Our second Westinghouse jome generator

This one purchased after our previous one was stolen from the garden shed. These 5300 units are great. It has never failed to start and run for hours. Output is more than adequate to run refrigerator, freezer, furnace fan and home lighting.
I purchased as a backup for the, more frequent than I like, outages. This unit runs my fridge, mini-split heat pump, internet, tv, some lights, and my garage door circuit. I appreciate that it came with the exact amount of oil needed, and the adaptor/funnel that screws directly into the crankcase. Starting with the included battery is about as easy as it gets. I hope to get many years of service out of this generator, and have no reason to believe I won't.
I just received the generator. I will set it up and put the oil in and run it as soon as possible. I wanted to be prompt in registering the generator and qualify for the free cover for the generator. I like the wheels & stand and electric start. Once I get it running I will gladly give and full & complete review.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm glad I brought this for hurricane season. I used it and loved it. It's a bit loud but gets the job done. Easy to put together and use. I recommend this particular generator.
