This is a perfect inverter for house power backup. The dual fuel option is great! I added a line to connect to my 500 gallon propane tank so as to not have to worry about fuel during an outage. Being the inverter type, the unit is quite and only ramps up when it's needed. Will power everything I need to run!

After hurricane Helene I had plenty of time to research generators while being without power for 9 days. I knew I wanted an inverter generator after borrowing a small one from a neighbor. The igen11000dfc checked all the boxes for me. Quality of the unit after unpacking and assembly is excellent - initial impression. I plan to break it in per instructions, and then see how well it does powering my home.

I had researched and found this was the product which matched everything I wanted, however it was out of stock, with a terrible year for hurricanes and winter coming I didn't expect to get one. Other generators were available but lacked the build quality, price and dependability I had researched. I was prepared to wait and glad I did because a month later this generator was back in stock. Setup was a breeze, started up no problem. The no tool access panels are awesome which will make maintenance a breeze. It's heavy but that was expected, however the handle and wheels maneuver it with ease. I have no more worries for Maine winters, this was my first ever generator purchase and very very pleased. I also purchased the Igen Tent, good to go! The bonus cover will make this product complete

I received this generator and want to say that setup was easy. All tools needed were included and instructions were clear. I've run one hour of breakin so far on Propane and it couldn't have been easier. The one caveat is that examples online show pouring the whole quart of oil in. I only used about 4/5th. There is a note that says there may be a bit of oil left from the factorey test. I checked oil both before and after running and was topped off.

Had trouble with the first start but then realized it's not a auto choke. The generator is far quitter than I ever expected it to be.Ony issue 2 issues I can think of are sort of nitpicks but finding reviews on this specific unit befor buying was very hard to do. It seems like everywhere that sells Westinghouse equipment (Amazon, Lows, Homedepot, etc) all just groups the reviews together. You can look up information on this inverter and you might be reading a review of a completely different unit also the instruction manual that comes with it is not very informative at all and is full of grammar and spellingerrors. As far as the unit, its really better than I expected.

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.

Opening and setting up my Westinghouse inverter generator was a breeze. Yes, Youtube videos help but the instructions that came with it were perfectly well-written and easy to follow: from adding the oil, connecting the battery, and finally starting the generator. There are a lot of instructional warnings and tips and it makes this foolproof! I think I made a great choice. The noise of running it is very acceptable. No hiccups whatsoever, right out of the box!

Bought based upon positive reviews. Expect it to do well, bought largely due to ability to run off propane as well as gasoline. After unboxing and starting to assemble, pit on legs & wheels, found that bolts (2) for wheels not provided. A call to Westinghouse said the product had to be registered before they would provide the missing bolts for the wheels.

I just took delivery of an IGen11000DFc which is an upgrade from an IGen4500. The 4500 ran for 10 straight hours last week without any issue and got us through Hurricane Milton. We upgraded only because we needed 240 volt support to run our new septic pump .Everything was very tidy with the new unit. I like the no-screw side panels which easily come off. The oil drain hose was a pleasant surprise as I had added one to my IGen4500. I hooked up the battery, swapped the spark plug for an NGK and I'll add a magnetic drain plug as soon as it comes in the mail. I've been through 2 hours of no load break in without issue followed by an oil change. Tomorrow will be a partially loaded run. After that, I'll test it connected to the house. We added an Easystart on our AC, so I'm interested to see how the Igen works with it. These inverter/generators rock!

I just completed the break in procedure and I am happy with the unit so far. Its very quiet compared to my previous open frame unit from a different company. Assembly was very easy and straightforward. I will say, your oil level will change as you break in the unit and it tavels within the engine. So check and add some more after about running and letting it rest for about 30 minutes or so. The data center is extremely helpful in gauging where you are in terms of power output. Ill update the review and rating once we get the unit run through its paces but I anticipate nothing but good things based on how the initial setup and break-in went.
