Very Quiet

We needed a quiet generator option for our rv. After much research we decided this was the generator for us. It did not disappoint. We can have a conversation right next to the generator and don't have to raise our voices. We are happy and so are our neighbors!

Powerful Generator

Purchased this generator to power the Rockwood UltraLite 28 ft 5th wheel with two A/C units. In the test of the Generator, I found that the generator performed outstanding. Connected to the generator with an RV 30A to RV 50A cable. Fired it up and started the testing. It powered one A/C unit and the microwave, but the dual A/C being turned on at the same time caused the circuit breaker on the generator to POP! Understanding since it will exceed the generator's ratings. Did find it really quiet and even when demand was high, you could still have a conversation within feet of the device without shouting, or talking loud. Ran the A/C, Microwave, and other in house electrical items without any power outages. the fuel useage was really remarkable. It said 18hrs on 25% demand. With all that was connected and running, I found the generator fuel level lasted more than i would have thought. Would I purchase this generator again, Yes without any reservations. If you need a powerful little generator that does a great job, maintains economy, and is ready to power your RV, this is it.

Portable generator that I needed

The iGEN4500 came in after 4 days and opened it yestrday. Very well made and after following the instructions, it powered immediately. Easy to operate and after 4 hours turned is off. I am satisfied with it. I should have rated it 5 STARS but due to its weight, I only rated it 4 STARS. I will buy another one that I can just carry in and out of my Pick Up truck.

Justo lo que necesitaba

Ayer compre este generador inverter y rapido lo probe y realmente me encendio toda la casa! Lo mejor de todo es que lo hizo en el modo eco y el ruido era tan poco que creo q fue la mejor inversion! Me prendio demas de todo una nevera y un freezer pequeño y no llego ni al 20% de consumo energético!

Runs good “now”

There is a known problem and I had read about it so I was aware of it with the choke. Sure enough when it arrived and I put the battery and oil in then tried to start it. It would not start!! After I took the sides off and put the wire clip back on it fired right up and runs great!!

Like it

We bought this after looking at reports and reviews on a site. Bought this one mainly because it had the highest power rating and the lowest noise rating (52dba). While it is pretty quite, 52 dba is not as quite as I thought, but still, we could not hear it running from inside the house or on the other side of the house. We only plan to run this in a power outage, so I doubt anyone would complain during that time. I tested a bunch of stuff running at the same time: Refrigerator, sander, shop vac, and some lights. No problems with this load. The eco mode is nice. makes it run a little more quietly. We intend to use this to charge a couple of big batteries during a power outage. Those will be swapped back and forth for inside use. That way, we only need to run the generator long enough to charge a battery.

Igen 4500 troubles but Still love it!

I wrote a review a couple days ago had a little trouble getting it started at first, thought it had something to do with having to hold the start button till the green light blinking then taping the start button but that quit working. I ended up finding after all that it was just like other bad reviews the automatic choke was not working, I opened the face and the side panel with the pull start cord on it and found the choke wiring harness was unplugged. I did a lot of research before buying this generator and the only bad reviews were because of this same problem so was kind of expecting it. The other bad reviews go back a couple of years so am surprised they haven’t figured out a fix for this issue yet but a simple fix if slightly mechanically inclined and have a philips screw driver and a 10mm socket. After plugging in harness it starts on the first try every time,

Effortless

I was in the market for a new generator ASAP. After searching the web, I came across Westinghouse. I've never owned one of their products previously, but everything about this generator was intriguing. From the wattage, RV plug, USB's, push start, pull start, remote start, battery charger, run time, digital output gauges even for the fuel level, hidden handle for toting it around, and most of all the price. For all the functionalities this thing has, nothing else compares for the cost. I received my generator in less than 2 full days, followed the easy step by step instructions, and started it right up, it's pretty easy. First add oil, second add gas, third plug in the battery, lastly push the start button. Couldn't be easier. Once it was running, my wife and I had a normal conversation standing right next to it. We are both shocked with how quiet this thing is, even when it's not running on ECO mode. As an electrician I know Westinghouse has in the electrical industry for years. So why not trust them when it comes to a generator.

Good First Impression

I purchased this in advance of hurricane season. I don't need a whole house generator and this is the perfect size to power what I need at about 50% load. Setup was easy. The instructions weren't kidding about filling oil if factory oil still remained in the engine. Battery was fully charged on receipt. Started right up and much quieter than other generators we've had.The carrying handle is convenient. Easy to follow maintenance instructions which I will follow, but I really hope I don't have to use it for what I bought it for.
