Everything you demand

I was worried after the many reviews, but this is a great generator. After the breaking process, I took this to my hunting camp. For 48 hours this little giant was a power horse. -Very quiet -Fuel consumption - one fuel tank lasted 21 hours with heater, microwave, and trailer usage. -Easy to transport ( I could load this in my truck be myself unlike my old one) I did install an hours meter on before using the machine.

Never go camping without it!

Our family decided to buy the iGen4500 to be done with running two generators to accommodate our RV. We couldn't be happier with all the features that this model offers including remote start. The remote start was a first for us and is now and forevermore a requirement. The fact that there is an "eco" mode is a plus as well. Makes weekends, dry camping, at the lake a lot easier! Five stars!

Great Generator for my MinniWinnie

Bought the iGen4500 to run my MinnieWinnie, to help power equipment for local music Festivle Equipment and back up for power outage. Have utilzed the first two reasons and been well pleased. Runs quiet, easy to operate and move. The wheels and telescoping handle make loading and moving doable.

Best bang for your buck

Exceptional workmanship. Well thought out design. There are two companies that dominate the market for campers/RV crowd and this generator came to dominate the game. Remote start, dual fuel, longer run time, quieter than stated, higher running watts so you don't have to worry about what you can run in your camper. I couldn't ask for anything more. Oh, and have the price of the competition with the same quality.

Easy to set up and great features

I just purchased this generator and have not used it yet but Westinghouse thinks of everything including a good funnel for filling the oil. It appears to be good quality and they have made hooking up the battery even easier with just a plug in. Outstanding features. The layout of the front is not what is shown in the manual so that is something they could improve a little. Once I try it I will probably give it 5 stars.

Excellent from the outset

I just picked up my generator today. We hooked up the battery and put the oil and gas in, and it cranked on the very first try. Also cranked easily with the remote. We stood within a foot of it, without a load, and had a conversation in a normal voice. I put a small load on it, and it barely increased the volume. Follow the instruction of not overfilling the oil. We thought we had a leak, but putting the whole bottle of oil (included) actually filled it enough to leak out on the ground a little. After the initial droplets, it stopped completely. I am looking forward to better weather so we can go camping and actually use it, but at this time, it's truly money well spent!

Fantastic generator

Bought this just in time for an ice storm here in Maine, two hours into the storm and we lost power.. Filled the new generator with oil, and fresh clean gas, it started on the 2nd pull. I tried the remote start also and it worked great. I am quite surprised at just how quite this thing is, especially compared to my Champion open frame generator that I have. I ran my fridge and heating system nd a few lights, it was no biggie for he generator to handle. I hope it lasts a long time without issues.

Exceeded my expectations

Bought this inverter generator for my 30 amp TT and oh man let me tell you I was surprised. First off after unboxing it and got it ready with oul and gas it started right up with the remote start, push start and pull start. Then after it was running I plugged my TT into it and went inside started turning everything on that would possibly run on shore power. As I was sitting inside my TT I couldn't even hear it running compared to my other generator. So now when I go dry camping I dont have to listen to my loud generator. Very pleased with my purchase of the product and a great investment.

Impressive

This is an initial impression since I just received the generator, set it up, & tested it to power my fifth wheel rv. I've had 2 Honda eu2000i gens run in parallel for the last 10 years of fulltime travel. This iGen4500 is to replace the Hondas. It has slightly more power than the 2 Hondas together, but with electric start, it is much more convenient to use.My main concern was if this would be as quiet as the Hondas. I carry & use the gen in my truck bed. I tested both the Hondas & the iGen4500 in my truck bed with a decibel meter, both at idle & while powering my air conditioner. I was surprised to find the iGen4500 produced the exact same decibel levels as the Hondas under both conditions. I'm really looking forward to the quietness & the convenience of electric remote start.

Great product

2nd iGen4500 we purchased. 1st one worked great for our class B motorhome. let it go when we sold the motorhome. we live in Florida, so purchased 2nd one for hurricane season. electric start is great. runs quiet and provides all the power we need. have recommended this product to many others.
