Bought for power outage and travel trailer usage. Somewhat rough idle initially, hopefully will settle after break in. No issues with start up and automatic choke though and consistent voltage so far. Excited to use with travel trailer this spring summer

This is an awesome generator and a proven well built unit. Upon receiving, I pulled access panels to inspect the factory quality control. To my surprise I found many nice added features I didn’t expect. For example is the rubber plug to allow oil to be drained easily. Also to carburetor has a drain tube attached for easily draining carb and fuel tank when needed for storage. The included oil will fill the engine, leaving you an ounce or so for adding if needed during break in. Use the provided oil during break in, then you can stay with the mineral oil or go to synthetic. Upon inspection, the interior bolts were properly tightened. All wiring was routed, strapped and protected. Taking an interior look at the build revealed plenty of noise insulation, a blower system on the end of the crankshaft provides great air flow to the exhaust/muffler area for cooling and forcing heat out of the unit and drawing cooling air into the interior. Easy access to the air cleaner, spark plug, carburetor, fuel drain, valve cover and fuel filter is accomplished by removing right access cover. The included battery had 12.7 volts before charging to freshen the battery and the quick disconnect battery harness is a very nice extra. The engine is nicely rubber mounted and purred quietly, smoothly and especially on the echo mode which allows the engine to slow substantially when a large load is not needed, which extends efficiency. The only thing I found inspecting the unit was the engine valve cover breather hose was not pushed completely onto the intake manifold box and had no clamp. When removing panels, ensure you have removed all anchor bolts and note some are hidden under rubber weather plugs. Exterior panels pop off easily, when all anchor bolts removed. Picture attached reflect some of the items described in this review. The price of this I-gen 5000DF is very competitive for a generator of this quality and I’m very pleased initially. After some use camping I may update my findings.

I finally was able to get it out of the box and fire it up. I have not loaded it up much but it works great for what i have done so far. Kind of hard starting on Gasoline in the cold weather, but starts great on Propane. I will start on propane to warm it up, then switch to gasoline. No problem.

Purchased new in the box. Won’t idle choke problem. Choke keeps opening and closing repeatedly. Called service and after over 1 hour on hold I got a customer service rep. This rep is not a Tec support person. She had no way to transfer me to service. She took my number and here I wait for a call back this is day 2. Store I bought from refuses to take a return

Even though we aren't ready to put it to the test quite yet, of course I wanted to fire it up and see how it performed. Set up was simple, and after following the instructions to connect the battery and fill with oil, I connected the propane, checked for leaks, the fired it up. First with the push button, next with the remote, then finally with the manual crank. Easy and flawless. We then hooked up our camper's 30A line, tested out the air conditioner, and it was just like we were hooked up to shore power. We shut the door, turned off the AC and could barely hear the unit humming just a few feet away from the camper. Looking forward to many years and adventures with this unit!

This unit is nice! Ton of features and relatively quiet. I did run into an issue where there was a small leak in the bottom of the unit (the drainage hose used for keeping the unit in long term storage). Turns out I needed to tighten a screw after disassembling the generator slightly. I'm excited to use this generator with my travel trailer this season.

Bought for emergencies. Seems like it has a lot of nice features. Love the remote start. Seem like it has plenty of power and starts easy. Not sure how often I will use propane to power but it is also a nice option. Most of the time I will be running it on gasoline. Its heavy, but handle is a nice feature as are the wheels. Its also very quiet when running. Wondering how it would work operating at altitude and in the cold. Like to see the exhaust higher so it would be further off ground for camping. Can't give 5 stars because longevity is unknown at this time.

Worked great out of the box. I chose the model without the electric start as it is lighter, cheaper, and has no battery to keep charged/replace. Runs well on propane, however, I have not been able to start it on propane. Not really any issue as I'll be keeping it full with treated gas. . Read the manual and make sure you follow the break-in process.

I just got this today. Added oil, connected battery, hooked it up to propane, and it fired it right up. It's been running now for an hour and I love it. So far I love it. Can't wait to go camping or wait for a power outage I'm ready. It's supper quiet and purrs like a kitten

We are new to Florida and wanted to prepare for any power loss. I read the reviews and decided to go with Westinghouse a well known company. We read the easy instructions and finally tested the product. Boy, we were so impressed with the quality and the low noise. Hopefully we’ll never have to worry, but we feel confident with this product.
