Have purchased multiple power tool items over the years and seems like everyone that had a gasoline engine had issues about starting the first time but not this one. After reading the instructions and adding oil and gas the unit started on the first try using the push button start feature. Tried all outlets and everything works as it is supposed. Hope to get years of service from this generator.

I ordered this big boy for my elderly dad, it has kept the fridge running along with 3 fans , phones charged and we connect the electrical range as needed. It took a day for us to figure out how to enable the auto remote control. Luckily my cousin came over to help and you have to connect the battery it has to them be able to enable the auto remote control start which was one of the reasons o went with this generator. My dad would not be able to do the traditional pull plug to get it started, heck I could not even get mine going during the last hurricane at my house, I had to get help from my neighbors. The only thing is this baby is a gas quencher so keep that in mind get more than one big gas tanks for back up. We had a 5 and 2.5 gas tanks that we are having to fill up daily. I am so happy after the tornado I made this purchase for my dad so we were ready for Beryl. Still waiting for power to be restored right now but thanks to this big boy he is as comfortable as can be for now.

I live in hurricane central (MS gulf coast) so I need a generator that I can not only count on but one that's easy to start. After doing research, I went with this generator because of features and the brand name. Westinghouse is a name that I've grown up with and trust. In addition to the standard pull rope, this unit has an push button starting option and I like the fact that it has a low oil level shutdown safety in case the oil level drops to an unsafe level.

I purchased this before winter and don't have any regrets. we lose power about once a month but rarely for more than a day. This is the perfect size and outputs for me. The electric start quit working after a couple of months but the pull start works real quick every time. It puts out plenty of power to keep my two freezers cold and my internet working. The gas tank is large enough to last throughout the night without any concerns.

I officially upgraded from a 2500 W generator built in 1801 (not really but looks like it). Im an electrician and i've been researching generators for months now. I live in a smaller house that loses power 4-7times a year average. This is overrkill, im a firm believer of, i would rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it. zero knowledge of generator start up and all that, this cranked on first try. zero issues. did a quick test to see what it could hold, and besides my AC and range, it didnt even hiccup. VERY satisfied customer. spend the money. You get what you pay for.

I used it 25 hours to power my home. It easily powered a refrigerator and a large freezer, TV, computer, and all the lights simultaneously. I powered a water heater and house furnace and microwave separately when needed. It ran 11 hours on 6Gal of gas.

I did a lot of research before making this purchase, and am glad I chose it. I was very impressed with how easy it was to prepare for operation. Didnt have to go looking for tools, oil, or funnel. It was all included. Literally 15 minutes after delivery, it was running. I'm looking forward to our next power outage !

I have not found a single other generator with all of the many features that this baby has and for such a reasonable price to boot. Remote starter, electric start, battery charger built in, pull start, seriously it's got way too much to list, you'll see if you read the specs. I haven't started her up yet and will report back when I do.

I just received my W generator 7000 was excited to get it. I like doing things on my own,this give me more freedom. Meaning I'm a woman I like working on my own ranch ,this gives me the opportunity it has electric start with wireless remote start. so I can be out on my own and don't have to stop go get my husband to pull start... can't wait to try it out..

We bought this portable generator in order, mostly, to ensure we'd have heat in the winter during the more and more frequent power outages that occur. Not only will we have that, but a great deal more to keep life going along without the "normal" power we are all so dependent on. After researching generators a lot, I've no doubt we made a great purchase.
