I LOVE THIS GENERATOR

I bought this generator, and have installed in our race car trailer. It runs everything from air compressor, lights, fridge and induction hot plate. The key fob works great. Except if you leave the master switch on, for a while it will drain the battery. To solve this problem. I have relocated the master switch to the front on the work bench. Now when I need the generator I turn on the switch and push on, on the remote. When finished using the generator I simply turn off the main power.

Perfect for RV or Home Power Emergencies

The iGen4500 has met my every expectation. It is well built, quieter than expected and runs my 15000 BTU RV air conditioner, hot water heater, 20 cubic electric refrigerator, all lights and still power to spare. The remote ignition is a bonus. I am thoroughly satisfied.

Easy to use

This generator has a couple of great features that my previous generators had not; The battery start is great! Just push a button and it fires up. The remote is great for when you're starting and stopping more often. This machine is less than half the noise decibels than my previous generators. Two thing I don't care for but are far out-weighed by it's benefits are; the handle for moving it around is awkward and would be easy to re-design. The second is the outside shell is mainly plastic. We'll see how it holds up over the years.

Useful features

Recent power outages and a neighbor's recommendation spurred me to acquire this quiet and user-friendly generator for the next emergency. Setup and operating instructions are clear. The 3 starting options are helpful, and the remote start worked flawlessly.

Great value

I’ve had this a week and have around 12 hours on it. It runs great with no issues. It won’t handle both of my rv air conditioners but they’re 22 years old and likely need more power to start up. So far we love this generator and it’s much less expensive than some competitors.

iGen4500 Out Of The Box

Bought this earlier this week and started the recommended break-in period this evening. Easy to prepare to run, easy to change the oil. Started 1st pull. Remote worked 1st try from 25 feet. Push button start worked as advertised. Oil change at 1 hour of only normal idle/no load; had some noticeable silver metal shavings. I will run a second hour at idle, then 30 minutes under the load of Travel Trailer's AC and change the oil again and be ready for the summer travels..

Just purchased. But for the price seams very nice

Good looking generator. Just purchased currently running for break-in now. Easy first time start up. Put oil in added gas hooked up battery hit the switch and fired right up after gas got to carburetor. Remote start work good also. Will update review later if opinion changes.

This is a go anywhere generator

Our usage elevations fluctuate from 800 to 8000 feet. This generator handles this well. We love being able to use the fob to start or stop without getting out of the camper and at a distance of 99 feet. The live data display of remaining time run, power output, fuel level, voltage, and lifetime hours is an excellent tool. It can also be used as a back-up to household power shortage.

Great for travel trailer/RV use, met expectations

I bought this generator for my 35 foot travel trailer to run my appliances and air conditioner. With a full load of the trailer (everything on and running with a 13.5 KBTU air conditioner) the generator was running at a 75% load. Price point is excellent, you would have to spend twice as much for a Honda product with less afeatures. While running the air conditioning inside the trailer, I could not hear the generator and it was ten feet behind our trailer. Remote start is an,excellent feature but took three tries to start after sitting overnight. Prior to purchase I read several reviews and only 25 percent were negative, which helped me make my decision. After putting gas and oil in it straight out of the box it started right up. Overall pleased with product.

Excellent generator!!

Used this to run some audio and lighting for my stage production company. Love having the meter that shows the wattage being pulled! Also, the push start is fantastic. Makes it quick and easy. It started right up out of the box, and still does to this day.
