Started Right Up!

Travelled 200 miles for a generator after 3 days without power after a hurricane. Got this home, put it together per manufacturers instructions, and then hit the start button. Started up like a champ. Glad to have a quality generator that works when you need it.

Excellent generator with quality features for the money

i did alot of research and found that for the money the wgen 7500 had the features i wanted. it has the electric start with remote and also has a backup pull start. it comes with easy assembly instructions for the wheels and adding the oil. very satisfied with purchase.

Used for city wide power outage

I just purchased 2 days ago for a 3 day power outage and it was very simple to get up and running and was able to power what I needed to get through. I am however curious why my 7500s model doesn't appear on any the website and even an employee of Westinghouse never heard of this model.

Easy to start and runs well!

We bought this last November but did not need to use it until a few weeks ago when a storm blew some trees down and we lost power. It worked great to power the majority of our house needs with a transfer switch on our panel. It is easy to move around super easy to start, which is a great feature.

Received Damaged

Haven't ran it yet. But upon opening the box, i noticed some dents and chipped paint. There is also oil residue present. The dents and paint most likely happened during shipping. The oil is my main concern hopefully its nothing and everything runs as supposed to.

BAD BOY
5 out of 5 stars review

THE GREAT TEXAS WINTER

I bought this bad boy in 2019. I live in Texas and I was preparing for Hurricane seasons. And haven't used the generator at all. Well now that the GREAT TEXAS WINTER has arrived I would like to tell all that are looking into buying this generator that, I have a transfer switch set up for my house, the the last two days I have been on generator power 100%. I have two refrigerators running, the gas heater, but it has an electric fan, microwave TV, internet and assorted lights throughout the house. This bad boy generator has run all of them without a hiccup. The only problem was my mistake I let the battery go dead while it sat idle. Happy to say that two pulls on the pull cord and it fired right up. It's a little on the loud side but no more than any generator it's size. Really though who cares how loud it is when you're freezing. Bottom line is, for me and my Sons family this “BAD BOY” of a generator was a life saver. Now my Son is getting one. And if this turns out to be the generator you choose I think you'll be happy with it, I know I am. Now bring on Hurricane season.

Good generator for the price!

Just received at home. Easy assembly. Only issue when it was boxed at factory and wasn't inspected the bottom clasp on air filter cover was all bent up and didn't hold cover on. Straighten out. Filled oil and gas and ran for awhile. Quieter than the one I had for 30 years. Will write review in future after I need to use it for home!

Easy to read features.

Purchased this month. Haven't used yet but look forward to utilizing it. Will not only use for backup power but also for providing power to my electric saws on my 14 acre tract of land. Put it on trailer and away we go. Look forward to the electric start as I'm 80 years old and pull coard generator was becoming a chore.

Easy to setup and run

This generator is about as straight forward as they come. Setup took less than 1 minutes. This unit will keep us comfortable and safe after hurricanes and that is very important to me and my wife. Living in Miami Florida this generator gives us a lot of peace of mind. It has more than enough power for all of the basics in an emergency.

This Generator Rocks

The generator was delivered during a cold spell, it was 10 degrees the say it arrived. We assembled it that evening because a storm was predicted for 2 days later. She fired right up after out of the box. I really wanted to run her for about an hour but didnt because it was late that evening. After about a week of 0 to -30 degree weather I decided to try her out, went out to the garage and she fired right up. Don't forget to put a charge on the battery even if it starts out of the box, mine did not have a full charge and I was skeptical of it starting after a week of sever cold. I tested her out for a few hours and played with her, I really love it She fires right up and will power whatever I need to power. The remote is pretty cool, I stood in my hour and shut her off and let her cool down before I put her away. Its nice to have peace of mind that I will be ready the next time a major storm hits. We are located in Maine and ice storms and down power lines are a regular event. For features, it has a lot of bang for the buck, the features it has would cost several $100 more dollars on other generators.
