I love the remote start in the fuel efficiency!

I bought this last fall. Finally got a chance to use it for the first time camping last weekend. It started and worked excellent I absolutely love it! the only dislike I have is how you have to change the oil but other than that it's a perfect little machine

Best Bang for the Buck!

After watching plenty of reviews on inverter generators, the Igen4500 was able to check all the boxes. I had bought this unit to power our 28ft. travel trailer without having to worry about the need for a second generator to have enough power. It's hefty (just under 100lbs) but can definitely get the job done, oh, and it's quiet too.

Good featurres, started right up

This is a very early review, since I just received my 1Gen4500 yesterday. I made the purchase because of the low noise level, long run time, and data center for tracking run time, power output, remaining fuel, etc. I unpacked the box, connected the battery, filled with oil and gas, pushed the start button and it fired right up. Very easy, smooth and quiet just as advertised. I will give more information as things progress. Very happy so far, and feeling much more secure amid power outages.

Great Generator

Just purchased my second IGen4500 after how good the first has done. Unboxed the first one and immediately took it hunting to run my trailer. Fired up great and ran in 15-20 degree weather with no problems all week. Fuel consumption is awesome with eco setting. Generator is very quiet and even when it is 3 am. Can’t wait to parallel these.

GREAT FEATURES.

I bought this 2 months ago. Took it camping over the weekend, it is so quiet. We could sit around the camp fire and talk without it bothering us. It allows me to know how many hours I have on gas. It has a key fob so I could crank it from inside the camper.

IGen 4500.

Just bought the IGen 4500 generator and very happy so far. Packaging was good. Instructions for start up was good. Nice to have the funnel and oil to add right away. Battery was a bit weak but managed to start it after three attempts. Nice charger supplied for the battery. Pretty darn quiet. I'm looking forward to powering up my camper for bow season in Wisconsin this next week.

Great generator but could use a few more features

This is a great generator but it could use a few more features. It comes with everything you need to get started and everything is pretty easy to use. I do have some suggestions for improvements: The access panel to the engine/choke should be something really easy rather than unscrewing a bunch of screws. If your battery is dead, then you need to access this compartment to put it on full choke before you start with the rip cord. Also, people rarely use their generator everyday so it will be in storage for some time. The manual then suggests to remove the fuel from the float, which again, you need to get to it through the access panel on the side by unscrewing everything. This should be really easy to get to. This inverter generator is quiet but don’t expect it to be whisper quiet. My neighborhood home lots are 40 feet wide, and my neighbor would definitely hear my generator on, even on eco mode. Overall, I’m happy with the generator and it’s great to have some peace of mind.

Has all the features that one would need !!!

I bought this for a backup for my camper if we are boondocking. Also wired up a receptacle on my house with an interlock switch on the breaker panel to power up my house when we experience power outages. This unit does everything that you would expect it too. Very easy to operate, my wife is very comfortable in starting it and running it.

DECENT PURCHASE

I have just bought it and only run it a few hours with small loads. I am dissapointed that if you want to use the remote feature , you must turn on a lighted switch and when you turn it off with the remote, the light on the red light on the switch stays on, in my case all night and all day next day, I had to recharge the battery. It kind of defeats the purpose of a remote if you physically have to leave your RV to turn off the switch.
