Easily one of the best generators on the market. Super quiet, powerful, and efficient. And you can buy 2 of these for the price of a lesser optioned eu3000i. The remote start and auto choke make starting it up in the morning as easy as pushing a button from the warmth of your bed.

Love how quite the gen set is and how easy to setup, added fuel and oil when I received the unit and it fired right up, would have given 5 stars but only gave 4 because a card come with the generator that said they would give a free generator cover if I left a review but the web address, they give you to go to does not work. So no free cover

Originally bought the Generac iq3500 the unit was heavier with no wheels. Not very portable, 2 people needed just to move position. Sent it back and bought this. Nice portable generator with more power, wheels and extending handle. Starts first time using electric starter. Test run over the weekend worked great!

My review of the iGEN4500 is based on owning a Westinghouse WH2400i prior to this purchase. The iGEN4500 is roughly twice the size physically and in power. The iGEN4500 has more bells and whistles; electric and remote start, larger fuel tank, stronger engine, and carrying handle. Unfortunately, the iGEN4500 did not improve on the oil filler location. It is still troublesome to fill and not get oil inside the compartment. Access the internal on the iGEN4500 is better than the WH2400i. All is necessary is to unscrew some screws and you are in. I'm torn on gas consumption, though. I could get 14 hours on 1.4 gallons of gas with the WH2400i, but I get 22 hours on 3.4 gallons of gas with the iGEN4500. I really wanted the electric start so I was willing to accept the higher gas usage of the iGEN4500, or at least I think I do. Now, the most recognizable difference has been in sound (loudness). I believe both the iGEN4500 and WH2400i have the same decibel rating but to my ears the iGEN4500 is noticeably quieter. I really despise companies marketing generators as quiet and/or super quiet. It has to be as stupidest as calling power banks solar generators. Generators are not quiet, but I will say the iGEN4500 , compared to the WH2400i completely took me by surprise. In my book, there are two wins in the iGEN4500 column, electric start and less generator noise. Just like the WH2400i, I do not plan to put many hours on the unit. It will only see occasional use. But it is nice to know I can move the unit easily outdoor, run an extension cord to wherever my load is, go back indoors, and use the remote start key fob. It will be equally nice to barely hear the generator running from indoors. I hope this guy will give me troublefree operation just as the WH2400i during it reign.

I bought this generator to be prepared for hurricane season and it seems to be the right choice . It was not as expensive as other top of the line generators but delivers as many features and power if not more. It is quiet and smooth. I ran an industrial fan, an air compressor, an electric blower, two small battery chargers, and another medium sized fan to test its capacity and still didn't exceed its ability to deliver. I would give it five stars but it arrived without the plastic oil cover piece and the battery was not charged. So I used the hand recoil and it started on the 2nd pull.

The generator arrived today in a well packaged box, good packing material and all componets in good working order. Setup was very easy and generator started on the second pull. Battery charged overnight with supplied charger and it starts easily with push button or remote phob. Gen runs very quiet and I like the information panel. We will see how it does on its first real full use on a camping trip. All in all to this point I am happy witht he purchase.

Just got this generator yesterday and put it together today. I fired it to break it in so we can use it next week to go camping at a rodeo. There is no electric hookups so this unit will power my camper very adequately . Looking forward to using it !

Purchased this generator to be used with my 19.3 No Boundaries RV. It runs the AC with no problems!!!! With my AC in full power, it is only pulling around 1,700 watts, which is almost 50% and that was in 103 degree Texas weather!! Worth every penny IMO!!!!

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.

Living in California, we experience power outages. The Westinghouse iGen4500 generator gives us comfort and security with long running time for essential devices and lights in the home. In addition, will be using the device to power equipment for disabled resident. Easy to use, options for starting, low noise, long run time.
