Largest and best inverter generator

There are not many inverter generators this large, and this had all the features and a good quality reputation, at the best price. I wanted an inverter unit because it wouldn't damage electronics - but more importantly is more fuel efficient and quieter.

Powerful Inverter Generator

Seems well made. I like that an Automatic Transfer Switch ("ST" optional unit) can be easily added. Added oil, but the flexible funnel that was supplied has smaller size threads that won't screw into the oil fill opening..... Nice that two quality wrenches were supplied with the unit, to attach the wheels, legs, and handle. Started right up on gasoline, ran some break-in time using two 1500W heaters. Seems to be pretty quiet for such a large generator. Have not yet tried propane. A Parts diagram was supplied, noticed that this engine has a balance shaft, and an oil pump. I suppose, because of the pump, it has forced lubrication (versus splash), which is a nice feature. The Parts diagram is missing the piston and connecting rod, it needs updating.

Great generator.

Out of the box this is a great looking generator. It comes with everything you need to put together and get it running. From all the wrenches, oil, propane line and regulator. Instructions are easy to follow and had mine set up and running in 30 minutes. Pretty quite. Can have a conversation with someone as close as 5 feet away. Very impressed.

Everything you could want

Did a ton of research on inverter generators. This was has it all. Easy to put together . Easy to start. This 1100 watt inverter is perfect to run everything needed in an emergency. Installed a generator plug and transfer switch on my home. You won't be disappointed with this generator.

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.

iGEN11000DFc INVENTOR (Big Blue)

Wanted a big whole house/emergency power inventor generator with low THD and this fit the bill. Doing the initial 5 hr break in now. For a big generator its pretty quiet, you can carry on a conversation near it and still be heard. Oil spigot will not thread into oil pan, small annoyance. Tires are on the small side, maybe an issue moving across yard or bare ground. Overall I think this will be a great emergency back up generator with enough power to run my whole house. Nickname = Big Blue.

iGen11000DFc - WOW, what a beast!

I kept looking at the different options and decided to go with the Westinghouse iGen11000DFc because of the reviews. And needless to say, it blew my mind! I tried it on with gasoline and propane and am now ready for Florida's next hurricane-season power outages!

Huge, heavy, and super quite!! This is well built!

Unboxed and installed the wheels, front legs, and handles, this has to be done before adding oil!! Once you get it upright on its on its wheels and feet, you can add the supplied oil. This comes with a small tube/funnel to use to fill the oil and all the tools you'll need to assemble it. they aren't cheap flat metal tools either! The side panels have sound deadening foam and it really works, this was so quiet when it was running. I used LP gas out of a 20lb bottle to get it started and ensure it works out of the box. I connected a compressor up to it and let it go. Barely even acknowledge the load from the compressor. With LP gas, expect it to take a second time to start due to the priming. I am beyond and impressed with this, I am looking forward to losing power now just to let this thing power my small house!

Gotta love the remote start

Super easy to assemble and get the unit up and running. I've already had the unit running for 6-7 and working great. The electric start works every time and having the remote super great. After looking at several other units I decided on this one and I'm glad I did.

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.
