Fill with oil, fill with gas and go!

Went threw a couple generators before finding this beauty for my 30 ft airstream with two air conditioners. Easy to setup and get going. Paired it with 2 micro air easy starts and it easily runs both air conditioners. Love the digital display so that I can easily look at the generator to see remaining fuel and current load.

Awesome Powerhouse

This was a awesome gift that fills the need of the many power outages that we've experienced recently. So many features and ease of use. Remote start and fast starting is very impressive. The pure sine wave, clean 4500 watts of power gets the job done keeping our important appliances running in an emergency. This Powerhouse WORKS! Super quiet is a huge plus along with the eco running. Hats off to Westinghouse for building a strong dependable unit!

Just what I was looking for

Needed an inverter with hugher capacity and low noise, since my neighbors are very close. Very happy with this one - started right up first time and easy to add oil and charge battery. Noise level was at conversation level, and powers all the loads I need in a storm or loss of home power. Great purchase and best of breed.

Compact size

I purchased a smaller size due to storage issues and this model fits the bill. Folding handle and rear wheels makes moving it around fairly easy. Duel fuel is a nice option since storing propane is easier for me than gas. Haven't had to use it under a load yet, so hoping that will work out well

FIRST START UP REVEW

THIS IS A FIRST START UP REVEW. EVERTHING WAS IN THE PACKAGE, NO DAMAGE TO THE PACKAGE, EASY INSTRUCTIONS, ADDED SUPPLIED OIL, ADDED GAS, READ THE QUICK START, ROLLED OUTSIDE AND BINGO! STARTED RIGHT UP. I CHECKED THE FUNCTIONS INCLUDING REMOTE START. EVERTHING IS FUNCTIONING WELL. HAVE NOT YET CHECKED THE LOAD FUNCTIONS. I LIKE THE CARRY-ON HANDLE EVEN IF IT WON'T FIT IN THE OVERHEAD STORAGE :) .

Tons of Power in a Relatively Small Package!

I used it for the first time this past week at a dry campsite in NY State. It worked flawlessly except I left the battery power switch on and it drained the battery. I'm a little annoyed that the recommended solution to fixing that problem is to plug it in to 110v AC power. Kinda hard to do that when you don't have power. I got a good chuckle out of that. It would be nice if there was some kind of audible alarm that lets you know the switch is still on after the generator has been turned off to avoid this exact situation.

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!

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?

Very Quiet

Bought this as a backup to my gas hog non-inverter generator. Was very surprised with how quiet it is and how easy it is to setup. Added oil and gas, hooked up battery and it fired up almost immediately. Has started very quickly every time since. Hooked to house and verified it will run everything I need except 2 phase stuff for 15-20 hours, compared to old generator that used more gas and only ran 5-6 hours on 5 gallon tank. It's on the high weight side of what you might consider "portable" but I intend to take it camping as well. I wish the electronic display would come on with the switch instead of waiting until it is running. There is information such as amount of fuel that would be nice to read before starting. Other than that, great setup! Would recommend to friends.

Been working great

Glad I bought, nice and quiet. Puts out plenty power for my mobile fishing wagon - AC, water heater, microwave, coffee pot...etc. never needed to worry about what was on - handles with ease. Only thing I don't like is the motor surges/pulses up and down when there isn't much of a load on it. Not a huge deal just annoying that it isn't a steady / smooth running without a load. Have 65 hours on it.
