Nice unit !

So far I like it a lot, just got it & still getting it out of the box. Looking to get the oil & gas in it to see how quite it is compared to my last generator

Nice looking generator!

Still need to do the break-in and use the generator but from a pure options, power, build quality, and looks, it checks all the boxes! Hoping everything works great which I'm sure it will.

Overall great features. Able to run what's needed.

Smaller than I thought it would be. Weight is not too bad. Nice handles for lifting. I enjoy the tri-fuel ability. So far it's able to function and run everything I need it to. Liking it better than my older openframe generator.

Quiet, Clean Power

Am just breaking this in, but so far clean power, pretty smooth running. A little flickering of lights here and there in eco mode, but nowhere near as bad big old 220V generator we had. This is very close to as smooth in performance as the Honda i2000 generators if you are familiar. Running it on propane.

A Very nice generator !

I just bought this generator and, so far, I am pleased with what I have found. I'm running it, on gas, right now to break it in. Good 1.Packing was excellent. 2.Initial start-up was easy and everything worked perfect. 3.Very quiet compared to others I have owned. 4.ECO mode works nicely (rpm varies up and down with load). I have not tried it with other fuels yet but hook-up looks simple. Not so good 1.Manual has info in it obviously for other Models and is missing some info for this unit. It can be confusing. 2.Reattaching the bottom latch on the air filter is tough unless you have little hands. In spite of these little issues I think the generator deserves 5stars. It is very nice in what I consider the important ways.

Portable Power

I just purchased this generator and unboxed to set it up. It couldn't have been easier. I started it, put a small electric load on it to make sure everything was ok, and let it run for 30 minutes. It performed perfectly and is now ready for back up power when we loose electricity to our house. This generator is very quiet and I'm sure my neighbors will appreciate this when I use it.

8200 Tri-Fuel Generator with CO Sensor

Bought this as an upgrade to our 30 year old Yamaha generator. This new 8200 Tri-Fuel Westinghouse Generator is awesome. Set up was easy and started right up. Love the remote start which was pre-programmed and so easy to use! Everything was inc. that was necessary for start up; Oil, oil funnel, tool set, remote w/charger. Battery charger is located in the front of the unit for easy access and shows when battery is fully charged. Also has both a 30 and 50 RV Amp plug in for RV's. Handle and wheels great for moving. Will mostly use fuel, but the ability to use natural gas or propane is a plus and an easy flip of a switch to change. Well thought out design. Great unit and would highly recommend.

Gen8200TFc

We bought this for our 40ft fifth wheel camper with 2 air conditioning units and it powers everything. Overall the generator is very quiet. Our 50 amp cord plugs right into the front of the generator. Also love the easy transport handle to extends out from the front.

Excellent purchase

I just bought this igen11000DFc inverter generator. I'm very impressed with the quality. Came with everything needed to get it assembled and up and running. I paired the remote start to it and it fired up first shot. Ran it for 2 hours today. I need 3 more hours to complete break in. I was kind of surprised by the quietness of it. I thought it would be a little bit louder so that's a plus. I ran it on has today, next time I'll try propane. Overall great purchase and so far I'm very satisfied!

igen 11000DFc

I have a igen4500 and love it. I was looking to use it to run 2 space heaters and a few snake cages during emergencies. I then realized biggest rule for generators is to make sure you don't get one that has to run at 80-100% of full capacity. Not only does fuel efficiency go way down but so does lifespan and noise level of generator. I debates on another igen4500 and parallel them or a Predator 9500. I watched some videos of parallel generators and even though power is there, noise level is much louder than just one big one. I have close neighbors....not worried about bothering them but letting them/anyone else know that I have one. So far this thing is AWESOME! If you have a igen4500 it is just its big brother. I was very impressed on how quiet it is. Also the compartments for adding oil or draining carb are so easy to get to. No nuts to unscrew, just twist the lock and pull clips. The carb already has drain tube and so does oil. After adding oil and non ethanol gas, it fired right up. Still in break in process but 2 hours in and great. Don't pay extra for less rated power from other brands. This has more power and cheaper, looks better and excellent options. I couldn't find any reviews on this model so hope this one helps.
