Walmart 1-star review by Bgish (title: "Gas Power not Working"). Brand-new WGen7500 DF would not start; Westinghouse phone support got it running on propane, then gasoline mode failed again and support told the reviewer to clean the hard-to-remove gas solenoid.

Source-linkedVerify source — User submission

Walmart 1-star review by DoKJL (title: "Seemed good at first..."). After about 6 months the dual-fuel generator would not start during a -20C outage (battery kept plugged in; pull cord also failed); later at near-freezing temps auto-start and remote would not even crank. Reviewer noted it was still under warranty but called the failure a massive disaster.
