Much quieter than our neighbor's generator. Note that there is some oil already in the engine. So even though the included oil container is 0.6 liter and the oil capacity is called out as 0.6 liter, you risk overfilling if you try to empty the entire container in.

Just got this generator & still breaking it in. like how quiet it is, the large fuel tank & how powerful it seems to be. just putting light lads on it yet when breaking in, but it takes quite a bit to get it up to 1/4 load. Should work well for us as we travel from one dirt track race to the next. Anxious to see how economical it is on fuel. Plan on primarily running it on gas & using the LP as a backup source.

I was totally shocked that the iGen4500DF truly rose to the occasion when I took it out onto the road and deep into the wilderness with zero access to AC power. It performed exactly as if I was plugged in at an rv park, powering up my air condioner in 100° heat. Only used 50% of it's capacity with the air running and all my gadgets charging at once! Microwave seemed to heat my food up hotter and faster which surprised me even more. The level of sophistication of this smart genarator when it comes to the key fob electric start, and its monitoring display essentially letting you know everything that is going on with your unit while in operation is top notch. It annihilates any and all dummy gensets including my freakishly loud Coleman Powermate. The eco setting keeps it quiet and almost as peaceful as the super pricey Hondas. Hoping for many high powered camping days ahead! Might take forever to be delivered but it's worth the wait...

This generator is definitely as quite as they say. We can talk over it without yelling and is not distracting in a camp ground. Setup was simple enough (even though the quick start guide seems to be for a different generator so watch out for that). Great generator!

Update from 2 Feb 2022. I purchased this gen on 1 Feb 2023 and I am in the process of breaking in the first 5 hours of run time. I am now at 4 hours and have been varying the load as stated in manual. My first review said that the Digital Data Center was not working properly. It still doesn't have the daily run time but it does keep track of the overall runtime. I am very satisfied with this generator. Even with my a/c and fireplace/heater running the generator is at 50% power.

I bought this generator due to it being rich with features. It is quiet, it has ample power for my use, dual fuel capability, remote start, three-ways to easily start it, a display panel with stats, lightweight and a three year limited warranty. I have owned one of the contractor generators in the past and they are so noisy you can't have a conversation anywhere within 25 or 30 yards of it. The Westinghouse iGen 4500 inverter generator is so quiet I can stand right next to it and converse without having to raise my voice. It is quieter than a car engine running. I lose power, on average, a couple of times a week for two or more hours and a couple of winters ago I lost it for 4 days straight in freezing weather. It's not fun sitting around the house without even having a radio, much less a television or even charging a phone and only a flashlight for light. Now I can power some electronics and lights. At times I am not available to crank up a generator but with the iGen, my wife can flip the ON switch and remote start the generator without a problem. It even has an automatic choke built into the unit. It starts on the first try every time I have used it. Dual fuel was a big plus for me. Instead of having limited capability and having multiple gas cans sitting around, I can use my 250 gallon propane tank that is located just a few yards from my install location. Propane is also a much cleaner burning fuel and therefore it will not gum-up the carburetor like gasoline. I like being able to monitor my power usage and the led display panel shows power output, voltage and running time. For those that use gasoline, there are additional readouts that shows your fuel level in addition to remaining run time. The warranty being three years is probably as good as it gets. I spent a lot of time trying to find a generator that had all the features that I wanted. I could not ask for a better generator and I am extremely happy with my purchase.

Purchased to power a travel trailer and in the event of power outages. Box was shipped well protected and setup was straightforward. Started on propane and ran perfectly out of the box. Retractable handle is very useful for moving around the house and campsites. Very happy with my purchased so far and look forward to using this for years to come.

I bought this generator for its duel fuel capabilities. It came with all you new to run off propane except the propane it’s self. I would not expecting a propane to come with it. So far I have only ran it off propane and I might never run it off gas. With that said it is nice to have another fuel option in an emergency. This product has performed up to my expectations so far. It is new and I can not speak for the reliability of this product yet, maybe I will update this review in a couple of months.

I bought this RV Inverter dual fuel model earlier in the month and am still in the break in period. We have used it once so far and it worked flawlessly. My thought on the Dual Fuel is if I run out of gas I can use one of the propane tanks on the RV, made a lot of sense to me and Propane burns so much cleaner is also a plus. The only negative is figuring out how to get to the fuel valve to run the carb dry after use. Still working on that!

We were anticipating a pretty significant snow storm here in Northwest Kentucky. Y to he night before it’s arrival I tried to start my 20 year old generator. Always worked well, but locked up this time! I bought this Westinghouse Dual Fuel 4500 unit as the storm began. In 20 minutes I was up and running! No pulling cords to start: the battery did it all! The sound level is so much better than my previous generator. This is a great find.
