Works well

Packaging did it's job but wasn't the best or the worst. Had to connect battery, add oil (they give you almost twice what you need), and connect propane and it started right up. Will see how it lasts over time. I have a larger westinghouse generator that still works fine from 5 years ago.

Great features!!

Bought for boon docking and AAU track meets in our RV. We’re in love. It’s quiet, powerful and easy to manage. It lasts about 3 hours with a tank of gas running one AC. Perfect for the year round louisiana heat. We are so happy we bought this! Well worth the money!!! AMAZING GENERATOR OVER ALL!!! Buy it if you have doubts.

Just what we needed!!

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.

So far So good

We have yet to fire it up, but all the pieces are there. No issues with parts that we can see. We bought this for our camper and home use if we loose power. This year we have lost power two different times while at a campground, so we are prepared now. Looking forward to the propane option.

Easy set up

Got this trailer camping. It was easy to setup up, except that the SAE plug on the battery had been crushed when I opened it, so I had to tweak that back into shape (round). Not a big fan of the oil fill/change method; you better hope you don't over fill by 1 milliliter, or you will have spillage inside the case. I put a folded shop towel in there to catch any residue, and I'm glad I did. Otherwise, generator works great, although the display is not rotating like it says it will. Good purchase

All the features I wanted.

I selected this because it was big enough to run anything in my house, it had electric start, it would run on gas or propane, it was an inverter, and it was small enough to easily move. After prepping it, it started right up on propane. To test it I ran a circular saw and a reciprocating saw together. I’m a satisfied customer.

Powerful and quiet

I bought this inverter to power my refrigerator and some lighting during power outages. The generator is super quiet, easy to operate and has more than enough power for what I initially wanted to run. I plan to add a few more circuits to my transfer switch given the generator’s capacity. Highly recommend.

Best One Out There

After Hurricane Sally, I decided I needed a larger generator, and the dual-fuel feature on the IGen4500DF was especially attractive. The propane option, even though not quite as powerful as the gas, to me is much more convenient, easier to store, and safer. Easier to have 5 propane tanks around than 5 extremely flammable plastic gas containers. Starts and runs without a hitch, easy to understand controls, everything in the right place, powerful, quiet. What is there not to like??

So Far So Good

Bought this generator for emergency needs. This is the first generator I have owned and operated. Pretty easy to setup if you follow the instructions closely. The instructions are pretty good if you read carefully. Using it today for the first time to start the break in period. Doing fine so far. Seems like it will do what i need.

Freedom to camp anywhere!

The generator just arrived in perfect condition out of the box. I intend to use it for a weekend trip in a couple of weeks. I have an open frame generator which is really loud and not an inverter generator. This generator will be significantly quieter and provide cleaner power to my trailer. I also like the remote start feature so I can turn it on from inside the trailer if I need a quick boost of power in the morning.
