Easy to put together

Single mom here.....I was able to assemble this generator by myself. No issues tipping it over onto its side to put on the wheels/supports. Instructions were very clear and I love the key fob for the remote start. Hardest part was moving the generator off the pallet into my garage. Once I did that-I cut down the cardboard sides to slide the generator around so I could tip it over. This is much quieter than my Hyundai generator I used to have and so.much.easier to start.

Well made and much quieter than others

Very easy to assemble ten minutes and I was ready to push the start button. Started right up,tested the remote and was able to start and stop it from inside my home The data center is nice it has a frequency mode so you can adjust ( 60hrtz is ideal for all your finicky tech) mine was at 61.2 which would be fine It's definitely well made and much quieter than others I've owned Very happy

Great Westinghouse WGen7500 Generator

Delivered right to my door in Milton FL. Comes with a plug-in cord to charge the battery, when the generator has not been used in a long time. Actually, anxiously awaiting a power-outage! Assembled in minutes! A beautiful looking unit as well. Would definitely it to a friend and love my new generator.

Tight product, almost perfect receipt

I have only ran the generator on small loads for short duration however I had zero issues with operation. My one gripe was that the product was delivered with the battery quick connect hot wire and the generator got wire disconnected from the solenoid. I think there is a nut missing that holds the wire ends on the solenoid but this was a pretty easy fix

So Far, So Good

My son bought this for me as a Christmas present. We took it out of the box the other day and "put it together" (put the wheels and footrests on). The machine looks great and we expect it will do the job--power our house the next time the electricity goes out. Unfortunately, neither an extension cord nor a cord to connect the generator to our house's electrical box were included--and those are quite expensive to purchase. Will update this review once we actually need to use the machine.

Broke it in after irma

Lost power for a few days after the hurricane. Kept two refrigerators microwave freezer and a whole lot other things running in my house without missing a Beat. Have some oil starting to leak that I have to get looked at but otherwise generator ran strong

Decent initial quality & easy start

I bought this a couple weeks ago and have yet to use it for real. But the the auto choke, battery charging, and supplied trickle charger work well and are great features. It started easily at about 60F ambient and initial quality was good except for a burr in one frame through-hole that had to be filed off to insert the wheel axel.

Outstanding Power and quality

The Westinghouse Gen7500 comes well packaged upon delivery with everything needed to run out of packaging other than Gasoline. I used the Gen7500 the 1st night on RV travel trailer and It ran everything, AC , Water pump, TV, Microwave, Fridge, ect without a hiccup. One thing I will still need to evaluate is run time on one tank of Gasoline. This seems to be over rated in marketing advertisement. Overall, Ran generator over night and was very satisfied with performance. Note: This is a very heavy Generator, so if you are going mobile , you will want to invest in some truck ramps to load and offload.

Great performance right out of the box

The generator was delivered 5 days ago. I unboxed and assembled in a few minutes. Added oil and gas. Started on first try. It's been powering my travel trailer reliably for the last 5 days. Electric start and remote start are so much better than pulling a starter cord.

Initial Impression, Assembly and Testing

The unit appears to be well made. With the exception of a stripped nut & bolt on the (-) pole of the battery, which was difficult to remove and then re-attach, the assembly instructions were straight forward. I've requested a replacement nut and bolt for the one that was stripped through Customer Support. The unit started easily during my initial testing. I cannot provide any additional information until our next power outage or I use the unit for an extended of time. Based on my initial impression of the unit I would recommend the unit.
