Initial start up after adding oil, connecting battery and adding fuel took a while and after no success with remote/push button start tried manual start which did not work until trouble shooting and choke manipulation. No issues after the initial start.

The generators is replacing my WIN 11000 in my 36’ Diesel pusher (motorhome). Storm blew through in Dallas. I had to use my wind generator higher my house while it was installed in the motorhome so I bought this Westinghouse and move the WIN for back up power for my home. Have not done the 25 run hour oil change. I hadn’t even installed har in the motorhome yet. We’re working on that now. 8/12/24

It’s a heavy unit, and a “handful” for a single person to lift into the back of a pickup or into a storage compartment of a RV. I wish the engineers would come up with an exhaust extension so that CO fumes would be ducted away from the RV. Overall, I believe it’s the best answer for running two A/C’s with a residential refrigerator. I installed SoftstartRV’s on both of my 15k BTU A/C’s. And that made it feasible for me to use the iGen4500DF Inverter/Generator.

I have recently purchased a Westinghouse iGen 5000. It was delayed a couple times in shipping by Fedex, but still came in about a week. Unpacked it, put oil in, connected propane started on second pull. Put gas in, again started in a couple pulls, electric start worked also, no problems. It handles our 30 amp rv very well. Noise-wise, with a 15000 btu air on it is less than half as loud as our push lawnmower, standing right beside the generator, the neighbor's push mower across the street was very easily heard over the generator. Overall, I like this product and would recommend it to anyone interested in this size generator. Only feature that might be nice is a manual fuel gauge, to see fuel level before starting it.

Purchased this generator as a replacement for an open frame 4000 watt unit. Remote start and dual fuel provides awesome options and flexibility. For its capacity in watts, design and run time on gasoline.. you would be hard pressed to find a better unit. Especially for the price. Much, much quieter than my other unit. Very pleased!

I had been researching a generator for our new RV and believe we made the right choice on the Westinghouse IGEN4500DF. Once I took it out of the box and read the instructions I finished setting it up. Only downfall I had from instructions was for me to fill entire bottle of oil into the engine. I didn't use it all but still it was leaking out. Cleaned up the excess and closed the drain plug. Hooked up the Propane and put enough gas in to start. Okay, now I ready to start. It took a couple of tries and review of instructions but it started up. Then I switched over to Propane and you can here it convert. Let it run for a little bit and switched back to gas seamlessly. Remote worked like a charm. I can't wait to take it out camping and enjoy my new Westinghouse I GEN4500DF.

I purchased this to run the fridge, a couple of blowers for the heat and not much else. The connection to the house will be made in a couple of weeks because of electrical supply problems It is going to be used for emergencies and yet it is portable enough to take with us when we are traveling and we want some power. I like that it is dual fuel but we hope to only use it with the propane.

So far so good! I had spent a lot of time researching this purchase. I knew about some of the service bulletins and expected some initial hiccups but as it turns out, I've been able to run the first 5 hours of burn in with no start/run issues. I have run into one more complicated finding that I will be reaching out about, that is the lack of detectable ground by a tester after properly grounding via 8ft copper rod. I understand that there is some complication with floating neutral wiring as in this and many other generators, however the manual leaves the research up to you. One additional thing to be aware of, the fuel meter only registers with gas not propane, completely understandable I just had my hopes up there!

We bought this to assure our Small Business (SB) can stay in business! Our SB can now continue to support our nationwide customers during any local power outage. EASY to set-up, power-up, use, and maintain at peak performance for our office, without power surges that could damage our electronics. A true Customer Saver.

I bought this to replace a Honda EU3000is generator that I loved. Sadly, the Honda would never run our trailer air conditioner. Since everything is included, even a funnel to fill the oil, I took the box with us and I set this generator up over July 4th weekend. I did all the initial prep, it fired right up and after letting it run for a little while to break it in so to speak, I turned it off and connected the trailer to the RV plug. I restarted the generator and fired up the air conditioner and the power meter never went above 50%. It has a little bigger engine that the Honda, but I think it is easily as quiet as the Honda EU3000is generator was. The remote is a nice touch if you don’t want to go outside on a cold morning to start it.
