought the WGen5300v to supplement power for our camper trailer. The generator worked great, however, came with a broken choke spring. Customer service is working the issue. There were no problems starting it up, connecting to the 30Amp line, and starting up the air conditioner and other outlets.

I just bought this for hurricane preparedness and after reading the reviews of all manufacturers out there this one rated the highest and everyone I talked to said this brand was the one to go with. Feel better going into hurricane season here in Florida.
