Westinghouse 4000 Peak Watt Super Quiet Dual Fuel Portable Inverter Generator, Remote Electric Start, Gas & Propane Powered, RV Ready, CO Sensor, Parallel Capable

Seems very well built and compact. Smallest, lightest, and most power for the price point. Surprisingly quiet. Once I located the battery wires to connect, everythingwent smoothly and it started right up. I connected it to my van conversion using the 30A RV outlet and it ran the AC with no problems. My only minor complaint is that the fuel strainer is SO fine as to make filling the as tank VERY slow. I haven't tried running it on propane yet but the electric start and the remote start work perfectly! Very pleased

It's quiet and easy to use. Like the use of the remote. Starts on first try. Portable with handle and wheels. Would recommend.

The setup of the generator was as simple as taking it out of the box, connecting the internal wiring to the battery, putting oil in, connecting to propane and starting it up. It took all of about 10 minutes to get everything going.I think that the battery may not have been fully charged though because the push button would turn the engine but didn't ever start it. I ended up doing the pull start, but I have plugged it in and will give the electric start another try. The pull start fired up the engine on one pull.The generator runs very smoothly and is super quiet. It is solidly built in every aspect.

Dual Fuel! Remote start! 4000 peak watts. 30 amp plug. And lightweight, 62 lbs. Several other inverters with similar features were over 100 lbs and therefore less portable, at least for me. Everything I wanted. Powers the gas furnace, refrigerator, modem, electronics in case there's a power failure. Great value!Here's my issue. I couldn't make the unit's battery plug connection flush. It looks like a minor manufacturing flaw. There was a gap and one of the pins is visible. See the attached picture. It worked like this but didn't look right to me. I contacted Westinghouse and they said that the connection was safe "as is". While that may be the case, I didn't like the pin being exposed. The unit worked and I liked everything else about this inverter so I decided to address the issue for my comfort level. And this solution was easier than returning it. I found a small, thin rubber washer that I could fit around the pin so it was no longer exposed. Then I put electrical tape around the connection. It works in this configuration. I'm keeping it.This will be the perfect inverter to backup my home in case there's a power failure. If we have a power failure, I plan to use my 5 gallon propane tanks initially. If I run out of propane, I'll use gasoline. I can turn it off and on from inside the my home with the remote.

This is my 2nd Westinghouse inverter generator, the first one was the Westinghouse iGen4500DF . This model has retained the good functioning of the 4500DF, and improved on various usability features that make maintenance access much easier.The power output for both surge and normal operation is spot on with the stated specifications. In measuring with my iPhone app decibel meter at 25 feet from the inverter shows a slightly quieter noise level than the stated specifications.For RV use, this inverter is brilliant. At 72 years of age, I can lift the inverter into the back of my Ford F150 with no assistance; though it is not lightweight, it is manageable. For moving on the ground, the fold out handle and back wheels make moving form one location to the next a breeze.The 30 Amp RV plug in outlet works as intended and easily handled to startup surge of the 15000 BTU air conditioner. This unit handled both the microwave and the air conditioning was fine.The electric start and the remote start function well and make starting a breeze, and if need be the manual starter pull rope also gets things started with not much effort.All-in-all I have little to be negative about. Even the packaging of the inverter/generator was well done, and with UPS delivery it had not a scratch to the unit.My guess is that for those in the market for this sized output inverter, you will also be pleased with your purchase.
