I JUST PURCHASED THIS UNIT BECAUSE YOU CAN RUN IT ON LP GAS OR GASOLINE. AFTER INITIAL START UP IN BOTH MODES IT PERFORMED WELL. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE, AND WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANY ONE LOOKING FOR A DUEL FUEL INVERTER GENERATOR, PLUS I FORGOT TO MENTION IT IS VERY QUIET WHEN RUNNING!

This generator started right up on the first try and it is quite as advertised. I purchased this item to use during power outages. It has all the power I need to run the important items in the house. I haven't had to use it during a black out to date, but this will give me peace of mind when the power goes off.

Fuel, Oil and connect the battery. Fired up on 2nd pull. Checked remote start and push button, both started it up immediately. Quick load test from my spare fridge and everything is looking and sounding great. No real run time to speak of just yet that's the only reason for 4 out 5 stars. Recommend keeping the oil container for future service.

Received generator today. Unpacked and inspected looks great. Installed supplied oil, ,assembled supplied propane hose to regulator and attached to propane tank , checked for leaks . I turned switch to run ,pulled 3x and fired right up . Plugged a small load and let in run about 20 minutes. Will continue break in over next of days . So far very happy with my new generator only time will tell.

Just bought this unit a couple months ago. Cannot comment on the reliability or durability yet. I had been looking for a portable generator for several months for my 5th wheel trailer and the features on this one were hard to match. First impressions were excellent and it started up immediately after setup. I have only run it on propane at this point and will soon test it with gasoline before heading out on a boondocking trip next month. It comes with everything needed to connect to a propane tank. My only complaint is that the length of the propane hose is a bit limiting and they do not have an option to purchase longer ones. I changed to a 12ft hose so I could reach the two on-board propane tanks on my trailer. I purchased a hose locally, but had to change out some fittings to get it to work. Overall, very happy with my choice so far and really like the dual-fuel feature and the remote start.

So far, I have only done the initial start up on my new IGEN4500DF. Getting to the initial startup was extremely easy. Hookup the battery via SAE connectors at the back of the machine. Fill the engine with the provided oil. Fill the gas tank with gasoline, or hook up your propane hose to the provided regulator and hose. Turn the fuel source dial to which ever fuel source position you are using. Turn the ECO mode off, and the battery switch on. Then do any one of the following: pull the recoil starter, or push the push button start on the front panel, or use the remote start FOB that is provided. I used the remote start FOB for the first time from in the house, and it fired up on the first attempt. AWESOME! Full tank of gasoline (3.5gal) shows 21hrs of run time on the digital gauge, with no load drawn from the inverter. Impressive! I'm going to let it run for about 3hrs, as an initial break-in period. Taking it camping with us next month, and I will be running it on LP and gasoline then. I wish there was a specific heavy duty cover for this model, so I could keep it setup on the tongue of my travel trailer all the time, without worry. Let's go Westinghouse, make it happen. A specific cover for this unit, not a one and done universal cover. I will update after we actually use this camping. I only gave it 4 stars due to my initial impression, that may go up or down after it is run , used as it is supposed to be.

I had a gas generator, but the whole storing and keeping gasoline fresh was just a pain, so I never really had gas ready. But with this, there's none of that--and I already have propane for the bbq, and it doesn't go bad in a month--so it's always going to be ready!

I purchased my Westinghouse Igen4500DF due to the regular power outages we experienced in our neighborhood. I took a few weeks to reviews a ton of reviews and always found this model to be in the top rated. Its quiet and easy to use. One of my favorite features is the stowaway handle for ease of moving. Thank you Westinghouse for making a great product!

After extensive research I settled on the dual fuel 4500DF to supplement my battery generators. I am very pleased with this product that was up and running in 20 minutes out of the box. Output was slightly less than expected, but we are 5500 feet altitude so I’ll be purchasing the recommended high altitude kit. Controls were easy to negotiate, and LED data panel was very helpful. Loved the remote start function!

I run sensitive equipment and must have an inverter generator. this is one of the more capable units out there. plus i can run it on propane.It has plenty of outlets and can run in parallel with another unit. I use it for my rv and to run essential circuits in the house when we loose power. Very happy with the generator
