Powerful pure energy in a compact package.

After months of research I purchased the WESTINGHOUSE11,000-Watt Electric Start Gasoline and Propane Inverter Generator with CO Sensor, Dual Fuel. I selected it because of its wattage and compact size. Further, I like the dual fuel feature for versatility during a significant crisis. I selected the inverter generator because it provides purer energy that will not damage my sensitive electronics. I'm happy to report that after assembly and adding the provided oil, I was able to start the generator using propane fuel on the first try. I am really impressed at its low running volume. I have greater peace of mind knowing my inverter generator is at the ready in the event I need it to provide power to my home.

So far, So good with one small quirk.

Assembled and started up first try. Quiet and stable running for this size equipment. Appears good quality. Average set of instructions. Only quirk I have found is that after starting with auto start and shutting down, it would not start with the manual pull cord. Tried numerous times. I found that after charging the battery to capacity, it started first pull. My thinking is that pull starting should be the work around for a dead battery. A generator should not require a charged battery to pull start. Maybe I need to review the instructions.

Quiet with lots of power!

I bought this generator a little over a month ago after I saw it advertised. I am so impressed with the relative quietness of this unit with this much power. With an EasyStart soft starter I had no problem using this to run my 3 ton AC compressor as well as just about everything else in the house. Having an auto-chock with remote start makes it so easy for my wife to start if needed, which is a huge plus when I'm away on business. I'm very pleased with my purchase and now I'm tempted to buy another one for the parallel capabilities, if I can only find one in stock! I think these are very popular right now because of the combination of power and quietness at this price.

Awesome piece of Kit

Just puchesed for home emergency use (I live in Florida). Powers my whole house with the exception of the high draw appliances (stove, oven, Hot water heater) at the same time. If I want to use the high draw items I simple turn off other circuits to use them, then switch back after usage is complete.

IGEN1100 DFC

The Generator came early and was in perfect shape. unboxed and setup was easy. I ran several tests on propane and it was quiet and ran my house as needed. I would like a little more info in the manual---Battery type/ expected life span would be nice. This unit is for those random power outages. I have already recommended this unit to my friends

Easy Setup, quiet

Took about an hour to set, mainly because I had to remove some of the oil before starting it up. The oil you get is 1.1L which is the same oil capacity listed in the specifications. However, using the dipstick, it appears you should only put just a tad more than a liter in the crack case otherwise oil will flow out of cap. Started up on the first try and is very quiet when running with little to no load. This was a big concern of mine when thinking about purchasing a generator as the house next store is only 25 feet away. Very happy with ease of set up and operation.

Works like a Charm!

Was going back and forth between a conventional and inverter generator and so glad I went with the inverter. Generator is super quiet and has a ton of power to run the house essentials when I need it to. Electric start is awesome and the low THD is awesome for my smaller electronics. Worth every penny in my opinion!

iGen11000DFc

Just recently purchased the iGen1100DFc and all is well... works flawlessly and quieter than expected. I am able to supply power to my whole home through a 30-amp interlock switch at my main panel. All my major appliances as well as lights and plugs are all operational. I do have gas heat but use an electric range. Some discretion on heavier loads operating simultaneously is advised. Will definitely not use the range and electric dryer at the same time.

Solid Build Quality. Great Performance

I researched generators and if you want an inverter whole home backup then this is the one. Like I said in the title it's built well and the manual is super clear and helpful. Picked up a magnetic oil plug and instructions say to use the oil they give you for the break in period. Going to be firing it up soon but on paper this gen is the best value. Plan to run on propane as it leads to less maintenance, easier to prep for long storage and propane doesn't go bad.

Good Value

I bought this to use as a back-up for my whole house. It will not power everything but should power the necessities. So far I have ran it for the break in and then drained all of the gas out. It started and ran great on gas and propane. I have floated the neutral and should have it wired into the main panel soon and will begin testing capabilities.
