We live in a small town and had an ice storm last January that took everyone by surprise. It was definitely no fun for us and the dogs, and almost all of my houseplants died. I can't tell you the piece of mind we feel to have a generator on hand. The dual fuel is a major bonus too. We tested it out & true to the manual. It runs longer on gas than propane. We have run a Lasko space heater, a table saw, & a heating pad on it so far without a stutter. My husband is very pleased, aaaaand thus is the wife. If we ever get another, we just may go for the tri-fuel.

I bought this generator after going through hurricane Milton. We were without power for 8 days and had a smaller generator that was just barely adequate. After things settled down, I went looking for something bigger and found this Westinghouse generator. I am very excited to use it, although I am not looking forward to another hurricane! I am happy with the power and ability and am anxious to see it perform!

I live in Houston Tx where we get storms and power outages. I purchased this generator to power my home with just 2 switches. After our last storm it was money well spent. Folks if you need a powerful yet reasonably priced generator look into this one.

Put it together and it started right up. Even has the auto start button that cycles until it starts. Came more assembled than the instructions said. The instructions were clear and easy to understand. It's pretty quiet for a big generator. Well built. Easy to operate. Happy it came with the propane hose. Very pleased.

Wired this generator to my sub panel and started it up and started turning on breakers. I was impressed with its output. Was able to run most of the house. Water Pump, freezers, refrigerators and more. Easy to assemble and start. Ran for 5 hours and never worried only impressed.

Purchased directly after Hurricane Helene with intent of using as ''Back Up' power source... This Bi-Fuel (Gas/Propane) engine started without hesitation on Propane and Gas, is for this reason alone, is going to be my Primary Emergency power source...... Thanks for a Great Product

Bought this after reserching all the reviews and when it arrived and I looked it over , I realized that most all the reviews were spot on.....man this is just what I needed being 76 years old and find I NEED an electric start generator....for the money this is a great mid range unit....I know with out a doubt, this is going to make my life a lot more enjoyable.....Thanks Westinghouse....

Im in my 70's and needed a reliable and simple to start generator so i found this 5300sc with electric start and i love it even tried the pull start 1 pull is all it took so glad about that so this westinghouse is not only a good looking well put together machine it more than does the job at my home and ironically the day i got this beauty we had a big storm and lost lower for 4 days and this generator worked perfectly good job westinghouse

Very impressive. They thought of every thing. From the oil , tools, propane regulator and parrel cables. I like the compartment to store the on/off fob. Easy instructions and easy start both manual and electric. I like that you can charge usb devices. Love the telescope handle. I could not be more thrilled.

Received the Westinghouse generator yesterday and first off I was very impressed with the sturdiness of the packaging and the delivery. After unpacking the generator I am very happy with the material and manufacturing of this product- very well made, sturdy, rugged- built to do the job it is intended for. The included user manual is very detailed and easy to understand which makes operating the generator doable for even first time users. Very satisfied with my Westinghouse generator.
