Great power for the price and size
on April 5, 2021

Started right up after adding fuel and oil. I like the option of remote start for when we go camping. The info panel is an excellent feature to monitor fuel, power and runtime. I plugged a few items in and the noise level didnt change much, it's very quiet. I look forward to many years of use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GREAT GENERATOR NEEDS MINOR IMPROVMENTS
on April 5, 2021
Posted by: The iGEN11000DFc

The LPG option is perfect for my application. The generator functions well. No complaints. However the oil & battery access areas are way to small. I had a difficult time gaining access with my hand to check and change the oil and plug in /install the battery. The key fob remote starter is a great idea. BUT the main off/on switch must be operated by hand at the generator or the battery will eventually run down.

Dual Fuel

I received this igen4500DF as a gift. I had been looking for a unit like this for a while. We have several acres at the foothills of the Appalachia Mountains and we did not want power lines running thru the property. This works great for what we need it for. Propane was a must for me and the noise levels are minimal. Great gift. Glad someone was listening to what I was looking for.

Had to fix it.
on April 5, 2021
Posted by: Anonymous
from White Lake, MI
Followed initial start up procedure and upon adding fuel, it started leaking everywhere. I found the main line from the fuel tank was completely disconnected. This could have been a major fire hazard and we feel this should be taken up with higher ups and we should be credited for us having to FIX something that should have been right from the factory. Westinghouse I expect you will contact me and or respond to my complaint.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

SWITCHED FROM HONDA
on April 5, 2021
Posted by: COLORADOGIS
from Canon City, CO
PRIOR TO BUYING THIS GENERTOR I USED TWO HONDA 2000 GENERATORS IN PARALLEL MODE TO GET THE WATTAGE NEEDED FOR MY RV. PROBLEM WITH THE HONDAS IS THAT IF YOU NEGLECT AND LEAVE FUEL IN THE CARBURETOR THE HONDAS WILL NOT START AND IT CAN CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE REQUIRING A REBUILD. THIS GENERATOR BY BEING DUAL FUEL YOU CAN LEAVE GAS TANK EMPTY AND JUST RUN ON PROPANE AND WHEN YOU SHUT THE PROPANE TANK VALVE THE GENERATOR WILL BURN UNUSED FUEL QUICKLY.

We wanted a year to have this generator come back in stock.We love it, well worth the wait.Great price ,quick delivery with no damage. We are using it to go boondocking with our travel trailer. Great to know we have back up power when the hurricanes come to Florida.
