Powerful pure energy in a compact package.

After months of research I purchased the WESTINGHOUSE11,000-Watt Electric Start Gasoline and Propane Inverter Generator with CO Sensor, Dual Fuel. I selected it because of its wattage and compact size. Further, I like the dual fuel feature for versatility during a significant crisis. I selected the inverter generator because it provides purer energy that will not damage my sensitive electronics. I'm happy to report that after assembly and adding the provided oil, I was able to start the generator using propane fuel on the first try. I am really impressed at its low running volume. I have greater peace of mind knowing my inverter generator is at the ready in the event I need it to provide power to my home.

Whole House Back Up

I purchased this generator right before Beryl hit and it helped us get through the few hours we had without power. We were one of the lucky ones here in Texas to not have to go days without power. I loved the ease of everything from starting to draining the oil. Especially draining the oil. Westinghouse makes it very easy. This generator is a bit on the heavy side but for what can do it's well worth it.

Awesome Generator

Houston was hit with Hurricane Beryl and I needed a bigger generator. This generator was so easy to operate and large to power almost my whole house (except HVAC). The plastic cover with no tool needed to removed was so convenience. I can wait to make more use of it on the next power outage.

Has a 50 amp outlet

I was looking for a dual fuel inverter generator that had a 50 amp outlet, and this seems like it fills the bill. We had an inlet and interlock installed on the side of our house by an electrician so that we can plug it into the house during a power outage. We did have an initial problem getting it to start, but it turned out that the propane tank was defective. It started using another propane tank. We are still doing the break in period, so I can't comment on usage in an actual power failure.

Powerful and quiet generator

This generator runs smoothly and quietly. It was very easy to assemble with two people and the push-button start with autochoke is awesome. The 10w/30 oil that came with it is not rated for cold climate and must be replaced with 5w/30. The engine is large so pull-starting was far from easy, but a strong adult can do it. The battery is undersized, so be prepared to find an outlet nearby to charge the battery so you can use the electric start. If the battery is charged, this generator fires up immediately and starts producing very good power. Enough power to run all of our appliances, including our well pump, and charge our large 48v battery bank. Very happy with this Inverter Generator!

Great Build Quality

Just put this together, the legs, wheels, and handle, I was amazed that everything needed for assembly was included, wrenches, oil, and even a funnel was provided. Unit started up and is quiet for its size. I recommend this unit and would buy again.

Impressed so far

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.

Worth the Wait!

After another hurricane and another extended power outage we knew that it was time to upgrade our existing generator. After a lot of research and customer satisfaction we decided on the iGen11000DFc. It seemed that a lot of people had come to the conclusion at that same time because the unit became out of stock. After waiting for about a month with daily checks it became available and we placed our order. After picking the unit up I got it home and began the unboxing and assembly. Everything was packaged very well and every tool that you need for assembly is included. The instructions are clearly written, easy to understand and complete assembly took no more than 10 minutes. When filling the oil (which is included) you will need a funnel. This surprised me since EVERYTHING else that you need is included but this is a minor thing. After assembly I rolled it into position (it rolls very well), attached the propane and fired it up. It is so much quieter than what we have become accustomed to - and now with it being an inverter I have no qualms with letting it run all night to keep up with a diminished power demand. I am not looking forward to losing power again but a part of me is looking forward to putting this iGen11000DFc to work when it does.

Seems more than sufficient

Purchased this generator after our last power outage. House is on a well pump and multiple days have having to flush the toilet with bottles of water are now over. I can have the furnace in in colder months instead of trying to use various ways to keep warm.

Works seamlessly and charges my EV

I bought this to replace an open frame generator that was not compatible with my Ford F150 Lightning due to higher distortion. This one started right up, I plugged it in to the truck with the charger set to 32A and it works like a charm, and it will also be large enough to power my whole house including heat pumps when needed.
