Review: Great whole-house generator at a great price - I purchased the Westinghouse WGen5300V generator after a lot of research and careful consideration and I am very happy with the purchase. For context, our house is 2600 sqft and we have mostly electric appliances. Given the frequency of power outages (we have above-ground lines and live in the Southeast US where hurricanes and tornadoes aren't a rarity - we had 6 outages lasting more than an hour in the past calendar year), I wanted something to power the house during extended outages. Initially I was looking at the WGen7500 for our house, which if we wanted to run all electric appliances within the house we would need, but after using a number of generator power calculators and reviewing data from my meter, I determined I could power enough of the house to be comfortable while minimizing cost (i.e. I shut off the breakers for the hot water heater, HVAC, and washer dryer and can power the house's outlets, refrigerator, lights, TVs, and computers). I also like that this unit is pull-start as the larger/more expensive models have a remote start, which while convenient, adds weight, cost, and complexity. The generator itself arrived pretty quickly all things considered. Assembly was very straightforward, and as others have mentioned, the documentation is very good on how to convert the unit from a bonded neutral to a floating neutral. It even comes with a bottle of the exact amount of 10W-30 oil you need. After attaching the feet and wheels, filling the oil, and filling the gas tank, following the instructions I started it up (again, well detailed and straightforward). I let it run for the specified break-in period with no load, then hooked it up to the house and confirmed it's able to power everything we need. The display on the generator itself is pretty handy to see the frequency and voltage output. The only criticism I have echoes that of other reviews in that the unit arrive with a slightly dented alternator cover. Not a big deal, but it did make switching the unit from bonded neutral to floating neutral a tad more difficult as to do so, you have to remove the cover. A bit of elbow grease and a pry bar did the trick, so no major issue. All in all, I'd highly recommend this generator to anyone looking for a (partial) home power backup solution and I imagine it will be more than enough for even pretty large RVs.
Review: Follow directions and take no shortcuts when setting it up for the first time. - After sitting in the box for a year, we were able to set it up easily, pulled the cord and she kicked in and ran like a dream. Great service, and great product. two thumbs up and 5 stars.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How can the Wgen 5300 with a 279cc engine produce almost as many watts as the Wgen 5500 with the 420cc  ?, wont that shorten the life of the 279cc ?**
A: I cannot speak to your backup electrical needs, but I purchased the Wgen 3600 unit - to be used only in the event of a temporary power outage.  Were you planning on running a generator continuously - or just now and again?  How much power draw were you expecting the generator to produce?  If you are concerned about the CC capacity of the 5300 model, then go ahead and purchase the 5500.

**Q: Can the 5-20r outlets be used at the same time as the L14-30R? I want to plug the unit into a transfer switch but also be able to use the 5-20r outlet**
A: Yes

**Q: where is the mode button?**
A: It's on the Data Center border (near the digital display).

**Q: Can you run a tv with this without damaging the tv?**
A: Absolutely, you can run 20 tv's if you want

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good inexpensive generator
*by S***N on February 10, 2021*

This is my first generator, got it for planned utility power outages. It was literally the least expensive generator I could find on Amazon. Despite the low price, it has excellent features and I'm very happy with it. Pros: - At 5300W, tons of bang for the buck. Better power output than generators costing a lot more. - Started very easily, 1st or 2nd pull every time. - Has a display to show total running time, watts, etc. Many other generators don't have this. - Came with oil, so that's nice. - Big gas tank and seems to be very fuel efficient. Tank holds nearly 5 gallons of gas; I was only running a fridge and deep freezer plus a couple lights but even so I got easily 18 hours before I had to refill. Very happy. Neutrals: - It's certainly not quiet, exactly, but overall the noise level was tolerable. If you're standing 20 feet away you could talk in a normal voice volume with someone, but the background would be totally dominated by the sound of the generator. You're not going to forget it's there. Negatives: - The only real negative with this unit is the THD. The product info says something like "THD <23%". Well first off, 23% is huge. Most other generators have much less than that (and an inverter generator would be like 3%, though more expensive). Second, how much less than 23% are we talking? Because of this I did not feel comfortable plugging any electronics into this unit. So that is definitely a limitation. Overall I'm very happy with this unit for the reasons above, taking into account the extremely low cost. If you just need a basic generator to have on hand for emergencies, this one puts out plenty of power to run your appliances, lights, etc.
