Best Decision Ever

I bought this generator after a New England rain/wind storm that caused power outages for several days. The cellar sump pump was not able to operate without a generator. This generator had wonderful review and I couldn't be happier with the product. It is powerful and we just love the easy push button start feature. No more yanking with your arm to start the old manual way. Although, that method is still an option on this if it were needed. Has a great lift up handle for easy maneuvering. Love that it has an easy transfer switch if I choose to have my electrician do a small hookup on the side of my house. I bought the cover and it also fits great. I bought the gasoline fuel model and am happy with it, but they do now offer this same generator with a dual fuel option that works with either gasoline or a propane tank with just a flip of a switch.

My WGen3600's big brother!

After spending almost a week without power after a huge snowstorm, I decided it was time to buy a generator. After much reseach, I decided to go with Westinghouse - and I'm glad I did. This is a well-engineered, solidly built, quiet and dependable generator, worthy of the Westinghouse name. In fact, I bought two - a WGen3600 and a WGen 7500. I feel ready now for whatever winter brings next!

Excellent Product, Excellent Price!

I love my new WGEN 7500! It was easy to assemble and even easier to start. Feels well made and controls were designed with me in mind it seems. The electric start and battery disconnect are amazing features and I like that the product is backed by a three year warranty. Whenever a company gives that good a warranty, it usually means you will never need it. Thank you Westinghouse!

Great Features

This is replacing a 50 year old Coleman Generator. I always loved the Coleman generator but this new Westinghouse Generator is so easy to setup and great to use I almost want to take the house off the grid just to use the generator. I love the fact that I can stand in my kitchen and start the generator up. Westinghouse got this right.

Has all the features I need

This is a fully featured generator with a large capacity. I like that it is easy starting - either using the battery or the remote start fob. It was easy to assemble, mainly just installing the feet & wheels, adding engine oil & fuel, and hooking up the battery. It has four 120V plugs on the side and will also plug into 220/240V outlet. I bought this primarily to run our well pump, refrigerators, and chest freezer during power outages (which are more frequent now with climate change) but we should be able to run a few lights and keep our phones and computer charged also. We haven't had a power outage since we received it a week ago, but we're ready now.

Some difficulties setting up

I had some minor difficulties setting up the unit. The instructions contained a contradiction with respect to the cables to hook up to the battery. Had some trouble starting initially, but after checking the spark plug to make sure it was secure, it started with no problems. A licensed electrician installed a transfer switch and we tested the unit to make sure it could handle the circuits needed. It had no problem running my furnace, tv, fridge and several small appliance in addition to lights. Hopefully I never need to use it, but now I'm ready for an extended power outage.

Just Bought for Hurricane Season

Looks like a brute. Tired of being in the dark with spoiled food every hurricane season. Got the genset out of the box, read the instructions, gassed & oiled it & it fired right up. Loaded a few lights on & everything worked fine. Now we'll probably never have a hurricane again.

Best purchase for my home

Bought this to replace a smaller generator I had been using with power cords, was looking for something to power the whole house in case of a power outage of which we have had several over the past few years - many lasting over three days! This fit the bill, easy to start and plenty of power - I cannot say enough about this generator. Starts every time and good clean power output.

Powerful and sleek!

Bought this unit for emergency home backup from hurricanes/storms...assembly was easy all that's needed is attach the wheels,feet and add the oil that's supplied and gas unit fired right up with no issues at all. Good piece of mind living in a rural area to be able to run my deep well and take a warm shower when commercial power is out for an extended period...oh and the remote start is a super cool feature.
