The generator seems like a fine product. The main issues I have had have been out-of-date (apparently) documentation. The user manual, in the section about transporting the unit, refers to controls which are not on the console. The user manual also states the wrong part numbers for the gas and propane high-altitude kits. We're at 5500 feet, so the high altitude jets are required to be installed for the warranty. I found the correct ones (I assume) on the Westinghouse parts website. (I sent some questions to Westinghouse trying to confirm this but never received a reply to this day, even after pinging them again.) The only documentation for installing a propane high-altitude kit that I could find was for an open-frame generator, but it was fairly straightforward to adapt for this one. The blog (and pdf) that documents how to do install the high-altitude kit for gas is unclear from the photos on how to disconnect the wiring for the carburetor in order to remove it - there is one wire that goes from a box on top of the carburetor, over the top of things and through a metal twist that holds some wiring together, and down the right side into the bottom, with no connection plug in sight or that can be felt, but it is too taut to remove the carburetor as-is. I finally was able to remove the carburetor without disconnecting this wire, by releasing the twist, which gave me some slack to slide the carburetor off the posts and feed it through to the front of the unit to continue the jet replacement process. (I took copious, high-res photos throughout this process to use as my own reference, so Westinghouse, if you want them to update your documentation, contact me.) I'm not a mechanic but I was able to do this in about 6 hours. After completing the jets replacements, I filled it with oil and put in some gas. It is very difficult to see whether the oil is full or not - it has a completely horizontal opening, which drips oil if you get too much in, but is pretty hard (impossible, actually) to tell that it is getting to that point. The supplied funnel actually screws into this horizontal hole for filling. The instructions say to pour the entire provided bottle of oil into the generator, but also says not to overfill. Well, it was overfull, and I went through several paper towels trying to catch all the runoff. It would be better if the opening for adding/checking oil was at a bit of an upward angle, and straight towards the outside, so you could look in (say, down through the funnel?) I then tested it in eco-mode with a hair dryer on two settings, with gas and propane, using the remote control and then the push button, and that worked correctly. Finally I tried to use the pull-cord. It backfired on my first attempt and then I was unable to get it to start. This may be because the engine is too big for me to get it to turn over (I am a 59-year old female, fairly fit but maybe not strong enough.) It still started ok afterwards with the remote. As far as loudness goes, some say it is very quiet. I do not have other generators to compare this to. I walked around to the front of my house while it was running and I definitely could still hear it - it sounded like a distant lawnmower running. I'll have to say, this generator may come in handy some day, but I hope it doesn't!

After 3 times trying to purchase a similar generator from another manufacturer for our brand new Alliance RV Fifth Wheel I happened upon this one. What a great decision that was! This iGen4500DF generator was exactly what we were looking for. It started right up on propane after I added oil and hooked up the battery. Love the remote start. Will come in handy on cold mornings when out boondocking in the Fall/Winter. To me, it's no louder than an average lawnmower. Thanks for a product that I foresee being a worthwhile and perfect accompaniment to our RV.

I just received this generator two days ago, but my initial impression is good. I added oil, plugged battery in, hooked up propane, and fired it up. It ran smooth and quiet. I plugged in a 1500w electric heater and it handled it no problem. So far I'm happy with my purchase.

I bought this for my food trailer because traditional generators give me a headache, they are way too loud. This is the quietest that I have ran across, I really love it, so much so we are selling our large, loud generator to purchase another to chain together for our house needs.

We lose power frequently. Having a big generator that makes a lot of racket I wanted something that was smaller and quieter to run overnight. This generator fits our needs perfect to power 2 sump pumps, 2 refrigerators 1 freezer and some lights. Can't beat this generator for the price.

I was a little worried when package arrived the box was ripped open on the side, bottom had no tape & top tape had come lose, only thing keeping it together was one nylon band the other must have broken off. Luckily generator was fine & looked great. I checked it out, read manual & got it ready for operation, didn't gas or start it I got it for power-outages & didn't want to put gas in just to run it & have to drain tank & carb again to store it. I'm counting on Westinghouse quality name & quality control for it to be ready when I need it but I might use it before then.

I purchased this as backup power for the essentials in my home like our side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, deep freezer in garage, 10k BTU portable a/c and other misc. items. Worked like a champ and only used about 20-35% of the max load during the 3.5 hours of original use. Highly recommend!

Bought the generator to power essential appliances during outages and also use for camping / RVing. It has everything I was looking for. It starts easily and is fairly quiet for a generator. I do wish it came with a cheat sheet on the different types of 30amp plugs, but that was an easy internet search.

Set everything and fired it up and it runs great. Still have to load test under heavy loads. One small problem is the battery terminal came with battery acid, I'll be contacting the manufacturer for a replacement. Will update once I have more information.

I bought this generator because of its dual fuel capability. It was delivered on time and generator has no damage. I hooked up a 20 pound propane take to the unit and hit the start button. It started right up. It runs my camper A/C unit and 2 500 watt flood lights. The gauge on the generator states it is only running at 50% of its capacity. Very happy so far.
