The Perfect Gift for My 40th Anniversary

I have been wanting one of these dual fuel generators for quite some time since here in Texas we have a lot of weather related power outages. My wife must have heard me because one showed up with a big red bow on it and a card saying Happy Anniversary! I think I will keep her for another 40 years. :-)

Great Little Backup Power

I ordered it and it was shipped in 2 days turnaround, I'm very excited to have purchased this dual fuel because my 10K is gas powered in the event we need to relocate we can load this unit and some propane and oil, and we're set you can get any better. We looked at others but this one won hands down and the pullout handle was the icing to moving the unit around without it hitting your heels, the remote and service tools was a bonus I just put the supplied oil in connected the propane line opened and checked for leaks and started it up, manual, remote and push start switch unit started up with no problem. "Great job Westinghouse" a solid name I can remember coming up in the 60s, you haven't lost your touch in providing a product that performs well, have the right power and weight for it size and lastly performance and price of this unit

Runs Great Everything Works

Tested for 2 hours under various loads and everything works great. The dual fuel mode works great and it comes with the supplies needed. Eco mode is really nice although you cannot tell a difference once you hit about a 50% load. When Eco mode is ramping down there will be about 5 seconds of erratic running before the throttle settles down. Most things seem easily accessible for service although the fuel filter looks difficult to reach without removing more than the standard service panel. The provided oil funnel is nice because it screws into the filler hole. Rating 4 stars because it does take more than a few pulls to start. Took me about 5 pulls and that was after already warmed up from running 1hr before. Maybe it will start easier after complete break-in. I plan to replace the spark plug with NGK to see if that helps. Ready for a real test as we approach hurricane season!

So quiet and efficient and effective

We at resisted for years getting a generator but with the recent devastation here in Western NC we decided it was time. If we had know we could have gotten an inverter generator this nice at this price point we would have pulled the trigger long ago. It's crazy how quiet the generator is and just how many of our appliances and lamps we can run. Great buy. We look forward to using this with our camper as well.

Very satisfied!

I bought this generator to run my camper while hunting off grid. It ran the entire camper. During the trip we had days that required running the ac. This generator ran flawlessly and is very quiet and fuel efficient for the power it produces. The remote start is something I didn’t think I needed but I’m really glad to have it now.

They don’t mess around

I had an issue with my gen after about 20 hours into a two week boondocking trip so I called the number on the side of the unit. I had registered my igen4500df so the process was seamless. They sent me a new unit within 4 days ! Westinghouse gens are the best I’ve ever owned!

So Far, So Good

The generator seems to work as advertised. I started with propane and haven’t filled the gas tank yet. I may just stick with the propane. I had read a lot of reviews and sometimes it showed up with the automatic clutch disconnected. That doesn’t seem to be the case with mine as it settled down very quickly. I really like the remote start.

Feachers of Inverter Generator are very good.

I am very impresssed with this product. It arrived on time. It is light weight, started the first time on gasoline and propane. All Batteries were charged and the remote worked great. It ran my AC, refrigerator, water heater, and fans in my camper with no problems.
