Generator started immediately but would not get to speed due to choke. Found the Westinghouse tech note on the problem, easy fix, remove cover and reconnect wiring harness. Apparently not connected at factory. Beside this issue, I have no complaints and highly recommend it.

Just unboxed it and it seems well built. I like the luggage style handle and wheels a lot. Definitely bigger than I anticipated but I’ve never had a portable generator before so don’t think it’s specific to this one. Haven’t actually turned it on yet so can’t comment on how it runs.

Bought primarily for RV power in primitive camps. Will do a good job of running AC appliances and keeping battery charged. May get a second one to parallel power to house in case of outage. Well pleased with it. One suggestion: Owner manual says to siphon fuel from tank. Should also mention that there is a screen cup in filler neck that will have to be removed before tube can be inserted. Most people probably figure this out but a heads-up about this would be helpful. My model not listed in drop down box. It is a 2200ixlt

I need to power a 28' RV for both AC use in Summer and Winter and run the generator all night for my astronomy imaging equipment. I shopped around and listened to various generators and settled on this iGen4500 due to three key features: 1. had to be under 55 dB at 25% load (this unit measured 54 at 25 ') 2. Had to have a remote start (check!) 3. Had to have at least the three year warranty (check!) Bought the unit from Lowes on Jan 22 and picked it up on a Wednesday and loaded up for Florida Keys on Friday. Monday, after reaching Scout Key for the annual Winter Star Party, I added oil and fuel then fired up the iGen4500. The remote worked flawlessly and my genny was the quietest one in it's size class. I built a simply old-style 'tent' over the unit in case of rain and directed the exhaust towards US 1 (always busy 24/7). About 400 astroimagers on the Key and maybe 30 came by to check out my iGen4500. Everyone was impressed and we took dB readings at 20, 35 and 50'. At 50' it was about 52 dB and after some simple noise baffling using the cardboard box and a piece of plywood you cut down the rumble even more! I changed the oil at 19 hrs and though a bit tricky to do without spilling any oil, it wasn't too challenging. Unit ran flawlessly rest of the week. I'll be using it at other dry campling (no power/water/sewer) events throughout 2019 and look forward to enjoying this genny!!

I bought this a month ago to take on a trip to the Black Hills. It was our first trip out west with our new camper and I was a bit nervous about using a generator for Boondocking. This is by far the quietest generator I have ever owned. We could barely hear it from inside the camper last night. It was easy to setup and run. I would highly recommend this generator!!

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.

I purchase this a few weeks ago for RV. Only issue I had was starting it, it want to flood and gas was pouring out from underneath, I think the electric choke was stuck or it was not firing, took the side cover off and press the spark plug wire down and then it started right up.

What’s not to like about this generator, light enough to lift myself and easy as rolling a suitcase to move around. Right out of the box I followed the simple instructions, added oil that was included, connected the battery terminal, added gas and turned on the fuel valve. I flipped on the power switch and pressed the button and it started right up. After following the breaking instructions I used this generator for six hours straight without a hitch. With this handy backup my problems are solved and I can use it around the ranch for a number of odd jobs. The remote start is an amazing feature as well. Update: I’ve now used this generator several times and it is a pleasure to use, easily handles a full 30amp load in my living quarters horse trailer. I highly recommend this product.

I bought this generator to power my 44ft toy hauler. I opted out of the onboard generator because I’ve read these happen to be quieter and more fuel efficient. This generator powers almost everything we need and runs for hours on a single tank. If you have a 50 amp trailer you may not be able to run both a/c but besides that, this generator is perfect.

The iGen 4500 inverter generator fits the bill perfectly for my needs. I am 74 yrs old and live in a modest size home. The generator runs very quiet compared to an open frame generator. A feature I'm sure my neighbors will appreciate when running. It provides enough power to run my lights, refrigerator , 8000 BTU window A/C and blower for my gas central air heater which would have been nice to have had during our power blackout here in Texas during that terrible freeze. Now as I mentioned at the start, I'm 74 and my health isn't what it use to be. No longer able to tote around heavy generators anymore. This little guy comes with two wheels in the back and a telescoping handle tucked under the front panel that makes moving it around easy. Another huge plus in my book is the ability to run 15 to 18 hrs on a 3.4 gal tank of gas!
