Exactly what I wanted, quiet with dual fuel

I bought this to take to hunt camp and just regular camping. Item arrived, filled with oil and gas and immediately started up, switched to propane and didn't skip a beat. Another great feature was the remote start. When it gets really cold here in Colorado, it will be nice to have that feature.

Great Machine

Just assembled and started after sitting for three months. Fairly easy assembly and simple to follow directions. I bought two - one took two pulls to start and the other only one. Very quiet (running no load for break in period of five hours). Sips gas. Haven't tried propane yet but that's next on my list. It would be nice if there was a way to store the accessories (on board storage, storage bag, etc.) such as the propane line and regulator, tool kit, oil funnel, etc. Overall, very impressed with the capabilities and accessories, especially for the price.

Quiet as advertised

I bought this generator a few days ago. We live in South Florida. We survived the wrath of Ian but were without power for over a week. I originally resisted buying a generator. After a storm of that magnitude, I relented and chose this unit. Due to the reviews that this unit earned, its cost, compactness, and overall quiet operating volume, the choice was simplified.

Good size and quiet.

Picked this generator because reviews said it was quiet and had adequate power. I also needed the dual fuel option and a remote. I was disappointed to find the remote does not work. I am contacting the company tomorrow. Hoping this issue will be resolved.

Very Pleased. Well constructed & well thought out.

Liked what I read about this before buying. Even more impressed when I received it. Attractive. Quality construction. Well thought out. Included accessories and documentation is top notch. Pleasantly surprised to discover the sturdy extension handle which was not described n the sales write-up. Thanks Westinghouse!

All in One Pkg

I just purchased this for use when we go dry camping for both power and recharging our battery bank. It had the dual fuel, electric start and remote start that I was looking for and appears to be the quietest on the market. The true test will come this fall. It came well packaged.

Same quality, less price

I've ran on board rv gens and other portable gens for years. Found this 4500df and gave it a shot. Price was less than others(with similar features)and noise level seems the same. The remote is a nice touch and will come in handy when powering my trailer.

Generator works good

I read all the instructions- to include putting the correct amount of oil in the generator. Put gas in and it started right up! I have tried pull start, button start and Bluetooth start- all worked good! However you cannot leave the ON switch on all night for a hands free start in the morning! Battery doesn't have enough charge to start the motor! SO..... Glad it has a pull start!! Also its not the quietest generator I have ever heard, but it gets the job done! I like the front panel that shows the different measurements... fuel, watts ETC.

Great Invertor Generator

Purchased this invertor generator so we can run our travel trailer on clean power after a hurricane or while on the road. This size will run the a/c unit and the appliances so we can rest comfortably. Unit is well built and has many features that I liked, including the dual fuel option.

Solid product

I just purchased so not a lot of time on it. But the generator is solid, well built, easy to use. Instruction book is very easy to follow. Love the little extras like the pull out handle. The remote is the best part. No going out in the cold to turn off. Looking forward to years of use.
