After numerous attempts to start this generator for the first time, I struggled with it until I went online a couple of times and looked at pictures of what could be causing the problem. Picture was hard to see. Finally got it started after about 2 hours! Now it starts like a champ!

I love the retractable handle for transporting... this thing is bigger than it looks in the pictures. The remote start ability from 80-90 feet away is great, as well as the button start. If all else fails, there's the old-school pull-start option, also. Follow directions in the manual and, which is easy, but also detailed and you can be up and running very quickly.

It ran great out of the box, but a month later it would not start. Talked to customer support several times and finally I took all the outer panels off and found a plug hanging loose. This must have been loose from the factory and finally disconnected and fell off. It now starts fine.

Please note! We got ours to run our 50 amp RV camper trailer when dry camping during deer season and are having issues with it revving up for no reason. We are still trying to figure out this issue but when speaking with Westinghouse customer service we were told this inverter may be too small for our camper - even though we are only running 30 amps, not the full 50. I do like the remote start and quiet running of the machine.

I’ve been researching generators for the last three months I bought two they did not work to my specifications I returned them and I finally bought the Westinghouse 4500. This generator is definitely a great generator it is enough power to run everything I need to and some.

Just received the Igen 4500 gas generator with remote start. Filled it with oil and gas. It started right up. I ran it for a 2 hours and it ran smooth and very quiet for a generator of its size. The wife was in the house and didn't even know i started it. I am looking forward to using it when we go camping and as back up power for our house. I hope it

Amazed at how quiet and easy it is to use. The push button start is perfect, you do have to leave the battery switch on but as long as your battery is charge that is not a problem at all. The Eco mode is scary quiet. I though it would be to heavy for one person to lift andI would say its not really that bad really, heavy yes but not that bad. Over all I have been very happy only time will truly tell but so far so good.

My brother in law purchased this generator for his camping needs. I was impressed with the quiet, easy start up of the generator that I purchased one for myself! My wife will be able to start it too. She had problems pulling the cord on our old generator.

Got my iGen5000 a month ago and I've put 15 hours on it so far. Works just as advertised, and I love the key fob start/stop. Only problem is the fuel gauge consistently reads about 40% the actual amount of fuel. Other gauges in the data readout that use the fuel gauge also affected.

Excellent product. Followed easy quick startup directions and it started up and ran for an hour without issue. Powered down and restarted again without issue. Extremely quite. Looks like a good investment. Will use with a transfer switch set-up to power all essential items in my enitre 2600 sq ft. condo as long as I leave the air conditioning off.
