Igen4500DF

Bought this generator and the finish looks good. I repair high tech medical equipment and I will mention why I chose this generator. It’s not just important to choose a reliable unit, but a unit that you’ll be able to find good local service and readily available parts in the event you need them. I did research on the generator as well as being able to service it locally and this unit won just over any other unit out there.

Happiness is a Humming Generator

We just started our new 5000 DF generator, and are using propane. It starts right up, push button and remote. The noise level is so much lower than our previous dinasour gas model, very little vibration, and it just plain looks good.. And now we are ready to take our first ever camping trailer out west, and no matter where we end up, we should have all the comforts of home. After quite a bit of research and reviews…we have put our confidence in Westinghouse.

iGen4500 - Duel Fuel

The iGen4500DF- Dual Fuel generator is a excellent generator its running a freezer, a refrigerator and some lighting and outlets in our house with no problem. Also we will be using it for our RV. Its very quiet and really like all the features it offers really like the duel fuel and the pull handle which makes moving it really easy. It runs great on propane. I feel is a well made generator and would purchase again.

Did alot of research

Did a lot of research before buying this generator for home and trailer use. Read from reviews that it is incredibly quiet and YES, it is. Very impressed with the easy setup and overall operation of the generator. So far, I am pleased with the purchase.

Great generator

Love the bells and whistles this generator comes with. You can't beat it for the price. Comes set up for propane with no extras needed. Ordered via Samsclub. Box was beat up but the generator was in decent shape. No scratches. A few spots in the blue plastic that seemed light in color like it had been hit or stressed, that or they just had inconsistent coloring. Quiet, although the frame has a bit of rattle to it. Hoping I can find something loose. Noticeably a little louder in that than other models, although exhaust seems quiet from afar. Had lots of trouble starting on its first time. Ended up killing battery I tried so much, and it wouldn't start with the pull cord either. Charged battery up (while it let it rest) and it took right off 2 hrs later after it had rested. Seems to start great now.

New today

Got the generator today and ran it for a few hours. There were no issues running but I wished they would have provided only enough oil to fill it. There was just a bit more than needed and it flowed out a bit. Not a big deal just actually the only thing I found. Otherwise it seems a very well made generator with well though out packaging. I used the propane setup and it was perfect.

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.

Ready to Start

Everything included to be able to start right out of the box. Right amount of oil included and the wrench needed to connect propane bottle to generator. Once oil added and battery connected the generator started with the first pressing of the start button. Very quiet compared to my other generator. All necessary documentation included with this equipment.

Favorably impressed

So far I am very impressed. The apparent quality, fit and finish, documentation/manual, supplied accessories and operation all very satisfactory. I was especially impressed with the exploded views of the parts, parts list and the schematic which showed not only wire colors but also gauges. As a Electrical Engineer this quality of schematic is not common. Still in the break in period so I expect satisfactory performance and reliability.

So far so good.

Just got this unit and have not used it much, but so far i like it. Not quite as quiet as a Honda but almost. I like the remote start and the cost compared to other brands. I can't wait for camping season to come again so I can put it to use powering my fifth- wheel trailer. This is the main reason I bought it. So far so good.
