LOVE IT !

Just received this item 2 days ago, power went out last night due to ice storm. It’s running both refrigerators, lights, TV and other stuff . It’s not so loud you can’t hear your self think. NOTE, it does have some sound do it . But not over powering. But overall, it’s seems well built . And working great

Very simple

I just took delivery of my new Westinghouse igen4500DF. Very simple to prepare for operation! Extremely quiet when running. Starts with key fob, push button, and pulling the starter rope is very easy. I looked for days to find what I wanted, and this was worth the wait! I love the Duel Fuel feature! Propane is so much cheaper than gas. We got this for our new camper and can't wait to hit the road!Thanks Westinghouse!!!

Love the propane and the power output

I purchased this generator because the specifications said it could handle over 30 AMPs running on gasoline or propane. When our family travels towing our Airstream (30 AMPs) we like to keep the generator in the tow vehicle. It's great that it doesn't smell of gasoline. I also wanted to use this generator as a backup solution with a transfer switch on our house. There is a meter on the front of the generator showing the load and the kilowatts being used. I was able to power two refrigerators, a freezer, lights, and some computers all running together. I added enough items to push it over 30 AMPs and it handled it well. It's quiet and I like the weight. The generator weighs about 100 lbs but it is manageable with two people. The two metal bars on the top help when lifting. The extending bottom handle is great for moving it around when it's on the ground. Nice product.

Will Be Great

After initial problem of the automatic choke unplugged it did all it could. My son unscrewed all sides, connected the wiring, watched as the choke worked and it ran fine. We did the long term fix as Westinghouse suggested and then some, completely removing the side not wishing to break it.

Very mobile with great features

I brought generator right home and couldn’t wait to get it running. Just select your fuel and start it up. Runs nice and quiet. Plenty of AC power. Easy to move around with attached handle. Plus, you can’t beat the remote start/stop. Especially when it’s raining.

Has it all

I am so happy with this generator. It has all the features that I wanted, runs very quiet on both gasoline and propane, has the longest run time of all the generators that I looked at. Added oil and gas and it started right up with the electric start. It has no problem running my 30 amp RV.

Excellent Generator

Only generator in its class, dual fuel and remote start! One some of the complains other have had, my plug was installed correctly and I did not have any issues with choke not working. Shipping was quick. Over all I am very happy, have about 40 hours on the unit so so far with no issues. I use propane only, the generator does lope a little when pulling low watts but I am starting to think it’s the propane tank because it does not always happen. Unit is also very quite and the power flow is very stable. I have a gauge in the camper and with old gen it use to bounce around with this one it holds steady. Time will tell for reliability.

Feature Rich Generator

This generator starts easily and runs very quietly. So far it has not been heavily loaded and is being broken in gradually. Fuel is very important to be fresh and clean. Control and info panel provides a wealth of operating data. Overall a good machine.

Great Inverter

I bought this for camping and stand alone power for rv. This inverter powers everything and has not missed a beat. I have even used it to power lights and small apliances through dissconect in main hoise when power outages occur. Would definatly reccomend and would most definately purchase another Westinghouse genset again

iGEN5000DFc

Bought in late Nov 2024. Started up on Propane and it worked well. As advertised it is low noise (sat close to it about 2 to 3 ft and had a normal voice conversation). Did not start with pull cord, but in fairness, have not had time to fully read manual or run it enough to test all the plugs. I did test 120Vac plugs with small Sears tire inflator and high speed blower and it ran fine (recognize this is small load test). Unit got slightly louder as load was applied but not more than 2 to 5 db. It is compact and easy to move around but smallish wheels so moving over grass and soft surfaces maybe a challenge. Easy to move on hard surface with a sturdy pull out handle. Probably need two average people to pick it up reasonably (one football big guy could do it). Could easily get a cart to move it as well. I gave it a 4 star review as i have not had enough time to test it fully. Will come back and try to modify rating as i gain experience. dean*
