I purchased this generator/inverter after losing power during a series of storms. I selected it based on compact size, wattage, electric start but primarily because it will run on both gasoline and propane. I've had small engine trouble (15 hp Yamaha outboard) due to ethanol fuel separation after storage. Since this generator is only for occasional use, and I always have fresh propane for my BBQ, the "Duel Fuel" capability sealed the deal. I'm still breaking it in, so I can't comment yet on longevity. Very pleased with purchase!!

IGEN4500dfc Unbelievable amount of power for its size and has a very low noise level. Tested at 3200 running watts and it has no problem keeping up. Had 2 deep freezer and 1 large fridge and it ran perfect. Does not seem to have any problem running motors. Have owned a short time now and started once a month and ran a few hours. Tested with gas and propane. I only use propane for all the above. The running watts display is very accurate. The frequency is rock solid 60hz. Extreamly efficient on propane. No problems with shipping or damage. Used tech support online and and they will help you if you need them. If you use the 30amp receptical on the left side, it will handle heavy loads with not even a struggle. Very impressed and will get another in future.

I ordered this after trying another brand and Westinghouse came through in a pinch. This generator is dual fuel and I want to only use propane so I tried that setup first. It started on the first try. We had a power outage the next weekend and it worked great.

I bought the same model generator six month ago. It was recalled. I returned it per the instructions. A replacement was received within one week! Great service. I like everything about this generator. It does everything it is advertised to do and MORE!! Suggestion for the next version: An oil change is required after the break-in. This should be an easy process but it is a giant PAIN!! The problem is that the oil drain plug is very hard to remove but not impossible. Here is the problem, once that drain plug is removed, it is very, very difficult to thread it back into the drain hole. One cannot get a straight angle on the drain plug to line it up with the threads in the drain hole. It will slip out of your hand and get lost down in the outside (blue) casing. A SIMPLE FIX: The casing access panel should be enlarged so one can get a straight angle on the drain plug to thread it back into the drain hole. PROOF OF THIS PROBLEM: Get the design team to have five engineers remove and replace the drain plug in its present configuration. Better still, use five "administrative" employees to perform this test. It will become evident that a redesign of the access panel is necessary and a simple solution!!

This is a well made inverter generator with enough power to run a decent size RV AC unit. The bonus is that is dual fuel and can run off of propane or gas. The unit also came with all of the needed accessories so I didn't have to purchase them separately.

Well had to be worked on rite out of the box , plug for choke was disconnected , had to remove side covers and front and rear covers also to plug connector in for choke , also sent a faulty regulator with unit , generator runs great after tearing it down to repair it , should not have to work on it straight from the box

I got this a week ago we have been without power for some time in Canadian winter. Was previously borrowing a friend's generator; but decided to get out own. This thing is quiet reliable and I'm getting 18 hours on the tank. The. Other nice feature is even my wife has no problems starting it.

I bought this generator to replace 2 smaller generators that had been stolen. I waited a long time due to being out of stock for months, as soon as it became available I put the trigger and haven't regretted it since. It so nice to wake up in the morning and push a button to start the generator.

I'm a 60-year-old woman, and my friend suggested this generator for me. When he showed me how to use it (with propane) I was amazed at how simple it is and how quiet it runs. I'm very happy to have this on hand for the (not so infrequent) power outages that occur here in central NH.

I have been looking and wanting this generator for camping for a little over a year. I had to wait for it to come back into production. In that time I looked at every other brand that would fit my needs/wants. They all were lacking in quality and features that I found in this one. I've only had is a short time but it performs just as promise. Started first time out of the box after adding oil and hooking up the propane. I look forward to many years of use.
