High quality generator

I mainly bought this in case of power outage, which we haven't had yet. But it did come in handy when I bought a jukebox out of a storage unit. I also plan to use it for dry camping when we eventually get a trailer. I chose this particular model for the dual-fuel option, and the inverter efficiency. Have yet to test it hard, but pleased with the purchase so far.

Great Features; Great Price!

I'm glad I bought this generator. It's it good value and great quality. I was originally looking at a Honda but this generator has over twice the power, accepts propane, and is still pretty quiet. Seems to be decent quality so far. Runs both my fridges and coffee maker at 25% capacity. Should work great for what I need!

Excellent Product packed with features

Researched many inverter generators. For this class of generators it has every feature you would need. Runs very quiet. Dual fuel feature is so convenient. Remote start great convenience. Generators are relatively heavy. Wheels and handle make this so easy to move around. You can not go wrong with this generator.

Great price and quick delivery

I just received my new generator. It was an amazing price and arrived quickly. I just moved to Florida and desperately needed a quiet, dependable generator that didn't break the bank. So far so good. I'll try to post more feedback after my first use but I'm impressed so far.

IGen4500DF

I received this generator two days ago, and upon taking it out of the box I inspected it and found it to be in very good condition. Following the instructions to the letter, I tried to start it on gasoline and it would not start. I hooked up a propane tank and it fired-up immediately. I kept trying to start it in the gas mode but it would not start. Finally, I ran it for a couple minutes on propane and then switched the fuel knob to gasoline and it continued to run on gasoline. subsequent tests with start and stop have been fine. I let it cool for approximately three hours and started it on gasoline mode. It started right away and seems to be fine. It is the quietest generator of this size that I have ever seen/heard. It is also very easy to use.

No notable issues - careful with initial oil fill.

Followed instructions and fired up just fine with electric start on propane fuel - ran for an hour to break in. Only issue was entire container of oil ended up exceeding capacity. Did seem to be a small amount of oil in there from factory so may need just less than the 0.6L capacity when initially filling.

Love the remote control

The remote control allows us to shut off the generator from inside our camper, which is a great feature. The generator starts quickly on gasoline, but I haven't been able to get it to cross over to propane yet. Not sure if the issue is the regulator, or operator error since this model is new to me. I'll figure it out and update the review in a couple weeks.

Better than I hoped for

This generator has greatly exceeded my expectations. It's relatively quiet and provides ample power for our camper. With the ac unit running along with the refrigerator, the generator only shows 50%load and handles it without hesitation. Would definitely recommend this to anyone!

Very Quiet & Compact

Just bought this generator today and overall it seems very quiet and a reasonable size. Pull out handle makes it easy to move around. Setup was simple. Only issue is that it does not have a gas shutoff so you cannot drain the carb dry while running and it only comes with 1 set of remote keys

Remote Start, Power Guage andn Auto Choke sold it

I absolutely love that I can shut the generator down in teh middle of the night when I don't need so much A/c, after we're mostly sleep. This saves fuel and controls noise, although the iGen4500DF is surprisingly quiet. On my first use, I thought the sound of my Generator on Eco idle was the distant sound of another guys Generator about 75 ft from me. I could NOT at all place teh sound as coming from my IGen4500DF, sitting under a window about 5ft away. Love the power output reading, which is educational about my loads. Love this thing already and can't wait to enjoy its features and performance for years to come.
