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.

We bought this generator in order to go boondocking in our new travel trailer, diy projects at home and for power outages. Thus far, our main use has been traveling and we love how it uses propane or gasoline. We use it for hours and the propane level hardly moves. We are looking forward to many years of use with this little beauty!

I just bought this generator. I have not used it yet, but it appears to be very solidly constructed. It is every bit of 105 pounds. I like the fact that it can run on propane so I don't have to worry about the fuel going bad. The manual says the first oil change should be after 25 hours, but many people on-line suggest much sooner. Also, it says not to exceed 50% load for first 5 hours of operation. That seems like a long time to break in. I am looking forwarding to testing and having this unit ready for the next power outage. Packaging was damaged, but unit appears to be no worse for wear. Fortunately many on-line have advised to fill the oil reservoir carefully and test frequently to avoid over filling. Will be buying a gen tent to operate on back deck.

I liked my first Westinghouse 4500DF that I bought a second one. I also bought the parallel kit to run them simultaneously for 50 amp service. I haven't run them but based on the obvious quality of the construction and design it was not a mistake. I've recommended this product to friends already!

Just received my IGen4500DF. Generator was well packaged and contained all required items needed (oil, oil filler, battery charger and LP hose and regulator asm) to n xl ding remote. Unit is ready to go after adding oil, plugging in battery and adding gas. Beautiful generator! Hoping it lasts a long time!!

Generator works well, but is heavier and louder than other manufactures. Significantly louder than than comparable models sold at a lower price. Remote start would work nice, but they state not to start the generator in ECO mode. This means you have to walk over to the generator to switch off eco mode to start. Defeats the purpose of having remote start. Probably would have rated 5 star if not for the gimmick remote start. Huge disappointment. Changing oil is messy due to poor drain design. Having a handle is nice, but the pull out design is not very ergonomic. Another manufacture has a fold out handle near the top of the unit. A much better and more useful design.

Bought this to use with a 50 amp generator plug we just had an electrician install. Hoping it will power our central air with a soft start plus a few other necessities. We just went through 5 days with no power prior to receiving. No waiting on the next outage tpo test it out. Impressed with all the features and size. This thing is a beast and if not enough power we can add another iGen to get what we need. Bought for the Westinghouse name. Hope it stands up to my needs for many years to come.

Bought this due to power outages after borrowing friends predator 3500 generator this generator is much quieter starts easier has battery charger remote start fuel gauge and dual fuel predator has none of this and much better wheels and telescoping handle very easy to move around VERY HAPPY

I just purchased the igen4500df and it is perfect for my needs in different applications. It will be used to power RV when needed, but as well at jobsite powering power tools. It is heavy but with built in wheels and handle it will transport easily for social events. It's design is high tech. I look forward to years of use.

Bought this about 18 months ago after moving to the country. Only ran it a bit for testing after receiving it. But, had to pull it out for real use this past weekend. Everything went as needed. Couldn't immediately find the user guide (in the dark), but had adequate instructions on the gen to remind me. Got is situated; few easy steps to start. It took a couple times at trying to start, but then started running on the third try. That was likely due to some stale gas. But then ran it for several hours to power some needed items for family movie night until the power returned. We were just running extension cords to items to power a couple lights, TV, router (somehow still had internet), and the fridge. We had the unit outside on our deck, just 15 feet away from us, and were able to enjoy the movie just fine. Generator was pretty quiet (as desired) and didn't even create much vibration. Very, very pleased. I think we'll be in good shape when a greater need comes along. Tested it tonight with our propane tank and fired right up like a champ. Sounded even quiter on the propane.
