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.

Easy to start and run!

I bought this last month. I have never owned or ran a generator before. Did a test run with propane. The instructions for setup and running are easy to follow. Propane attaches quickly. Oil is easy to add without spilling. Started right up with push button start. Plugged in fridge/freezer, hair dryer, fan and charged phone and tablet just to see how did. No problems and I'm feeling better about future power outages.

Great generator at a decent price

The generator works fine at high elevation. The manual is questionable because of major mistakes. Such manual should be reviewed by a professional and corrected as necessary. We give only 4 stars because the battery was tumbling around in the compartment as a result of a defective battery holding strap.

The Most Feature Rich Generator On The Market!!!

I just received and unboxed this feature packed generator! Seamlessly switches from propane to gas and vice versa without having to shut off. It runs my RV's 14.6k air-conditioner and the microwave at the same time with watts to spare both on propane and gas. Electric start and remote work flawlessly. Much quieter than running two Ryobi units in parallel to be able to run the air-conditioner. In fact, I think it's quieter than even just one of the Ryobi units. It is heavier and larger than I expected but the luggage handle is well built and it easily rolls through the grass and rough terrain. The only feature that is missing is bluetooth, but the lower noise, remote control, easily visible display, dual fuel, excellent run time, etc more than make up for that. This is the closest to a perfect generator that you can get for your RV.

Looks good so far

Just unpacked my 4500DF. Packaging was great and despite the shipping company's best efforts, it arrived unscathed. Upon initial inspection, I'm glad I purchased this unit. The accessory kit is superb. Save the oil container to refill for your next oil change. I'm hoping this generator serves me for many years but time will tell.

So far, so good

I just bought this, so my review is limited to first impressions. I read the manual, unboxed it, added oil, connected the battery, connected the propane, and it started right up. It is reasonably quiet. I appreciate the features and the info provided by the lcd screen. I'm looking forward to the next power outage, which in SE Texas could happen any day now.

Awesome generator

This is an amazing generator. It works great, it's has so many options too! The duel fuel is so handy when the whole town is out of power and you can't get gas. I would recommend it to anyone looking to purchase a generator! Would buy again and again!

Works like it should. Easy to start. Easy to handl

I originally purchased another Westinghouse generator that was virtually impossible for me to start by hand. The pull-cord stroke was something like 7 feet! This push-button start is everything it's supposed to be. Starts super easy, runs quiet. BTW, the 30 amp connection is kind of an oddball. Not sure why they chose that particular design for the extension cord. But if you keep looking you'll find the cord that you need.

Propane or Gasoline

My wife and I did a lot of research and found this generator is the one for us. It was delivered today via UPS. Took about 15 minutes from box to starting. Love the 3 starting options and is very quite. Also like the fact we can run on gas or propane. Will be taking camping next week.

Easy Setup and Quiet

Fuel, Oil and connect the battery. Fired up on 2nd pull. Checked remote start and push button, both started it up immediately. Quick load test from my spare fridge and everything is looking and sounding great. No real run time to speak of just yet that's the only reason for 4 out 5 stars. Recommend keeping the oil container for future service.
