Starts right up

Very happy with this generator, love how easy it is to move around, (I'm 6'2, 230lbs 54yo). Easy to set up and started right up, even with the pullcord. I had to use the pullcord because the battery died quickly; I cant be sure if I somehow left the power button on or if the battery is too small and does not hold up in the winter. For this reason, I purchased a small jumper box to keep inside the home where its warm, to give me peace of mind. But I would purchase again.

Storm Relief

Bought this to use with a 50 amp generator plug we just had an electrician install. Hoping it will power our central air with a soft start plus a few other necessities. We just went through 5 days with no power prior to receiving. No waiting on the next outage tpo test it out. Impressed with all the features and size. This thing is a beast and if not enough power we can add another iGen to get what we need. Bought for the Westinghouse name. Hope it stands up to my needs for many years to come.

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.

Starts right up

Generator started right up on the first try. Instructions could be a little more clear ... seems like a lot of buttons and displays on the generator ... and takes me a while to find everything in the user manual. Quite quiet. Like that I can use propane and not gasoline (which would just clog up the gears and needs additional maintenance every year like my snowblower does.)

Easier to setup and operate than I imagined

This is my first generator and was surprised by how simple and easy it was to set it up and get it running. Instructions were easy to follow, connected propane tank and cranked it up. I ran it for about 30 mins, with a space heater, no problems. Next I plan to run it on gasoline and test the fuel switch over. It is a rather heavy piece, so if you are looking for something more portable, this is not it

Nice so far

Have had unit for 6 weeks now. Doing a gradual break-in. So far the unit is working as it should. Big test will come this winter when we lose power often. Generator starts instantly on gas but has a bit of a problem starting on propane. Am trying to work that out. I would say at this point the unit is as advertised. Big test to come

Great product.

I purchased this to replace a conventional generator I owned that was used to run my whole house minus air conditioner during the frequent power outages we are having. The new generator being an inverter is working better with my sensitive electronics and has had no issue running everything in my house. I would strongly recommend this product to anyone who has sensitive electronics that they would like to run off of a generator.

Worth every penny!

We were in search of a reliable generator after the last hurricane that hit Florida. Although we didn't get a direct hit, it's still caused mass power outages for days. This generator has all of the bells and whistles that we needed for our home. We love the fact it has a remote start and a CO2 sensor. I highly recommend this brand of generators.

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.

Love this inverter generator

I had a Coleman 4000 generator for 25+ years, figured it was time for an upgrade. I chose the Westinghouse iGen11000DFc, Wow! huge power to run my entire home, very quiet, electric start, I run on propane, so no messy smelly gasoline. I love the style, color and features of this model. Everything I need and more in a compact package.
