Comparison shopped all the common brands from several different retailers, and settled on the 5300DFv as having the right combination of value and features. It was hard to find as home generators are a hot item in California this season. Set up was easy, started on the 2nd pull on gas, and did the break-in run of an hour with no load. On board voltage, frequency, and total/this-run hour meter is very handy. Then shut down, restarted and checked 240 volt, also good. Shut down again, restarted in 120 and ran several different loads for about 10 minutes. Slight RPM stutters as loads came online, but immediately stabilized. My only quibble is that the packaging is retail, and did not fair well during shipping. Box has minimal padding, and arrived with several torn spots, and had obviously been dropped and dragged by handlers. Am fortunate that damage to unit was limited to one small dent in frame on bottom corner (I can live with that, I'm sure I'll do worse over the coming years). Aside from a scuff on top, all else seems fine so far. Before filling and starting, did a cursory 'work around' with a set of wrenchs and sockets looking for any loose fittings, none of the sub-assemblies I could reach seemed loose, although a couple of final assembly bolts did need a 1/2 turn of snugging up. Welds and paint are pretty good, much better than some I've seen. Wheels have an outer rim of rubber (not just hard cast plastic) and feet are hard rubber with concave undersides - they 'hold' the smooth concrete floor and keep unit from walking. If you can find it for a competitive price, then this seems a very good value. One last note, this is not a particularly quiet unit, more appropriate for work site or ranch than campground or residential neighborhood. If you need it at your house and neighbors are close, you'll want to build a quiet box for it.

I took it out of the box, put on the wheels and fired it up. I used propane and it fired up right out of the box on two pulls! Very happy with this purchase!

Recieved faster than was initially said to arrive & affordable. Getting ready for bad weather when it comes I'm happy about the fact that it is dual fuel, the only trow back is that it will not run our wellhouse on propane because it isn't enough Watts... our fault for not checking into it closer and buying one with more wattage.We're still happy with it!!! Will be purchasing a larger Westinghouse dual fuel for our home soon.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
