I've been wanting a dual fuel generator for a while and finally decided to purchase this Westinghouse iGen4500DF. It's much quieter than the classic generator's you might be used to and the ability to use either gasoline or propane is great, there's a selector on the control panel to choose fuel type. I intend to use primarily propane to extend the life of the carburetor when the generator sits for extended periods. The control panel will show hours run, voltage, fuel level, power output, etc and has push button start. This is a nice generator and I can't wait to really get into using it.

Been running this for close to a day. Seems to have a lot of power for the size. LOVE LOVE LOVE the remote start! Works like a charm. The only complaint I have is the location of the drain plug for the oil changes. There is a large wire in front of it that is a pain.

This Westinghouse inverter generator was recommended by Consumer Reports. It is powerful enough to run my furnace and appliances during an emergency. I will have a transfer switch installed so that I can run the generator without an extension. Nothing like peace of mind.

I bought the generator new two weeks ago.The fit and finish on the generator is top notch. Set up was very easy - adding oil. I like the threaded funnel tube that prevents spillage. A nice feature. Instruction manual easy to follow. It started right up on propane with the electric key fob. That's going to be a nice feature to use from inside my camper on a rainy day. My son and nephew already have this model for the past year and they love it. That helped in my decision to buy this one.

We just purchased this IGEN4500 DF and wanted something that would run our 15K BTU travel trailer AC unit when camping. IGEN4500 is portable, and light enough for my husband and I to unload it from our truck and for one person to roll it to where its needed. This IG has it all, remote start and stop, super quiet even under a power load, powerful and plenty of outlets, also has great fuel capacity. We have only used propane for fuel so I can't comment on gas efficiency at this time. Started on the first start with no issues. I love the electric start and remote! No more pulling a rope to start our old generator or refueling at 3AM. It feels like we hit the Lotto!

Hello. I just bought the IGEN4500DF generator. The only thing that does not satisfy me is the remote control. She doesn't always succeed in stopping the generator .... Sometimes I have to press several times before I can stop it. Up to 10 shots. I spoke to Westinghouse about it ... awaiting their response.

Purchased after much research. Decided on the igen4500DF to have the option of propane or gas. It was quieter then expected, and believe me I did a lot of research. Purchased to use with a ATC Toy Hauler. This will be more then enough to power as needed. I initially started the inverter on propane. Ran pretty rough on propane and would not maintain steady RPM. I went through the trouble shooting as instructed in the manual. Said the issue could be cause by gas left in the carb. (I'm guessing from testing at the factory.) Decided to run it on gas, and it ran incredibly smooth with steady RPM. After break in, (running for an hour with no load) and changing the oil, I decided to try the propane. While it was running on gas, I switched to propane and had no issues. Ran smoothly with steady RPM. My recommendation, break it in on gas. On side note about the break-in, I would certainly change the oil after the first hour. I have never been one to think that there was a need to, but I did see minute metal flecks in the oil after the first hour, as would be normal on any new engine. Overall, seems like a good product. Looking forward to getting out and using it on the hauler.

So far so good. Lots of bang for the buck. Westinghouse igen4500df inverter generator. Dual fuel, remote start, 4500 Watts. A little heavier than what I was anticipating, however not too heavy. Looking forward to using this generator as we take our RV cross country.

Just arrived, easy start up. First unit that arrived was damaged (ups). this unit seems solid except for a stripped screw on bottom side. Seems like it will work for our travel trailer/controlled edison power outages in our area.The remote start is a great feature for camping.

Generator arrived well packed in good condition. We were able to easily follow the setup guide for adding oil, connecting up the battery leads, connecting the propane hose and using the remote start. Unit started immediately and ran for about half an hour. The unit is remarkably quiet on propane. We could easily carry on a normal conversation right next to the running generator. The eco button slows the unit so it is even quieter when the unit idles between cycling loads like a refrigerator or freezer. The handle at the bottom of the generator gives great leverage; the unit is easy to move. Be aware! it is very heavy - don't try to lift it. Challenges will be whether the reported issues (choke not setting automatically, spark plug failure) crop up down the road. Otherwise we would have started at 5 stars.
