Super Inverter I've owned several

I bought this igen 5000 to replace my igen 4500 which had 580 run hours on it. This is the 3rd Westinghouse I've purchased and can attest to their quality and performance, bar none. I'm excited to begin use of the 5000 while camping this summer. GREAT PRODUCT; quiet, powerful and flawless.

Perfect Size and great price!

Just purchased this product for our usage for Farmers Markets and on farm general use. Very good quality , very well packaged, nice quality of manufacturing, and very easy to start . Ran a full size freezer ( lay down ) and a full size side by side refrigerator with doors open to kick on compressors and didn’t even make this hoss bow down. I ran them in ECO mode to see if it would boggle and nothing! Very impressed!!

exactly as described and what I was hoping for

Comes basically ready to go, connect battery(2 slip together wires) fill with shipped oil and start up. Already sitting on my cargo rack on the rear bumper of my travel trailer, enough juice to power everything and i mean everything. Just a hair over 100 lbs my wife and I can set it on cargo shelf no problem. Also kinda nice to have a bit larger one to have around the house just in case, you never know. Thanks

Easy set up, started on first try and ran perfect

Bought this after realizing I needed a reliable portable generator when a hurricane passed through and cause an extended power outage. This generator started up first try, with the remote key fob and ran quietly. I am looking forward to the next outage to put this machine to practice.

Generator is well built

Generator is well built and appears to be sturdy enough for intended RV use. Directions for use are simple and should allow for easy operation. Looking forward to using it on trips where normal RV hook-ups are not available. It appears it will be able to power all of our necessary devices without any strain on it or us.

Works great, very quiet

Purchased in early spring 2020. Added oil and tested everything with our Travel Trailer. Started immediately, worked great. Powered AC unit and Refrigerator. Used 53 hours, perhaps half of that at altitude of 9500 ft. Ran great. Started easily. Runs quiet. We put it on the shelf on the tongue of our travel trailer. Bedroom is at that side. No issues sleeping with it running right next to where our bedroom is.

Heavy but great generator!

We purchased this generator with the expectation that it would be quieter than our previous 3500w generator and it has lived up to it! It is a little still heavy like our other one and actually taller than expected but we need the extra power so its worth all that still.

Impressing package

We have been researching portable generators for years for various reasons. When my wife found this one it looked like it has all the features we need. - Attractive compact package - Inverter - easy to transport and move - quiet - plenty of power for our purposes - Seems well built - electric (and remote) start - we're in our 80s

Good Emergency backup for key household power

I am using this generator as backup power for the home. No hurricanes this year but I have had two days without power due to construction to test it out. I have been able to run a 13K BTU portable air conditioner, refrigerator, computer, and wifi/ networking equipment. The unit started with the battery very easily. My wife had difficulty with the pull start but was able to get the generator started with that method as well. The guages are very easy to read. I would like for it to have some measure of total running time to easier schedule maintenance.

Issues within the first hour

I purchased igen4500 because my dad bought one and I liked his alot. I sold 2 generacs 2200i inverters and purchases this one. after about 1 hour of use the display is no longer showing any load or voltage output when it is in fact running a load. kind of disappointing. Will be calling customer service on monday. will update review after speaking with customer service.
