Just what i wanted

Easy set up, all the features I wanted, quiet for its size even under a load. I also own an iGen 2600. Very pleased with my purchase.

Choke problems

I did not use for two months and when I did It started hard and smelled of gas after a short time of running had a puddle under it. Westinghouse offered to send new carburetor and gave me a name of a shop. I have not had time to get it fixed yet. When running it’s quite powers my tools.

Tested well

I have tested on propane and it picked up the load well. remote start is nicely implemented. You push the button once and it cranks till it starts even enough if the LPG line needs to purge. the monitor display doesn't work but I expect to get that solved with the company's warranty people. Will go in 5th. wheel. Engine had quite a bit of metal after ~1 hour running with a 20 amp load. After the oil change the oil looked pretty good. There is no filter on these type engines, I would recommend one of the magnetic oil level dip sticks to pick up any magnetic bits in the oil.

Quiet Compared to the one we returned!

We just received the IGEN Westinghouse generator and started it. It is much quieter than the one we had purchased at first. Also, this one will be good for technology equipment. The enclosed case is nice and the unit is more compact. We like the handle and wheels for moving it around. Have not actually used it yet.

Best of all worlds

A lot of power for the size and features. I looked around for months and for the features, dual fuel and power there is nothing out there that compares. It is not as heavy as I thought it was going to be. Comes with everything you need except for the fuel (of course). All the displays and connections in same side makes it easier to operate.

Works well

I purchased this item as a home back up generator. I have an interlock installed on my panel. It runs everything in the house except the 240v items, which is fine because I knew this before purchasing. I am able to run two refrigerators/freezers, the microwave, electronics, and the lights with no issues.

Great Product

Really happy with this generator. It's super quiet, comes with tool kit, oil funnel, everything but the fuel. It starts right up and the remote works well for start and stop when you're not right beside the unit. I really like the propane as a backup.
