Very nice features

Just fired the new generator up today and it started on the 3rd pull. It also has a remote start/off Fob that works great too.
It is a pretty heavy generator, but has wheels and nice pull bar.
It’s very quiet for a generator

Bought for a backup emergency generator. Wanted the DF option for a second choice of fuel. Startup is easy, runs quiet, and the digital display is great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

1st iGen4500DF Runs Great on Gasoline - Purchased
on February 19, 2022
Posted by: DBabb
from South Carolina
I bought my 1st iGen4500 in January 2021. The generator runs very quietly and provides enough power for our travel trailer. The only issue that I have is that I can’t get the generator to run on propane even after I ensured that the system was purged of all gasoline and the selector switch was set appropriately. Today was the first time I attempted to run the generator on propane with no success. I went through the troubleshooting procedures several times with no success, but I switched back to gasoline and it runs fine. Today (2/19/2022) I have contacted Westinghouse to find out how this issue can be resolved along with the current recall that I just found out about. Hopefully Westinghouse’s customer service is good and we can get everything taken care of. I would love to provide a update to my review after we get these issues resolved. I have faith that they will make things right.
Don’t get me wrong, I believe this is an excellent generator that runs very quietly even with the issues that I am currently experiencing. I liked it so much, I purchased a second one last week along with a parallel cable so I can use the generators together during a power outage. I would recommend this generator to anyone.
I have started our second iGen4500DF for the first time today using propane and it runs great.

Recently purchased to use on RV. Remote start and dual fuel options were some of the reasons I bought this unit. Eco feature and light weight were also a plus. Propane regulator, oil, funnel, tool kit were included. All that was needed was fuel. Very pleased with purchase so far!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this for the remote start, took it out of the box, put the oil and gas in it fired it right up. But, when I had to get it running during the night, it would not start. Battery was dead. Recharging the battery and see if it will start

Had all the features I was looing for

Ran great during the break in period, changed oil and ran it at home. Getting ready for a trip, my wife said she smells gas. The generator then sputtered then died, like it was running out of gas. I took off the side panel and noticed gas leaking all over the place. Somewhere at the fuel line. I cleaned up what I could and let it sit overnight. The gas leaked all over the wiring and god only knows what else. It now will not come close to starting. Its too bad this gen. was the only one with the features I wanted at a reasonable price. It had only 23 hours on it all break in hrs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
