So easy to start

Luckily, we have not needed to use this generator yet. But it was very easy to set-up. And I can already tell that it is so easy to start. It also seems to run a bit quieter than our old generator. I like the remote control feature too! I have no doubt that it will be easy to use when the need arises.

Great unboxing/start-up

Received the product fast and it arrived fast without any damage to the box. Once i unboxed the generator the only thing I noticed was the casing where the molds are created, one piece had a few small imperfections. Aside from that everything was great.after adding oil, fuel, and connecting the plug for the battery it fired right up. I ran it for about 30 minutes without a load for break-in and will run it for about an hour tomorrow before placing any load on it. It is super quiet at idle and while running. Would recommend this product to anyone that requires this much power.

Igen5000

Bought this genny to run my camper. It was a vacation saver. Thru several days of over 95 degrees, the genny performed flawlessly keeping our camper cool for when we needed a break from the heat without guzzling jug after jug of gas. Though not as quiet as a 2000 watt genny, it did not cause any disturbance. Great product.

Overall good reliable generator

We purchased this last year prior to our move to a colder climate. We lost power this past week for 2 days and other than the fact that the electric start button had trouble the generator worked and kept our fridge going and a few lights on. It wasn't too loud and we had no trouble. I would like to figure out the electric start but that is my only complaint.

Generator is shipped containing some oil

I think it is a quality generator, but one thing I did not appreciate was that the amount of oil provided was more than the generator needed to start. The manual says to add that volume, yet it overflowed and created a large mess for me to deal with during the break-in. It also says in the manual that the generator is shipped without oil. Simply send the amount of oil that the generator needs for start-up so we do not have that issue.

GREAT POWER, Easy to use

Just took delivery yesterday and it took no time to set everything up. Bought it for a small RV and it handled every power requirement with ease; AC, lights, appliances, microwave, water heater and coffee maker. From my research this was the best on the market for quiet operation and power.

Packed With Features

Picked up this generator for my travel trailer. Plenty of power with room to spare for my trailer. Love the remote start, no more getting out of the trailer to start up the generator. Nice and quiet too, even with a load on it. But at idle, very very quiet, and even more so with the eco mode turned on. All and all I'm very happy with this unit.

Biggest Bang for the Buck

Bought this for the 2019 camping season. after researching generators to run 30 amp camper load, the iGen 4500 seamed to be the perfect fit. I absolutely was not disappointed. Easy starts, quiet operation and great price was a win-win-win. I have had no issues to date and highly recommend this generator!

Operations

This generator was doing very well and was a very quiet one while it lasted. Something happened and it stopped running, could not get it to start back up. I took it to Ludwig Saw & Tool in Waco,Tx. (a registered place to work on Westinghouse generators). Its been setting there for a long time waiting to get worked on. The finally called me today and said the generator was not registered so hopefully that has been completed now. Any help wold be greatly appreciated!
