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

Just purchased the Westinghouse WGen5300sc generator for backup power for some vital circuits (heat, water etc) for the house. Assembly was super easy: just add mounting feet, wheels, hook up battery, oil and gas. Started right up and ran fine. Plugged it into my transfer switch and all worked like it should. Super happy so far!

I bought this on 12/16/24 after a 2 1/2 day power outage. Haven't needed to use it yet, but am confident it won't fail. I've had years of experience using generators in my career. This a Westinghouse WGen5300sc is sturdy, well built and easy to put into service. I've run it a few times to familiarize myself and my wife with the operation from start up to shut down. No issues. We're ready for the next outage.

Fired up the generator to help with a downed tree limb. My “Westing” started on the first push of the button and supplied plenty of power to that sawzall. Never wish to have the power go out, but I am now assured that having my generator around now will help relieve much of the stress power outages create.

the generator is extremely well built and exactly what i needed. it was easy to put on the accessories with excellent and easy to follow instructions. I highly recommend the electric start and am completely satisfied with this generator. excellent quality throughout.

After experiencing power outage over 3+ weeks in our area during Hurricane Helene, I decided a generator was a must. Instructions for set up were easy to follow and before I knew it, it was time for a test run. With the help of a neighbor for support we put in oil and fuel and got the generator started with no problems. We allowed for proper break in and are familiar with the long-term storage recommendations. Everything is set up and ready to go as we watch the snow fall in upstate South Carolina Jan. 2025!

We have been experiencing PSPS outages every time the wind blows losing power for up to 60 hours at a time. This system is particularly nice because it has the electronic start so my wife can get it going if we lose power during the day. Easy to use, works great, a little loud but way better than no power for hours and hours.

We purchased this for my 92 year old father. We felt the electric start would be better than pulling a cord. So far we've had it running and it seems to work well. The power hasn't been out so we haven't put it to the true test but so far we're happy with it

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.

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!
