Power!!!

Have only.used this iGen5000c with a second iGen5000c for one hour connected in parallel on my RV. Previously ran my RV on an iGen4500 (not parallel capable) but my power requirements were more than it could provide so upgraded to twin iGen5000c models. Running in parallel provides all the power I have needed in my test run. I plan to add a second AC unit to my RV and am confident that I will have all the power I will need. When not running everything in 100* temperatures the iGen4500 I had did very well. I anticipate great service from the twin iGen5000c models.

Easy set up

Originally bought the Generac iq3500 the unit was heavier with no wheels. Not very portable, 2 people needed just to move position. Sent it back and bought this. Nice portable generator with more power, wheels and extending handle. Starts first time using electric starter. Test run over the weekend worked great!

Very good and well made igen5000c generator

I have not used it yet but I did start it and made sure it was working properly. It starts really well using the starter and rope pull start. It is extremely quiet compare to my previews generator and very well made. I think this Igen5000c makes the best Generators you can buy.

Works great, arrived a little rough

What matters most is performance and features, and I am very pleased with the generator. It's the small details that prevent a full five-star review. There were a few plastic shavings on the casing and panels that could have been cleaned up. Some of the compartment screws are a bit rough and seem like they will strip easily. A few scuffs here and there, but it is plastic. I just wished I was the one that caused the scuffs than it arriving that way. Based on several reviews, I checked the sparkplug for proper seating and gap, and it was fine. Initial startup couldn't be simpler. Once it was broken in a bit, I hooked it up to the RV and ran all lights, microwave and A/C with no difficulty. This is a hefty generator and will keep you fit. Squat to pick it up or you'll end up in the ER.

Highly Recommend

I did a lot of research before purchasing this generator. After hooking up the battery and filling oil and gas, it started on the first pull. I ran it a few hours with a light load. It is very quiet. Read 70db standing right next to it and 52-54db at 50'. I hooked it up to my living quarters horse trailer and it indicated 25% load with the 13,500btu A/C running, went to 75% with the microwave. Who knew they drew this much power? Then turned on a 1500 watt ceramic heater and it approached 100% but the main breaker still held. I highly recommend this product.

Soooo Quiet!

We bought this generator to use on our RV and wow, it is so quiet! Much quieter than even some of the other brands marketed as "quiet". The remote control feature is so nice, not having to go out to manually start the generator when it is cold. Great purchase!

Quiet with Power

I bought this a week ago and have only used a couple of times. was able to power a small cabin with lights and fans while charging cordless tool batteries, running a small air compressor and a table saw all at the same time! Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that the gas gauge hasn't worked on it since I got it and I haven't used it that much. So I guess time will tell if this is a well built machine.

Lots of great extras for great price

We bought this great little generator specifically to handle the 15k BTU air conditioner for travel trailer. 3k watts is to small to run air and a few other items and 7k watts is over kill and paying for power you really don't need so it fits perfectly in the middle. We can run the A/C, microwave, TV and every light at the same time with no problems. Love the remote start that you pay extra for on other models. It is very quiet and so far have had no issues with our purchase.

Great generator

Meets all of my needs. Handle makes moving it very easy. Very quiet. Wheels could be a little wider making it easier to move in soft soil or sand. The remote feature is WONDERFUL as I use it for my RV. The display provides a lot of useful information.

Works great!

Very simple to set up and get going. Started up the first time after 3 pulls. After that its starts up on the first pull every time. Even though the unit is heavy, the handle and wheels make it easy to move around. I also really like the design and it has loads of features without being overwhelming.
