Just rec'd today....followed the ez setup, filled with oil, fuel, and connected battery that was fully charged. followed the startup procedure and....as advertised, fired right up, quiet, etc. I am breaking it in with eco on and off with no load. This is replacing a previous smaller output rv ready gen.

My wife and I recently purchased our first travel trailer (Wolf Pup Black Label) and we intend to camp sometimes in areas where there are no electrical hook-ups. I did a lot of research into RV generators prior to purchasing the Westinghouse iGEN5000. With 5000 watts of start-up power and 3900 watts continuous, this generator has ample power output to meet our needs - even with an output derating for higher elevations. It was easy to set up and is easy to operate. It is also relatively quiet. We are fully satisfied and would recommend this unit to others who have fairly light power requirements.

Only used for a short time but seems to work well. 1 big problem was automatic choke was disconnected during shipping and would not start. Seems to be an easy fix and a constant problem with this unit. I searched online found many others with the same issue. I resolved the issue fairly quickly but not after being very frustrated it wouldn't start. Manufacturer should have this problem resolved.

Had over a month and it hasn't had one gliche. Love the remote start. Has charged my rv batteries quicker and to full charge where my old gen did not. recommend highly. Plus it is very quiet and runs low when on eco mode. Have not added gas since 1st trip. Love that.

My brother-in-law bought one last year and I was impressed with it, then my neighbor bought one a few months ago. We all went primitive camping, and I had the oldest and loudest generator there. Seeing how this generator operates and many of the functions I decided to get one. Not disappointment at all, like how quite it is and does what I need for camping. Few features I didn't think I needed but really like, the remote start! That is nice for the mornings and don’t have to walk out of the camper to start it.

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.

Just got it a couple days ago, so haven't got to use it. We got everything hooked up and fired it up. Hooked it up to camper and turned ac on and it did what it was suppose to do. So much quieter than my previous generators. Going camping next week with it.

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.

This is my second i4500 generator, bought the first one a couple years ago for my travel trailer and I have had no issues! Bought a 5th wheel trailer a couple months ago and need 50 amp service so the cheapest route was to buy another i4500 and the paralleling cable! Works great! Great generators for the money!

This generator has features and power output better and higher than any other in its class. The problem is that if u get one where everything works as it should, you're lucky. My first one, the remote didn't work, the start stop button didn't work. I was only able to get it started only by the pull starter. Once i got it started the choke wouldn't shut off. Retuned that one and ordered another. On the second, the remote start would work, but using the remote stop would shut it down where it would immediately restart. And it only operates in economy mode, the switch has no effect. So,I pulled all the panels off and disconnected and reconnected every connector I could find. That fixed the remote stop but I still cannot take it out of economy mode. I can live with that until I call their support. Bummer they're out of covers for the bonus gift. So, 5 stars for features and 3 stars for them having a hard time delivering one without problems.
