Everything about this generator is well thought out and convenient to use. It comes with everything you need to get up and running, including tools (actual hefty tools, not those cheaply made and hard to use things you normally find included with things), a bottle of oil, and a battery tender/charger that you can use to keep the battery topped off when not in use. There is even a port on the front panel to plug the charger into so you don't have to fuss with connecting it directly to the battery. It's so convenient. My generator worked flawlessly out of the box, and I haven't been disappointed with anything about it so far. Only time will tell how well it holds up, but my initial impressions are that it is a great value.

Just received my IGen11000DFc. Took less than a 1/2 hour to unbox, put the handle and wheels on add oil, connect the battery. Was going to charge the battery but decided to give it a try and there was enough power to fire up. It is actually quieter than my 5200W open frame. I like the duel fuel option and will be trying it on propane at the cabin this spring. It will be used for backup power at the house for winter.

I just bought this, put 1.1L of oil (1.2L oil provided) in it, filled the gas tank and it started immediately. It is so much quieter than my old Generac. The provided connections include 2 standard 3 prong 120VAC sockets on a GFCI, a 30VAC and a 50VAC. Remote control start, push button start and pull start backup. I don't have a lot of time running it yet but it loaded up fine and I'll have a lot less concerns about losing power from the tall trees, high winds and rain soaked ground of the Pacific Northwest.

I picked up the iGen111000DFc. It was in a box on a small pallet. The packaging was sufficient, and assembly was quick and easy. After running through the initial break in run I connected this to my house propane tank and RV plug that goes to the electrical panel. I flipped the lockout on the breaker panel and tested it powering the house. It runs everything well without bogging down. I previously calculated the total necessity load on the panel, and it is a little under 8kW with everything intended on. So it works for me. We already had a power outage just weeks after getting this set up. It was quick and easy to power on, switch over the breaker, and back to having power in the house.

I bought this generator about a month ago and finally got to put it to the test this weekend. I live in FL where we need to be prepared every year for tropical storm and hurricane caused power outages. I've had a Predator 3500 for several years and love it, but it's only 120V. I wanted something that was still relatively quiet but had the power to run my big loads like central AC and stove. To run the AC I first installed a MicroAir EasyStart and it works great! This generator has no problem starting it up along with everything else in the house. Electric start is so easy. You just push the button and it fires right up. If it doesn't start the first time, just wait a second and it automatically tries starting t again. I've only had it for a very short time so I still have lots of testing and break in to do but so far it has been great. The noise level is a little louder than my Predator 3500 but no where near what an open frame equivalent would be. Those can be quite obnoxious in a residential neighborhood like mine. My only complaint is that I wanted to test out the recoil start and the rope knot slipped out of the handle on the 2nd pull. So it's in there somewhere and I have no idea how to disassemble the unit to get it back out. Not cool at all because that's the only way to start it if the battery is dead. Now I need to find out where to get it repaired under warranty. Since they are out of stock everywhere it's not as simple as just returning it for another one.

So far the generator showed up in excellent condition and was very easy to assemble; the few ergonomic items so I could get it out of my truck. Already looks like it’s going to be easy to operate and large enough for my needs. as a previous Westinghouse customer. I don’t doubt that I’ll be impressed with this one.

My first Inverter Gen. I researched the competition and the Westinghouse team designed and built a great GenSet. This unit is quiet and operates flawlessly. The controls are thoughtfully designed. The built in meters help in verifying power output. The built in oil drainage hose will make periodic maintenance a breeze. I recommended this to my family members. And another was purchased immediately! Great job Westinghouse engineers and Design Team!

This Inverter Generator met the exact requirements I needed and wanted for Backup Generator support for my EG4 6000XP Solar Inverter Charger. the iGEN11000 has 8100 Running watts on LPG what I prefer to use and actually set up the generator charge parameters in the EG4 for 2500 watts. That is all that is needed to keep that batteries charged via the EG4 inverter into my 48Volt Battery Bank with my house loads online in grid down situation. At that output level this generator just purrs and is running at about 1/3 to 1/2 power and its quiet and super efficient this way. I have tested it and run it weekly for exercise and it has been flawless. The Features that were required for me were that its an inverter and has the ATS 7 pin Avionics connector to interface to my 2 wire gen controller as the EG4 has a single 2 wire relay closure for call for gen. Not requiring unscrewing the front panel cutting or splicing into the wiring harness to get the gen controller wired in, all necessary wires are in the ATS Smart Switch ready connector on the front panel. The other important factor is a Great American Company that produces Westinghouse out of Ohio engineers this and yes it is made in Vietnam but what products are made in the US these days. I am very impressed with the quality of build and I am an electrical engineer. Things you are required to do is if this will be wired into your home service panel is you have to get into the generator panel of the Westinghouse and make the modification to break the Internal Ground/Neutral bond but this is no different than what is required on most generators of this size. My personal review and perspective, Great/Inverter and Quiet Generator! I feels of quality. Just Buy one!

I researched generators and inverters for 2 months. I had a very tight set of requirements: output, operation, fuels, sound level, bang for my buck and a lot of happy owners. I looked different websites and sources. The result: Westinghouse was always in the top three. Choosing this Westinghouse inverter was the best solution for my needs.

I like the generator and have it set up to supply a plug that then feeds the house through a transfer switch. Easy to set up and refuel. Very quiet when running. The reason I gave it a 4 instead of 5 is I would prefer a key to the toggle switch, to easy to forget to shut off and it will drain the battery.
