Very powerful, very quiet

I have owned the igen 5000 DFC for about 2 weeks now. I have run it for about 3 to 4 hours under various light loads. It says to run for about 5 hours under 50% load so I do not know how much load it will handle but it seems to be doing well. I plan on only running this generator on propane. It started the very first time I hooked up the propane. I have started it with the remote start, the pool start, and the push button start. All worked flawlessly. This is the second Westinghouse generator that I have owned. Hopefully this one works as well as the last. It is a little large and a little heavy but it will power everything in my fifth wheel without a problem. Including the air conditioner. I would highly recommend this product.

Nice generator

Works great. Pretty quiet - especially in Eco Mode with lower loads. Easy to use. I like the dual fuel feature and the push button start. It's a bit heavy but the pull out handle makes it quite manageable. The oil and battery compartment covers could be bigger. If you have large hands it might be troublesome.

Great Generator

I bought the IGen5000DF recently. I haven't had need to use it yet, but it had everything I wanted as a small back up. It is light enough that I can take it with me when we go camping, but has enough power to use to keep the important things running in my house if need be.

Solid Generator

Recently purchased after an outage. It was very easy to set up, and instructions were easy to follow. I ran it with propane and in eco mode, it's about as quiet/loud as an idling lawn mower, which is nice. the handle makes it easy to move about, though I am slightly concerned that it has a bit of flex to it. All in all, a nice product.

Dual Fuel iGen5000DF

It came today, and it was easy to take out of the box. I love the wheels, and it seems it is very easy to make it work. I look forward to this hurricane season with a dual fuel generator that can run a small a/c unit, plus other items. Hope I do not need, but it is wonderful that I have it, just in case.

Ready For Power Failure

After this last winter of no power for 5 days, we bought this generator just in case it happens again. It is easy to setup. My only complaint was where you hook up the propane connection was not clear. Other than that, very easy to setup and get running.

The easy pull handle access makes it easy!

This generator was the 3rd one purchased in 3 months because the others were not up to the capacity that we needed. It is performing to our expectations and it truly is super quiet. We use it several times a week for our business so it needed to be dependable. We are not disappointed finally!

Surprisingly Quiet

Much quieter than our neighbor's generator. Note that there is some oil already in the engine. So even though the included oil container is 0.6 liter and the oil capacity is called out as 0.6 liter, you risk overfilling if you try to empty the entire container in.

Worked great with no issues

I bought this for emergency for when not if my house power goes out and it worked great. It started up first try and has always worked. So for only used propane and it worked great, i had no issues with it starting or shutting off or overload issues. It was really quiet for the power that it generates. I recommend this generator. I will continue to test it but so far so good
