This has got to be one of the best purchases my husband and i have ever made. We have always needed one but kept putting it off. Finally we decided to get one, and we were very excited. When it finally came, it was like Christmas. Actually, it almost was. My husband picked it up, brought it home and it fired right up. So no worries for us when the power goes out, because it probably will. I love knowing now i will have some back-up. Thank you so much Westinghouse!

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!

I put a transfer switch on the outside of our house for use in case we have a prolonged outage (Buffalo Winters Suck) -- After doing the math I figured I needed at max 5000 watts to run various lights, refrigerator, freezer and our steam boiler. This Generator will run them all without issue, and can also run a microwave and air fryer simultaneously. This was really surprising to me --- That and the fact that it is electric start made this a no brainer for me. For the money, this generator can not be beat!

Badly needed a generator since we live in the 'sticks' and lose power often. After a lot of research, decided on this Westinghouse gas only generator. Easy to add wheels, legs, add included oil and gas. One touch and it started..very quiet compared to older generators. We haven't needed it yet but know we are ready for our next outage!!

Although I haven't used the generator in a power outage, it was easy to assemble the wheels and feet, quick start guide was simple to follow and straight forward. I did a test run and everything seems to be functioning properly. The engine started immediately and ran smoothly. Highly recommend!

purchased the smaller size generator from westinghouse a yr ago and have been impressed with the easy start plus the great reputation tried to get another one but had a hard time finding it plus the price diff between the bigger 5300 wasn't much different i have 2 in case i ever have an issue there will be a backup

So just got our new Westinghouse generator. Was happy to see how easy it was to set up. Haven't used it yet but was surprised with all the features it has and safety measures. Looking forward to using it when needed. Very happy with the electric start .

We upgraded a 30 yr. old pull start generator to this one after a 2-day power outage in July. Assembled quickly and started right up. Very nice and compact unit, smaller than the old one with a little more power. The push button start is wonderful. My wife can even set this one up and start it if needed. Since then, had another 24-hr. power outage and this unit got a work out. No issues at all. Even uses less gas than the old one.

I purchased this unit about a month ago and could not be happier. It starts very easy and runs smooth. I especially like the handle for moving the unit as it is sturdy and extends to the right length. I highly recommend purchasing this generator as it is a great value and is very high quality.

I PURCHASED THIS GENERATOR A WEEK AGO AND IT WAS RIGHT ON TIME. WE HAD A RAIN & WINDSTORM EARLIER THIS EVENING & OUR POWER WENT OUT AT HOME. I WAS ABLE TO USE THE GENERATOR FOR BASIC NECESSITIES (LIGHTS, FRIDGE, HEATER, & CELL PHONES) & THIS GENERTOR PERFORMED GREAT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR EMERGENCY OR RECREATIONAL USE.
