I JUST PURCHASED THIS UNIT BECAUSE YOU CAN RUN IT ON LP GAS OR GASOLINE. AFTER INITIAL START UP IN BOTH MODES IT PERFORMED WELL. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE, AND WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANY ONE LOOKING FOR A DUEL FUEL INVERTER GENERATOR, PLUS I FORGOT TO MENTION IT IS VERY QUIET WHEN RUNNING!

When I open the box I discovered the generator was packaged in the box upside down. There is some damage on the plastic housing and The connections on the battery were bent and the battery was flipped upside down inside The battery compartment and I found the plastic cover for the battery compartment laying in the bottom of the bag with some of the foam sound proofing Tore off the cover I was able to fix the connections on the battery and put the cover back on Now that I had the battery hooked up I put oil in it and hooked it up the propane the unit started right up so I put two different loads on it a space heater And a fan Separately. Digital data center Only read 0000 No power output and no voltage and lifetime run hours The propane connection it's not centered so the cover doesn't seal it. Sorry it's not letting me down load pictures.

I bought this unit specifically because of the electric start and propane capability. I've had dual fuel generators in the past that are difficult to start on propane. This one fired right up out of the box and now 5 days later will not start on propane. It does run nice and quiet. Too early to tell if its going to work out.

I have had this generator for almost a month and have used it to run power tools and with my camper. It has plenty of power and is pretty quiet. Only problem I've had is forgetting to turn off the battery and I haven't been able to pull start it when the battery is dead.

I just bought this igen4000dfcv to power my camper and also as a backup for the house. We have a rural property with a massive propane tank so it's great to know this dual fuel generator will run basically indefinitely. It's rated to run as quiet as the smallest inverters. I'm glad I picked this one bc I know it won't have to work to hard to run everything and does it quietly.

My first IGen generator had a recall on the unit and was sent a new generator which did not start on gas. Customer service was very helpful and was able to get me a new one quickly which has been working well. Prior to the recall unit the generator was working well and was used on several camping trips this year. The lighter weight is nice without sacrificing quality. Very easy set-up and I especially like the ability to start the unit with the key fob from the trailer without having to go to the unit when needing to run the microwave for a short period. The unit is quieter than most generators. I picked this unit for the portability and ability to wheel it to a given location and it has not disappointed.

Step 2 in the manual after connecting the battery is add the oil provided. The whole bottle. And what happens? A lot of it runs out of the generator all over my driveway because it didn't need the whole bottle. Then we have a features page in the manual which doesn't come close to matching the location of the features on the generator. And the instructions for paralleling inverter operation fail to state that if the generator has two black inputs (rather than 1 black and 1 red like the cable), then color coding on the cable doesn't matter. One can stumble into that information by going on-line by looking at pictures associated with the cable. The generator started up nicely using propane after pressing the on/off button and again very nicely using the remote. I didn't fire it up with gasoline yet, but when I do the gas will NOT contain any ethanol. I plugged the generator into a 50 amp power inlet box located outside by the main breaker (using the parallel cable and a 30 ft 50 amp generator cable after taking the central air and hot water heater off line and the results were very good. Had several computers and printers running, TV, refrigerator, microwave, a bunch of lights, and use of the garage door. I bought a second IGEN 4500 (gas unit as the DF units are sold within hours of receipt it seems) to use for parallel use with the DF unit. Haven't taken that unit out of box yet. I won't be able to use central air even running two units in parallel, but I will be able to run a wall rattler AC and perhaps use a burner on the stove if I manage other items carefully when a stove burner is on. The generator is very very quiet. The hardware is great; so what's the reason why the manual can't be good?

Relocated to LA 6 years ago & after 2020's very active hurricane season I knew I needed to have a generator on hand this year but needed one I could understand & operate on my own. I liked the idea of having an alternative fuel source I can store too. Push button start is awesome! My gas lasted me a lot longer than others & my generator was by far much quieter than any I've heard. Thumbs up from a female user…& the guy I'm seeing told his dad about mine & they went & bought one after they heard how efficient & easy mine was to run! I'd say that's a 5 star rating since they are old hats at hurricanes. Very pleased! P.S. Don't judge my generator's tent :) I needed to make sure it stayed dry since our power was down for a week!

Bought this so we can go dry camping or when everything goes to crap. Tried it out and it works great. Can't wait to take it camping next year. It will allow me to take the wife to more remote places that don't have full hook ups, yet she will still be comfy and cozy.

I bought this about a month ago and so far both my wife and I are happy we did. I bought this model because of the features and previous reviews, and can say this product lives up to its excellent reputation. Generator is especially user friendly with the electric start feature which has worked flawlessly. This makes it much easier for my wife to use if we lose power when I'm not home as well as being incredibly convenient with the remote control start. Awesome feature. Having dual fuel capability is also one of the main reasons I bought this model. I'm running it off of a 30# tank. Much more preferable to me than keeping gasoline around. I'm ok with losing a few watts of power to be able to run propane. Quality seems to be great and would definitely recommend this model.
