Great Features

I just received the generator. The main purpose of use will be for camping. I have no doubt that I would be able to use it minimally, for my home if needed. This generator has great features such as dual fuel, electrical outlets, USB, remote start and wheels to easily move when on the ground. It is quiet. I am satisfied with my purchase so far.

Compact and QUIET!

I researched generators for our Toy Hauler for over a year and finally decided on this Westinghouse iGEN4500DF. The dual fuel is perfect! Easy start up and operation. VERY quiet. Weighs under a hundred pounds so can be lifted and moved with ease. Even easier with the pull out handle that makes it as easy as pulling my old little red wagon! All controls and indicators are easily read and understood. Very well engineered! Works great with our 30 AMP RV hook up. In future, will be off road boondocking for sure!

Love all the features

I’ve had it about a week , got it broke in, I researched duel fuel generators for awhile before purchase, My biggest surprise is how quiet it is! Also all the features, remote start, gas gauge, easy to assemble just put oil in, connect battery, put gas in and turn it on it’s that simple!

IGen 4500DF I am banking on Westinghouse will make

Ordered this unit and first one was beat up by shipper so I refused the package. The sent me another unit and was in much better condition. Took unit out of box and and noticed back cover was not lined up with the blue sides and saw that the back cover was missing two screws. I did the setup and started it on propane and it started on first try. The generator runs great on propane but not in the eco mode it wants to surge but with non-ethanol gasoline it runs great in both modes. Much quieter than I thought. For all of you looking at YouTube videos the digital meter looks like it’s flashing but when you are running it the meter looks normal. I will be 101% satisfied once my screws are replaced and the surge is taken care of in the propane eco mode. I will post some video but my phone makes it sound much louder than it really is. Grab one you won’t be sorry!

Looks Great!

Just received my IGen5000DFc. Looks solid and the startup was simple and worked great. Pretty quiet as well. Praying this inverter generator will last a very, very long time. My last generator (different manufacturer) was practically brand new, but stopped generating power with less than 100 hours on it.

Love the Dual Fuel Option

I love that this generator also runs on propane. It allows me to power everything off my RV - my rig, my camp chef, my fire pit, and now my generator. No carrying around extra fuel tanks. It runs great and is relatively quiet, especially for the size and power it produces.

iGen4500DF

Had less than a week so I have no long term usage yet. Very surprised at how quiet it is. Set up was very easy. Came with everything needed to get started. Battery was charged already. Added oil and started right up. So far it rarely goes above 50% power even with the ac on in my Rv. Low fuel consumption as well. Well laid out control panel. And the remote start is a nice extra

Great for RVing

I bought this a little over a month ago and the flexibility of gasoline or propane is great. The generator was easy to set up and both fuel types work equally well. This sits well in the truck bed (locked in) and produces plenty of power. Highly recommended.

Quiet

Started up out of box, ran for hour or so great. Next few days temp dropped int 40* and would not start. Last two times on different days had to take off maintenance cover held by 4 screws and manually control choke to start. Not happy with having to start this way.

East Setup

Opened the box, read the manual, connected the battery and propane and it started with a simple push of the button. Still waiting for the 'break in' period to end, before I see what it can do. Very impressed how quiet it is. The built in handle is a joy. Looking forward to using it camping.
