this generator does everything we hoped it would

we purchased this generator for peace of mind in case we had a loss of electricity to be able to run our well pump and a few other electronic devices. It turns out that we can operate almost everything we need and more than we thought we would be able to. We are very please with it

Peace of Mind!!

Bought this to be prepared for NC snowstorms so I could have peace of mind for my toddler. Excited about the dual fuel option. Started up no trouble on gas. Haven't tried propane yet. Lots of options when it comes to power and plenty to take care of our needs!

Generator 5300sc

I bought this a few months ago. I would definitely have gone with a higher wattage model. It has worked well, except for the last time I used it. It had a hard time turning on. I think its the spark plug, but mine didn't come with a spark plug socket so I'm contacting customer care to hopefully ship me one. If that fixes the issue, then I would recommend the product.

We absolutely love ours

Our generator is absolutely the best! It has kept us nice and warm and our food frozen while we had no power several times. I don't know what we would do without it! It has been the best investment we have ever made! We highly suggest this one and only by this brand! We had another brand before and it let go very fast, so that one was a waste of money, but this one, definitely not!!!!!!!

Great Generator. Very friendly and many options

I bought this generator 3 years ago. I bought it because it was universal between propane and gas, owner of 2 other gas generators I felt I was missing a propane. It has come in hand as I have ran out of gasoline but living in the country , we always have propane on hand.

GREAT GENERATOR

We have power outages frequently where I live. Years we have put off buying a generator due to cost, but after so many times of loosing power for no real reasons we decided to buy this one. Ths works wonderful on powering the deep freezer and refrigerator along with keep phones charges etc. As with all generators it's not quiet butt that is no concern to me because there is no other choice. My neighbors have even run an extension cord to the generator to power their refrigerator. Great product

Real power

This generator is easy to start, smooth to idle, and quiet. It is my first generator, and we purchased it because of the recent high winds in California, which left some people without power. Having this generator saved us from throwing out food in two refrigerators and with the price of food it is worth having this generator.

Great Generstor

I bought this generator today. I'm in Kansas and a large winter storm is approaching. This summer we went 72-hours without power. Lost everything in the fridge Ang freezer. With this generator I can power fridge gas furnace or whatever. It's heavy but manageable once assembled.

Very dependable generator

I bought this generator in preparation for the impending ice storm. The generator arrived as scheduled. It was very well boxed and there were no dents or scratches. The instruction manual is very well laid out and easy to understand. I am a 70-year-old female and I had no trouble setting it up. Love the electric start feature. I tested out the pull start and that works equally as well. I was able to get it started right away. Although we never lost power, I have been testing out the generator the last few days. It has started with no problem and I will continue to do so each month to keep it in good running condition. I would highly recommend buying a Westinghouse generator. Just make sure you find a place that can service a Westinghouse generator because not all places do.

Easy to install

I bought this 2 weeks ago. I am now in the break in. I plan to change the oil after the first use just to be safe. System started right up within seconds. The only thing I do not like is the oil fill is in an awkward position. I have not put the system under a load yet, but it runs smooth. Seems like it is efficient in using the fuel. The generator is fairly loud, but that is to be expected. I am glad I have it for bad weather. I have lost two freezers full of meat the last couple of years and do not plan for that to happen again. I also plan to use the system off road at my hunting property where I do not have electricity.
