I've owned for about 1 month and followed the recommended break in procedure. So far the generator has performed flawlessly and seems a great value. Using 5W-30 synthetic oil as the owners manual chart indicates it is suitable for operation in all temperatures. The electrical ports are perfect for use with a camper/trailer and seems to have no issues with powering a single 13000 btu AC along with other electronics. Dual Fuel (propane) is a great convenience feature even though I plan to use gasoline primarily. Noise levels also seem to be low, looking forward to taking this out camping!

Bought this a couple months ago following the storms in the Midwest that took out power for several days. With a 40lb propane tank and running the essentials I’m getting 2 days of use on the first test run! Will be ready the next time power goes out!!!

Arrived in good packaging and had the first fill of 10W30 oil included with the basic spark plug and maintenance tools too. Filled up the oil, and a little gas and it fired up the first try. This unit is so quiet I had to bring my wife out to listen and we had a conversation right next to this generator under a 500 watt load. The battery was even charged so I could use the remote start fob to start and stop. I did a lot of research and price modeling for three months and landed on this unit. It is by far the best value in my mind and in online reviews for value. It is 10db (3 x) quieter than the other popular competition. The digital readout is very useful and not on most other generators. The fuel and power load indicators are easy to read at a glance graph like colored indicators. I was able to extend the telescoping handle and with one hand move this generator around easily and the handle stores back out of the way. I am very happy with this generator and look forward to our next RV adventure off grid.

I bought this as a replacement for a Honda EU2200i. I bought the Honda to run a camper and it wasn't quite large enough to run the AC and anything else. The 4500DF was easy to set up. There was too much oil in the provided oil container and so it overflowed a bit. Once inspected and filled with oil, I tested all of the functionality and everything seemed to work well. I ran it for about 5 hours under varying loads and it worked like a champ. The YouTube videos for the automatic choke issue were helpful to see where problems could exist. Fortunately, this 4500 seems to not have the issue. I had no problem with all lights on in the camper, the AC on, and the TV playing a movie from the DVD player. I didn't try the microwave at the same time yet. It ran very quiet. I was able to switch between fuels easily. I'd encourage folks to read the manual so you know what to expect. Remote works great. It would be nice to have larger and more all-terrain type wheels. A better funnel for oil would be nice, but they are super cheap. Curious how the oil changes will go to avoid making a huge mess. The Honda had an oil spout right on the fill tube that helped with oil changes and kept it clean and easy. A longer hose for the propane tank would be nice. From a quality control perspective, adding a tag in bright orange that says something like, "OIL NEEDED - DO NOT TRY TO START WITHOUT ADDING OIL" would be nice. Also a label for the propane valve that says, "This Side UP" would be nice. Understandably, these things are in the manual but it seems that reading is hard. I would definitely recommend this generator and am very happy with the purchase!

I bought this a couple of months ago. I'm glad I did, since they seem to be out of stock everywhere now. I've used it a few times and really like it. It's actually quieter than my 2200 watt top name generator. I bought this for use with my travel trailer, but I will set it up to run with my home generator set up as well now. I'm very happy and recommend the product. I do have the dual fuel model.

I ordered this generator June 4,2020 & due to back order I just received unit November2 ,2020. Followed prep & start up instructions, generator started right up on propane on it’s first start up cycle. Noise of unit is bearable with unit running. Receiving generator just in time with tropical storm ETAL approaching SW Florida this weekend 11/8/2020. Will be able rate this unit better after seeing how generator performs but unit seems to be well engineered. Chuck

I just got my iGen4500DF and was easy to unpackage and initial starting was very easy, add oil, connect battery, hook up propane and press button on key fobe! Started right up and was slightly louder than I expected but will be in my truck bed under canopy with ventilation. Seems well built as I expected:)

Seems to be a good generator so far. Plenty of power and lots of features. Starts very easy and remote start is very convenient as well. Also one of the quietest generators I’ve been around. Dual fuel capability makes it excellent for running our rv. Keep in mind it is a big generator so plan accordingly.

Purchased this generator online based entire on the reviews. This unit replaces a 4500 watt Champion. The Champion would fit in the back of my GMC Serria when the wheel kit was not present. The iGen5000df fits WITH the wheels, which is a big plus for loading and unloading. The iGen5000df will be used for RVing boondocking. Being quieter than the Champion, the wife is happy. Being lighter (approx 15 lbs), having built in wheels and quieter, I'm happy.

Just received my Westinghouse iGen4500DFc. I’ve just got it through the break in period and it’s the smartest purchase I’ve made. Super Low Sound, powers my whole trailer and is super efficient on Propane. The digital screen and remote start is such a huge bonus compared to other brands. Big enough to make great power yet small enough to pack around by yourself. Worth every dime.
