Great generator for this price

I used this generator couple times only. But it's amazing. Just push the button on a remote and it starts. Great for RV. This power enough for your house then city power is lost. Great
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to set up

I bought this after a storm left us without power for 3 days and we had to replace our food. We figured that if the power went out again, it would cost just as much to purchase a generator as it would to replace our food again.
Power went out after hurricane Debbie came through and I didn’t have to replace my food this time, so I’m happy.
The day that the power went out, the generator was still in the box because I’m a bit of a procrastinator :) it wasn’t difficult to get the generator up and running out of the box once I found the choke and realized that the choke was already set the way it needed to be.
I used the gasoline option. I have never dealt with propane for anything, so gasoline was my go-to option. Perhaps one day I’ll try out the propane option. Right now, I’m realizing that a benefit of using the propane is that once you are finished with using the generator, you can just detach the tank. Right now, I have almost a full tank of gasoline sitting in the machine that I will have to go to the store to get something to keep/store so the gasoline doesn’t go bad in the generator.

Easy for a first time user

Setup was very smooth and I'm not a handy person. I love that I can start up with a remote, electrical or pull cord. Powers most of my house using a switch when the power goes out occasionally. No issues at all. As most generators are it's very loud.

WGen5300DFc

Haven't used it yet, but finally got it to turn on using propane only. The choke seems tricky to get it right. We ended up flooding it while trying to start it so many times, but it finally started by turning the propane completely off, but then it died again. We got it started three times by playing with the choke feature. Unfortunately, I am an older female and I do not have the strength to pull the "lawn mower" type start cord strong enough to start it. If it weren't for the two gentlemen who helped me set it up, it would have never gotten started with just me. Otherwise, it looks like a nice model. It's super loud, though. I will need to have a man come over to start it in case of a hurricane, and to move it away from the back of the house.

Power I need

I bought this generator because it had the wattage I need to run my 240 volt well pump in case of a power failure. Was reasonably priced for my needs.
