Works Great!

New Generator works great right out of the box. Easy set-up. Even though instructions say to fill the oil tank with provided bottle, watch out for small over pour. No problem running our Travel Trailer AC unit on either propane or gas. Need to put more hours on it, but so far its Awesome!

Seems well built

Just received the generator today. Purchased this unit for camping and home back-up after much research. It as enough wattage for what we need. The packing was very secure. I had to hunt for the remote starter as it was not in the box with the oil, tools and funnel. It was attached to the starting cord. Looking forward to using it.

Great value

Purchased this about a week ago. Arrived in good condition and fired right up out of the box on both gasoline and propane. Ran for 5 hour break in as recommended with no issue. Runs very quite. So far works as it should and has all of the features I was looking for at a great price. Would recommend so far!

Surprisingly quiet

I got this for home use. It arrived in good shape, with everything in the box that was supposed to be there. I added oil and (as noted in the instructions) there was some left in it so it didn't quite take the whole bottle. It started on the second try using propane and first try each time after that. I was expecting it to be quieter than my 20 year old open frame generator, but it was much quieter than what I had hoped for. It got as little louder with a 1200 watt vacuum cleaner connected and not in eco mode, but still very reasonable. At that load, you can stand 5 feet away with that load and have a conversation without speaking loudly. I haven't tried a larger load yet, but I doubt it will be annoying like the old generator.

Exactly what I expected!

This generator works great! I use it with my small RV trailer. It runs everything just fine. It will struggle a little if I run the AC and the microwave at the same time. I run it with propane only. It has never had gasoline in it. The remote start is a huge bonus. I can start the generator from inside my trailer. With my previous generator, I had to unplug everything before I shut it off and replug after I started. This is definitely a hassle. With my new Westinghouse generator I simply shut it off and start it up. No plugging and unplugging. I do however turn all the the appliances, AC, ect. off before starting and stopping.

Quiet

Took a while to get in stock and then waited a couple of days and it was out again. Fortunately I received an email notifying me that they were back in stock and ordered right away. I picked it up and setup in pretty short order as I was familiar from researching and watching some of the video on line. Using propane it started on the second try. The engine loped a bit at first but settled down once it warmed up a bit. seemed to handle a load OK I haven't tested it on anything other than a heat gun and some fans. Waiting to get my RV back (if I ever do) from Forest river who've had it for over three months before I can try it on that. Surprisingly quiet, I don't think the videos accurately depict the noise. Mine seems to be much more quiet than what I expected from the videos.

Super quiet and efficient! Runs my 13,500 BTU AC!

This is the second Westinghouse inverter generator that I've purchased. First one is a WH2000iXLT that I use around the farm for running power tools as needed. Was so pleased with the quality that I bought the iGen4500DF to run the AC in my horse trailer. The generator's extremely quiet (and efficient!). Can start it with the remote & run it off of gas and when empty, switch it over and continue running on the propane bottles. Great value! You get a lot for your money with this unit.

Quick starting review

Writing this as asked to get a cover for the unit. I just started it up using Gas to do a quick check to make sure it was running before a storm hits and knocks out power. The unit shipped with oil and indeed didn't need the full bottle as there was some remaining from factory. The unit seems definitely quiet under no / light load so far in testing and I didn't run it long enough to check the eco mode as starting it normally showed about a 10.5hr run time off a close to full tank of gas. Looking forward to also checking the propane connection when needed.

Great All Purpose Genset

I purchased the Westinghouse iGen4500DFc unit after completing a very complete market evaluation. The unit has everything I need for a back up Genset for our home and for dry camping in our trailer. Being able to add a second unit to increase the system overall power output make this ideal for later updates. Very easy to set up and maneuver on hard surfaces. Remote start is very nice and the noise level in operation is within what I consider the acceptable range. Propane consumption has been nominal during our usage.

1st iGen4500DF Runs Great on Gasoline - Purchased

I bought my 1st iGen4500 in January 2021. The generator runs very quietly and provides enough power for our travel trailer. The only issue that I have is that I can’t get the generator to run on propane even after I ensured that the system was purged of all gasoline and the selector switch was set appropriately. Today was the first time I attempted to run the generator on propane with no success. I went through the troubleshooting procedures several times with no success, but I switched back to gasoline and it runs fine. Today (2/19/2022) I have contacted Westinghouse to find out how this issue can be resolved along with the current recall that I just found out about. Hopefully Westinghouse’s customer service is good and we can get everything taken care of. I would love to provide a update to my review after we get these issues resolved. I have faith that they will make things right. Don’t get me wrong, I believe this is an excellent generator that runs very quietly even with the issues that I am currently experiencing. I liked it so much, I purchased a second one last week along with a parallel cable so I can use the generators together during a power outage. I would recommend this generator to anyone. I have started our second iGen4500DF for the first time today using propane and it runs great.
