Awesome

Just purchased and after looking at the numerous amount of machines i settled here. The Honda was very nice but 2-3 times the cost and less wattage. This also has propane which is an awesome feature so no need to worry on storage with fuel. Overall very please with my purchase and to boot...its quiet !
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice and quiet

Set up is easy, and break in isn't bad. Draining oil is kind of a hassle being in a tight spot. But its a necessary evil to keep your equipment going strong. Runs what we need for power outages, and handles our camper great. Being a popup we never have the generator loaded up all the way, which really helps with the fuel economy of it.

IG4500DFC

decided to purchase the Westinghouse iGen4500DF inverter generator. My first impression upon receipt was the packaging it came in. Though the box was a bit roughed up due to shipping, none of the contents were damaged. The box is made of sturdy cardboard and the styrofoam packing is of good quality - not the usual flimsy stuff that comes from China. The company did it's job to ensure it's product gets to the customer in good shape.
After unboxing and reading the user manual, I added oil, connected the battery and added gasoline. I only use premium gasoline without ethanol for all my small engines. Note that a handy oil funnel comes with the unit along with oil and enough small tools to perform the usual maintenance tasks like changing the spark plug or air cleaner. I thought this was a very nice touch. Careful when adding the oil, it can be easily overfilled. Just go slow and check the level often as you fill. I then double-checked the startup procedure, and pressed the start button. It started on the first try. I let it run for a few minutes and shut it down. I then tried the remote start. Again, it started on the first try. I ran the unit on and off for the next hour just playing with it and checking things over. So far, it has started on the first try every time no matter which method I used. I'll take it as a very good sign.
The generator is made with good quality plastics and metal. Nothing that I have touched or handled feels cheap or flimsy. The telescoping handle works well and is sturdy. I was able to extend the handle and move the unit with one arm while in the garage - just to see if I could. The unit rolls well and is easy to maneuver; however, I do not expect this to be the case while in the woods, but I think I'll be able to place it where I want it without too much trouble. It is also nice to know that If the generator is connected to a propane tank, you can switch from using gasoline to propane on the fly and vice versa. I like this flexibility!
This generator is very similar to the Cummins Onan P4500DF Dual-Fuel Inverter Generator.
