Easy to put together and started immediately

Received my generator today and everything, so far, is as advertised. The generator only took about 10 min to put the wheels and front bumpers on as well as add the oil. THe battery hook up only took a minute or two. Having the connections manufactured to be removed with a Phillips head screwdriver makes this very easy. THe generator cranked immediately. I haven't put it through a true test yet, but so far everything is great.

Great Generator

Setup was easy. Love the remote. Got me through a 48 hour power outage in Texas after 2021 winter ice storm. Powered refrigerator, microwave, several space heaters, electric blanket, essentially everything we needed in our house except the heat pump (space heaters took care of our heating needs).

Satisfied Customer

Purchased to provide emergency power for my home (and other things as well). The dealer's reviews (Power Equipment Direct) were so uniformly high that I changed my mind from the mfg I planned to use and purchased the W7500. Uncrated it, assembled it, fueled it and started up first press of the starter. Hope I don't need it for emergency any time soon, but am confident it will perform as advertised.

My Review of the Westinghouse 7500/9500 Watt Gen

I purchased my generator 4 months ago and found that I am glad I did. Our area in Tennessee had some ice/snow storms and it was just the thing to keep us going through 5 days of power outage at our home in February 2021. I did find that I overlooked one thing during the start procedure. The battery cable comes with a disconnect that has to be connected together before it will start. I should have noticed this because it is obvious when you look at the battery cable, but I did not find this step in the instructions so I missed it on my first attempt to start. After I connected the cable together, it was smooth sailing...it started right up and ran for a long time with over 12 hours run time with 5 gallons in the tank. I recommend this product.

Amazing Generator

I bought this to get ready for the next winter "disaster" here in Portland, OR. Just put it together and the electric/remote start is absolutely amazing. It was simple to assemble, simple to pair the remote and it keeps trying to start, automatically, until it succeeds! I love this generator and we are ready to not only power our stuff, but we can help our neighbors too!

Easy start, smooth power

This is a second generator for my house in the mountains. It starts first time every time, runs very smooth (no detectable frequency or voltage variations). Not super-quiet, but it is an engine after all. Transport handle makes moving it across gravel drive very easy. Overall - it does what a good generator should...starts, runs, generates good power.

Great generator

We purchased this generator to use as out main backup for whole house with a direct connect to panel. We have a family member that need medical equipment use with power. The generator is so easy for me who is (73 years old) to set up and start. This is such a welcome piece of mind.

Remote start and ran my whole home during hurricane.

Generator is quiet for its size, a little heavy to load in and out of a truck by ones self, but it rolls easily, starts easily and is fairly quiet for its size. I was able to run my entire 1600sq ft home on it by just turning off the AC, when I needed the water heater or the stove.

First impressions of my new generator!

Just received, packaging was in tact but in somewhat rough shape. Looks like generator was laying in its front side sometime during shipment. Some oil on inside of box due to fill plug not being tight; small dent on Westinghouse logo above the meter, but it doesn't look like it will affect anything. Gave it 4 stars only because we haven't run it yet, but the features look good.

works great!

We bought this in January, and have not had the chance to use it yet but it has run good on our test runs! It is a huge peace of mind to have this incase we need it! We did need an electrician friend to hook it up to our house. We did choose to purchase the power cord to hook it up as well as it did not come with that.
