great performance

I bought this in September 2025, Its now Feb of 2026. So far it has worked great, the oil changes are easy enough with an oil pump as they are frequent (Weekly ) if you live full time in an RV like I do. I love the remote start and I plan to explore AutoStart options with some kits out there. Currently I am in a situation where the pull handle through no human interaction became disconnected 3.5" down on the rope. This was a very loud bang followed by a metal tinkling sound in the generator housing. I have submitted a ticket to Westinghouse on Saturday morning, it's Friday, I am just finally able to register my product tot eh website, and I guess someone will try to help me get it repaired. Overall, I like the design, seems to run well for me at about 3.5Gal per day providing 12-15k watts. Far more efficient than my Onan 5500, but not as quiet. This one isn't bad, it keeps to the low db promise around 60db. It's heavier than you think it is, and after moving it from place to place to fuel up, I moved it near our fuel station and bought the cover. This unit is overall very well designed and it starts with the assembly tools and goes right to teh oil drain, although, that takes a long time, thus the 12v pump.

Solid, well built generator with a lot of features

Purchased as a home back-up generator, while still allowing portability as opposed to a permanent install. The dual fuel feature is great, it can be connected to propane for long term storage, and use gasoline to supplement ahead of a storm. The included battery tender and remote start ensure it is ready and east to have on standby when appropriate. The info gauge is great, provides more info than I expected. It is incredibly quiet. And maintenance/oil changes seem easily accessible due to the built in drain tube and removable panels. Overall, very happy with this so far.

Very versatile

I bought the iGen11000 TFc a week ago and just had it delivered to my house. It came very well packaged and was very easy to assemble. Have not had a chance to use it yet but I love that I can use not only gas but it also works on natural gas and propane. If it powers my house like all the reviews I will be extremely happy.

Great choice for home power backup or large RV.

Bought this for home back-up power after a friend showed me his one day at camp site. I wanted 240 volt option for ease of house hook-up. I've used it once since I purchased in November and it worked flawlessly on propane fuel, powering my home with wood boiler heat, well pump and all appliances during a power failure. Would highly recommend!

Pleased with our purchase so far!

So far so good. We purchased for our mobile coffee business. It is pretty quiet for it's size. Love the remote start! My husband is confused by the power consumption read out as the manual says it read hertz but it definitely doesn't seem like it. All in all, we are pleased so far.

Wow its a tank!

I bought this 2 months ago and as soon as I did, my power outages stopped. I think the generator made the power supply gremlins afraid of it! Seriously though, this thing is a LOT bigger than I thought it would be, BUT it is actually pretty easy to move and store once it is set up. The set up was very easy and well thought out. The engineering behind the setup really shows it is designed to be as easy as possible. My electrician is coming this weekend to add an outdoor inlet plug and system lockout. Hopefully I never have to use it, but I am thankful for the peace of mind owning my new generator.

Great unit-nice operating and maintenance features

Just bought this and ran it for 2 hours to break in. Very impressed. All tools needed to assemble are high quality. Easy assembly. Much quieter than a regular generator, stable power, on-off switches/breaker for the 30R and 50R receptacles, covers for receptacles, remote start, displays gas fuel level and estimate of run time remaining. Also many nice features for ensuring it will work when needed and to ease maintenance such as included batter tender and port, attached oil drain hose, attached carburator bowl drain hose. Only minor complaint is that the wheels could be a little wider to ease rolling on my gravel driveway.

iGen11000TFc Inverter Generator

Packaging was excellent which gave confidence nothing was damaged. The generator was easy to assemble. We bought this to potentially be a whole home backup for power outages here in PA. It's easier to move around than I thought it would be with the never-flat wheels & the foldable handle. Looking forward to getting through the break in period to see how it handles our geothermal system.

Tri Fuel Rocks!

Just purchased. Got everything hooked up to run on natural gas and so far I've just tested with NG. Looking forward to not having to worry about getting/keeping fuel and it going stale or gumming up the carb. I'm also happy to have the option for propane and gasoline in the unlikely event that NG is disrupted.

Keep discovering more features

We are pleased with our purchase. The generator is loaded with thoughtful features. We are especially happy it came with a battery charger we can leave plugged in since we live in a bitter cold northern climate. We haven't had to rely on the generator yet, but I feel confident in its build quality.
