More than a light weight Generator

The feature of dual fuel is highly desirable and the other panel controls are exceptional. At 4500 peak watts, this is a pretty hefty portable generator. Because it is a invertor type it will not harm any of my home appliance electronics if used during a power outage. And it has plenty of power for power tool use at a remote job-site.

Great Generator for Camping

I bought this generator 3 months ago and use it while camping. I have solely ran the system on propane. It has worked great for running the A/C. I did found that I had to watch which other electronics were running at the same time so I didn't trip the generator (I had to force my 2 way refrigerator use only propane otherwise the refrigerator and A/C could not run on the generator). The weight of the generator is pretty heavy to get it in the back of the truck by myself, but it is easy with a second person. The wheels and handle are a life saver.

Duel fuel i Gen

I bought this in September 2022. I open ended the box and was so surprised that the generator includes a connection for propane. I was so glad it does. Also the instructions are easy to follow. I've not started it yet but so far it seems like everything I need is here.

Freedom to camp anywhere!

The generator just arrived in perfect condition out of the box. I intend to use it for a weekend trip in a couple of weeks. I have an open frame generator which is really loud and not an inverter generator. This generator will be significantly quieter and provide cleaner power to my trailer. I also like the remote start feature so I can turn it on from inside the trailer if I need a quick boost of power in the morning.

Igen 4500df

Bought this today and ran it for four hours to break it in. It ran flawlessly and worked in the economy mode with no issues that were mentioned in the reviews I've read. This is a nice size to run everything in my house except for the dryer and electric stove.

Love Remote Start & Running On Propane

I bought the IGEN4500DF for RV boondocking and home backup power. Love the remote start when in the RV and I can connect it to my remote propane port at the rear of my trailer. It's very quiet near idle and fairly quiet even when running at full bore. This is only only generator I could find with propane, auto-choke and remote start. Very happy with the purchase!

Great Little Unit

Love the package, and quiet operation. We use as power for our 33 ft fifth wheel. Plenty of power for a/c and other demands. Have not used it in full anger yet, but expect great things. I would recommend this for solid 30 amp service. Dual fuel is a bonus.

Great Generator

I am thrilled to share my positive experience with the Westinghouse iGen4500DF Dual Fuel Generator. As someone who values reliability, performance, and versatility, this generator has truly exceeded my expectations on all fronts. From the moment I unpacked the iGen4500DF, its build quality and attention to detail were evident. The sturdy construction and thoughtful design elements instilled confidence that this generator was designed to last. But it's the performance that truly sets this generator apart. The dual fuel capability is an absolute game-changer. Being able to switch between gasoline and propane as fuel sources offers incredible flexibility. Whether dealing with a power outage, camping trip, or any situation where electricity is needed, having this choice ensures peace of mind. The transition between fuels is seamless, and the generator runs smoothly on both options.

Exceeds Expectations

I recently purchased my own Westinghouse generator after seeing a friend's while tailgating. I bought the dual fuel model to avoid packing gasoline to every tailgate. This thing started up first try. I loved the fact that it came with oil and all so you could guarantee it had the right amount. No priming, no wait, just hit the button and go. The remote start is a cool feature, although not sure when you'd ever need it. Nice work Westinghouse!

Unbeatable machine

I shopped a long time and finally decided to buy this unit for our new 33' travel trailer. No other generator in the 3500-4500w class had the amount of features that the iGen4500DF had. Dual-fuel capable, remote start, pull start, and electric start, quality gauge readout with meaningful info, integrated battery charger, the ability to run fuel out of the carb during shutdown, <100lbs, easy to manuever, 59db noise levels, and long runtimes. This thing checked all the boxes, where none of the other generators could. Nice work Westinghouse.
