Arrived in good condition, runs well

The WGEN7500DF arrived in good condition. The side with the box of wheels & parts had a puncture but no apparent damage to the generator. To pull-start the unit, it was an easy pull but I had to manipulate the electric choke for it to start. To pushbutton-start the unit I just pushed the button and it fired up promptly. Have not yet tried operation on propane fuel. We had a short power outage shortly after receipt, assembly, oiling and fueling, and successfully used the generator to power our house (submersible well pump, oil furnace, refrigerator). It is only slightly quieter and a little higher pitched than our slightly smaller capacity, circa 2010 portable generator. The onboard meter shows 240V at just under 63Hz output.

Easy set-up and start

Since I had to tackle this project of putting the unit together on my own for the first time, I was a bit nervous to say the least. I followed the carton opening directions and was able to successfully put the unit together. I then found the oil access( because of the photos) and filled the unit with the oil which was provided. I was able to locate all the swithches and familiarize myself with them. The gasoline was quite easy to find and fill. I stepped back and was ready! I pushed the "start" button. IT STARTED! I was amazed! I had done it!! Summary: Great directions and photos. Thank you!

Researched several models and brands before settling on this one. Took it out of the box, put the wheels and feet on it, filled it with oil and it fired right up. Perfect for my application (backup power for a large reef aquarium in the event of an outage). Runs well on gas and propane.

So far, very pleased. Excellent packaging, simple assembly, and it started on the first push of the button. Not looking forward to using it (emergency backup), but looking forward to having it to use.

So far, so good

Purchased this for it's dual fuel capability. Plan to only run it on propane. Will be used exclusively during power outages at home. Easy to assemble (feet, wheels, add oil, etc.). Started right up. Type of product you hope you never need to use, but in the event we do need it, seems like it will do the job.

Hard to start

It seems to be hard to start. It takes two to three times to start in automatic mode. After having it run for awhile it starts easier.

Westinghouse 7500DF
on March 26, 2018
Posted by: Drew
from East Hampton, CT
I received the generator with no damage noted. The fit and finish were very good. After attaching wheel kit and hooking up battery I filled with oil and proceeded to start unit after filling with gas. The unit started right up and appears to be reasonably quiet and well made. The only criticism I have is that there is no mention about the supplied battery charger as to whether to keep it hooked up to the unit or when to charge it.
I would recommend this to a friend!
