Opened the box, reviewed the Start-up procedures, started it up and ran straight away! I researched for this product for a while. I love that it is dual fuel. I use mainly LP when traveling in our trailer. I hate to carry gasoline inside the tow vehicle with kids. Can't wait to take it on the road next month!

Bought this generator and was looking forward to all of it features but reading the manual they indicate you need a high elevation kit above 5k. It calls for two part numbers that are impossible to find. Contacted Westinghouse 3’times and no response!

Bought it at the start of the month and since then had a few major storms roll through the area leaving us without power for a several hours a couple times now. With this generator everything was covered - from a fridge and freezer, to some electronics that needed power. It was a perfect price for a great product when it was needed most!

We had a very specific list of "must haves" for our new generator. We already have one for our home. This one is for our new travel trailer. It it our intention to do more dry camping, so a good genny is the place to start. Back to my list: - We definitely wanted a dual-fuel generator. We do so much with LPG in the RV, it just made sense that a propane-fired generator would work well with our set up. - We needed a smaller, more manageable size for a not-so-young-anymore couple. I was hoping for less than 100 lbs. Since we're going to have to haul that thing around, the open-frame type was out of the question. This one comes in at a close 98 lbs. But it has that great luggage-style, pull-out handle! On a flat surface, it only takes ONE of us to move it around! - For the same reason, we needed more than just the recoil-start option. I am so done with pull-starting everything. With the push-button start, as well as a remote, this certainly fit the bill. (Although, if one must shut off the battery and close the propane valve, I suppose the remote control option is only good for the gas-powered starts?) - Must provide "clean" power - we've got sensitive electronics in that RV. - Speaking of that, the 30 amp RV receptacle was definitely on our list. Who wants to be fussing with adaptors and additional cords? - Our rooftop A/C unit takes the most power of everything in the RV. The generator needed to have at least enough power to fire that baby up when it gets too hot outside. This one has MORE than enough power for that.... even at the initial start-up! The Eco-mode is a nice feature, as well, for keeping the normal power draw to a minimum. This leads me to... - Last, but certainly not the least important box to check, the generator needed to be as quiet as we could get, while still checking off all of the above boxes. I gotta tell you, we just got this genny yesterday, and we've only started it twice. But, HOLY QUIET, BATMAN!!! My neighbor was blowing his leaves and when we stood in the street, our new generator was literally unheard over his blower. Really. Oh, and it started on the first push (NOT pull!) after installing the battery, adding oil, and hooking up the LP tank. All of our boxes were checked off with our new iGen4500DF, so I checked off all the stars. I don't anticipate any problems in the future. But if they happen, I'll update. Happy camping!

I bought this Inverter/Generator primarily to power a pellet stove in the case of a power outage. The pellet stove requires clean power in order to not enter auto shutoff mode, so I selected the iGen4500DF for this application. The generator started right up, is VERY quiet (in comparison to other generators I've heard), and the clean power runs my stove perfectly. So far this thing is great, and I can recommend it to those looking for such a unit.

Chose to have delivered to homedepot instead of house, feel like less chance of damage from rushing delivery people. Ran on both gas and propane. No issues with the engine or the power output. Gauges seem to be off though. Was indicating empty tank and zero time left to run but still ran over an hour before I finally shut it down manually. Remote seems to have stopped working but they do include remote reset instructions. Changing oil is challenging if you have big hands. Also a bit messy, take lots of precautions like extra rags and cover everything plus make a homemade funnel to insert under drain hole to help contain oil flow. If you've changed the oil on this model then you know exactly what I'm talking about. Overall satisfied with purchase and hope I never need to use for main intended purpose, blackout.

Generally I think 5 star reviews are worthless, go to the 1 stars to get the dirt. That said we got this for the quiet factor, and it is relatively speaking. It is far quieter than my larger open frame. When we lose power and want the ac I went to the room where we would run a window shaker, the ac drowned out the generator could not hear it run. Set up was easy, ran it on propane. Pushed the start button, it ran for a second or so, nothing. Pushed start again, fired right up. Learned that the generator needed to be off the eco mode for the ac (8000 BTU) to work. Would love to update after a full test but if we'd have to wait for another hurricane, no thanks.

Recently purchased to use on RV. Remote start and dual fuel options were some of the reasons I bought this unit. Eco feature and light weight were also a plus. Propane regulator, oil, funnel, tool kit were included. All that was needed was fuel. Very pleased with purchase so far!!!

I bought the iGen4500DF for two main applications. 1) To power our off grid barn and 2) to power our RV when we are boon docking. It works perfect in both applications. Very quiet in eco mode, the dual fuel lets me run off the propane already carried for our RV, and the remote control start lets me power on the lights before I get in the barn.

I just received my IGEN4500DF today followed prestart instructions filled with oil connected battery and propane unit fired right up no issues. Connected to my travel trailer tested the AC my no problem starting up my 15,000 btu unit. My main reason for buying this unit was the key fob remote and propane options. However this unit has become very popular so if you want one get it while they are in stock and shop around for the best price.
