IGEN4500DF Generator

This one is a lot quieter than my old one and I like the fact that it is dual fuel makes it more versatile. Started right up after unpacking and following setup instructions. I can also pair it up with approved generator for more output. My only concern is running it at higher elevations as it says it needs a high elevation kit to run at 5000 ft elevation or above to get maximum performance output. I don't know how it will effect my warranty if I install it or do I need to have an authorized factory representative install it

Great Little Generator

I bought this inverter generator in July and have tested it with propane. It is pretty heavy but starter it without issue. I ran flawlessly and am in process of installing a connection to the house. I am confident this unit will work as expected when the need occurs.

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.

great product have a igen4500 not duel fuel

I Purchased an igen4500 not duel fuel approx 2 years ago and it has performed flawlessly. When I needed a second high output generator. I started looking for anther igen 4500. This inverter generator has performed better than I had hoped for the remote start allows me to start without going outside make my coffee and shut down. Extremely quiet, does not annoy neighbors, runs forever n a tank of fuel.

Great Generator

I bought the igen4500DF 20 days ago and am impressed with the quality and features. I have only run it with gas so far, but I'm confident this unit will meet our needs. The left side panel was cracked upon delivery. I was able to contact support easily on a Sunday. The parts department obviously wasn't open an but a case was opened. I am sure this will be resolved quickly.

Has everything I wanted.

This is a very sophisticated machine! Its pretty quiet, and has remote start, dual fuel, parallel capability and a "suitcase-type" handle to wheel it around. It also makes a few more watts than most of the similar units I looked at. It is clearly a cut above the competition. Customer service answered a question I had via phone immediately. When you register the machine with Westinghouse, you need the serial number. It is found on a barcode "sticky" tag that has the number on it. But it doesn't say serial number.

Remote start and dual fuel

I purchased on Monday and received it on Friday,filled it with included oil,connected the battery and filled the fuel.After a few attempts to start,it fired up.Quiet yes.... I have owned a few different brands and I am amazed at how quiet,I purchased this unit because of the dual fuel and remote options. I have not tried the propane yet but will in the near future. I will recommend this unit to my friends

Love the Portability and Light weight

I bought this to have for Hurricane season in Florida and specifically for my 2 KOI ponds if the power goes out. This is perfect to move to the ponds and will be perfect to give power to both ponds. It is light weight and easy for me to move around. We have 2 other larger Westinghouse generators for the house and absolutely love their product! I would definitely recommend to a family member or friends.

Lots of feature in a small quiet package

I like the generator well enough to order this one being the second one I own. The features are there, thesound level is good, the ease of use and portability. I do have a compaint, my first one won,t start, I have read all the reviews and tried all the quick fixes. I would have to say coustomer sevice, is almost nonexistant. The phone calls get cut off after being on hold for ever, when you finally get someone it is a operator, telling you to get on line, to submit you questions or orders. At this time my online contact has not been addressed. It is too bad that a good product has such bad followup. I hope to get some responce soon, living in a rual area is a problem, being you have to find and take it to one of there approved, repair shops, in order for it to have warranty parts replaced with no labor paid for, for my situation that requires 200 miles of travel to get it back home and lots of down time.
