Good features

I wanted a dual fuel generator with electric/remote start and this generator had the features that I was looking for. I have not had a chance to really put it to work but so far it is performing very well. The only possible negative comment I have so far would be the ease of accessibility of changing oil. This is yet to be determined since I have not changed the oil yet.

The IGEN4500DFc - Is the best Generator out there!

I bought my first IGEN400 back in 2017 and just bought me a second one with Dual Fuel. My first one never skipped a beat and has been effiecient since the first day I got. Plugged the new one into the battery and filled it up with oil, plugged in the propane and it fired rite up first try. I was hoping the any connectors and choke switch were all operating right from the ship. The plastic on the unit smells so good I don't want to get it dirty!! IGEN4500 are the best bang for the buck!

great unit

Great generator! Easily runs everything in travel trailer including, 13,500 btu a/c, fridge , lights, and a microwave (for a couple of minutes,and at only 75 % output when all going at same time) I am about to buy a second to run at least the kitchen in house for power outage situations

Amazing product

We do a lot of camping and we primarily camp in primitive so we use generators all the time this is so quiet we can hardly tell if it's still running and the remote start feature is amazing especially when you're laying in bed and your campers hot and you don't want to get up to turn on the generator to run your AC!

Fantastic Duel Fuel Gennie

I initially went with a different brand for a dual fuel generator but I'm glad it didn't work out. The Westinghouse fires up immediately and purrs quietly. I haven't used this that much yet (bought it for emergency use) but I believe it's going to serve me well when the time comes.

Complete Kit, Easy To Get Started

So far so good. Generator is operating just fine during break in period. We plan on using this for our RV while remote camping. It is on the heavy side, but we use a ramp to get it up and down out of the truck. We plan on using the 5W-30 synthetic oil as it has a wide temp range. Not too loud so far

Impressive First Run...

We experienced a 20 hour power outtage 2 days before Christmas, so I vowed to take the plunge and make sure were were never without power again. We received the unit much sooner than expected. I prepared the unit and gave it a good 5 hour "Break-in", varying the load as required. Nice, quiet, smooth running engine. It performed flawlessly as it did its job. Now 'm almost hoping for a power outtage.

Awesome Inverter/generator

Bought this to power my 5th wheel RV while dry camping. Have slow start capacitors on both 15k A/C units. After starting each separate, runs both with no problems. Very quite for a 4500. Ran gasoline thru it only once, have used nothing but propane since. Have over 400 hours with no issues.

Starts right up

Just got this unit to run parallel with my iGen 2500. I am adding high altitude kits to both generators since I'm in Colorado at almost 6,000 ft. Look forward to getting lots of use out of these and being ready for any power outages. Gotta keep that refrigerator and freezer chest running.

So far, so great!

I purchased this generator after having a competitor's (red, HF model). Well, I actually had 2 of theirs after the first wouldn't power my AC on my trailer I traded it in on a new one. The second one didn't either and either said "overload" or CO censor issues. So far so good/great with this one and I'm excited to get to use it with our competition BBQ trailer this weekend.
