Westinghouse iGen5000DFc Inverter Generator

I bought this for our RV trailer. It started up perfect. It worked with no issues when we connected it to the RV trailer. It runs the Air conditioner, refrigerator with no issues. We have not overloaded it and are adding extra load slowly. Great generator and it is working great!!!!

Useful Features

I purchased this generator for use on with my fifth wheel trailer. The features are helpful for what I need to do. Securing it was a bit tricky, but I found a way to anchor it to the platform with u-bolts and secure with lock and cable. It handles the need loads better than I expected!

Overall Good - Remote start needs improvement

After using two days; overall I am happy with the purchase, with one exception. I have found that leaving my RV plugged into the generator (RV ready plug) can cause the generator remote start battery to drain too low to use the remote start. This renders the remote start function basically useless. There should be a diode in the charging circuit to prevent this or a relay to disconnect the charging circuit from the generator battery when RV battery drops below a specific value. This seems like an engineering oversight, or perhaps a product defect in an otherwise solid product.

Great generator

I'm early into my ownership, but so far so good. As I am using this for a back-up power source, the dual fuel capability was important as I wanted a fuel source (propane) that could be stored for extended periods and remain stable. You lose a little output with propane, but it is worth it to me. Additionally, though more expensive, an inverter generator is a must for me to protect various hard-wired equipments with sensitive electronics. Based on my early experience, I'm considering a second inverter to run in parallel. If you want an economical back-up option, this is a good one.

Initial observations are great!

Just opened the box and have not operated this generator yet. I have researched generators for the past couple of years and decided to go with the Westinghouse iGen4500DF. This generator arrived well packaged, feels solid, and appears to be very well made. The user manual and quick start guides are very clear. I wanted a generator for RV camping and to run critical home appliances during a power outage. The dual fuel option was a must have and this generator certainly gives me a sense of security for my family in case of a SHTF situation. Can’t wait to get it broke in and operational.

Great price and quick delivery

I just received my new generator. It was an amazing price and arrived quickly. I just moved to Florida and desperately needed a quiet, dependable generator that didn't break the bank. So far so good. I'll try to post more feedback after my first use but I'm impressed so far.

Igen5000dfc generator

I only have had this generator for a couple weeks now. Very easy to unpack and get it going. Love the digital screen on it. It came with everything needed to use. I have had a honda 3000 inverter and the Honda is louder than this. Easy to move around. I bought it to run my motor home and so far I am impressed and I bought online and never saw it in person before I got it

iGen5000DFc

I purchased this Westinghouse iGen5000DFc and it was delivered today. Filled with oil and connected battery. Connected to a propane bottle and it cranked right up with no problem. Runs very quiet. Glad I purchased this. Will be prepared when next storm knocks out our power.

Super Quiet

I was able to test run my generator today. I was so pleased to have it start right up without a single problem. Running in propane mode was incredibly quiet. The remote start will be a real step saver. I am looking forward to our first trip out to give it a real time test.

Review for iGen4500DF

The generator came after a backlog of about 2 months. Setup was easy and it fired right up after putting gas into it. it is every bit as quite as the comparable competitor units for twice the money. push button start and keyfob remote are a nice touch.
