RV Inverter

I bought this particular Inverter generator after alot of research, it has the power I need for my 30 amp rv, remote start, dual fuel for versatility and it will fit in the back of my tow vehicle. It will also be used as a back up for our home's refrigerator.

Perfect for our RV

Perfect for our RV. I run our generator on propane, runs quiet. We don't have to worry about our TV, computers or DISH Network receivers. The Generator is light enough that the two of us can load it in our pickup. It fits in front of our fifth wheel perfectly!

Loaded with Features

I've been watching the generator market for about a year and the iGen4500DF clearly has the competition beat from a feature perspective. Propane capability AND remote start sealed the deal for me. The panel has a built in usage gauge so you can keep track of hours between maintenance. The power output receptables have every use coverred, even for powering our travel trailer.

Generator fine the leaking gas not great

I found out today that if you leave the gas valve on that the gas will leak out of the regulator. I purchased this generator for the remote start feature. If you have to go to the tank which is right next to the generator to turn on the gas why do you need a remote start/stop. For this reason I would not recommend this generator.

Great bells and whistles

I bought this because of all the extra features you don’t see on other models of this size and power. Love the fuel level, time remaining and load level that is all found at a quick glance. Packaging was well done as the delivery service was not so gentle with it. Wheels make it easy to move around once you wrangle it from the box with some help.

Very Good Generator

I purchased this unit in September of 2022 and overall the unit is very reliable and well designed. The one feature I would rate poor is related to changing oil. There is virtually no room to work in the access compartment and spillage of oil is guaranteed. Very poor design and I’m amazed that Westinghouse permitted this. I contacted Westinghouse regarding this problem and the person I talked with said she would “let someone know”.

Good so far

Bought this generator after reading many reviews. It has performed great so far but this is based on very limited use. It will be primarily used as emergency power back up for our home. It replaces a very noisy Coleman generator that gave us many years of dependable back up power.

Easy to start and quiet.

Bought to use during power outages, so haven't actually used for a long period. However, the instructions were easy to follow, and it cranked right up and is as quiet as I hoped it would be. Going to put it to a real test before the next power outage.

Well built and great value.

Just picked up our brand new generator for home emergency use and camping. Dual fuel, cant beat that option. Unit appears well built. Manual and instructions are well prepared and put together (from my engineering perspective) Will get the unit a test run this coming weekend. Will share updated review notes and fine tune rating.

Good Size

We bought this a month ago for our toy hauler. It’s a nice size and easy to handle. Our carbon monoxide detector went off in the middle of the night, so we moved it further away from the rear ramp door. Not sure if it helped because we haven’t used it since.
