Generator

I bought a WGen7500df 3 and a half years ago. If I had any issues the customer service was exceptional. I used it in Texas all summer at the deer lease in extremely hot weather to run my a/c and power in my camper. I bought this updated WGen9500c because of the customer service.

Finally purchased a generator and glad I went big!

For the size and portability of this generator, it is an absolute powerhouse. It was very easy to put together and the instructions were super easy as well. Within 30 minutes I had the wheels installed and all fluids taken care of, and then with just a push of a button it fired right up. I was surprised that it wasn't as loud as I was expecting for a unit that puts out so much power. I am going to purchase the ST Switch as well for my sump pump on stormy nights. Definitely worth the investment!

Great generator so far

Everything was simple to put together, heavy generator for sure until wheels go on then just fine. Load tested it on house good to go. If i had to pick 1 or 2 things I'd say first they only give you 1 quart of oil and it takes a tad more. Secondly they claim 6.6 gallon gas tank i think that's a bit optimistic...i over fill my 5 gallon has can cause i can so think it's more like a 6 gallon tank. Lastly, and i guess i kinda knew it, if your going to have a remote control for a start I'd say be sure it has some sort of auto choke cause otherwise what is the point.

Started right up

Generator arrived in good shape. Very simple to assemble. It does take more than the 1 quart of oil that is supplied. However, I did have some oil sitting around that I was able to top it off with. Started right up after adding fuel. Providing good electrical power.

Started up on propane quikly.

This gen set was delivered today. Put the wheels and front feet on it by laying unit on its side as directions recommwended. Heavy but manageable for an old guy like me. Add oil, hooked up propane tank and started it up. Voltage report center says its putting out 244volts. Will try out the transfer socket to the house tomorrow.

Best features and AMERICAN made

I was looking for a replacement generator that could handle entire load of our house. This is to be placed in a small outdoor storage shed, so we didn't want one with a CO detector. This not only fit our needs but Exceeded our expectations on options. The price was competitive to others, But unlike others it's an AMERICAN product. with a 13.5 HP engine it's quieter than the 8 HP we had. It arrived very nicely boxed, and the user manual is nicely organized. If this is your first or fifth generator, you're thinking about buying, I would HIGHLY recommend a Westinghouse. I will be purchasing a dual fuel from Westinghouse soon can never be too prepared.

Great generator and deal

I bought this awhile back and just got it hooked up 3 day ago after coming to or other home. It was easy to set up and started the first time when I used the fob. Works great, everything we wanted and needed. It has features like, covers over the outlets, more indicators than most, and quieter.

Great power source

Bought this to use as power source on our new property until we get electricity. It works great, I use it on propane as its cleaner and love that you can use different fuels. Push button start is a great feature too. Been running tools and welders off of it and it has all the power I need. Once we build our house, will use it as a backup house generator. Great buy.

Easy to Assemble and Use

I bought this generator to replace an older pull start model. This generator was easy to assemble, and the directions were clear and easy to follow. The generator starts easily with the push start! It is quiet and the remote is a nice feature for turning off the generator when the power is restored. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend this generator.

Excellent Features & Accessability

Just purchased this, cranked it up, has everything I'm ever going to need in a generator. Push Start is so easy, runs great with almost no vibration. All the buttons, plugs, etc. are well placed, & the handle and wheels make it super easy to move around. Very happy to have it.
