Won't start
on October 24, 2019

from Gilbert, AZ
I bought this item 6 months ago. We got out camper two months after that and tested everything out. The electric and remote start are a joke. They wouldn't work reliably. We did get it going and ran for a little while to test it's ability to handle our A/C unit. A couple months later I took it out to camp and NOTHING. It won't start. We went through all of the manual testing every possible option as well as watching YouTube Videos and reading service bulletins from Westinghouse and cannot get the product running. I am very disappointed with this purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Had to fix it.

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.

DISCONNECTED choke wire
on September 2, 2021

I picked up the generator from the supply store and noticed that it was running rough. So I checked the auto choke wire issue I found on YouTube. I pulled a bunch of screws off and reconnected the little wire to the back of the control panel and it works fine now. I love the duel fuel option and am very happy with the generator. It will be powering my entire house along with the reliance controls interface box which is wired into the panel of the house.

Amazing Genset, easy to use with great features

I have two other larger generators, but they are loud and have horrible harmonic distortion. That means the power being produced is "dirty." The Westinghouse iGen4500DF produces great clean power.
I started the generator using propane, to start the genetator couldn't be easier. After adding the oil. I connected a propane tank with the included hose and regulator, turned the unit on and then pushed the start button. It was like pushing a push button the start your car! It started up and it was so QUIET. I added a couple of space heaters, it automatically increased RPMs to handle the load. It actually shows what percentage of available watts are be used. So many great features my other units don't have.
Now I did read some reviews that talk about the auto choke not operating properly, not so with my unit.
Bottom line: highly impressed with the unit and highly recommended.

Just bought this inverter generator and could not be more pleased. Fast shipping, easy setup and produces plenty of power for our home backup needs. Looking forward to many many years of comfort knowing we have a reliable source of backup power.
