Just what I needed!

I have always felt the need to have an emergency generator so I recently checked into reviews for the top brands. The Westinghouse brand consistently came in as a top seller with high praise from consumers. I decided on a Dual Fuel Inverter generator and was very happy with my decision. Having never owned one before I was worried that it would be complicated to operate but couldn’t have been more wrong! The generator performed very well and was very quiet. I loved the option of being able to use gas or propane. Westinghouse has been around forever so I knew that they were a brand to be trusted. We have had our electricity turned off for fairly extended periods for service on a number of occasions but now I don’t have to worry about not being able to keep our refrigerator running and other appliances that we might need in the event of power outages. I am so per happy with my purchase and the peace of mind that it provides. I would highly recommend! Thank you!

So far so good

Only just purchased the gen but it’s pretty impressive so far. Wasn’t sure on the quality of oil provided with it so I decided to put in Amsoil 10W-30 to ensure it had high quality lubricant. Past reviews indicated problems with the automatic choke and the issue is usually that the control wire is unplugged from the control board. Took covers off to check that the auto choke wire was connected to the control board and it was so good to go there. Connected the battery and hit the start button. It fired right up in about 2 seconds as if it had just been running. Was pretty impressed. Tested the remote start and again it fired right up instantly. Very quiet for this amount of power so I am very happy. Now just hope it proves to be durable and reliable for years to come.

So Far... Perfect

I originally purchased another brand and returned it due to price and lack of features. This generator is a well engineered product with only one issue that I ran into. The auto choke did not work initially, but was resolved using the posted bulletin.

Great Generator

I am thrilled to share my positive experience with the Westinghouse iGen4500DF Dual Fuel Generator. As someone who values reliability, performance, and versatility, this generator has truly exceeded my expectations on all fronts. From the moment I unpacked the iGen4500DF, its build quality and attention to detail were evident. The sturdy construction and thoughtful design elements instilled confidence that this generator was designed to last. But it's the performance that truly sets this generator apart. The dual fuel capability is an absolute game-changer. Being able to switch between gasoline and propane as fuel sources offers incredible flexibility. Whether dealing with a power outage, camping trip, or any situation where electricity is needed, having this choice ensures peace of mind. The transition between fuels is seamless, and the generator runs smoothly on both options.

Dual Fuel is my best option. Size/Noise best.

This generator has clean power and will run all my necessities during a black out. My 5 saltwater reef tanks, TV, Internet, lights and refrigerator are all able to run with this generator. It's size is smaller than I expected and the noise level is much lower than most gas generators. Set up was very easy and the electronic start remote was perfect to start the generator from inside the house. The dual fuel allows me to keep propane on hand then fill gas cans when the power goes out.

Super easy to use! So many options!

This generator is awesome! Ease of use and choice of fuel or propane if sources are unavailable. Hookups and plug ins are user friendly and easily accessible. Its not so big and bulky and fits right where we need it to be to get it up in a hurry! Great product , great price!

Quiet

This generator is as quiet as my smaller 2200 inverter generator. Started right up with auto start or remote. The fuel gauge and remaining run time meter did not work properly on first start with less than gallon of fuel. When I filled it to half tank the guages worked fine.

Great looking machine.

Bought this unit after my 2 Firman generators died. Saw it was highly rated so picked it up on sale. Solid build quality. Love the fact that it’s a 3.4 gallon tank too. Can keep the A/c or heater running all night long in our trailer. Looking to take it out soon to test it out

Great fit and finish, quiet and powerful

I bought this for our 35’ Montana and I couldn’t ask for more. Dual fuel runs off propane so I don’t have to have something with gas in my front storage compartment. Starts right up and carries the load of the entire coach with one a/c running (residential fridge). I would buy this again. Outstanding!

So far so good

The generator arrived in excellent condition. No dents scratches or any other blemishes noticed. I followed the easy to read & understand instructions, then push the start button and it fired up immediately. Ran it for 45 minutes no problems. I am very happy with the fit and finish of the generator. So far so good.
