Has a lot of power and looks well built.

This is my first generator; the ability to use either gasoline or propane was a key decider for me. Of course I read all the positive reviews and was impressed by the experiences of other users. A few days ago I hired an electrician to configure my home power box so that if the main city power goes out I can easily connect the generator via a 30 amp cable to my home circuits, We tested it and found the generator powered everything except for my central A/C. There are some precautions of course, for example we could overload the generator if we use too many high wattage accessories at the SAME time (eg microwave, toaster oven, hot water boiler, washing machine) . But that is what we expected from a 7500 watt generator. It was tested on propane, started right away and frankly was not as loud as I thought it would be. I don't know how many hours it would run on a 15 gal propane tank; that info will come in time. If I had to list one negative aspect it would have to be its weight of nearly 200 pounds. Even with wheels it requires a lot of strength to move. Nevertheless, I recommend you buy this generator; I don't think it will disappoint you.

Has all the features we wanted and more!

Just bought it last week and can't wait to test it out soon! This has all of the features we wanted and so much more! After reading all of the reviews of the no name brand I couldn't risk putting my family at risk to save a couple of bucks, so I feel like we went all out instead! :)

Starting a warranty claim...

I have had this generator for a year or so and used to power a small cabin on a ranch in west Texas. Overall I haven't had a lot of problems and has mostly been reliable up until now. I've maintained the unit and changed the oil as recommended. The power is more than adequate and the remote start is a great convenience. It seems to be sensitive to heat - it has shut down a few times and seemed to be related to heat in west Texas. After a cool down, it would restart and run. It does sit for a few weeks between uses. Recently it shut down suddenly after running for about 12 hours overnight, and now will not start again. It is backfiring and sputtering. I drained the tank and changed the fuel and it did not help. My next step is to open a warranty ticket before I begin pulling off carb etc. To be continued...

Compact Powerful Generator

I just ordered this generator, so I can't speak for its durability. That being said the build quality appears to be fantastic. I shopped around for quite a while, comparing different brands and features, in the end the WGen7500DF appears to be the clear winner for me. It is relatively compact compared to other generators with similar power output. I like that I won't have to deal with flat tires ever with this model I also like that it has a metal gas tank.The only negative I can see is the oil drain plug could extend out farther to make oil changes easier, but not a huge deal in the grand scheme.

Nice Generator

I purchased this generator to replace a small 1000 Watt generator that I used during power outages. The WGen7500DF provides enough power to run my boiler, keep the lights & TV on and keep the cable/internet powered. It is quieter than I expected and easy to move.

Not enough gas?

I recently bought this generator. I just did a test run. Propane worked fine. But, I couldn't get the generator to turn on using gas. I only bought 1 gallon of gas, since it was just a test. Fuel gauge was barely registering fuel. Hope this is not going to be a problem during a real situation. I sent an email to customer service for feedback. I liked the remote start, and the data center. It worked well with my transfer switch.

Easy set up.

Just did the little assembly required. The rear wheel mount had shipping damage and had to be straightened so the axle would fit. Most time went to fixing that. Everything else looks good. Have not started it as yet. Will do the break in later this week..

Best purchase for Hurricane season we ever made

We bought this generator in preparation for upcoming hurricane season here in Florida. We have the house fixed so that we can connect this generator to the outside meter and run most of the home. It runs very smoothly and is extremely versatile. The remote start is great but I am impressed that they included a trickle charger for the battery. Good job Westinghouse!

Great features

I bought this after Hurricane Ida to be prepared for the next one. I am very pleased with the numerous options it provides! Installing the front mounts and wheels was a breeze. Electric start and the option of using gas or propane were the things I liked best..

Dual Fuel and Remote Start the best

The dual fuel is a bonus but I actually bought for propane as less expensive and had it hooked direct to a 250 gallon tank at my hunting camp. Remote start is the other reason, probably more important. Works right from my kitchen table on sub 20 degree mornings and powers the entire building.
