Goog features

I have a Wgen7500 that is now 4 yrs old that I only use to backup the house after outages. Really like the electric start and it is straight forward to use. Only wish it wasn't quite as loud. If you were going to run this all the time you would want to build a sound enclosure. Bought this current model for my mother who wanted a battery start model for her house and after researching from many locations I ended up with the same model I previously purchased. She will be able to have a barrier between her house and the generator so noise should not be so much of an issue. Have not had it started yet but arrived in good shape, all components included, have it filled with the provided oil and just charging the battery now. I will say the custom oil funnel provided is also very nice..

I love this generator

I researched long and hard before I chose the wGen7500 and I am very happy I made this choice. Compared with other generators I have had in the past, this one is an ace. Easy to assemble and use and with a remote control feature, they do not get any better than this.

Great

Ordered this generator after purchasing my new house that has a sump pump. I needed a generator in case the power goes off. Put in the gas and oil and it started up with the first push of the start button. Easy to assemble and easy for me to hook up. I am a single woman and needed something easy with a power starter.

Great full featured Generator

I use this generator for back up power. I am disabled now and can not pull a starter rope for my other generator. This generator also holds an extra gallon gas so more run time. The gas gauge and hours meter are important features as well. The wheel kit and handle provide a nice balance and make for easy moving. I have worked in the trades for 40 years and I am familiar with the Westinghouse name. I am sure I will be pleased with this gen.

Great Generator!

Purchased WGen7500 as a backup power source for my home. Easy to set up, battery comes charged, oil is included - just added gas, pushed a button and it fired right up. I like the FOB control and the design as well. Best portable generator I have owned so far.

Looks good out of the box.

I wish there were easier to access information about the accessories and features. If you use this for an RV some campgrounds require you use an exhaust extension. It has a built in transfer switch ready port. That should be a showcase but it isn't hardy mentioned.

Great Portability and Easy Setup

Just received my new Wgen7500 and within minutes it was ready to run. Added oil, gas and installed legs,wheels, and pushed the start button on remote. It started up immediately. Really like the auto-choke feature that is activated with remote start. Though the unit weighs around 200 lbs it is easy to move because of the wheels and mechanical advantage provided by folding handle.

What a Beast!

I just purchased and set up my new generator, I couldn't be happier. This thing is heavy, but once you get the wheels installed, moving it around with the included handle is a breeze. Pros: large gas tank, plenty of power, remote start, electric start or pull cable, comes with a battery charger and everything you need to get this thing up and running. Cons: its loud as hell

Great portable generator

I am totally satisfied so far. Overall great performance. The WGen7500 is a dependable and powerful solution to your portable power needs. A beautiful looking unit as well. The electric start & remote worked perfectly. The noise level of this Westinghouse generator is just a few DBs lower than other generators that produce this much power.

Nice generator with extra featurs

Arrived with no damage, easy assembly but it would not start. I found the battery positive cable unplugged from the engine cable and stowed out sight but It took two hours trouble shooting to find it. If this is now a factory procedure it should be in the manual to eliminate a lot of cussing, I was getting close to sending it back. It works as advertised now.
