so far so good

It took 3 tries to get one I could keep but I finally have one that looks and runs good. I have only tried it for test purposes so far. I will only run this on propane. It started right up. When loaded up with big draw items, it didn't hesitate to increase power. It is a bit louder that I anticipated but still much quieter than most on the market. This is for emergency use only so hopefully I don't have to use it too much.

Still early but impressed

Just recently bought my 4500DF. I've run it through a break-in process and so far I'm very impressed. I expected to have quite a bit of junk in the first couple of oil changes but surprisingly everything came out reasonable clean. The generator is very quite and I'm anticipating many years of good service from it.

Second One

We bought our first Westinghouse generator over a year ago. Unfortunately, it was stolen from us. We were very happy with that one. So, when buying a replacement, we didn't hesitate to look for another Westinghouse. This time we wanted to try the dual fuel model. We have not been disappointed. While on a 10-day summer adventure, it performed very well. It ran pretty much 24/7 the entire time other than shutting it down for oil changes. We're hoping we will have this one much longer than the last. Thanks!

Excellent Dual Fuel Generator

Spent several weeks researching for a dual fuel generator. Looking for quiet, battery charger capabilities, dual fuel, good warranty, 4500 watts and a fair price point! The iGen 4500DF arrived and read the owners manual, installed the oil, hooked up the battery and it cranked using the start button as well as the fob. Residing in Texas and remembering February 2021 week of no power; now prepared!! Thanks Westinghouse!

Great RV Generator

Exactly what we wanted for our 20' RV. Runs the A/C, Refrigerator, Microwave and Lighting without any issues. We prefer to use propane since it is already on the front of the rv and eliminates having to haul gas, although it is nice to have the gas option if propane is not available. This generator has lots of reviews and seems to be the one that the rv clientele prefer. As an inverter, it also runs very quiet compared to a conventional generator.

So far so good

I just set this generator up and tested it out. It started immediately and was quieter than expected. Seeing as how I purchased this for emergencies, I hope to only use it in a testing capacity. After today's test, I have great confidence if it is needed.

Excellent Purchase

I bought this generator after reading mini reviews. I decided not to use gasoline but run it off of propane after setting it up according to instructions I connected the propane tank and low and behold on the first start. It started running. This is my second generator. My first was a Honda small inverter, which was OK, but this one seems to be more power for about the same price.

IGen4500DF Runs all I need

Still just breaking it in but so far on first day all went without a hitch. I am currently running my big garage on a circuits without an issue. This includes my standup freezer. Have not tried to run my welder yet as well. Way better and quieter than my old Biggs and Stratton 4500! Love that remote start too! Gonna use this baby on our travel trailer.this summer.

Loyalty Established

Bought this generator and was very pleased to see all the nice things that was said about this product were true. very surprised on how less noisy this generator is compared to the ones I hear in my neighborhood. I have a Samsung refrigerator that didn't like the previous generator, but with this generator, it worked like it was the normal electricity. I am confident this generator will perform very well.

Has everything!

Bought this to power our travel trailer. Has all of the features in one unit that competitors lack (integrated usb, and Dual Fuel!). This thing kicked on first try and ran smoothly. Having the option to run propane or gas and still have one of the largest gas tanks in comparison is what sold us. Great generator. Not AS quiet as I had hoped for, but still much quieter than an open frame.
