I compared a lot of generators before deciding on the iGen4500. It arrived well-packed in a styrofoam cradle inside a sturdy box. The initial setup was simple, and it started on the first push of the button. I have tried it with various loads, and it easily powers my travel trailer’s air-conditioner and microwave, even while simultaneously recharging the trailer battery. It truly is one of the quietest generators I have ever encountered, especially considering the power it packs.

I received the generator on 6/26 and used 100% synthetic oil instead of he oil received with the unit. With the cost of the unit, why put in a cheaper oil. I ended up doing a 6 hr. break-in and varied the wattage from 22-1,643 with many changes over the time period. The digital data center is very handy for tracking the various outputs of the generator. I had no problems during the break-in process. In fact everything went smoothly as one would expect. I am only running ethanol free gas in it and it will be drained of fuel until we have the potential of a hurricane coming our way. I live in Florida and had a Honda 2000 for back-up, for the last 2 years, but never needed it as the hurricanes skirted us with only some higher winds and some rain. I bought this generator because I wanted to make sure I had the power to run the refer/freezer, microwave, TV, internet, lighting and various small items.

I bought the iGen4500 as both a backup generator for home as well as for power when we camp. The unit has several nice features including remote start and quiet operation with plenty of power to support all the things we'd need it for. The item was delivered well packaged and includes oil to get you started. I filled the unit with oil and a bit of gas and it fired right up. Very pleased with the iGen4500!

Just unboxed it and did the start up of the generator to test it out with my trailer. It works great and is quiet. Only thing I had a problem with was the gave me the “exact” amount of oil so I poured it all in. Now I have a oil puddle on my driveway because it overfilled it so be prepared and have rags available or fill slowly and check as you go.

i bought this igen4500 to power my travel trailer,after delivery and unpacking the instruction were easy to follow to set up gen for use. after starting the gen i let warm up then pluged my trailer to it and tested all electric on trailer it will run all at the same time i recommend this igen4500 to any one.

Just received. Box showed minor abuse in transit, but packaging protected product. Love the size, access to maintenance areas, id labels for everything, slide away handle and carry handles. After much research, I decided on the iGen4500 as my first ever generator. Positive customer reviews had much to do with it, but so did the features and specifications for this unit. I am looking forward to giving it a test run.

bought this igen4500 to replace an aging mge5800 backup generator that’s 20 years old and very noisy. After the recent and numerous Sonoma County fires, I needed a replacement generator that my wife could also operate with ease. The igen4500 gives the ease of starting with the remote start plus the telescoping handle allows my wife and I to move the igen4500 without hesitation. No longer will our ears have to suffer the noise that our reliable mge5800 made through our forced 6 day power shutdown by PG&E. We have the quietness and the needed power supply from igen4500 for any future needs. My wife was absolutely thrilled that she could operate the igen4500 by herself. Her smile said it all.

I bought this after hurricane Helene and was just able to unbox and use it yesterday. it's a great little unit. Easy to put together and get going. the remote fob works really well. It works well with my sisters Travel Trailer. and is really quiet! Well done on the design.

Researched several generators before deciding on this one. Started it up when I got it home and was quite pleased with the quietness of the unit. I am impressed with the features it has and the ease of use. I hope to have this unit for a long time. Primary use will be for camping, but it will make a great backup for power outages.

Would not start right out of the box. Found the choke wire was routed too tight from the factory, so it came unplugged in shipping. I rerouted the wire and plugged it in… Runs absolutely perfect now. The remote start is awesome!!! I waited to give this review so I could use it and see how it did. turns out, it is much more than I expected it would be. I would recommend this product to anyone… In fact, I already have and he just ordered one last week
