Digital Inverter Generator iG4500DFcv

I purchased my Inverter Dec. 2023, to power my RV. I love everything about, it is easy to operate on all levels. It is easy to start, and move. I filled it up and it ran for 14 hours powering my heating unit at night and powered my A/C unit and refrigerator on days when it was warm. The noise level was right under 52dB. I was able to sleep comfortably and soundly without being disturbed by the inverter running. It has been the best purchase I have made. Get you one, you will not be disappointed. I will be recommending this unit to all my family and friends.

Fully Loaded Generator

The igen5000fdc is a great product with all the features I wanted. I was shopping for a lower powered generator initially but when I found this quiet generator already set up for lp or gasoline with true inverter power that would be all I needed for my RV I was sold. I had a Honda 2000 that I had converted to propane but it did not have enough power and I did not want to purchase another one to run in parallel for the money it cost to buy this unit. Plus, this unit comes with push button and remote start. Also, instead of adding external run time monitoring it came equipped with a full range of monitoring. It is heavy, but I purchased a ramp to load it into my pickup truck. I now can take it with my travel trailer and camp in National Forest or lower cost sites in the national parks. I will save the money I would have spent on campsites with full services and probably have a better experience being in the park.

Ron's very quiet even with a load on it!

The generator seems professionally built and the fit and finishe is good except for the rear exhaust is off center from the exit hole a good bit and the propane attachment coming out of the front control panel needs to be 1/8 to 1/4 inch over to the right. I barely was able to get the hose fitting attached.

Awesome inverter generator!

This is the second iGen I have bought, gave the first one (4500) to our son. Have had to use it numerous times during the year and expect to use it more as our power seems to be coming less reliable. I typically run it on propane but having the gasoline option is very convinent! Great machine, totally recommend it!

Nice & Quiet

After many months of research and online comparisons we decided on the iGen5000DF. I bought this a few months ago and just got it out of the box today to get it ready for camping. Set up was easy, connected to propane and it started right up with the remote. Runs very quiet. Looks like we are ready for off the grid camping during the heat of the summer and be able to run the air conditioner. This is our 1st Westinghouse Inverter

Great Generator

We bought this to run our camper that uses 120va/30a. It runs the whole thing effortlessly including the AC during a very HOT trip to Florida. We have only used propane and it ran for 12+ hours on a single tank with the AC running. I did register the unit and is said it would send me a free cover but they never did. I don't know why?

Quiet and loaded with features

I bought this generator to replace a very loud generator I have owned for many years. I always felt like I was disturbing the entire neighborhood when I ran that one. This one is quieter than I ever expected, and even quieter on Eco mode. The display for run time remaining, power being used, and hours run is fantastic. This generator has everything I could ever want. I usually have a full tank of propane at the house as a spare for the grill, so with dual fuel capability, even if I've used all the gasoline in the mower, I'm still good to go when I need generator power.

Easy Peasy setup and run

I bought this for the inevitability of a Louisiana hurricane. We rarely lose power but wanted a back up plan this year. Setup instructions were straightforward and the start was great. I tested with different items plugged in to watch the control panel. I also tried out a 220 to 110 converter extension plug. Everything went well. No issues.

Impressive and Easy

I did a great deal of research before buying this. Dual fuel, ease of operation , portability and push button start were the options that made my decision. Mind you, I've only run it for a few hours but it worked beautifully and was much less quiet than my old gas generator. Although it was supposed to include the converter and the hose for my propane tank, the hose was missing on mine. (Solved as of today with a call). I used my neighbor's hose and once I got past the ridiculous amount of warnings in the instruction booklet, I was easily able to power it up and I'm no mechanical genius although it's dual power, after having run on propane and knowing I won't have to empty your gas tank when not in use, I'll never choose the gas option unless forced I plugged in my refrigerator, a fan, two lamps and my coffee maker. It easily handled the load. The handle pulls out and makes it possible to pull it like a suitcase. I'm a small woman and was still able to handle it

Excellent Generator.

We bought this generator to run our camper. So far we have taken it out and used it once. It does not disappoint. Runs everything in our camper no problem and the remote is super handy. Starts most times no problem. Make sure to turn off the battery switch if you do not use it for a while so the battery doesn't die. Other than that its a nice unit.
