Fired right up first time with remote start

I did a lot of shopping before I selected this unit. Barely will fit under new bed cover at 20-1/2”. Unit measures right at 20-3/8”. Running fine for a 4 hour break in. Seems to be working just fine. Ran it out of gas. Put in another couple liters and will let it run dry. Cycling loads for 269w to 1.4kW. A little loud but this had one of the lowest dB ratings. Can still talk over it.

Love the way it is set up.

Just received this iGen4500c (one of two) and I love this set up. Poured the oil in, added some gas and hooked up the battery. A flip of the switch, a press of the button and it started right up. It ran smooth as silk immediately. Plugged it all kinds of power tools to vary the load and it did not skip a beat. I ran it for a 30 minute period to begin the break in. I was very happy with how quiet this beast is. Speaks softly and puts out a lot of power. Next I will hook this one to it's brother that I also just received (two of two) with the parallel hook up and run my 5th wheel trailer, which is why I bought two. I have no doubt they will handle everything just like they should. Control panel gives a lot of info, some info you don't notice at first. The fuel gauge and power output percentage are nice LED level gauges on both sides of LED readout gauge. The only two complaints I have is that gas consumption on LED gauge is only in liters and not gallons and that there are some sharp edges around the area where the battery goes. Scratched up my arm well but I have "old man skin".

iGen4500

After reading reviews of good and bad, and watching YouTube videos if I happen to get one with the Choke issue I decided to order one ,just like a lot of reviews said choke comes unplugged in shipping I had that happen to me, wouldn't start so pulled sides off plugged choke wire back in and boom fired right up and no problems since, runs everything on rv and very quiet. Glad I made purchase

Very complete accessories package

I just got the initial set up completed and I am very pleased with the included accessories. A funnel, tool kit and the engine oil. Just had to add gas. The unit seems to have some stress marks in the plastic and it does make an “unusual” rattle under load. I am boing the break in time now and I’ll see if anything changes. Slightly louder than I expected but not a deal killer. I love the electric/remote start.

Nice Looking Generator

I read all the reviews and decided to pull the trigger, picked it up today and it's a balmy 31 out. Added oil & fuel, hooked up the battery and hit the go button! And it fired right up! Sounds great and ran a test tool just fine. Pretty happy at the moment, hopefully it holds up well over the long term.

Super Quiet

I bought this month ago after much research for my travel trailer. I did not want to spend the money on the "H" brand generator. I found several comparisons online and really liked the digital display that the other brand didn't have so I decided on the iGen4500. I have about 30 hrs on it and so far power's everything g with ease. May not quite be as quiet as the H but beat my expectations for noise level and couldn't be more please with the performance and

Goodt buy

I am a 79-year-old widow who lives alone. The power goes off often in our area. I really needed this generator and I know I am going to be happy with it. I am petite, but I have no problems rolling it around. It is easy to start , and it is going to be easy for me to do routine maintenance. The hardest part was lifting the generator high enough so I could read the serial number ( on the bottom) that is required to do this review. LOL.

Easy Start Up

I did a lot of research on this before buying it and I am so glad that it bought this unit. Instructions were incredibly easy to follow and the unit started on the first try. It’s been running for about an hour now and is incredibly quiet, easy to use and I’m very excited to have this. This is my first generator, I would highly recommend this brand and model is I think it will be a valuable asset for years to come.

Perfect generator for all your mobile needs

I purchased this generator to power my boat while away from dock. It is very quiet and runs two A/C units, microwave, TVs, and all power outlets with no problems. The remote control function is very nice to start the unit up with out having to go to unit. I highly recommend this generator!

Great design

This would get 5 stars if it wasn't for the choke not being plugged into the control board as the unit would not start after following the start up to a T. I went on You Tube and found that these units are being shipped out without the choke being connected, I opened up the unit and plugged it in and it started on the next attempt. I hope this isn't an indication of things to come. It surprisingly quiet
