Bought as a stand by generator for my house. I especially love the DF option as I will be using it in case of emergency, so I won’t have to worry about leaving gas in the tank. Extremely quiet! Started with ease on the first try. Only negative comment I would have is the oil provided is to much. Instructions say to add the whole bottle.. I made the mistake of not checking as I was putting it in and it overflowed.

Just received this generator. It arrived very quickly once shipped. Everything seems to be as described. I just unpacked it, put in the oil and gasoline and tried all of the various methods to start it up. (pull string, push button, remote) All methods fired it right up without issue. Switched between gasoline and propane while running seamlessly. Have not put any kind of load on it yet, as my RV is in storage, so I can't speak to that aspect yet, but I expect to do that within the next few weeks. All in all, so far so good. The only reason I did not select 'excellent' is because I have not yet experienced the generator in use.

I experience occasional power failures in my area so I bought this generator to get me through. After following the quick start instructions, generator fired right up. Biggest surprise is how quiet it is. Tried running with gas and then propane, both ran flawlessly. Nice machine, well built, somewhat heavy, very sturdy. Would recommend to anyone who needs a generator.

Bought this generator and was very pleased to see all the nice things that was said about this product were true. very surprised on how less noisy this generator is compared to the ones I hear in my neighborhood. I have a Samsung refrigerator that didn’t like the previous generator, but with this generator, it worked like it was the normal electricity. I am confident this generator will perform very well.

Bought this generator for powering our 5th wheel while boondocking. Have been camping in the Western Sierras for the past week with one more to go. Temps are averaging 100 to 106. Have run this generator on propane only for 8-10 hours a day powering one and sometimes two 15k AC's (both have EZ Starts) with no problems. Love this generator for it's features, ease of operation and power. Hope it lasts forever!

I have been shopping around for a generator/inverter for years. I have particularly been interested in a duel fuel option. Hauling around propane cylinders instead of gas cans seems like a safer option. I am still going through the 5 hour/50% max power output, but am very pleased so far. The unit is very quiet as advertised and I am waiting to see what full output will sound like. With 3 starting options (push button, remote and pull cord) I am sure to be able to get the gen started when needed. Overall very pleased so far with my purchase and feeling more secure in the crazy weather Nebraska can dish out. Camping has a lot more options now too!

After trying another brand of generator without an electric start I was left disappointed with the poor performance. I constantly had to fight to keep it running. With the 4500df I can now start it by keyfob from bed in the morning and have my coffee maker running in no time. Best of all I'm not having to constantly restart due to stalling like my previous brand generator. This has been a night and day difference and makes my family's dry camping experience so much easier with the ability to tap into my propane.

I was totally surprised how easy it was to set this generator up.The set-up directions are clear and easy to under stand. After preparing it for operating with gasoline I was still concerned but a few seconds after i hit the auto button it was purring like a kitten. It is TOPS in quality of Construction, Operation and Appearance.

Got it today. In process of filling oil dropped dipstick and it fell down under the floor panel. Because i’d added oil it made it way more difficut as tilting it would have lex to oil gushing out if the dipstick hole. Took a plumbing camera a lond of long curved hemostats and an hour of fiddling to retrieve it. The oil fill/change system is this thing’s achilles heel. Definitely not looking forward to the first oil change. Once that was done on to the propane. The regulator assembly is super big and a but clunky to have hanging off the bottle with its weight riding on the connection. Propane line is very short, necessitating keeping the bottle right next to the gennie. Operationally it was fine. Started right up, ran for 5 hours powering a big fan and an rv converter with occasional a/c unit power which is ultimately the reason for the purchase. And for that it appears it’ll do just fine. Will update when its got some hours on it of real world use. Thys far though it’s better than the pair of paralled Ryobi’s its replacing. They would often struggle just to light off the a/c unit, let alone anything else. While I cant fire up both the 13,500 and the 10,200 a/c’s (as least on propane) it does handle the big one woth biatloads of breathing room. Much quieter than the ryobi’s were as well.

Bought this generator after reading many reviews. It has performed great so far but this is based on very limited use. It will be primarily used as emergency power back up for our home. It replaces a very noisy Coleman generator that gave us many years of dependable back up power.
