Easy Starting and quiet

I purchased this generator several months ago. Everything I needed was included in the box. After reading the manual and adding the supplied oil. I gassed it up. and it started before I had the handle fully extended. Wow, that was different from other generators I have owned. I let it run for half an hour and found it to be a lot quieter than others I have owned. The mini tool pouch with the oil funnel and spark plug tool was also a plus. It is reassuring to know when I need the power it will be there for me.

Fully featured, and well-documented

One of my new-year's resolutions was to be more prepared for a major earthquake or other disruption of the electric grid. After much research on-line, I was surprised to find the Westinghouse 3600DF offered at such a reasonable price, and offering all the features (dual fuel, electronic ignition, etc.) I'd sought- and then some, e.g. a remote start. I particularly appreciated the accompanying documentation, which includes exploded parts diagrams and electrical schematics, as well as thorough maintenance instructions.

Compact Design

We bought this generator a month and a half ago to use for large event catering. It powers our oven and lights in a tented event kitchen. It is compact and efficient. It travels very well and starts right up! We love the duel fuel option since we always have propane on hand and it burns a little cleaner so it doesn't stink up the area with spent gasoline. It's also fairly quiet as far as generators go. We used to rent them and we are glad to have our own little workhorse... We will be buying another one for when we have multiple events.

Excellent piece of Equipment

I bought this generator as a back up power source for my home during black outs. The instructions for putting it in use are concise and the generator works as it should. I like the duel fuel option and opted to use propane. Didn't even have to go out and buy the hose. I also liked the fact that this machine was within my price range.

Great Generator

The Generator arrived just as planned in only a few days. The package and generator were in great shape. Assembly was beyond easy and Westinghouse is sending me the high altitude carb kit since i am above 6,000ft. Customer service so far has been superb. I have resurched gens. for a long time for my camper and after much research it always came back to the WGen 3600DF. Awesome machine. A no brained decision.

Great generator

I live in Florida and have an older generator that needed to be updated. I researched many different ones and decided on this model. I did not realize that this model has remote star which works very well. I hooked up propane after assembling and putting oil in it and it fired up and ran very smooth. I used it to power a TV and a couple fans just to test it out and everything worked great, runs quiet also. Hope I don't have to use it, but feel a little better knowing I have a great little generator ready to go if I need it.

It seems to be well built and easy to start

I really haven't used it yet, only to put ti together and start it up. But I don't like the design for putting the wheel on the side of the instrument panel. I had mounted the wheel and then had to take it off again in order to put the battery in. Plus it is really very tight fit to put the pin in that holds that wheel in place. I will be using this generator at our cabin in Northern Minn and will have to remove the battery every fall to keep it from freezing over the winter when the cabin is not in use. Which means the wheel has to come off every time I need to take out the battery. Not really a big problem but their must have been a better way to design that. Also I was disappointed to find that I had to actually shut the power off at the machine when I wasn't going to use it for several hours or overnight to keep from running down the battery. On the generator I had before if the machine was shut down everything was off and there was no problem with the battery being drained. Which was the main reason I wanted a remote start.

Great Generator

I bought this generator and it arrived early. we got it all set up and fired it up. It runs great and is very quiet compared to our old generator. It seems to start very quickly and runs smoothly even when hooked put to the refrig and freezer. I am very happy with the purchase I made.

WGen3600DFcv review. great except for no wheel kit

I bought the WGen3600DFcv on 4/6/2024. The second day after delivery I checked; spark plug gap (no adjustment needed), air filter, oil drain plug and maintenance access in general. Open frame generators allow nice access for maintenance. After filling with oil and connecting a propane tank with the included supply line I had minor issues starting. The trick seemed to be to choke for a brief period when trying to start. I've only run the generator a couple of times and only with a heat gun for a load but it seems to work great. A bit loud but to be expected from an engine with less than 6 inches of exhaust. Once my tests were done and I knew this would work for me I tried unsuccessfully to order the wheel kit. Per multiple posts the wheel kit seems to have been out of stock for 2 years but also per posts the WGen5300 Accessory Wgen5300Dfc Wheel Kit will fit save the handle is 2 inches too wide. I've ordered that kit to see if I can get wheels on the 3600 and plan to cut the handle to the correct size. Aside from the wheel kit I'm very happy with this generator. I knocked off a star for the unavailability of the wheel kit.
