Flood 2024

Just received my generator. We just went through a flood in my area. We lost power for two days. Purchased for insurance that in any disaster I would have emergency electrical backup.

Awesome Generator

Was looking at the WGen 2500 but decided to go with the WGen 5300 since it was double the size and only a few more $. Worked straight out of the box. Quick delivery.

Great decision

I recently purchased 5300DFcv after reading many reviews and also in the last month not having anything to provide power to my home for over 4 days due to weather issues. Again a great decision

Poor engineering

At age 82 how am l expected to pull start this generator if the electric start won't work due to a low battery and the only way to charge the battery is by running the generator?

reply from eComm

Hello, thank you for your review, we are sorry to hear about your experience. We recommend flipping the engine shut off down when you are not planning to run the generator to save the battery for when you need it. We do have a battery charger to charge the battery when it drains, and the generator will charge the battery when it runs. If there is anything we can do to help, please let us know at 1-855-944-3571 or support@wpowereq.com. Thanks, Zach - Westinghouse

Great Machine

Living in the hurricane zone you need a generator, and the Westinghouse 5300 is perfect for my needs. Starts on the first pull and is equipped with the safety features for safe use.

High Quality Product

Purchased the WGen5300v gas generator and was very impressed with the overall quality of the unit. Will use this to supplement the output of my small inverter. Nice job Westinghouse.

Electric start!

worked straight out of the box, just assemble the wheel and feet, put in the oil (included) and gas (not included, obviously) and click it on! hurricane season here we come XD
