Amazingly quiet and reliable

I’ve owned this inverter for over 2 years now and it has worked flawlessly. I have only used it with propane to keep it as clean as possible, and I do not regret my purchase one bit. It starts with just a push of a button each and every time. Absolutely love this product and highly recommend it to friends and family. This is worth every penny.

All the power I need for an emergency

All the power I need when the lights go out. We have constant power failures during the winter months when the heavy wet snow hits, this keeps us going until they get the power back on. This keeps the refrigerator, freezer, internet, all our TVs, coffee pot, and most importantly for me, my CPAP machine all going lots of power to spare I was surprised at how quiet it was even when standing right next to it.

Very nice design and great features.

Very well engineered with easy to pull out handle for moving it around. Dual fuel feature on this particular model which is a big convenience. It has enough power to run my RV and I can start it up remotely. The only negative is I would like to have a 12V outlet which is not available

So far so good.

My generator was manufactured in July 2020 so was not affected by current recall. No damage noticed upon unpacking, no rust in gas tank. Have started and run on propane only which went flawlessly so can only hope that I don't suffer auto choke issues.

Dual Fuel and Remote Start

I've reviewed and tested a number of other generators and this Westinghouse IGen 4500DF unit has all the bells and whistles. I am very impressed with the low sound rating, dual fuel and remote start options. No more cat calls when I startup this quiet generator in the campground.

Had all the features I was looing for

Ran great during the break in period, changed oil and ran it at home. Getting ready for a trip, my wife said she smells gas. The generator then sputtered then died, like it was running out of gas. I took off the side panel and noticed gas leaking all over the place. Somewhere at the fuel line. I cleaned up what I could and let it sit overnight. The gas leaked all over the wiring and god only knows what else. It now will not come close to starting. Its too bad this gen. was the only one with the features I wanted at a reasonable price. It had only 23 hours on it all break in hrs.

Quiet and powerful

Generator is much quieter than expected. It has plenty of power to supply everything I want for my camper. It is a little heavier than expected but the extendable carry handle makes it easy to move around once it’s on the ground. I really like the remote operation and the dual fuel capability, that is specifically why I purchased this one over other brands.

Nice Unit

The unit arrived in good condition, was easy to setup and get started. The battery for the electric start was even charged. The display is nice to see fuel level, power output, voltage etc. Having the 30Amp camper receptical eleiminates one more adaptor, nice. Fairly quiet for its power output.

Great features

I bought this prior to a cross country trip in our travel trailer, “just in case.” I ended up needing it twice while on the trip. The unit was quiet and easy to run. The remote start was also great so I didn’t have to get up in the middle of the night to get it going!

rv off grid

I did a lot of research on off grid RV generators. This machine is the answer to all you will need off grid. I operate multiple tools while powering the camper, with the air running. We can run directly to the rv with ease, or utilize the gen to recharge battery bank. It has a remote start with a load sensor, this is wonderful, as the generator will throttle up and down according to load. And to top it off, the dual fuel is another double feature, we are very happy with this equipment
