Perfect for potential household emergencies

I bought this particular generator after looking at many brands and models, and selected this because it has a dual fuel feature, runs quietly, provides ample power, and comes from a company with a solid reputation for reliability and durability. So far, I am not disappointed!

Good inventer Genrator so far.

First generator I bought. It was delivered 2 days earlier than promised. After checking if there were any damage, none. Only one thing I recommend is don't hang the remote control key at the start pulling string, it make me thought the key was missing when I check all the accessories in the accessory box. Fill in the oil, hooking up the battery, connect the propane tank. Following the starting steps, the generator run at the first pushing start button. Checking all the displays at the LED data center, It did not show the remaining run time(F), fuel level(L) because I use propane. It showed Voltage moving between the range of 125V to 120 V when I plug in one medium refrigerator and one small freezer. But the LED data center did not show the power output, it showed 0 KW all the running time (with or without the plugging the appliances) I don't know why (that is why I rate 4 stars). After running 3 hours, I stopped the generator by using the remote control. 20 minutes later, I use the remote key started the unit again ,It worked right away (good). The noise was OK from 67Db to 69Db at 10 feet away and 52Db to 57Db when I was inside the house with the patio door open(about 20 feet away). So, so far so good except the power level display(did not show the output KW). I will try to rerun it 20 days later to see how it happen. I recommended it is worth a try by yourself. If you see it is good for your needs, keep it. If it does not satisfy, you have option to return it (30 days).

I loved this unit so much that I went out and bought a second one, and it has worked flawlessly. I am very happy. This is the dual-fuel model, so I tried it on propane, and the transition from propane to gas worked great also. It is a highly recommended unit.

Very happy thus far!

I would have given it 5 stars but for the "leak" at the carb bowl drain. Upon breaking in the motor, I shut off the engine after 3 hours of run time and stowed it away until I could get back to breaking it in some more. When I went to finish the break-in run, there was a strong gas odor. So, I removed the panel and noticed gas was in the drain hose attached to the carb bowl. I opened the valve all the way and then closed it. A small piece of debris slid down the plastic hose. It hasn't "leaked" since.

iGen4500DF

Purchased for fifth wheel power. Set up straight forward. Read operation manual. Oil came with unit. Filled. Set fuel to gasoline. Propane set up next. Filled gasoline tank. Connected battery. Which had full charge. Turned on, hit starter button started first try. Shut down tried pull start again second pull started. Let it idle 10 min, put lite load from RV all ok. Will load 50% for couple hours then put full load. No doubt it will pull it . Nice and quiet, pull out handle works easy and unit pulls around easily. Has a parts list and diagram of the engine and gen. Parts available. # yr warranty. Will be putting a pvc pipe frame to support a tarp for weather protection. Will carry on a carrier outside on the rear bumper of the 5th wheel. Should last for years. Good little rig right price starts easy variable load will make it efficient the inverter will save the electronics we have, I would recommend the unit.

My second Westinghouse generator

This genertator is exactly as billed. Powerful, reliable and extremely easy to move around thanks to the built-in handle. I am glad I got it. This is my second Westinghouse. My off grid property runs solely on the generator. I have run a heater, microwave, vacuum, and portable AC on it. It works great!

Nice Inverter

Added oil, hooked up battery. Decided to use propane to fuel it - seems to work fine although have not really tested it much yet. All the features seem to work as advertised. Definitely a two person lift at nearly 100 lb. The attached wheels and handle work fine, but it's not meant for rugged terrain. Gave it a 4 star rating as I need to use it more to see how it holds up. Have not used it with gasoline.

Quick start
5 out of 5 stars review

I bought it for my rv but I have many uses for it

I love the remote start. Not just being able to start from my rv but on the farm I put in the back of the pickup with an extension cord and pole saw and trimm the low hanging limbs in my 1/4 mile driveway and power tools working around the farm. The remote start is handy and saves fuel by start and stop when there is a pause in the work. No climbing in and out of the truck bed.

Older woman compatible!

As an older woman living alone, I need reliable power but also need it to be something I can work on my own. I have no experience with small engines, but have set it up and done a trial run to power my home. Yes, I needed some help to learn how, but now I feel confident that I can work it during the next power outage. I'm grateful for the electric start! BTW I store it in my garage and only use propane. An electrician installed an outside plug connected to my home electrical box. I can drag everything outside and plug it in when needed.

Compact and lightweight, quiet generator

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.
