Runs great!

Bought this DF inverter recently. After performing the set up it runs great and quiet compared to others. Love the remote start and the energy savings mode! Also relatively light weight to take camping and can also connect two in parallel to power larger loads.

Great little generator!

Bought this as an addition to an open frame Westinghouse generator that I have as well. We wanted something that was a little quieter to use during power outages and this fits the bill! Haven't had a chance to use it in an actual outage yet, but it seems to run fine, and I believe it will do everything that I need it to. Happy so far!

So far so good

The generator arrived in excellent condition. No dents scratches or any other blemishes noticed. I followed the easy to read & understand instructions, then push the start button and it fired up immediately. Ran it for 45 minutes no problems. I am very happy with the fit and finish of the generator. So far so good.

Remote start/stop a must

I was pleased to see that the generator came with a remote start. I had to request another FOB because the one that came with the generator would only start it, it would not turn it off. It is not as powerful as I had hoped, but I believe it will work.

iGen4500DF - Great Product - So Far So Good

Just received my iGen 4500DF a couple of weeks ago. So far, so good. Started first try. Quiet, everything appears to work well, with just two minor exceptions: First oil change a bit difficult, as extension tube threaded out instead of end plug. Second concern eco switch not clearly marked on panel like in picture, just an O and a dash, so wasn't sure if the O ment on or off.

My First Inverter Generator

This genset fits under the hard cover on my pickup. It takes 2 men to lift it out, or one guy can do it with a ramp as it's over 120# with gas. It's quiet on "eco", and slightly louder on full. I can easily start it on "eco" with push button and remote. I have not tried to start it with the rope as yet. I bought a 12' LP gas extension hose that I hooked up to one of my RVs 30# bottles, and it fired up just fine on eco after an extra second of cranking to fill the hose. Then I plugged in the 30A RV cord and also a common/ground bonding plug in one of the 20A rec. (required to keep my RVs surge protector system happy). I fired up the a/c w/ an eye on the trailers voltage. It was 125V w/ no a/c, and didn't drop below 120V during the 15kBtu a/c startup (the a/c has a soft start). I know it'll run the microwave at the same time, which are my 2 biggest 120AC loads. The next higher loads are the coffee maker and toaster, but I'm not gonna load test the gen. as its been done tons of times on YouTube.

Problems right out of the box

Shipping delayed, ordered generator 9/8/2021 & didn't receive it until 9/18/2021. Opened the box on 9/20/2021 and right out of the box, the regulator did not work. Registering the generator before we even cranked it so that we can get support for the regulator. It is a very impressive looking generator with really nice features. We just hope the generator runs once we get a new regulator.

Great features, easy start

I finally got the generator I needed for RV life and emergency home use! It started up first time out of the box, the generator came complete with tools and the remote start, the instructions were spot-on.... so far I have no complaints, only praise! I'm looking forward to putting it through its paces and keeping my RV cool on those warm summer days. Oh yeah, and it is very quiet... as advertised!
