All as described!

Got this generator as a Christmas present from my wife. After looking at several different brands and models, I told her that this is one is my preference. It was easy to set up and started on the very first push of the starter button. Have yet to put it under full load, but the items that I powered with it posed no problem. If I had complain about something, it would be the rubber strap that holds the battery. Never could get it to stay properly, but have substituted a velcro strap that works perfectly. Great product!

quiet, powerful, ease of use, electric start

bought this to power my rv and impressed with the power and the ease of use. Straight out of the box did the first time prep work to run and this started on the 4th pull, plugged in some electric heaters to create a current draw, handled all of this beautifully, went inside and couldn't even hear this generator running. love the electric start and remote start

Very easy operation

My iGen2500 arrived on time and it took less than 10 min to prepare for start. The engine started just fine on the very first pull - impressive. Easily powers a bathroom heater, will have to check other items later. Looks like a great deal for the money so far.

WORKED AS ADVERTIZED.

All items listed on package were included, but Manual description of battery hook-up and its attachment to the generator were not the same as the actual configuation. Battery is connected to the generator using a plug rather than directly from the battery wires, and is secured to the generator using a rubber strap.

Great inverter!

Bought this about a week ago and so far, really great. Starts right up, runs very quiet and has the power needed. Only issue is changing the oil could be a little less messy. Should have a funnel system going to the hole. Other than that couldn't be more pleased. Time will tell!

Quiet and Powerful

Update to my Review of 4 days ago. We are still very happy with the iGen 4500, just wanted to report on small issue of the automatic choke. Thanks to YouTube, I found an easy to follow repair. Seems the automatic choke was not connected to the control module from the factory. Took about 30 minutes to repair myself. As stated, we are still very happy with the iGen4500. This thing is amazing!! Love the remote start. And, yes, it will handle the A/C on our Camper without any problem.

Very quiet nice features easy to start

Purchased the unit to run my a/c , refrigerator and microwave on my enclosed trailer. Has some really nice features like the RV plug, electric start and digital readout. There's really nothing I don't like about it. I do wish they would honor the bonus gift selection and send me the generator cover considering that's what most people would select.

Very quiet

Bought this generator to replace one that had become unreliable (different brand) We use it to power our BBQ trailer. I came as described and after going through the check list and putting the oil and fuel in it, it fire right off after just 3 pulls. Put it on the supplied charger and tried the remote start the next day. Started right up and very quiet even when not in eco mode. Almost as quiet as my Honda 7000 that I use for my travel trailer. Will give is a good run at the next cook off and re-edit this review after afterwards

Exceeds expectations

I purchased the iGen4500 for our fifth wheel trailer and expect to purchase a second to run in parralel for a home back up. So far, thru break in and initial run in and test, the generator has not disappointed. The manufacture, fit and finish, and overall quality is impressive. First real test in two weeks. jh

Great Features

This is the second generator I purchased. I'm so glad I spent the extra money for this model. It is exactly what we were looking for. All of the features make it so easy to use. We have had it for a month now and are confident we will be ready for the next power outage.
