Powerful quiet generator

Bought this to operate my camper while boondocking. This will also allow us to utilize our camper in the event we lose power. Light weight and easy to use. I do wish it had a fuel shut off valve to allow fuel to not sit in the carburetor after turning off.

Powerful and quiet!

Hurricane Isais took our power and I was committed to purchasing a generator before the next storm. I thoroughly research and knew I wanted an inverter generator. The Westinghouse IGen4500 was the largest resonably prices one on the market. It has exceeded my expectations!

Incredibly quiet!

Bought this generator for the off shore camping we do. It’s so quiet and starts right up. I love the remote so we can start it up right inside our trailer. Love that I don’t have to pull start it as my shoulder is messed up. We are really happy with this purchase.

We will see

I bought a second i gen 4500 to hook up for parallel power to get 50 amp. I still have to stage turning on 2 ac units despite the 50 amp paralleled power. It runs a bit rougher than the first one. Trips the breaker evey once in a while. I will take it to the service center and see what happens. The biggest issue is having to change the oil every 50 hours. That is not convenient to do while camping. The access panel needs to be bigger to allow for an easier change of oil.

So far so good

Had to wait 3 weeks to receive this item, but so far so good! Well worth the wait, fired up right away and ran my 15k a/c on my camper no problem. One little issue with the plastic case being damaged during the shipping. Overall quiet as advertised!!

Perfect Size and great price!

Just purchased this product for our usage for Farmers Markets and on farm general use. Very good quality , very well packaged, nice quality of manufacturing, and very easy to start . Ran a full size freezer ( lay down ) and a full size side by side refrigerator with doors open to kick on compressors and didn’t even make this hoss bow down. I ran them in ECO mode to see if it would boggle and nothing! Very impressed!!

Very good so far!

Bought this 4 months ago, and the ONLY problem I had with it was finding the serial number, which turned out to be just below the exhaust port. (Due to my own laziness I didn't get around to calling Westinghouse for help for several weeks, and then due to health and personal maneuverability reasons I had to wait till my son could help me. That was another few weeks ago, and only now am I finally getting around to registering and writing this review. NONE OF THAT is the fault of Westinghouse!) Following the simple instructions, my son helped me un-box the unit, fill the oil, add a small amount of gas and get it started. It took several tries at first, but eventually fired up and ran fine. I shut it off, waited a few minutes, and then it started again on the first try. I repeated this several times. So far I'm very confident in this generator. It runs quiet and that was important to me.

Great out of the Box

Gen is in perfect condition right out of the box. Manuel, quick start guide, funnel, charger, spark plug wrench and remote all packaged well in the box. Easy setup, easy to roll around and instructions are easy to understand. I have not started it yet, will follow up on review after break in period. I bought this to use with my RV which has 1500 btu AC.

Today I received my IGen4500 inverter-generator

I removed it from the box, connected the battery, installed the supplied oil, filled the gas tank, turned on the fuel, turned on the battery, pressed the start button and immediately it purred to life. I connected my heat gun and it worked. My only disappointment is that the digital read out is in metric liters and kilowatts. I did a google search and found charts to convert them (see attached).

QUITE AS A MOUSE

i just received my igen 4500. the instructions were simple to follow. The best part of this was the generator started on the first touch of the remote. The generator is a little heavy for a 63 year old to carry. Well, the built in handle for rolling the generator came in handy. Great product.
