Bought this unit due to excellent online reviews. Need it to power RV on vacant property we purchased. Does so with no issues. Have not tried the propane feature yet but am thinking of permanent mount 100lb tank to minimize fuel transport. Unit is quiet at a distance. I intend to use a home made directional sound box to kick the extra sound out into the woods. Overall pleased with purchase. Would recommend.

I got home took it out of the box and filled it up with oil and gas and two pulls fired right up ran a jigsaw to test to start with, the real test will be in a few weeks when we start using it on the race car trailer! So far so good though I'm very happy with it.

I bought the same model generator six month ago. It was recalled. I returned it per the instructions. A replacement was received within one week! Great service. I like everything about this generator. It does everything it is advertised to do and MORE!! Suggestion for the next version: An oil change is required after the break-in. This should be an easy process but it is a giant PAIN!! The problem is that the oil drain plug is very hard to remove but not impossible. Here is the problem, once that drain plug is removed, it is very, very difficult to thread it back into the drain hole. One cannot get a straight angle on the drain plug to line it up with the threads in the drain hole. It will slip out of your hand and get lost down in the outside (blue) casing. A SIMPLE FIX: The casing access panel should be enlarged so one can get a straight angle on the drain plug to thread it back into the drain hole. PROOF OF THIS PROBLEM: Get the design team to have five engineers remove and replace the drain plug in its present configuration. Better still, use five "administrative" employees to perform this test. It will become evident that a redesign of the access panel is necessary and a simple solution!!

I bought the Westinghouse iGen4500DF for camping and portable power when needed. The box bottom had broken open on delivery but the generator was undamaged. The instructions are easy to understand and the controls are easy to use. The fit and finish is high quality, although I did have two minor issues. The tabs that hold the rubber splash guard around the fuel filler cap were not clicked into place (easy fix as I just pushed them in). Also, the propane hose connector is slightly off center, making it a little difficult to connect the propane hose because the hose fitting binds against the grommet. This is very minor and in no way detracts from the value or usefulness of the generator. After connecting the battery, filling with oil and connecting the propane; the generator started right up! Idle was rough for a little while but then smoothed out. We've only ran the generator for a couple hours but it looks like a winner! It is quiet and everything works great. I especially like the remote start. The generator had no trouble running a small air compressor, router and miter saw at the same time. I've not ran it on gasoline yet but I don't see why it wouldn't run just as well as it does on propane. I am very satisfied with the iGen4500DF and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, full featured generator in its size range.

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.

We bought this unit after waiting for it to be available again , Well worth the wait !! Perfect size, and weight for RV, and home use .Duel fuel option is awesome burns very clean on propane, have not used gas in it yet , will if we need more power. Very quite unit is a huge plus also. Don't forget about Electric Start w/FOB ! GREAT PRODUCT GUYS !

Put oil in, got the battery in, gasoline-instructions were pretty good. Started on the first pull. Did remote start, electric start, and pull cord. all worked flawlessly. Plugged rv into it and ran for a few minutes and everything worked like it should. Will put it to the test next weekend. If everything works like it has so far I'll be even a happier camper than I am now. Haven't tried propane yet, but really have no concern about whether or not it will work on that. Very satisfied so far.

Just bought this generator a week ago and so far so good! Disappointed I had to take the time to adjust the manual choke so the unit would start the first time. Starts without further adjustment since. Looking forward to first camping trip with my IGen4500!

I’ve long had a VERY NOISY generator to use as home back up. So noisy that immediately after power is restored if I don’t turn the generator off immediately i get banged with a list of text requests to Please turn it off from neighbors. The unit arrived on time , no damage. Very easy set up and VERY quite comparatively. Starts very easy and I love the built in battery tender.

Researched the entire market before buying this generator. The Westinghouse was the quietest and had the best warranty. Great price too. Brought the generator home and it started right up after setup. Can't wait for summer to use this generator at the camp ground. This generator is super quiet!
