Solid initial evaluation

I have only used this for about 1 hours. I assembled it which was straightforward. Quality seems good. Ran good. Hooked it up to my 50 amp generator sub panel and ran it up to about 50% power on propane, no issues. I obviously cannot comment on long term durability or fuel efficiency but so far so good. Only negative I could say so far is that some of the fittings on the propane regulator/hose were loose, but that's understandable. Also, the propane tubing is too short in my opinion.

So far, so good

After looking at a variety of generator brands, I decide the iGen11000DFc gave me what I wanted at the right price point. It was easy to setup and I've tested it using gasoline, a 20lb propane tank, and my 250 gal propane tank (I had a plumber set that up). I filled it with the oil that came with the generator, replaced the oil dipstick with a magnetic dipstick from GenExhaust, ran it for 30 minutes on gasoline and then 30 minutes on propane, and then changed the oil to a 5W-30 synthetic.

Just what I needed

The generator was easy to unbox and assemble. It came with everything I need to put it together and connect it to a propane tank. I have close neighbors so I like the fact that this runs quietly. I haven't needed to use it yet but I'm confident that it will keep my house going if we have a power outage.

Shipped with very little to do to get it operating

I bought this to use for home backup power and to run some power tools when working outdoors. A test run for home backup and it powered the circuits I ran to a transfer switch and so far there have not been and issues with operating a table saw and compound miter saw allowing me to setup shop where power isn't available. Push button start is a bonus.

Great generator upgrade

I bought this unit to replace an older and smaller, dual fuel conventional generator. I wanted more capacity, clean power, lower noise and the ability to run on propane from my 500 gallon tank. I was extremely impressed by the packaging when I initially un-boxed it. Absolutely everything needed to get it up and running was included, including the necessary wrenches to install the feet, handle and wheels, a spark plug wrench, battery trickle charger, and the initial quart of oil. There is a full printed manual, parts list and maintenance guide, all written in clear and easily understandable language. A job well done!! The generator itself started easily and ran without issue for the full break-in period. It is very quiet compared to the generator it is replacing. Certainly louder than some small inverters that I have seen, but still very quiet for a generator of it's capacity. Controls are well laid out and easy to understand. Having both the push button and remote start features with automatic choke control is awesome. While it is too new to have any valid comment on longevity and durability, the unit appears to be very robustly constructed. So far, very satisfied with this purchase.

Great generator!

I really like this generator. It is quieter than most, and especially when using the eco mode, which saves precious fuel when supplies may be limited, such as after hurricanes here in Florida). It has enough power to run everything I need in my home. I also like the wheels and fold-away handle to make it easier to roll away when not needed.

So far, great

Just got the 11000dfc set up and it started right up, the electrician who installed the transfer switch was amazed at how quiet it was. It worked great once we figured out the battery on button. This is for home back up when the electric company turns the power off and sure could've used it a few weeks ago but now I'm ready for the next power shut off!

Very Quiet generator

When my 8 y.o. Generac 15,000 KW gen with about 30 hours died right in the middle of a 4 day power loss, I decided to try a different brand. I searched the web and when I saw this 11,000 kw w/ inverter I decided to try it. Igot it all set up and when I started it, I could NOT believe how quiet it is. I have not had to use it yet, but feel it will do a good job. So far I love it.

Easy setup, just heavy for one person.

Receive generator yesterday (two days after ordering). Received in good condition. Installed wheels, pads, oil and handle. Connected battery. Very sturdy, but heavy. Will start after receiving fuel. Can expand review after starting and running the generator but expect it to operate well.

The good and the bad

The Good: (1) Generator shipped in reasonable time. (2) Easy to set up as all tools are included, even the engine oil. (3) Works as expected ( when stating with button ) and Noise level very reasonable. The Bad: I wanted to try starting manually too. The recoil handle broke off and detached from the wire. The wire simply retracted into the generator and cannot be found.
