  • A solid performer, easy setup

Starts immediately on gas or propane. Good runtime on either fuel. Not silent, but comfortably quiet. Remote start with Fob is convenient. Start battery arrived fully charged. Easy to transport and use, even for slender housewife.

  • Great little generator
Style: 4000W Dual Fuel + Remote Start + CO Sensor
Review for: Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment 4000 Peak Watt Super Quiet Dual Fuel Portable Inverter. I'm using this to power one AC on my dual AC fifth wheel. The unit is very quiet and starts right up on propane. I may get another one and link them together with the optional 50 amp cord to run both units. Very happy with the unit so far. It's fairly light and balanced when carrying it and has an informative front panel display to let you know monitor the output level etc. ... show more

  • Westinghouse iGen4500 - So Far, So Good
Style: 4500W + Remote Start
I'm a little hesitant to write a review with only slightly over 20 hours of run time, but feel it's appropriate considering the varied opinions offered in other reviews of this generator. I will attempt to update the review if something changes. First, total props to Amazon for the delivery. One of my biggest concerns was shipping damage. Amazon delivered on time and in pristine condition. The box looked untouched and the delivery driver handled it with great care. The Good: - Appears to be a well thought out design, but with a clear effort to minimize cost. That's not all bad, but I believe somewhat gentle treatment will be required to ensure longevity. - Incredibly easy start up. Add oil and fuel, connect battery, turn fuel on and start. I was actually startled by how fast it started. - Fuel consumption seems very acceptable. It sips fuel at idle with no load. I have no concern with being able to run RV a/c overnight. The large fuel tank was a positive consideration in the decision to buy this generator. - Fuel fill port is large, easily accessible and the rubber mat around it makes fuel spill cleanups easy. - Noise level is low. - The extendable handle makes it easy to move around - The data display is helpful, although 3 fields regarding remaining fuel seem redundant. I particularly like the total run time, voltage and wattage readings. - There is a rubber plug in the machine housing, just below the oil drain plug. Removal of the plug made the 20 hour oil change a reasonably clean and simple process. I had no trouble accessing the drain plug with a short 10mm combination wrench. - Customer support - Pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to contact customer support. First guy was basically a jerk, but fortunately we got disconnected (or did he hang up?) while I was trying to get the serial number. The second call was a refreshing experience. Michael ( I think) was incredibly professional and helpful. I got answers to the few questions that I had and several other helpful bits of information. Totally satisfied with that second call! The Bad: - The product literature is pretty bad and outdated. It does not match the machine that I received. Apparently revisions were made to the product design, but the literature was not updated to reflect the changes. Revised manuals are not available, but will, supposedly, be available by the end of 2020. - My machine had a different control panel configuration from that in the manual. - The manual states that the LED Data Center display automatically rotates through various fields and does not provide lifetime operation hours. My machine has a small button that must be pressed to change data fields and it does include lifetime hours. I think both of these functions are improvements, but the manual should match the product received. - The manual instructs one to add entire bottle of supplied oil before the initial startup. My machine would not hold the entire bottle. Fortunately, because of previous reviews, I knew not to follow those instructions.I packed rags around the fill port and topped the engine up bit by bit until full, thus preventing a big mess. - The manual makes no mention of the rubber plug beneath the engine drain plug and actually instructs to tip the machine to drain oil through the oil fill port. While that will work, it is certainly more work and will result in a mess. - The location of the oil fill port almost guarantees a mess in the bottom of the machine housing. I pack rags around the fill port to collect the oil that WILL be spilled during oil check or fill. A better housing design would have have an easily cleaned space (similar to that beneath the engine oil drain) beneath the oil fill port. - After the first few hours of operation, I noticed a light film of oil covering a large portion of the rear housing. While it couldn't have been more than a few mils, it was still concerning (I'm sure oil was not over filled because I actually used a level to confirm the machine attitude during initial fill). Hoping that it was just some excessive assembly oil that was blown back by the cooling fan, before the next start, I meticulously removed as much of the oil as possible. I was pleased to find very little additional oil after running another 16-18 hours. Time will tell... Conclusion: - The user manual should match the product received. The manufacturers web site should, at the very least, contain current and relative information for the product sold, including bulletins when revisions are made or issues identified. I despise "Ship product, we'll worry about providing customer support later" approaches to business. - Appears to be a good value relative to competing machines by Honda, Yamaha, Firman, etc. - I find great similarity between Westinghouse and Onan portable generators, so I suspect that they're made by the same company and private labeled for both. - So far, so good... ... show more

  • So Quiet - Perfect for camping in those no power zones at your favorite camping spot.
Style: 4500W Dual Fuel
The media could not be loaded. Purchased this generator to take camping at our favorite KOA but the only spots left for Halloween were the ones with no power hook-ups. All I can say is that I'm super impressed by this generator. Super quite! I even had a neighbor come by and comment on how quite it is and he mentioned he also wanted to buy one. While camping, I had a group of my friends come by my campsite to go Mtn bike riding, and they all mentioned similar sentiments in terms of how quite this thing is. You can site there and talk to your friends and family with it running just a few feet away and it's not going to force you to talk loud or yell to interact with people around you. You can just talk at a normal volume and people can hear you just fine. That's impressive to me because I'm not a loud talker in general. I tend to be more laidback and talk at a lower tone. So, people being able to hear me over the generator is really awesome and impressive. I highly recommend this generator for the following reasons. 1. Super quite 2. Duel Fuel - lets you use propane over gas which doesn't have that gas exhaust smell and easier to burnoff the residual gas when shutting it down 3. Easy to start - This model has the remote start which makes it perfect for those cold mornings when stepping out of the trailer is not ideal. Or shutting it down at night when you're already in the trailer with your shoes off. Also, the button on the generator is just as easy. You push it once and it turns over until it starts. No messing with choke and all that give. 4. Weight - The generator is fairly lightweight for what it is. I was able to pick it up and put it in my truck without help. However, it did have an empty gas tank as I used with propane and not gasoline. 5. Fuel economy - I ran the generator from 6am to 10pm at night at a low to medium load on one tank of propane. 16 hrs of running my 30ft trailer with two refrigerators, coffee maker, TVs, lights, and fans. Only time the RPMs came up was when I used the Keurig type coffee maker in the morning. 6. Easy to move - With the retractable handle and wheels this thing is super easy to move around the campsite, even if it's all dirt. The only thing I'd want people to be mindful of is adding the oil when you set it up for the first time. My unit had a good amount of oil in it from the factory already so when I dumped the provided oil in with the included oil funnel I over filled it. IF... I would have read the instructions I would have noticed the comments saying "Don't overfill" the unit may have some oil in it already. Pour a little at a time until you can see it at the opening of the oil fill hole. Don't get all excited like I did and just pour the whole thing of oil as fast as you can. Hopefully I save a few of you the pain of cleaning oil off your garage floor or driveway. Other good option would be to drain the leftover factory oil out the drain and refill with the provided oil. ... show more

Bought for our RV at the recommendation of our son-in-law. This generator is ready to go and will meet your RV's power needs. It's very quiet and the remote allows you to start it early in the morning when the RV is cold. You can heat the RV up and have a cup of coffee before you need to go outside. On shorter trips the dual fuel allows you to use the RV propane tanks for fuel and not carry a separate gas can. ... show more
