Great features

Bought as a stand by generator for my house. I especially love the DF option as I will be using it in case of emergency, so I won't have to worry about leaving gas in the tank. Extremely quiet! Started with ease on the first try. Only negative comment I would have is the oil provided is to much. Instructions say to add the whole bottle.. I made the mistake of not checking as I was putting it in and it overflowed.

Great Inverter Generator for my 5th Wheel

I bought this generator in hopes that I could run a single generator to run all the equipment on my 5th Wheel RV. I ordered this and it came in perfect condition. I pulled it out and went through the setup by adding fuel, oil, and a few drops of Lukas Heavy Duty Oil on top of the piston head, hooked up the battery, and with one push of the starter button, it started right up! After going through a proper break-in of the generator I hooked it up to my 5th Wheel RV. I ran my AC, Microwave, TV, Refrigerator, lights, and fans, and this generator did not even blink. I am super happy with my purchase. To top it off it is quiet. I have a honda eu 2000i and my Westinghouse iGen4500 is similar in noise. That is impressive. Heading out to some dispersed dry camping and am thrilled to have this go with me.

Just what we were looking for!

My husband and I purchased this generator to use while camping in areas without hookups. We also wanted something we could use as a backup should our home power go out. We just received it a couple days ago, so have not had opportunity to give it the full test yet. It arrived in beautiful shape and extremely fast! My husband was very pleased with how easy it was to setup. When he pushed the start button, it fired right up. We plugged it into our RV first thing and everything worked that we turned on. Can't wait to hit the hills!!

Great Choice For The Price and Options

Technically bought two of these generators for RVing and emergency situations. For whatever reason this one took more effort to start initially. Was really concerned but then it took off and worked fine after that. Still haven't really put them through their paces but happy so far.

Great All Purpose Genset

I purchased the Westinghouse iGen4500DFc unit after completing a very complete market evaluation. The unit has everything I need for a back up Genset for our home and for dry camping in our trailer. Being able to add a second unit to increase the system overall power output make this ideal for later updates. Very easy to set up and maneuver on hard surfaces. Remote start is very nice and the noise level in operation is within what I consider the acceptable range. Propane consumption has been nominal during our usage.

Just what we needed!!

Bought this to use to run our 30amp RV at a campground for next several weeks, it is fairly quiet and is adequate to turn on everything in the RV, love that it has a remote to it and also runs off propane, we will also be using for our home if we need it during a power outage, very satisfied with this purchase, good price for a well built generator! Great that it has a extendable handle to move it around.

dual fuel quiet and runs long

Happy i bought it, put about 25 hours on it. Runs good, quiet. efficient on gas as well. Loving the purchase. Con no gas stop or shut off in the gas line. Didn't like the oil plug location, but suppose you can just tip it over while using the oil nozzle they include would be worried about metal left in the oil pan with just tipping.

Best Bang for you Buck!

Packaged perfect for those rough deliveries and couldn't wait to open it. Followed the directions and connected it to my 25 lb. propane cylinder. Once the air purged from the line it fired right up and my concern was running my 15,000 BTU air conditioner on my RV. Until I get to my Trailer, I ran this unit with an equivalent portable AC unit and it did not disappoint. This unit is built to last and the remote start is extremely convenient.

Better than Honda

I've owned a honda for a few years and decided to buy a Westinghouse. Boy the westinghouse is great. The added funnel is a real convenient as well as the oil was supplied. It is a must have for all rv users. I will check in again to review after a year of use.

Better than the Champion it replaces

Just received a couple days ago. Delivery via FedEx Ground was a bit clunky as it was four straight days that the FedEx website stated delivery was coming. Once I got the generator and set it up and put it through a trial run, I am glad to have made this purchase. Though slightly heavier the extra power and quieter operation is worth the upgrade from the Champion 3500w inverter we use to take on camping trips.
