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.

Incredibly quiet!

Bought this generator for the off shore camping we do. It’s so quiet and starts right up. I love the remote so we can start it up right inside our trailer. Love that I don’t have to pull start it as my shoulder is messed up. We are really happy with this purchase.

OverAll an Excellent Generator ... But ....

When I unboxed and setup the Gen it wouldn't start. I researched and found that it was a common problem with this Gen. One of the cables was NOT plugged in. Westinghouse needs to do better QUALITY CONTROL. They have an Excellent Product but the People Assembling it are lacking.

Great first impression

I recently purchased the iGen 4500 for home use because we tend to lose power several time a year. Today, I started it for the first time - and it was as smooth a silk. The engineering on the machine is quite consumer friendly, especially the telescoping handle -genius ! I did have one question about the initially start-up so I called customer service. My question was answered quickly and with knowledge. Now this is my first impression of the I Gen. I am confident that it will prove true and reliable when I really need it.

Great Generator

Purchased in February. Finally installed it late last month and have been using it since. Easy to use and works very well. Using lpg with it. Helpful display for power and output. Definitely would buy it again and recommend it. Would be helpful if the other display items worked with lpg. Thank you.

Very easy to operate

Bought it a month and 1 day ago. No surprises, was my 2nd generator. Use it to power my RV. it is compact and easy to move with the grab handles and the retractable pull arm. love the options to start it: pull cord, button on the unit and FOB. would recommend this to anyone.

Wonderful Remote

The ease of starting the generator from the comfort of the trailer during a rainstorm will be wonderful. The requirement of starting with "no-load" is being accomplished with our in-line surge protector that determines the line condition after about two minutes before turning on power to the trailer.

New camper=new generator

Like to research just about any big purchases in my life, and certainly did that with this generator. It seemed to hit all of the marks that I was looking for. Bought a new camper that required a bigger generator and this one hasn’t let me down yet. My initial run with this generator was 24 hours a day for five days consecutively. It never hesitated, it started every time after fueling, and so far this thing has lived up to my reviews.

Awesome!

Have had this gen since 06-15-18 have taken it on several camping trips with my fifth wheel and absolutely no issues at all. Purchased a cargo carrier and matching bag to protect the gen while on the road and LOVE IT! Also would recommend a gen tent for protection in inclement weather. Have had it to Yellow Stone and my mountain property in Montana (where the wind can be quite high) and no issues whatsoever. Highly recommend to follow the break in directions, used the oil provided for initial break in then I use full synthetic. My RV dealer was very impressed took many pictures and couldn't believe the sound level (or the lack of) he now has one on display. Couldn't be happier!

Good Value

This generator appears to be a good value for the price. I plan to use it to provide power for my camper when shore power is unavailable. I like that it has an electric start so I don't have to pull start it. I have only ran it for about 10 hours so far so I can't comment on its long term performance. So far it appears to be able to power all of the appliances in my 30 foot Cougar camper. I even ran two 1500 watt electric heaters at the same time. The overload indicator light did come on as the air conditioner started, but the air continued to run.
