Great Generator for the Price

I bought the WGen5300DFcv model. I started it up on gas and completed the initial run for about 30 minutes. I powered a fan and drill to verify the operation. All running well so far, it started up after a few pulls. It arrived undamaged and the packing looked great. The engine runs smooth and handles electric load changes. Easy to handle with the wheels and this is a good size if you need to pick it up into a truck bed. I plan to run it on propane next week. Overall looks great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Worked for multi day power outage. Dual fuel is great, so easy to hook up propane from grill to get rolling right away.

Impressed as much as I can be this early with it

Bought this right as we were dealing with an outage that ultimately stretched into more than twelve hours. I'd considered buying something similar but it felt a little silly until we were facing the reality of being without power for more than just an hour or two.
The generator itself seems to be excellently built and I love that it's dual fuel (this will be a huge plus). It came well packaged, the box a bit roughed up but that's literally the point of the box. The contents were completely fine and all present per the inventory in the manual.
In terms of mass / weight and size ... My wife might struggle to move it without the wheels or to lift it, but it's lighter than my modest motorcycle and small enough that even in the box it was easily able to fit through a domestic door and down a corridor.
It comes with the oil you'll need to start it up, a basic toolkit (which includes a socket for the sparkplug) and plenty of documentation, including a decently sized manual and a booklet with a full part by part breakdown and part numbers.
As I mentioned with the build quality, everything looks nice (for now) and more importantly feels very solid and capable of standing up to its job. The solid wheels would be a hassle if you intend to move it over rough ground (like a work site or ranch land) but are completely fine for domestic purposes.
The controls are large enough and well situated to be obvious and easy to use, and it can apparently transition between using propane and gasoline whist running, as long as the propane tank was properly connected before starting the generator - a very nice feature on top of being able to use both fuels in the first place.
I can't speak to its actually running performance at this time, but there are hundreds of reviews online of this or functionally identical generators from Westinghouse and the concensus is that they're good.
I'm as happy as I can be, at this point, and I expect to continue to be pleased with it. I also trust Westinghouse to put right any issues if they do occur (unlike certain other generator brands, I gather).
If you want a generator, with flexible fuel options, and don't need the power capacity of the larger and much more expensive options, this is a really good purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!
