After Hurricane Sally, I decided I needed a larger generator, and the dual-fuel feature on the IGen4500DF was especially attractive. The propane option, even though not quite as powerful as the gas, to me is much more convenient, easier to store, and safer. Easier to have 5 propane tanks around than 5 extremely flammable plastic gas containers. Starts and runs without a hitch, easy to understand controls, everything in the right place, powerful, quiet. What is there not to like??

Unit arrived in great shape. Packaging was excellent. Unpacked, charged battery, performed start-up procedures as outlined in the manual. Connected unit to propane tank via supplied regulator, selected propane as the fuel source, turned the battery on and pressed the start button. The unit started right up. I purchased this unit for both RV use and emergency home use. I have not put it through its paces yet but so far it appears to be doing what it's supposed to.

Bought for a new 5th wheel. Had a 12000 watt Westinghouse for a home back up but it was too big and heavy for the RV. This is a perfect size and power for our 30 foot 5th wheel. The 30 amp outlet and the wattage rating was able to run both ACs simultaneously. Super quiet for camp ground use. Very pleased.

Have had this generator for 60 days, would not start after a few days with the battery switch on, which you must do to start remotely, took to get it serviced, was told the battery isn't charged properly. Called Westinghouse tech and was told battery switch cant be left on. In other words you have to turn off after using, and then go back and turn on before starting!!! How can this be considered remote start!! Very disappointed!

be sure to inspect the carton and take pictures before and during opening the carton. I noted a small tear / hole in the box and also a handle hole....or what I thought was a handle for moving the box. strange was there was only one. Well, as it turns out there's a scrape on the back of the unit which tore some of the power and registration info sticker and the plastic shroud is disconnected where something had gone through the carton then into the side of the generator. In construction I've seen this type of damage and this was caused by a fork lift, the fork of the lift punctured the carton. maybe someone will reach out and agree to replace this this unit with an undamaged one. we'll see. I'm happy with my purcase just difficult to be proud of damaged goods. Thanks

I have owned this generator for coming up on 2 years now and have had zero issues with it. I absolutely love the Dual Fuel capabilities and have found it to be quite useful. I use it for my camper and it allows me to carry around 20lb propane tanks instead of tanks of gas that are always smelly and spill. The handle on the generator makes it move around (although lifting it into the back of the truck at 100lbs can be a challenge). It always starts up right away. I would but this generator over again if it ever quit but I don't see that happening. It's a solid unit.

I BOUGHT THIS INVESTOR IN JUNE AND I HAVE SOME PROBLEMS: 1. When I turn on the generator I have to press the start button twice or three times in both mode (GAS/Propain) to start. 2. When I connect a 12BTU (9.5 Amp) AC UNIT and then try to connect a fridge the inverter turns off, the amp consumption does not reach 18amps and the Overload Light never turn it on. WHAT CAN I DO, WHAT COULD I CHECK? SPARK, CARBURATOR?

Bought this in June, ready for hurricane season. Opened the box in early August ahead of hurricane Debby. Very well put together. Excellent operational instructions and user manual. Everything was supplied (except fuels, obviously), even the tools to do routine maintenance. Pretty darned quiet, easy to start and operate.

After researching and reading many positive reviews we decided to buy this dual fuel generator as back up for power outages. Filled with the oil that is included, do this slowly it will overflow, then attached the propane tank it started right up when the start button was pressed. Very satisfied with this purchase.

I bought this generator to provide emergency backup power. It's fairly compact and quiet, yet appears to be well built and runs really smoothly. Starts easily via pull cord, electric push button or wireless fob. Setup was easy with the included oil and funnel. Side panel openings provide quick access to the battery and oil fill/drain, although it is a bit tight given it was engineered for a small profile and with sound insulating side panels. I love the dual fuel capability and so far have only run it on propane. While its primary purpose will be backup power, I like that it is portable and quiet and could be used for camping, tailgating, etc.
