iGen5000FDc Generator is Impressive

I purchased an iGEN5000DFc generator in July ’24 and it has exceeded all my expectations. This inverter generator is amazingly quiet, powerful, and very fuel efficient. I especially like the electric start, LED status display, quality, and relatively small machine footprint without sacrificing generous amperage. I currently use the generator during power outages which typically run for several days at a time (happens quite often here in the Gulf Coast) to run two refrigerators, a large freezer, floor fans, TV/computers, and various lights; and there is still amperage to spare to run a large portable AC unit, clothes washer and dryer. Even though it is a dual-fuel, I have only been using LP so far. I highly recommend this generator.

Perfect Power

This generator has been perfect. Started up without issue right out of the box, after adding the oil. The amount of noise produced is great. Quiet enough that you forget it is even running. Using this to provide power for my 35 foot fifth wheel camper and also serves as a backup for the house!

iGen5000DFC

I just bought this Inverter Generator for possible emergencies. I was looking for at least a 5000 peak watts and a generator that adjusts to different loads (saving gas) and was portable. Have not had a chance to use it yet, but I bought it based on other's recommendations. Will review after I use it.

Nice Inverter

Added oil, hooked up battery. Decided to use propane to fuel it - seems to work fine although have not really tested it much yet. All the features seem to work as advertised. Definitely a two person lift at nearly 100 lb. The attached wheels and handle work fine, but it's not meant for rugged terrain. Gave it a 4 star rating as I need to use it more to see how it holds up. Have not used it with gasoline.

Powerful and quiet

I bought this inverter to power my refrigerator and some lighting during power outages. The generator is super quiet, easy to operate and has more than enough power for what I initially wanted to run. I plan to add a few more circuits to my transfer switch given the generator’s capacity. Highly recommend.

Very nice generator, love the remote start

I have recently purchased a Westinghouse iGen 5000. It was delayed a couple times in shipping by Fedex, but still came in about a week. Unpacked it, put oil in, connected propane started on second pull. Put gas in, again started in a couple pulls, electric start worked also, no problems. It handles our 30 amp rv very well. Noise-wise, with a 15000 btu air on it is less than half as loud as our push lawnmower, standing right beside the generator, the neighbor's push mower across the street was very easily heard over the generator. Overall, I like this product and would recommend it to anyone interested in this size generator. Only feature that might be nice is a manual fuel gauge, to see fuel level before starting it.

Everything we wanted in one generator.

It's sheer joy to wake up in the morning, press a button, generator starts, and the Keurig makes coffee. We wanted 2 things, dual fuel and remote start. This generator has both and is reasonably priced. Our only concern is a slight miss which we think could be due to high altitude.

Westinghouse iGen5000DFc Generator

I just bought this Westinghouse Generator after Hurricane Helene, because I was caught off guard and almost 3 days without electricity, very easy to configure, it is not that heavy, and its functions are easy to understand, I loved starting with the remote control, I also tried starting from the electric button, I highly recommend it, it is an investment that you will not regret.

Remote start

Oil change is difficult. Came with battery on its side. And What good is a remote start if you have to go to generator to plug/unplug what you intend to use. Shipping was extremely fast. The remote start was what sold me on it. But it's useless if I have to get up and plug my heater in.

Awesome generator so far

I just got this today. Added oil, connected battery, hooked it up to propane, and it fired it right up. It's been running now for an hour and I love it. So far I love it. Can't wait to go camping or wait for a power outage I'm ready. It's supper quiet and purrs like a kitten
