I bought this generator to replace a 30 year old one. It is very compact and loaded with features. It comes with a wheel kit that makes it easy to put it where you want it. The controls are laid out well on the main panel with ease of operation. I would highly recommend the WGen5300sc model .

The cap on the motor, where the pulling cord is was bent during shipping. But other than that it starts and it works. My only concern is that the engine seems to stutter during the run, but the voltage output remains steady. I hope it is nothing serious.

Bought this generator about 3wks ago.Recieved it with damaged box and recoil housing was slightly damaged.I was still able to start and ran it for a hour without a load(break in)!After that ran it for about another two hours.I was really surprised at how quiet it was.I used it to run my pump in my to irrigate my trees.I used it to two more times after that.So far it has been a good investment,money well spent!

This Generator was a gift from our son! Couldn't have come at a better time! We are so happy 😊 and have a better 'piece of mind'. It is a lot quieter than our old one and much, much easier to start. It is compact and easy to move. Love the gages that take the 'guess work' out of operating it. And we love the 'looks' of our new Generator too! Thank you, lol...and God Bless our son for such a needed and thoughtful gift!!!

Needed a generator after our last died. As luck would have it, we didn't need it for over a year. Was really afraid that when I started it up for the first time after storing it for that long that it wouldn't start. Three easy pulls later (and I mean easy), it fired up and purred like a kitten. Vast improvement over my last generator.

I bought this generator in preparation for storm season. I've never owned a generator and everything I've heard about them made me nervous to buy. However, the clear and concise instructions accompanied with the ease of operating this equipment has given me and my family the confidence to go beyond an emergency response and even wheel it around for weekend jobs.

I bought the WGen5300sc Wednesday. Today is Saturday and FedEx delivered it. I currently have no power from the storm last night. So when it was delivered I already had my Generator switch connected and ready to go. When it was dropped off I immediately put it to work. It’s been going for 7 hours now running my entire house! Amazing generator, not too big and not too small.

Boyfriend bought this for my house because we are always losing power in the area. He checked out many generators and after reviewing them all he said that the Westinghouse unit is the one to go with. The generator is easy to use and start. He hooked up a transfer box that I just run the twist lock cord to and throw a switch and we have power to the building. I was happy to find out that it powers almost everything in the house.

As a lifelong mechanic and 25 yr. aircraft mechanic, initial build and first 5 hr. run while attempting to energize two RV's were quite successful. Quality rubber mounting system for shock absorption. Very neat, well engineered and appears very solidly built. For the money, it provides a great cost ratio for the wattage it provides. Appears to be a very good purchase after a month of reading endless reviews and opinions and plenty of math...

I recently purchased this generator after a power outage. It arrived promptly and is sturdy as well as attractive. The pull start is quite manageable. Moving it about is made easy by means of large wheels and a sturdy padded handle. The operators manual is clear and quite articulate.
