Home Power Backup Insurance

We bought the iGen4500 DF to provide backup power for our all electric home when we have power outages, which we seem to be having more often. This generator easily provides power for our 2 refrigerators and a freezer giving us the peace of mind that we won't loose our food. It also provides enough spare power to run many of our other needs to sustain living in our house after a storm or other outages. We got the Dual Fuel model as we also have propane tanks just in case there are gasoline shortages.

I would recommend this product to anyone.

this generator will be use for camping on my trailer with AC/ microwave ECT. The Gen.arrived with a clean box and no signs of damage Gen. also no sign of damage, Looked very good.after filliing with fuel/oil and connecting the battery it started with no issues, runs great.I ran the AC and microwave at the same time it run the gen. up to 100% and the gen. never missed a beat. however I am concerned after shutting it down then restarting and getting a backfire popping sound. I am not sure if this is anything serious.other that that, It seems to be a great Machine.

Nice and Quiet

Would not crank out of the box. Had to take panels off to get to the electric start module to reconnect the electric choke wire. Once connected the engine started right away. Has been running fine ever since. Pulls my camper air conditioner and all the lights at 25% load. Plenty of generator for my needs.

Warranty Replacement - Autochoke Issues

This unit is a warranty replacement for one I bought in July 2021. Out of the box, the autochoke did not work. fortunately I found a video on YT that showed me how to fix it in about 10 minutes. Unit ran well and met my power needs for my 5th wheel trailer. Unfortunately, the inverter failed after about 125 hours. Warranty service is a hassle. WH's tech support line is not supportive. Finally took my unit to an Authorized Service Center and it took them several weeks to get a replacement authorized. After that WH shipped the replacement in a few days. Unfortunately the autochoke doesn't work on the replacement and the YT video doesn't seem to apply. Back to the tech support grind!

Looks good

New purchase and just received. Well packaged and no issues to date. After reading the user manual I ordered and just received the high altitude kit(s), one for the regulator and second for the carburetor. Changing out the regulator nozzle is a simple procedure while the carburetor jet will be a little more work, just haven't had time to install it yet. But judging by the available online video it's a very straight forward procedure and I'm not anticipating any issues. All is going well so far.

Nice Inverter/Generator

I bought this inverter/generator to take camping. It is fairly quiet, has a large fuel tank allowing for long run times and will power the air conditioner on the camper. It's a good solid unit. I use it at high altitudes (9000 ft +) so I purchased separately and installed the high altitude jet before adding fuel or oil. Would be nice if jet kits were included with the unit like some competitors do. Anyone using over 2000 feet is recommended to replace if I remember correctly. Jet install could have a little simpler but the directions were clear.

Easy Start Up

I did a lot of research on this before buying it and I am so glad that it bought this unit. Instructions were incredibly easy to follow and the unit started on the first try. It’s been running for about an hour now and is incredibly quiet, easy to use and I’m very excited to have this. This is my first generator, I would highly recommend this brand and model is I think it will be a valuable asset for years to come.

Great portable generator

I was out of power for 4 days in July. Not going to happen to me again! This generator came recommended to me by my son who is an electrician. He said Westinghouse units were the best! He has installed many with transfer switches and he likes all the features this one has to offer. Came well packed with all accessories. Haven't had to use it yet, but this week in Michigan we have storms coming. Stay tuned...

Just as Advertized

I purchased this before this year’s hurricane season. It started with the first push of the electric start. I did a mock run of two freezers and two refrigerators all plugged in and for two hours it never had to work hard. It is quiet as advertised. I am very satisfied. It met my expectations.

Great features

I purchased this Generator ( my firist one ever) for a camping trip to power a 22 foot bumper pull camper. This unit worked flawlessly. followed the instructions and had no issues. Just read reread and made sure I did not miss anything in preping. Hope to use again in the next 4 weeks when it is colder.
