11000 GENERATOR TRI FUEL

Have not really used it, but tried the remote start and you have to turn on the battery switch on the generator first then you can walk 20' away and push the remote start. Makes NO sense. If you leave battery switch on the battery goes dead, or worse yet the circuit board burns out. Will do another review after I really get to use it.

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.

Awesome generator

Just bought this generator after the 2026 ice storm where we were without power for 5 days. Have a couple of smaller generators we used to power heaters, charge phones, etc. plan for this one is to add the connections to be able to selectively run all critical circuits during power failures.

Whole home generator for a fraction of the cost!

Fast shipping. Easy to set up. Remote start keeps you inside nice and warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Hooked up to natual gas for never ending power. Quick visit from an electritian and we are set to power the entire home. Happy wife, happy life.

So far so good

Just got my iGen11000TFc. So far I just have 1 hour of break-in time on Propane. It is quieter than the Generac open frame generator it is replacing. It is also physically smaller even though it puts out 33% more running watts. It will run my recently replaced deep well pump & new furnace both of which are full of electronics. That is something my older Generac would not do and why I am replacing it. I guess that inverter technology is necessary today. I am taking off a star because it came with a damaged bolt to assemble the handle, a missing clip for the cover and a vacuum hose that is kinked because it is too short. I haven't dealt with customer service yet. Also, I wanted to order some replacement parts and several were out of stock like the spark plug, fuel filter and spark arrestor... the stuff you want to have on hand for just in case.

Looks like a good generator

Seems to be well built, great manual with plenty of operation info and maintenance info. We are looking forward to starting Generator later today and see how well it works for backup power

Don't start o. Gasoline

This model in particular has issues with starting the generator on gasoline, it starts ok on propane, I would recommend this product after we get it fix.

Ran great, until it didn't

Ran for about 40 hours on gas (1st oil change @ 6 hrs, 2nd oil change @ 30 hrs). Then just stopped @ ~ 40hrs. Will try to start, but OL lights up with everything disconnected, then s/d instantly.

Out of the box no real hours yet

Pros: Quiet, compact many features starts easily Cons: Low ground clearance due to short stabilizer feet and small "mower-like" wheels, which anticipate having problems moving it out of garage in any amount of snow. No way to keep Igentent cover on and use the handle which is ridiculous. Unit should have support side bars for cover that wont interfere with gauges muffler or handle! Kevlar strap covers muffler as no way to put lower due to taper of housing. Manual not accurate of many counts, No oil drain nut to remove has attached hose with plastic cap tucked behind wiring. Oil fill funnel has threads which are useless as wrong threads requires holding tight to avoid leaks. Total gasoline capacity in instructions says "1.1 liters" really? Battery indicator light simply displays on no way to tell if low. Rubber caps to protect outlets not heavy duty and require pressing from top to bottom carefully to ensure proper fit. After adding more hours to united connect it to power inlet box will update

Amazing Generator

I bought this on Dec 2 and received it on Dec 4 via a semi truck. I live on a farm in MO and we get a lot of weather that can knock out power. This generator gives me and my family peace of mind that we can continue daily life in the event of a long time power outage. Very easy to assemble the stabilizer feet and wheels. Super easy to move even though it weighs over 200 pounds.Ir has more than enough power to do everything I need it to be able to do. Well worth the money!
