Make sure the VFD of choice will run on single-phase. Some have phase
loss
detection which shuts down the unit if a phase goes down.

Is that a parameter that can be changed through programming?

I am in the market for a VFD. The motor it is driving is a 10HP Baldor
3 phase. I have single phase power (100amp service). Talking to a
recommended online supplier they suggest a 20HP VFD, which from what I
have read sounds reasonable. My question is in what brand to get.
They have 20HP Westinghouse/Teco for about $1200, and a surplus 25HP
WEG for $850. I'd rather spend more dough if the WEG gets questionable
results. Thanks for the input!
