Inverter generator

Just arrived today. Filled w/oil and gas and tested. Battery, remote (out to 90 feet) and pull starter worked perfectly. Powered up an air compressor and the iGen4500 easily handled the initial surge and then idled down as needed to maintain power level, i.e., it worked exactly as advertised. And, it runs quiet! Adding up all the features, this generator is a real value. I am 100% satisfied.

A great Generator

I needed a generator that was an inverter, quiet, and had the power to run my AC and converter unit in my Travel Trailer. This did it. I first bought a Riobi from Home Depot it was junk and I returned it. The electric start is cool too. No need for the remote. In addition to the digital readout for power and fuel, I would like a fuel gauge. The book does not give info for the small powerpack includer to charge the battery. I would like a manual choke but it does work good so far. I like it. Buy one.

Nice features, but choke problem is a bummer!

I purchased for the high power rating and the remote start. Unfortunately reviews I saw talked about a choke problem. Turns out I have the issue as well. The "auto" choke function for the electric start does not work. So you have to open up the engine panel and manually choke in order to start. This defeats the purpose of a remote start. I like the quietness and hope the high power rating will run my RV A/C unit well.

Hard to start for the first time

After numerous attempts to start this generator for the first time, I struggled with it until I went online a couple of times and looked at pictures of what could be causing the problem. Picture was hard to see. Finally got it started after about 2 hours! Now it starts like a champ!

Just what I was looking for

I just bought this 2 weeks ago but so far I've got no complaints and it's exceeded my expectations. It's quieter than I expected with lots of power. Westinghouse did a great job packaging. There was alot of signs of abuse by Ups but none inside to the unit, great job packaging!

iGen4500 for Power Outages

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.

Inverter generator

My wife and I live in mariposa California the last storm dropped a big oak tree across our driveway. Pulling down the powerline. PG&E could not get here for two days, so we pluged in our generator, which promptly quit on us! I immediately got online and went through numerous reviews and decided on a Westinghouse inverter generator. My wife and I are extremely happy we did because this thing works amazing. Started on the first pole and runs nice and quiet, unlike our old conventional generator it also supplies, the perfect amount of power that we need. We’ve used it three times so far and are extremely happy with it!

Convenience in design

I bought this right after a power outage and have been impressed by the extra features. I wanted something that had an electric/remote start so my wife could start the generator if I wasn't around and this generator does that. The LED display is also a nice feature because I'm able to look and see exactly how much power I am using and if I can plug more stuff in. It helps me get an exact number for power needs of a device as opposed to a general estimate. So, far it has run well and fits the needs I have.

Everything I had hoped it would be

Would not start right out of the box. Found the choke wire was routed too tight from the factory, so it came unplugged in shipping. I rerouted the wire and plugged it in… Runs absolutely perfect now. The remote start is awesome!!! I waited to give this review so I could use it and see how it did. turns out, it is much more than I expected it would be. I would recommend this product to anyone… In fact, I already have and he just ordered one last week

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.
