Price is within $40 of the lowest which I have seen for the dual fuel version. Amazon prices change hourly. YMMV. One of the quietest and most fuel efficient out there.

much better graphical digital data center can be read from a distance
nicer case, retractable aluminum handle
larger 224 cc engine
Not long ago it was very difficult to find the igen4500DF in stock. Sams and Home Depot would sell out within hours at $1100-$1200.
Sam's sale price today: $929 f/s only for Plus memebers
No coupon is required on this deal unlike the deal a few weeks back where targeted accounts saved a few extra bucks. If you need propane and remote start then $800 is very close to the bottom line in any brand.
The 3.4 gallon tank allows it to run overnight even when pushing it at 80% to run portable heaters. When the temperature gets below 40 the 20 lb BBQ tanks can't deliver enough vapor pressure for a generator due to the butane content. Must have 100 Lb tank or better.
I wish it had an L14-30 outlet and the ability to remotely switch the output from L1 to L2 to energize alternate sides of the house panel by feeding either side of the house gen inlet.
EDIT: Just realized the one for $759 isn't the same model as originally posted. Link takes you to the iGen5000fc. Still dual fuel/electric start, but not sure how it stacks up against the 4500 other than different wattage claims.
