Great features

Borrowed my sons generator and we were so happy with it, we went out and purchased the same one...WESTINGHOUSE Mentioned it to my brother in law and he also went and purchased the same one!!! So quiet and very long run time on a tank of gas and runs our AC with no problem.

Quite, Remote start is great

We have only ran for 30 hours so far but it does run quite, we can sleep in are RV with it running. Disappointed that it would not run out of the box, we had to take it apart and attach some wires that came lose during shipping, apparently it is an issue and we found the fix online. Wish remote had a google between full power and low power.

Awesome generator

I purchased this not knowing a lot of people that had one. I am so glad I did I love the remote start it never hesitates to start right up and not have to deal with going outside and starting it. I am super impressed for a Gen4500 how light and easy to move. It’s definitely super user friendly with everything on it being labeled. With this being said I will definitely be recommending these generators to all my friends.

Came, Started and Ran ...

We need a generator for occasional power outages in South Texas. So we looked at a number of units and finally decided to buy this unit. The price was almost too good to be true. It came by freight just two days later, we looked up the start-up procedure and had it running in 5 Minutes. We couldn't try it in the house because we needed a converter cable, but we hooked up the house two days later. The genset purred like a kitten and powered everything (not 240 v devices) at around 2500w with ocassional spikes up to 3600w. This generator can easily be moved around by one person, it has sturdy plastic panels and is really quiet. Love it.

Easy setup and start

I bought this unit a couple of weeks ago, it took about 30 minutes to add the oil, connect the battery and add fuel. It started on the second attempt (after opening the fuel valve); I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it is compared with my old generator. Will be taking to my hunting camp in a couple of weeks for regular duty.

Enough Power & Quiet

Bought it for our 26ft RV for a trip with a bunch of friends. Place we were staying didn't have any hookups so we needed something. Generator had enough power to run everything we needed and still was running between 50%-75% capacity. What we really liked is how quiet it was compared to other generators others had.

Does not idle up with eco mode off.

I love this generator but every time my AC starts it lugs down and my direcTV resets whether eco mode is on or off. With AC running and fan on it shows 25% whether in eco0 mode or eco mode off. What do I need to do to get it to idle up to full speed?

Best Inverter / Generator on the Market: Quiet !!!

Best Inverter / Generator because it has ample start up power for a 30' Trailer with 30 Amp Service. Fuel efficient allows for extended operation on 3 gallons of gas. With reduced load easily over 15 hours of Ultra Quiet Run Time. WELL DONE WESTINGHOUSE!!!

Just what we needed!

We haven't had a chance to actually put it to use for an extended period. However, we have cranked it and used it to run our living quarters horse trailer for a bit. It works perfectly and is really quiet! Who needs to pay waaaay more for a H***a when you can have a Westinghouse for a whole lot less. It serves the same purpose! Love it! And we have already recommended to someone else we know wanting to purchase one!

Just Got it…impressed with initial quality

Just unboxed the igen4500…I am very pleased with the quality. It comes with Oil, remote start dongle, tool kit and clear instructions/service interval sheet. I did do research and found this as a highly rated generator. While I am not surprised with the features, I am very pleased with how solid it is, materials and fasteners are plastic and metal BUT are quality. Electronics appear to be robust and solid. The only real concern I have are how well the wheel will hold up as they are a weird high density rubber foam material…time will tell on that. I gave this a 4/5 since I just opened it and haven’t even put oil in it.
