GREAT DESIGN AND EVERYTHING WORKS

This IGen4500DF worked great right out of the box. It is a very nice looking unit and is very quiet. I love the dual fuel and remote start.
I would recommend this to a friend!

So far, so good

Bought the generator for backup power at my apartment, but also for camping use since it's nice and quiet and has enough power to run the essentials in the apartment.
Got it set up and fully charged the battery. It started right up. Tested it but only with some light loads. Everything worked fine. Let it sit for a few days and started it again. Did not have any problems with the choke as some others have mentioned. It runs fairly smooth and very quiet, though again I didn't put a heavy load on it.
It's small enough to fit into my outdoor closet and the pop out handle and wheels really helps in moving it around. It's heavier than I thought and would require 2 people to lift into a truck or hatchback.
The controls and outlets are compact and succinct. And it's convenient to have a battery trickle charger built into the control panel.
So far it seems to meet my needs and expectations. The caveat is that I won't have much opportunity to get much use of it for awhile. Time will tell. So far so good.
I would recommend this to a friend!

i bought this to run my pumps when my house floods. the duel fuel is the ticket and what can be better than remote start. I just followed the set up and starting guidelines pulled the rope, started on 3rd pull. turned it off and pushed the start button , boom started right up. turned it off again and used the remote and again great start. no reason to fool around plugged in my chop saw and cut away its 15 amps... so yea I'm ok so far. feeling like I made the correct choice

After putting oil in the generator and connecting the battery I took the propane tank off of the grill and followed the instructions. Started right up.

We just got a camper and wanting to boondock. Found this online to be the best for our needs and maybe a line for our neighbor. Can't wait for our first camp trip with our generator

Looking Forward to Using This Boondocking

I selected this model because it is exactly what I need to power my 36 foot, 4-slide 5th Wheel Trailer. Based upon the reviews, I expect it to be able to run my 13.5K air conditioner AND my convection microwave. Also, the electric water heater, refrigerator, and the washer and dryer. From the specs, I anticipate good fuel economy, and quiet running. My Alumascape is prepped for a Marquise 5.5kW Generator, but it is a noisy EXPENSIVE gas hog. Going to travel with the iGen4500DF in the compartment meant for the Marquise, with room for a lot more stuff. NO, I am NOT going to run it in there... This is all the power I need, without a large fuel bill, important as both gasoline and propane increase faster than the record inflation. The Dual fuel gives me more options out on the road, too!
