Good Quality to start and very quiet

I only just received this this generator and have done some light break-in with it at this point and testing all the functionality. The build quality is very good and the packaging was great. I have used gas generators for years and this is my first inverter and tri-fuel generator. Looking forward to the use of propane and not having to shuttle gas all the time. Really impressed with how quiet this generator is. I could literally stand within a few feet and have a normal conversation. Time will tell, but I specifically ordered this to charge my Anker Solix F3800s during an extended power outage. The F3800s need clean power which this generator has at <3% THD.

Westinghouse Beast Machine

Purchased online and picked up in the store. Unboxed it, assembled it, connected the battery, and filled with oil. Hooked up propane at first to test it. Wanted to make sure the pull start worked, and after 2-3 initial pulls, it fired right up! Next, I filled it with ethanol free gas, used the push button start, and it fired right up. Tested it with the remote's on/off and it worked like a charm. Let it run for about 30 minutes at idle with no load, then added a small <1kw load for another 30 minutes. Had no issues. Build quality seems SOLID and heavy duty. Hopefully when I need it it will fire up the same and take care of my needs! During the last hurricane a friend let me borrow a small Westinghouse inverter 2,500w I believe and I was impressed how well it worked, how quiet it was, and how little fuel it used to power my outdoor refrigerator and a window AC unit. Figured i'd upgrade with this one, which has 4x the power as I plan to get an interlock kit to plug directly into my home. Initial impression is quite positive!

Well thought out design and quality throughout

I bought a igen5000df digital inverter about a year ago so I can vouch for the quality and low noise level on these machines so I decided to step up to iGen11000 so my neighbors can still be my friends and I will say due to quality it must be made in the USA.

Very Impressed

I've owned a Briggs and Stratton Q6500 inverter/gen for a few years but wanted to upgrade my starting/running watts as well as starting options. I narrowed it down to the iGen11000 or the Champion 11,000 inv/gen. They were fairly comparable but the reason I chose the iGen was the placement of the exhaust as I wanted the control panel facing my garage and the Champion had a side/right facing exhaust. Having the exhaust pointing away from my garage was key. Also, since everybody should perform regular maintenance, having all maintenance points located behind easily removable side panels was also a deciding factor. Once I installled the handle/feet/wheels and gassed/oil it up, I tried out the remote. I was able to start the gen from about 80 feet away inside my upstairs bedroom, which is seriously impressive. This thing is quiet, I mean really impressively quiet for a generator with this amount of power. Measured about 72db standing next to it and about 65 from about 20 feet away, but can't even hear it in the house at all. It's even quieter than my B/S Q6500 with "quiet power technology", so there's that. Love the layout of the control panel as well. Everything just seems to be well thought out on this model. The only minor concern is that the quick start mentions being about to run the float bowl dry by turning the knob to Fuel Off. On other brands/models, when doing this the gen will continue to run for a short while in order to run the fuel out but this model just turns off. There's no way that I can see to run the fuel out before storing it except for manually draining, which I would only do if storing for a long period of time. Not sure what the "fuel off" selection is for as it turns the gen off like hitting the Start/Stop button. But, minor complaint and very happy with my purchase.

Excellent generator and a great value in this size

Pro's: Well built, easy on/off no-tool access panels, starts on 1st try every time, easy assembly, dual fuel is a big plus, oil changes can actually be done without spilling a single drop due to the oil drain tube, air filter is easy to access and the included remote on/off fob is a nice touch. Con's: only minor, for as heavy as this unit is I would have liked a sturdier foldable handle and with the power this unit produces (I wish all manufacturers would incorporate) a bonded/unbonded toggle switch for easy selection between extension cord usage and whole home transfer switch hook up would be useful.

Easy to use with great features!

I purchased this inverter generator earlier this month in preparation for power outages during hurricane season. I spent several weeks researching different models before deciding on the Westinghouse iGen11000DFc. I feel that at this price point, there isn't a better inverter generator on the market with this level of power and features. So far I have been very pleased with how easy the setup was. In spite of it's size, this generator was pretty easy to move around once the wheels and pull handle are installed.
