Great features & well designed

I replaced my 15yr old modified-sine wave generator with this one. It is much quieter, more efficient, and the duel fuel source means less trips to the gas station during extended outages. The auto start is nice to have with the pull start as a backup.

Extremely easy setup & use

Bought this for camping and home use due to storms. Was up and running in 20 minutes using propane. Electric start worked great, did not need to charge battery out of the box. Note, you may see some old reviews commenting on problems filling oil and oil cap. Just use common sense and if you are in the least mechanically inclined there is no issue at all. Very easy.

Works Great!

We bought this a week ago and it works great! Love the remote start and that we can use propane or gas! The expandable handle makes it easy to move it around. There are 2 handles on the the top that make it easier to lift. Fairly quite as far as generators go.

Easy to Operate, Lots of Features

I bought this in case of power outages in south Louisiana. After plugging in the battery, adding the oil (included) and starting it up, it ran with no problems on propane. I am impressed with teh variety of features it has. All of the propane connections are included. It runs pretty quiet. Very happy with the purchase so far.

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.

Small, Quiet, Powerful -- Nice Compact Design

After following the setup instructions, it fired up on the first try. It handled various loads including shop vac (high startup current), heat gun, portable air conditioner. As they all do, it gets noisier with increasing load but still managed a very respectable 73dB 20ft away with a 3 KW load. Volt and Watt meters were accurate. Voltage stability under load was very good. Everything worked as it should. The included oil filler funnel is very nice.

Great power and quiet!

Bought this about 2 weeks ago and so far it has been good to me. I do a lot of travel shows for a ski club and 90% of the locations do not have power. I wanted to give this not so little guy a try. Only thing holding me back from doing 5 stars is the housing seems to be subpar.

Great features

I was looking for maximum power in a dual fuel inverter generator. After a lot of research this is the generator I chose based on features and reviews. I am very pleased with my decision. The igen 4500DF is easy to use and extremely quiet. I recommended this to a friend who has also purchased this generator.

Lots of power & very quiet

We purchased this generator after much research into brands, etc. The Westinghouse received consistently high reviews. I will echo those. The unit delivers the power it is rated for and is extremely quiet. I recommend the IGEN4500DF to anyone looking for a power source within its range of output.

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.
