Quality merchandise & service

This is my second Wgen7500 generator. The price is very competitive for the amount of amps you get out of it. The battery powered self start is a great feature as well as the remote. Easily assembled, fill with oil (supplied) and gas you're ready to go.

Easy to use and works great

We had considered buying a generator and we had a power outage that lasted a couple of days. We started looking and the wGen7500 had great reviews and enough to run our appliances and not lose food in our big freezer or refrigerator. We also had lights, cell phone chargers, etc. The directions were very good, it was relatively easy to set up and started on the first try. So far we love it. Thanks

Really Impressed

Our previous generator started acting up about a year ago. We purchased it 7 years ago and we only hoped we could replace it with a new one that would perform as well. A little early to tell, but our first impression was outstanding. The WGen7500 is considerably quieter than our last generator. The features are outstanding. Push button and remote starts that delay power for 15 seconds before sending electricity to the panel. This should help prevent damage to sensitive electronics. Also, shut down stops the electric current immediately and after a few seconds the generator stops. Large gas tank (6 gallons) keeps refueling less often. This model is much more efficient than the previous one. 16 hours run time per tank compare to the last one which gave us about 8 hours on 5 gallons. Not sure why the generator makers can't get on board with a standard oil reservior - 1.1 L or 1.16 quarts. My sister ordered the same model for her cabin. Will be up in a few weeks to set her's up. I think she will be impressed also.

Works Great!

I bought this for 2 main reasons. One was to run a 240v space heater in a shop in the winter and the second was to run a 240v MIG welder. This generator seem to run both items (not simultaneously) without a problem at all. I love the remote feature as I can shut the generator off from within my shop, not having to go out in the 30 degree weather to do so. Very pleased with my purchase.

Great Company

From the purchase over the phone to the delivery to my garage door, all went well. Could not have asked for anything better. I look have not yet started this unit, it's been a little busy around here. I'm sure everything will be fine. I also know if a problem does come up, I'll be taken care. Thank You.

Great Features

We don't know much about generators but knew we needed one. We decided on this one and the instruction manual is quite detailed. It has many plugs and features on it. My husband tested the remote starter and it worked quite well. We can plan for the storm and still be able to remote start it from inside of the house. Only needed 6 gal of gasoline to fill the tank. Lots of nice extras that other generators didn't have. Overall we are happy with our purchase. Only wish it had dual fuel sources.

Great Value

Just received the generator and set it up with no problem using the instructions. Everything preformed as advertised without any issues. It's a little loud for me, but a small price to pay for the security of having an emergency electrical source - the reason I purchased this product. I believe that the price was reasonable and fair, because I did my due diligence and priced quality and value.

Powerful and easy to start

I looked at many generators and nothing compares with the WGen7500 for the money. With 7500W continuous and 9500W surge/start up I can run an air condioner for one room lights throughout the house my wife's O2 concentrator, TV, refrigerator and anything else I want. I believe that I could put on the whole house ac unit but still need to give that a test.

Excellent efficient generator

This generator has a remote stop and start. 1) push button start is super if anyone has spent time yanking a pull start forever. 2) the remote setup allows you to not waste gas while power is up but monitor if power goes down. Excellent feature. The reason I bought this generator was the remote. In a power outage I have enough things to worry about, I don't want to be worrying about starting a generator or burning resources while the power is on (when it comes back). Manually tuning a generator (start/stop/cut off when power comes back/cut when not in use) is the last thing I want to be babysitting.

Easy to Use Generator

Easy to set up. I love the size of the fuel tank and the charger for the battery. It did kick off after something popped off loudly with a burnt smell. No idea what it was but easily turned it back on. I wish it was quieter but you get what you pay for. I do love the ease of rolling it around with the attached bar. Buttons are easily identifiable and easy to use. FOB didn't work, I may have to change the internal battery.
