Perfect!

Wow! I love this generator. It is dependable, quiet and powerful; far & above anything I've owned in a smaller generator prior. The remote start, sound level, system monitoring and portability is exactly what I was hoping for in a generator we could use both at home for back-up power as well as away with our camper. I am a long-time motor head from Detroit in my 60's and really scrutinized this thing upon arrival to see how they approached it and was thoroughly impressed with the build and finish. The dual-fuel capability was important and this unit does not disappoint with change-over from (gas) to (propane) and back again seamlessly. You hit it out of the park Westinghouse!

Very quiet, easy to setup

I bought this middle of January for a less noise and more power. Came in and put the oil and gas in according to the quick setup and started right up, no issues. Cannot believe what a difference the sound level is to my older generator. Hopefully I don't need to use it much but I am prepared.

Exactly As Advertised

Everything worked perfectly. Was well packaged with no damage. Started right away on both gas and propane. I am at sea level so no mods needed to run but plan to travel to above 7000ft elevation so I ordered the high altitude kit for both gas and propane. The part number for the gas kit was not correct in the manual.

Had to get a second

I liked my first Westinghouse 4500DF that I bought a second one. I also bought the parallel kit to run them simultaneously for 50 amp service. I haven't run them but based on the obvious quality of the construction and design it was not a mistake. I've recommended this product to friends already!

Best unit in its class after lots of reviewing!

I just purchased this unit a couple weeks ago. After several weeks of investigation across lots of platforms reading reviews and watching video's of actual users. I'm a geek enough I made a spreadsheet to compare the models and this one won! After receiving it packaging was excellent and the generator was in perfect condition, took about 15 minutes to read the instructions and get the oil in etc then fired right up using the remote start! it's quiet enough to talk right next to it. I tested on a light load right away and so far its been perfect! We're heading out for a 2 week vacation, using a fifth wheel camper where I plan to power an AC unit, fridge and some lights, if I run into any problems I'll update this review but so far its a perfect choice for us.

All the bells and whistles

I bought this to use at my camp and to use with a travel trailer. Chose this particular model due to the dual fuel capability, remote start, integrated wheels, inverter/quiet and the price. The next closest comparable generator in price is almost 1000 watts less capable and does not have remote start. So far have about 25 hours run time and everything is working flawlessly

Received with no issues

Had unit shipped to my house. No damage. Unboxed, filled with oil and hooked up to 20lb propane tank. Started with 3-4 pulls. Let run while pulling a load with an electric space heater for 1/2 hr. Quiet. A little heavy but nice collapsable handle to wheel around.

My second Westinghouse generator

This genertator is exactly as billed. Powerful, reliable and extremely easy to move around thanks to the built-in handle. I am glad I got it. This is my second Westinghouse. My off grid property runs solely on the generator. I have run a heater, microwave, vacuum, and portable AC on it. It works great!

Love this generator!! So Versatile!!

We bought this generator to power our travel trailer. Our favorite feature is it's dual fuel capability. It is so great to be able to operate using propane especially when camping while not having the gas fumes to deal with. The electric start is fantastic and having a wireless remote control is the icing on the cake. It's so nice to be able to start the generator from inside our travel trailer on cool mornings. It was so easy to set up and operate and started on the first attempt. It is also so nice to have the LED display with remaining run time, remaining fuel and lifetime hours data is really helpful. The Gen4500DF is so very quiet for such a large generator! I couldn't get over how you can be standing right beside it while running and have a pleasant conversation with someone. Other great features are the telescoping handle and the never flatting wheels. For such a large generator that really makes it so easy to move it around when needed. I am so glad we purchase this Westinghouse generator. It has really been a great asset for our camping adventures! We are heading to Florida for our next trip and I know we will have no worries with our power needs because of wonderful generator.

High power, good quality, great price

This unit is feature rich, I particularly like the dual fuel option. I could not do the initial start on propane, had to use gas, now it works fine on either. The remote start is cute, although I don't how much I will need or use it. The data center is info I have never had before, and very useful. This generator actually has more power and a smaller footprint than my prior unit, and is portable enough for it's size. So far, I'm impressed with the quality.
