I own two other open frame generators that would wake the dead. Ashamed to even run them during a power failure much less camping. Along comes the IGEN 4500. This generator beats a Honda - regardess of what anyone else says. It's that quiet! And the power, well, it can run anything in my 38' Montana fifth wheel and not even breathe hard. The fit and finish are beyond what I had hoped for. And the front panel, well it looks like it would be at home in a space ship. Beautiful as well as extremely functional. Kudos to Westinghouse for such a fantastic generator. It's that good! In my opinion, it's superior to anything with this much power that's on the market today. I'm super impressed and very happy with my purchase. If your considering a high output inverter generator, look no further - quit shopping and net-trolling for comparisons - just buy it. You won't regret it!!

When up around 7500 feet the automatic choke puts out toon much fuel and the unit will not start. I have to remove cover and manually adjust the choke to get it to start. The manual adjustment means the remote start does not work. I am hoping tech support has a solution which retains the remote start function.

I bought this generator a couple weeks ago. The shipping was a joke. It took forever. The gas lid gas had some rust on it but I knew it from the reviews I read. If u order a cover for it BEWARE they put it on the very top. Cut mine completely in half opening box. Just did first oil change and very happy so far.

I bought a Champion 3500 and returned it because it would not work right strait from the box. A friend of mine had this one and we hooked it up to my 5th wheel and it worked great. I love how it's light enough so I can load it in the 5th wheel with no help. It is so much quieter then the Champion as well. I would recommend this to anyone looking to purchase one

I bought this generator for my mini donut trailer about a month ago and it’s been wonderful. I’ve had several vendors come up and ask how I liked it and that it was much more quieter than other brands. Electric start is quick and remote start is nice for easy setup. The 3 gallon tank is nice at long events so that you don’t have to refill during.

The unit started upon receipt and adding the provided oil. We went dry camping and the genset worked initially. I started having issues later that day. Would crank and not start. Then after a bit, would start. The next morning, no joy.Would not start at all, just crank. I looked up i4500 issues and found there is a Westinghouse service bulletin. I followed the instructions, but found that I needed to remove the side cover to get to the connector area. Bottom connector was almost out. Reseated connector and wrapped with electrical tape to ensure it doesn’t happen again. Put the covers back on and it works perfectly now. Here’s to hoping that was the only issue. MY SUGGESTION: Perform the below check of the connectors as soon as you receive the unit. It might save you some campground headaches.

Just received my I Gen 4500 and am very impressed so far and have not even started it yet. It is a beautiful Generator and am sure it will perform perfect for my Travel Trailer I am so glad I spent a bit more to get more power and wattage. Is is a bit heavy but moving it is quite easy with the handle and Built in Wheels.

I bought this inverter/generator this week in the event that our power goes out during a storm or for any other reason. It was so easy to set up and crank. It runs super smooth and is very quiet. When you use the ECO feature it is even quieter. This generator is perfect for my temporary needs when we lose our power.

We bought this unit three weeks ago and we are in the "Break-In" stage of the process. The unit has many monitoring features that allows you to observe the level at which the generator is operating. These features give you a comforting feeling that the generator is working at an optimal capacity.

I bought this unit in March 2021, when I received the unit and seen the outside of box, I was just sure I had a broken or scuffed unit! Much to my surprise the unit was not even touched, all due to heavy foam packing protection, that did its Job . Zero defects. I looked the unit over , removed battery door and connected battery , it was a little bit of a chore to hook up plug as it’s just long enough to work. Big hands don’t help. Located oil fill area, by the way who ever designed the very nice plastic fill funnel that actually threads into the fill hole it’s a Rubber seal washer is a Genuis , no mess and it flat works, keeping this. Filled with oil supplies. Reinstall dipstick and always full. Removed fuel cap and and added about a quart of fuel..Turned unit on as well as Fuel , and hit starter button. Fired right up , like I just stopped it ? Great ! Test run everything worked . Fuel,showed,low, I shut off and filled the tank ! Restarts and gauge showed 21 hrs run time , pretty neat .After running for about five minutes hooked to RV, It actually has the 30 amp rv plug , no other adaptor needed . Win! Ran lights and etc! Five minutes , turned on 15 K ac , unit took the load right off, checked load , stated 25%, ok, so I turned on second 15k. Ac, boom checked stayed with load and showed 50 % duty , also each time I put load on time clocked followed with new run time,(Keep in mind that the temp when I did this is like 65 outside .) might change at 100 degrees . But I was very impressed , I ran it for about to hours , changing from one ac to normal lights and back to both Ac units . The Tow handle is a big plus .
