Great Machine

I picked up my generator this morning. So far extremely pleased. The directions were spot on, no issues whatsoever. After adding the required fluids, she turned over beautifully. Contrary to some reviews on the noise level, I find the WGen 7500 rather quieter then my previous generator and others I have heard. My only disappointment is not able to get the bonus to cover/protect this real machine..

Awesome Generator

I live in SE Texas and with all the hurricanes, you can never be too prepared. This generator will be helping to keep me and my family safe during these rough times. I love the remote start and stop feature and that is not too loud while running outside my home. This will also help me keep my power tools powered with all my remote jobs.

So far so good

Came packaged very well, putting wheels on a piece of cake easy, only thing that was a puzzler, was initial hook up. In the manual it talks about hooking up the battery cables to the battery, when I looked at mine, they are already on and tight. So I figured I was good to go. I was trying to get it going after dark in the cold, and looking at the side it looked like everything was connected. Could not get it to turn over. Was able to start with rope pull, but could not get the button to kick it over. Just left it came out during daylight and looked closer. Look at photo Gen 1, it looks like everything is good. Gen 2 actually shows the battery plug was not hooked up, which is reasonable for shipping...once I plugged in, it fired up perfect. The over all look of the machine is excellent. I upgraded from a 6500 constant to this 7500 constant. I will come back later and up date.

Better Than Expected

This is my second Westinghouse generator as I needed to move from a 120V to a 240V connection. Hated giving up the reliable iGen4500 but this one is sturdy, was easy to set up and starts quickly. I expect it will serve us well as we deal with weather-related outages in our rural area.

Easy start, plenty of features

Purchased this Gen due to power outage at home, we live in a rural area and when power goes out we have no heat, no water and no sewer.Gen ran for almost 48 hours, saved our basement from flooding, saved all our food in freezer and allowed use to continue to have water

7500-9500

I've been in concrete work for 50 yrs, bought alot generators over the years, but this 1 is far above the rest. starts easy, runs hard, pretty quiet, 30 amp plug, just can't say enough good stuff about this 1, & it was fun the 1st time i used the key fob remote. haven't had this much fun in a long time- REALLY !!!!!!!

Works Great! Needed it for our Well Pump

Bought this WGen7500 at Christmas time to run our well pump because our old generator was too old to work. This Generator works great, easy to assemble, great instructions and nice power output. We had an electrician put in a new electric box for our well pump to work with the new generator plug and it all works great. Wish we had gotten this years ago!

Beyond expectations!

I did a lot of research for a good generator and decided to go with the wgen7500. I couldn't find any reason not to buy this generator. It was so simple to setup and came with everything you need to run it. Build quality is amazing. The price is great for what you get. The remote start feature is pretty cool. Its a real powerhouse, I don't see much this generator couldn't handle for household use. Its pretty quiet for a generator this size. Overall beyond happy with my purchase and research paid off looking for the right one. You wont be disappointed if you go with this generator!

Runs Good!

The WGen7500 generator is working great, but better battery setup directions should be updated in the documentation. There are two wires that are zip tied together. You need to cut the zip tie and connect the 2 wires. The rest of the setup is fine.

Easy to start and quiet.

I was pleasantly surprised to find the engine mounted on rubber engine mounts like a car engine. The engine was easy to start, even with the pull cord. I left it running on the side of my house, and from the front of my house I could barely hear it at all.
