Bought this for emergency power when outage occurs. Arrived today and I'm impressed by the way it's packaged, included accessories, ease of start-up, op manual that's easy to read, well planned. I don't have to read between the lines to try to translate what the pertinent info is. I'm going to put it through it's paces shortly and thoroughly expect it to perform well. Would probably give it a 5 star if I had run it today, but ran out of time. Deserves a 5 star if performance meets the design features.

I purchased the iGen 4500 the beginning of April, it arrived on time as stated. I have tested the iGen on my 50 amp travel trailer and preforms great. I will operate 1 A/C at a time (travel trailer has 2 A/C systems) along with other small appliances. The noise level is low and increases as a heavy load is added, however, I was able to have a conversion standing about 4 to 5 feet away without raising my voice. Very happy so far. My recommendation is if you have a RV get this unit you won't be disappointment.

Didn’t think I’d receive this generator with the known issue of a bad choke system. I figured after reading the reviews of a year ago this would have been remedied. Not so. Had to remove the air filter and stuck my finger in the choke hole to get it to start. After that it fired up on repeated occasions that day. Went out the next morning and got the same result of no starting. Will put a request into Westinghouse like many others and hope to get a fix it response. This has all the features of a good generator and I’m not disappointed about getting it, bugs in everything these days.

After extensive research on an affordable emergency backup generator for our home, we decided on an inverter generator instead. Newer energy efficient furnaces (the HVAC board) require clean power (THD <3%). Also the clean power this inverter produces would be plenty for our essentials (i.e. two furnaces, two fridges, sump pump and few lights), on top of this it is super quiet. So far so good and we couldn't be happier with our recent purchase!

Just returned from a camping trip and the iGen4500 did everything that I was hoping that it would do. The remote start was the selling point for me. It was quiet and started right up. It is heavy, but the product description told me that. I am looking forward to many more camping trips!

I bought this generator, and have installed in our race car trailer. It runs everything from air compressor, lights, fridge and induction hot plate. The key fob works great. Except if you leave the master switch on, for a while it will drain the battery. To solve this problem. I have relocated the master switch to the front on the work bench. Now when I need the generator I turn on the switch and push on, on the remote. When finished using the generator I simply turn off the main power.

I just received the product and proceeded with the minimal assembly. Just plug the battery add oil and gas and start. It started with no issues. The user manual and other instructions are complete and easy to follow. It ran for about one hour and worked flawlessly . I am looking forward to run it under real conditions for several hours.

Started on first try. Runs very quiet. Bought this for home backup power for refrigerator, lights, tv, etc. Have not had the chance to test it fully yet but liking it so far. Remote start is nice as well. Having the pull handle and wheels is really convenient..

Received by FedEx when promised, great condition. Went over instruction sheet. Added oil, fuel and hooked up the battery. Pushed the start button and started right up. This is a quality piece of equipment. Well made, easy to use, plenty of power and the noise level is fantastic. What more could you ask for.

Just got the igen4500 and ran it through the break in. No metal whatsoever in the oil after the 1st hour. Changed oil and ran another hour with same results. Put a load on the generator and ran for another hour. Works great! No choke issues. This is a quiet generator and worth every penny IMO.
