Reliable and efficient

I've used for at least 30 hours across 2 years now. This produce does exactly what it should. The spill tray on top is useful as fuel spills have occurred. The pull handle is really intuitive. Auto-start push button has been used every time, while the remote worked once as a test. Never had to use pull rope.

nice unit for real life use, home & RV

waited many months for this restock! features were worth our wait. use for RV (30A). also for home outages. Big enough powerwise to handle what's needed. Small enough to store/manage moving around. Well thought out, don't have to buy two generators now. Remember to plug in battery when arrives prior to starting, oops...started immediately after I did that.

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!

Dependable workhorse with convenience

We purchased this generator for racing and our camper and it has been a game changer. It is extremely my convenient with the remote start, it is super quiet, the fuel tank is surprisingly large and we only had to fill it every 12 hours running it nearly maxed out, and if we ran out of gas it is a relief knowing we don't have to run to the gas station as we can use the lp tank for the camper/grill/ etc. Couldn't be happier with this purchase!

So Far So Good

I just received the iGen4500DF. It looks good, started right up, runs like it should, very quiet as advertised, and produces electricity. Absolutely no complaints other than it kind of sputters on start up more than I would expect. So far completely satisfied. I would give it 5 stars in a follow up review six or so months down the road and it continues to do what it is intended to do.

works well and quiet compared to regular generator

We bought this generator to power our rv when we don't have electric hook up available. We haven't used it for a prolonged period of time yet, but for what time we have used it we have been pleased with it's operation. I would have given it 5 stars if I hadn't had the start up problems I had the first time I tried to operate it. If you purchase this unit make sure you check the screw terminals on the battery, mine were lose, alsoyou may want to plug in the included battery charger and charge the battery overnight before you try to start it, Also if starting on gasoline fill the tank and let it set for awhile before attempt to start it.

Came just in time!

Ordered this to be delivered to my home. After unboxing, filling oil, connecting battery & went with set up for propane fuel. I pressed the start button and it fired up! Good thing. After the break in period we got hit with a hurricane and power was out fir 7 days! This gen was able to handle my 2 refrigerators and 3 fans. Oil changes were kinda tricky with the offset drain plug? But not too bad. Very happy with this purchase and will definitely recommend if your in the market for a quieter & somewhat lighter generator.

Met expectations

I received it today and performed the pre start up. I ran it on propane for a while and had to call my wife outside. It is WAY quieter than our old one. We were talking without raising our voices. I was blown away that it actually came with a remote control that can turn it ON and OFF. But what excites me the most of it all comes from my struggles with my last generator. This generator comes with a hose that is attached to the carburetor, with a small valve, so I can drain the bowl for long storage. Ethanol gas is hard on fuel lines when it's left sitting too long.

Great portable generator

I just purchased th 4000 watt gas/ propane inverter gen to use with my camper. I'm impressed with it's construction and the fact that Westinghouse includes everything you need to use it: oil, propane hose with regulator and generator connection cable for hooking up 2 gens. It also came with wheels installed and pull handle. Most other gens you buy you have to pay separately for all these extras. I really well built unit

Brand New

This generator started right up on the first try and it is quite as advertised. I purchased this item to use during power outages. It has all the power I need to run the important items in the house. I haven't had to use it during a black out to date, but this will give me peace of mind when the power goes off.
