Reliable each time for me

I have had this a couple of years. Other than letting it sit too long instead of firing it up every month, this has worked great. Last night, with friend in need after no power all day, I pulled it out. Battery was low so didn't crank on the first two starts, but one pull on the crank and it fired right up. Ran all night and just refilled an hour ago. Keeping two freezers and a fridge running and my friend is VERY happy. I bought this for my RV and have run it with AC going at times just to exercise it. Never a problem.

Powerful and compact Inverter Generator

I purchased this unit one month ago and am very pleased at the ease of startup and quiet operation. I recently experienced the first power outage of the winter season which lasted about 5 hrs. The generator worked well and powered my refrig., chest freezer, pellet stove, coffee maker and several lights with no problem. The dual fuel capability is definitely also a plus feature. I have tested the unit on both LP gas and gasoline and it started up and worked perfectly on both!

Works great.

We purchased this generator for our camping trips and for using around the house for projects or when the electricity goes out. I took it out of the box, filled it up with oil and ran it on propane and it started up the first time. I love the remote start. The weight of it isn't to bad for me loading it into the back of the pickup, but my wife said if she had to load it, she would need help. It runs quiet and is much quieter than other generators that were running in the campground. Great product and would recommend.

Great Features for RV's

I recently purchased mine and used it to power my RV. The electric start on it has saved my arms and shoulders the brutal beating most recoil starters give me. The remote makes it even better especially when it is raining and no one wants to go outside to turn it off. The only thing I would like to see in the future is that it be a little bit more compact in size and weight. It be easier to secure in a truck tool box and not be chained down in the back of the truck.

Great RV generator!

Great little quiet generator. Easy to setup. Started up by press of a button once fuel and oil was added. Plugged my 32' travel trailer right in and barely loading it to 50%. Starts up 15k A/C easily. From 20' away barely notice it's running. Dual fuel a real plus.

Everything I wanted and much more in a Generator

I bought the Westinghouse - iGen4500DF about one month ago for the Florida hurricane season, I did a lot of research before buying any generator. The iGen4500DF had all the features I wanted and more. I found it easy to setup and use , I have decided to use it on propene as my primary fuel and gasoline only if I run out of propane. I have tested it on both and it ran perfectly and at full advertised loads also. Its much better and quieter than I Imagined.

Great Size

We have started this up and we are prepared to use it. It's very quiet and the remote start is amazing. As a Texan, who lived through not having power in 2021 winter, we are happy to know we will be able to heat our home and stay connected to news, when this happens again here in Texas. The wheels make this easy to move for us, as older adults, it's a great size for storage.

Great features at a reasonable cost

I bought this generator to power a boat lift on our dock. I looked at a number of other “quiet” generators and felt this model offered the best features at a good price. I haven't used this yet at the dock but set up and started at the house, easy to start and quiet both gas and propane. Remote start an added plus.

Great features.

I bought the IGEN 5000DFC yesterday. I found this unit to provide lots of great features. The multi display is outstanding and provides full status of the unit while operating. The dual fuel option is really a great feature as well. A couple items that I found could be improved: 1) The manual is vague on the operation. Fails to say how to turn the unit on specifically & how to turn it off. I figured it out & its simple.by pushing the round start button to turn on & also to turn it off. 2) Read the manual fully before operating. Fortunately I did this. The unit ships without any fluids in place. Must service the engine oil before you start it. 3) Engine oil service port is small & difficult to get into if you have larger hands. Otherwise, This is a great unit. Quiet and delivers as expected.

Lots of power without the noise

I bought this generator about a month ago and finally got to put it to the test this weekend. I live in FL where we need to be prepared every year for tropical storm and hurricane caused power outages. I've had a Predator 3500 for several years and love it, but it's only 120V. I wanted something that was still relatively quiet but had the power to run my big loads like central AC and stove. To run the AC I first installed a MicroAir EasyStart and it works great! This generator has no problem starting it up along with everything else in the house. Electric start is so easy. You just push the button and it fires right up. If it doesn't start the first time, just wait a second and it automatically tries starting t again. I've only had it for a very short time so I still have lots of testing and break in to do but so far it has been great. The noise level is a little louder than my Predator 3500 but no where near what an open frame equivalent would be. Those can be quite obnoxious in a residential neighborhood like mine. My only complaint is that I wanted to test out the recoil start and the rope knot slipped out of the handle on the 2nd pull. So it's in there somewhere and I have no idea how to disassemble the unit to get it back out. Not cool at all because that's the only way to start it if the battery is dead. Now I need to find out where to get it repaired under warranty. Since they are out of stock everywhere it's not as simple as just returning it for another one.
