Love this brand. We also have the 5000 watt model, Had this one for 4 years now as well. always starts, never a problem. Things we love, runs on propane, quiet, remote start, never fails, just love these things. Thought we would try the smaller unit for fun.

Looks very good

Bought based upon positive reviews. Expect it to do well, bought largely due to ability to run off propane as well as gasoline. After unboxing and starting to assemble, pit on legs & wheels, found that bolts (2) for wheels not provided. A call to Westinghouse said the product had to be registered before they would provide the missing bolts for the wheels.

Mobile RV Power

We bought this to power a mobile medical unit turned camper. We needed enough power to run a rooftop AC, microwave, TV, small hot water heater, lights, and battery chargers. The product arrived in great shape. I unboxed and assembled it with the included tools with ease. Followed the instructions for adding oil, connecting the battery and hooking it up to a propane cylinder. 1st start was no problem and it was much quieter that I expected. I powered up some things inside (including the AC) and was amazed that it did not seem to phase this inverter generator at all! Good purchase that we hope will last many years.

General review

Recently purchased and generator appears ti be a great value. Started up with no problems and ran well. Only issue is the placement of the engine oil drain plug. Not sure how to drain the oil since there is a cover under the engine that will be completely flooded with oil. Manual shows a tube extending out from the drain but does not provide any instruction on how it is used and is not included with the generator.

iGen11000DFc

I purchased this generator days before the snow/freezing rain event of January 5 2025. I set it up and connected it to a propane tank, after filling it with the oil provided. Starting the generator was effortless with the electric start and with the remote control fob provided. I connected a portable space heater for load while running. This generator runs smoother and quieter than other smaller generators. It's hard to believe how quiet it is. At this time of writing this review the snow storm wasn't as bad as expected so there wasn't a need for its use.

iGen11000DFc

This is my second Westinghouse iGen. The iGen 5000 works well with my 30amp RV, but I now have one with 2 AC units and the iGen11000 can handle both. The only issue I had with the 5000 was the difficulty reaching the oil drain nut through the small panel. And as far as the 11000, it surprises me it does not have an oil filter. I have not had to change the oil yet as I have not even run it through the break in period. I hope it is much more accessible due to the entire side panel being easily removed.

IGEN 1100 Review

I got this to replace a 17kw non-inverter generator that just uses too much fuel and when I need it, fuel is scarce...storm outage. I am very impressed with everything I've seen so far. It comes very well packaged and with everything needed to do the minor assembly required...and not cheap stamped wrenches, but solid tools. Excellent manual in real english! Started right up and performed perfectly. I can't comment on fuel consumption as we have not had a need so far this hurricane season. I hope we don't. Overall looks like excellent design and quality control. I'm very pleased.

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.

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

Exceptional Quality

The quality that went into the building of this inverter was beyond my expectations. Everything was thought of from the drain tube to the carburetor to the drain hose to the oil plug. Love the no tools needed to remove the side panels. Loved the ease of putting the wheels on. Love the rubber protection around the fuel cap. I like how every bit of information you need about the generator is literally right on top of the inverter. The instruction manual is precise and accurate to the exact model of the inverter. It's rare to find this kind of craftsmanship anymore. Only thing left to do is fire it up, break it in, and prepare for an outage.
