Generator is great so far but…

This is a great generator for the $ however we had an issue with filling the oil because the dipstick was obstructed by a screw sticking out in front of it making it extremely difficult to remove and replace. Aside from that we have ran it for only about 2.5 hours so far and it has worked as it should. I like that it has an easy push button start. Overall a good generator.

Very Quiet! Lots of Power!! Not a disappointment!!

I searched researched generators for a while, cause my other was too noisy. I couldn't use if I wanted to have a conversation in camp. I found this one and checked all the reviews, made a decision to find that where ever I looked, it was out of stock. I for one for sale, and I jumped on it. Box was a little damaged in shipping, however the generator comes very well packaged to take a beating in shipping. Everything was included in the box; remote key fob, propane regulator, oil, and 12 mini charger to keep on-board battery charged. It took about 20 minutes to get out of box, add oil, fuel, and connect the battery. Read through the instructions. Yanked 3 times and it fired right up. It has a 30amp RV connection on it, which I connected my RV, cranked on the A/C and used the microwave. PLENTY OF POWER... Played around with it a bit more... efficiency mode … quieted the unit down even more. Great Display. Remote start works well to turn the generator ON or OFF. Would highly recommend the IGen4500.

Everything you need, including a remote starter!

We have been through two fires, 2017 and 2019 in northern California where PGE disconnected the electricity. I have been looking for a dual fuel generator with a remote starter but could not find one. I was very close to purchasing a 3500 watt dual fuel generator from a different company but it did not have a remote starter. Then I stumbled on this one, 1000 watts more, dual fuel and with a remote starter! Love it!!

Nice Features, good performance

Bought this about a month ago to replace/upgrade a previous generator that I'd owned for ~5 years. Things I like most: - Dual Fuel (LP/Gasoline) capability. - Switches easily from LP to gasoline (& vice versa) without having to shut down the generator. - Telescoping Handle - Long run time w/o refueling. Especially handy is being able to switch from LP to gasoline to facilitate swapping out LP tanks w/o having to shut down the generator. - Digital display of power output, runtime hours and fuel level. - Automatic choke - Inverter reset button Improvements: - Replacing the 3/8" flare fitting for LP with a quick-connect fitting - Adding a fuel shutoff switch (gasoline) - Using a hinged cover for the 30A and 20A connections...the soft rubber ones feel flimsy. - Relocate/re-engineer the transport handle to facilitate easier extension/pickup...having the handle so low tends to scrape knuckles ;-)

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!

Great Features

So happy we have a generator to use as an emergency backup for some appliances or to keep the house from bursting pipes. The product is cool that it allows gas and propane and has a telescoping handle to help haul around. The wheel kit makes it very convenient.

Generator

We bought this for our first RV trip and it came just in time. Set up was easy other than filling the oil which was a bit of a pain but not unlike other small engine products that I have. I filled it with gas and connected the propane and it started immediately and switched fuels without skipping a beat. Amazing! it was also as quiet as I had hoped. I plugged the RV in and started turning things on being mindful to not exceed 50% and next thing I knew I had everything on and it never went past 25%. This is a great unit.

Good cost to get remote start

Just got this 4500df, and after the way it was delivered I felt if it was to come out of the box and be in one piece and run I have got a good generator? Well I was happy to see it in one piece put the battery back in the gen. put oil and gas in and one pull was up and running. Time will tell on how long it will last?

SOOOO QUIET!

Bought specifically for the 52db, remote start and dual fuel. Much quieter than expected! We can stand next to it and have a normal conversation. Remote start and stop is fantastic for use with our 32’ 5th wheel. Runs the 13,500 AC and refrigerator easily on propane. Awesome generator.
