Inverter generator

I’m so happy with this purchase easy setup. Easy instructions I love everything about this best generator out there especially with the historic name of Westinghouse they know how to build generators. My family has piece of mind if our power goes out we never have to worry again

Quality Quality Quality

Talk about quality! The tools provided for simple wheel and handle installation are good enough for my toolbox! I purchased the iGEN11000 Inverter Generator and am very please with the quality fittings, electronics and everything you need to power up and get going when the lights go out.

must have features at a decent price point

This is an upgrade from my present generator. This Westinghouse iGen11000DFc includes the must haves of: an inverter which makes it safe for many electronics, including tv's computers, refrigerators, and my new heating sys. with smart control board. The dual fuel and the extra wattage is just right for me.

So far, so good

After looking at a variety of generator brands, I decide the iGen11000DFc gave me what I wanted at the right price point. It was easy to setup and I've tested it using gasoline, a 20lb propane tank, and my 250 gal propane tank (I had a plumber set that up). I filled it with the oil that came with the generator, replaced the oil dipstick with a magnetic dipstick from GenExhaust, ran it for 30 minutes on gasoline and then 30 minutes on propane, and then changed the oil to a 5W-30 synthetic.

Awesome Generator

This generator is fantastic. It’s well built. Extremely quit and easy to use. The included tools make it simple to put together right out of the box. I’m still in the break in period but overall I’m really impressed. Going from a propane Generac open frame to this generator is the difference between night and day. This one will power everything in my large house. Not sure yet if it will power my Lennox XC21 4 ton AC unit but I’m going to have an HVAC guy see if it can. Might need a different start capacitor on the AC but we shall see.

So easy to use!

I bought this for an emergency backup generator. Thankfully haven't had the need for it yet, but I think it'll more than power what we need. I wanted a generator that would be easy enough for my wife to start if I weren't home. The power button and remote make starting this thing a snap. Everything is so well labeled, also, that it'd be impossible to make a wrong connection. So far I've only ran it on propane, and just enough to get through the initial 4 to 5 hour break-in period. I've changed the oil twice, per recommendations, and both times it remained very clear. During the break-in period I ran my table saw, some fans, and a shop vac. It powered them all without problem. It's very heavy, but doesn't seem so with the wheels and handle. It was very easy to move around. Runs much more quietly than I was expecting. When used as a backup generator outside our house, I don't think we'll hear it at all inside the house.

iGen11000DFc

This is my second Westinghouse iGen. The iGen 5000 works well with my 30amp RV, but I now have one with 2 AC units and the iGen11000 can handle both. The only issue I had with the 5000 was the difficulty reaching the oil drain nut through the small panel. And as far as the 11000, it surprises me it does not have an oil filter. I have not had to change the oil yet as I have not even run it through the break in period. I hope it is much more accessible due to the entire side panel being easily removed.

Easy Assembly, started right up

I havent put it underload just yet, but the assembly was easy and it started easily. In reading the manual I did opt not to use the supplied oil, as our low temps can easily be below 20 degrees Fahrenheit. I opted for this model because it is an enclosed inverter generator, while it is true we have whole house surge protection, the idea of having <3% THD is attractive to protect the many electronic boards in some of the strangest places in the house :)

Nice and Quiet Powerhouse !

This generator is great! Ran it for the 5 hour break-in period and was surprised how quiet the inverter is compared to other generators I’ve had in the past. It handles loads well with varying speeds. The digital read out is really nice. And the remote start feature is handy. Assembly is simple and everything comes in the box. I’m happy with this purchase.

All the features I wanted

I live in SE Michigan, and we loose power on a regular bases. Have an old 5000 watt gen. Wanted something bigger to run the whole house, clean A/C voltage, dual fuel option, electric start. My shoulder is not what it used to be. When I purchased gen. battery was not charged enough to start gen. But pull starting was still easier than my old one. Went thru break in period, then powered house. Happy so far. Now only need to put in a transfer switch, that will tie in my AC. Then really put a load on the gen. and see how she does. I know the wife will be happy to have AC when we loose power in the summer.
