I bought this WGen5300 yesterday which was one week after Hurricane Helene hit the upstate of South Carolina. We were without power for 5 days and had to rely on borrowed generators from family members. I have completed putting the parts together and the instructions were very thorough and correct. I have read the instructions and find them easy to understand. I am very confident that I will be ready for the next power outage. I have complete confidence in the operation of this generator.

I didn't have to use it for the most recent hurricane but I go through the initial set up to verify it would turn on and it did. The instructions were super simple. I hope to never have to use it but if so, I'm confident that it will work as intended.

We are first-time generator purchasers in our 70s. We just unboxed and got our generator started this week and found the instructions to be very clear. The machine is well-designed and very easy to move given the wheels and handle. We agree with other reviews that the most challenging part of getting it ready to start is the oil fill. Be sure to have a drip pan and paper towels nearby. Even with the supplied funnel, it is difficult to fill due to the location of the opening. We would give this product five stars, but we haven't used it yet. However, there is no reason to doubt that it won't meet our expectations in performance.

we have medical conditions that require 24/7 power. The Westinghouse generator meets our needs. If the power goes out, all I have to do is wheel the generator new the outlet, plug it in, and press a button to start the generator. It couldn't be easier. Excellent purchase!

Simple to assemble. Started right up! Great product, but it's one you hope you never have to use, but brings nice peace of mind with it! Battery connection at start up is a little tough to put together if your hands are a little arthritic like mine! Just takes a little more effort.

I received and installed the wheels and foot of the generator chassis. The installation process was smoothly and straightforward. I like the reasonable weight of this model, WGen5300sc. For occasional power outages, I expect this generator to provide adequate power supply for the essential appliances, e.g. refrigerator

We bought the Westinghouse power generator WGen5300c a few weeks ago to replace our old generator that had failed. I am very happy, because it is so much easier to operate, move and connect, having various option to do so. Now we are better prepared for power outages.

We purchased this to replace a Generac 10,000 Watt unit that was just too big and heavy. This Westinghouse generator is compact, easy to maneuver, and has more than enough power. It was easy to assemble and started up on the first push of the starter button after we added oil and gas. Very happy with our purchase!

What great product. When I received his product, it was raining and the electric went off. I had it up and running in 15 minutes. I ran it for six hours and not a problem. It was so easy getting running for the first time. This Generator is a very quiet starts in one full and was well packaged. In that six hours, it ran more than I expected I was very happy with that.

Living through hurricanes without a generator can be difficult and stressful, if you live in areas where they can knock power out for weeks at a time, you need a generator. I picked this generator because of the name and price point, a Black Friday purchase. I can power the necessities in my house with this generator, we are now prepared for the weather come what may. It was easy to set up, too.
