Best Value

Just purchased a week ago, but in setting up and first start, I'm impressed. Started right up and was more quite than expected. I plugged in a 1400 watt electric heater, and the generator did not even hesitate. Love the pull out handle. Just a great generator with so many useful features.

Great machine

This was an amazing machine I seriously recommend it to anyone above any other generator. Reason is because it is very very quiet holds a lot of gas has a energy efficient mode a remote that's wonderful when you're in your camper it just push of a button and it turns on and is very reliable

Happy

Powers all of my fifth wheel camper single A/C. Changed oil after first day of use (12 hours). Would recommend to change oil way earlier. Did have a lot of metallic in the oil. Ran great started right up. Around hour 6 it started surging and had to clean carburetor jet. But it is definitely louder than a Honda 3000. Like the digital display but wish you could change unit of measurement. Does burn the grass behind generator. Overall good generator so far.

Definitely like how quiet

Just purchased and am impressed by how quiet it is and fuel capacity is great for overnight runs. So far I’m very impressed by the remote and electric start. Only down fall which is minute is the oil fill cap is hard to get my big hand in to restart to put back on.

Outstanding design!

As a mechanical engineer with 40+ years designing advanced military products I am thoroughly impressed, and appreciate the effort that went in to developing this product. The user interface is excellent, and it appears that quality components were used throughout. The instructions/user manual are clear and complete, and the initial setup was straightforward. It started right up with the first push of the start button, and the reasonably-low sound level is a big plus. At this point I only have two suggestions: 1) the Battery Compartment Door could be a little larger -- manipulating the battery in place and strapping it down is slightly inconvenient, and 2) the font size of the labeling and marking print could be larger. Otherwise, my hat's off to you; Bravo!

Everything is in the box 'cpet the fuel !!

Took less than an hour to get the generator up and running, neighbor giggled when I had him press the "on" button on the included fob and the generator started producing power. Great product that's the half the price of brand "H". And the iGen4500 makes MORE power.

VERY Pleased!

Having done lots of on-line searching and comparing, iGen4500 came out on top of my list for brand and model. It appears to be of sturdy build, works (almost) as advertised, and has some great extra features. Sadly, they have still not fixed the choke issue, nor the illuminated power-on switch. And just to nit-pick, they should have spared a couple more inches to the battery connect wire. Old, arthritic fingers can barely get into the limited space. And the hold-down for the battery strap clip isn't notched enough (molded plastic flaw), the clip doesn't stay firm. Again, not really complaining, just mentioning. On the cool side; The Amazon ad didn't even showcase the retractable pull bar! Completely out of the way until needed, pulls out like a suitcase on wheels. The oil service funnel screws into the oil fill port preventing spillage. There's enough space in the battery area to store the funnel, rag, spark plug wrench, etc, and an extra bottle of oil. Gotta love the control panel. Digital read-out gives more info than others, and all info is useful. (Voltage, Load %, Watts, Fuel level, Remaining run time, and Total hours. Now we'll see how well it holds up. Again, I'm very happy with it so far. I'm looking forward to Westinghouse's fix or at least workarounds for the choke and ignition light.

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

Great feature

I’ve been shopping for an InGen for about a year. This one was available at the right price with right feature. I wanted a gen that could power my Rv AC or my refrigerator and freezer at home (power outages) . This one fits the bill with a large gas tank, wheels, 20 amp output and digital readout.
