Pleasant surprise

Everyone is talking about Honda generators how good they are. I did give a change to Westinghouse to prove me wrong and they did. I bought iGen4500 not long ago for our trailler to run AC and othere aplliances in that. I test it with AC, Refrigirator and microwave on and iGen4500 can handle this no problem. Remote start make it even more convineance to use it.

Really Quiet and Easy To Start and Use

I purchased the iGen 4500c to replace a generator that was stolen. It is easy to set up out of the box. You just need to add oil (included), connect the battery, add gas, turn the fuel valve to on, turn the rocker switch on and press the start button. It is really quiet and is easy to maneuver with the telescoping handle.

WOW This IS a Quiet Inverter/Generaro

I purchased this to replace a stolen generator. After researching the options I decided on this model. It cranked right up with the push button electric start and is super quiet.

The way of the future

So far so good. Its very quiet. Gassed up and it fired right up with no issues. The key fob is a great addition. Couple of non deal breakers are i wish the voltage menu would start with a V however it is a U. The remaining runtime estimate is under F. Little confusing on the alphabet they use. Also the fuel level is listed in liters instead of gallons. I feel like this generator will meet my needs.

Great genny for the price.

Fired right up and hasn't skipped a beat. The remote option is a nice add for when its raining and just don't wanna go out and touch it. Runs my 15000btu a/c with no problem and is decently quite. Would recommend for a well priced inverter generator.

Love the extra features!

I gave this to a gentleman who had his previous generator go out on him. He uses it on a daily basis as he has NO electricity or running water. He likes it because it takes less fuel for him to run and is much quieter than his old one. He enjoys the remote start as he doesn't have to go out in the rain to start it.

Great features, with plenty of power for my needs.

So far I am loving the iGen5000. Only had it a couple of days now, but it seems to work great. I have 2 other Westinghouse generators that have been very good. I have the iGen2500 and a WH3700ixLTc. I have had those 2 generators for several years and they have always worked great. The feature I like the most on the iGen5000 is the electric start. No more having to pull a start rope!!

Great Generator Great Price

I have ran Predator inverter generators in the past. Due to getting a couple bad Predator units i decided to go blue. So far so good. I love the way the Westinghouse is set up. It seems quiter than a Predator also. The price is also better than Predator.

Disappointed

I bought this unit a few months ago, did a proper break in, and had it charging ready for when it was needed. When it was needed it would not stay running, it would rev up and quit. I submitted warranty claim and it has been sitting in a shop for 3 weeks. I needed it for camp in 2 weeks, now I am looking to either buy another inverter or cancel a family trip. Not a great start.
