I received the generator and was up and running in no time. Just add the included oil and some gas. Connect the battery leads and push the start button!!! It started immediately. Very impressed with how quiet the unit is! The handle and wheels are very handy when moving the generator around. Looking forward to putting it to use!

I just got this inverter generator yesterday for an 8-10 month RV trip we plan to take here shortly where we'll be boondocking the majority of the time. I wanted an inverter generator that was known to be a good brand, quiet, and powerful enough to handle our 30-amp travel trailer. This one fit the bill. It's very heavy but I like that it has a built-in telescoping handle to roll it along like a suitcase. I got it earlier than expected and it came fully assembled and ready to go - just connect the battery, add oil (included), and add gas. I haven't fired it up yet but plan to do so and test it out soon. I'm giving it 5 stars for now, but I'll change this once I fire it up if it doesn't meet my expectations.

Just received the package. Well packaged and documented. Smells brand new. Feels and looks in good quality. Yet to be tested when next power outage comes. This thing is heavy but managable. I was able to pull the box out of the machine by myself. With the pull-out handle, moving the machine around is just like pulling a luggage around without much effort. Although it is heavy, the size is smaller than what I expected. I watched on YouTube for a warning that the automatic choke did not work. Later I found out from a Westinghouse bulletin that this issue was caused by a disconnection of a power supply cable during shipping. Hope this will not hanppen on my unit. I will see. One thing that is missing in the instruction manual but I figured out is that you need to push a button on the handle in order to pull the handle out. I hope Westinghouse add this instruction in the future.

Only had one month. Have not used it other than for familiarization of unit ( Starting, Letting it run, Applying electrical loads to it etc.). Right out of the box the LED gas gauge was not working properly. It read half full when completely full and empty when below actual half full. As of now Westinghouse it taking care of issue. It happens. Starts quickly and is as quiet as a Honda.

After alot of research we bought the westinghouse iGen 4500. The box was damaged but the contents were still well protected with no damage. Followed the directions for fluid filing and battery connection and it stated right up. Did the 5 hour break in and then tried it on or camper. Quietly runs our 15000. Btu ac and all electronics. Very happy with this purchase.

I purchased 2 of these generators about a month ago and waited till today to "fire them up". Directions were super simple (this is my 1st time using this type of portable power). I am bringing my travel trailer home next Saturday and will see get a live test as I also have on order the Westinghouse Parallel Power Cord. I was very pleased with the smooth sound too. Of course the real test will be when I use them for boon docking.

We had problems starting the generator even though we had read the instructions. It stated oil and gas wasn't in the generator. However oil was and we got too much oil in it and had to take some out. In the package there was a container of oil which was not full. In fact the whole box was oily and so was the generator. Had to wipe everything down. Finally after couple of days we finally got it started and took it camping. 1st night it ran great and enough wattage to run AC, all lights on and microwave going. 2nd night had a problem having generator turn on and had to deal with the choke and got it running. After getting home no problem turning the generator on.

I bought this a few days ago and am very pleased. It starts right up, is very quiet and powerful. This is well made and is easy to service, except for oil changing, which would benefit from a larger access door. Evidently the auto choke starting problems (wire disconnected from factory) have been resolved at the factory level and all is well. I highly recommend this generator.

I was in the market for an inverter/generator and this checked all the boxes. I did tons of research and watched even more video reviews of everything on the market and the iGen4500 was the best fit for me. Followed all the set up procedures and it fired right up and ran like a top. I hope that I get years of service out of this machine coupled with my travel trailer.

I bought this 3 weeks ago and took it on a cross country trip with my travel trailer. It easily handled the loads of my trailer at boondocker type campsites. It is easy to use and directions for start up and break-in (5 hours) were very clear. It started up immediately and has continued to run flawlessly.
