Great so far

Started on first try. Runs very quiet. Bought this for home backup power for refrigerator, lights, tv, etc. Have not had the chance to test it fully yet but liking it so far. Remote start is nice as well. Having the pull handle and wheels is really convenient..

Very nice features and runs perfect!

We have used the generator in our boat. It will run water heater, fridge, coffee maker, 30 amp battery charger with no problem. It will not consistently start my onboard ac/heat as the unit has to many amp spike at start up. When it does get it started the generator handles the load no problem. Run time remaining, volts, fuel level, total hrs, fuel gauge, load level all very nice and works great! Just going to change oil at 17 hours (1 tank of fuel). Will report back after getting more run time. Right now I would replace it tomorrow if I needed a generator again. Very happy!

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!

incredible

truly an amazing product from start to finish. if you want reliability without any fear, this is your guy. i bought with limited understanding / knowledge on how to operate a generator and what kinds of things i might want out of the product but this has been a home run all the way though. from incredible reliability, ease of use and set up, sleek design, remote start, incredible run time, great display that shows the fuel level- i couldn’t be any more impressed. only downside is it’s a bit heavier than expected but nothing unmanageable for 2 people.

Junk and Poor Quality Control

I bought one of these new, and it has never started easily, and generally not at all. I did research troubeshooting videos, and the consensus is that Westinghouse for this model (iGen4500) had a starting/choking issue--but they have never fixed it. Once again (today) I needed a generator, and spend about a hour in the snow in 0 degree weather, trying to start the generator.

Looks Great and Quite!

First glance was a little iffy due to the box being destroyed. I'm sure through shipping. Followed the instructions when i got it home. started right up and it is very quite! I will do the break in process and use it over the weekend and will be back for a follow up review. initial thoughts - cosmetically looks great, very quite and i like the display in the front.

Great machine

This was an amazing machine I seriously recommend it to anyone above any other generator. Reason is because it is very very quiet holds a lot of gas has a energy efficient mode a remote that's wonderful when you're in your camper it just push of a button and it turns on and is very reliable

Nice and quiet

I purchase this a few weeks ago for RV. Only issue I had was starting it, it want to flood and gas was pouring out from underneath, I think the electric choke was stuck or it was not firing, took the side cover off and press the spark plug wire down and then it started right up.

So far so good

I brought this May 29, 2022 and it arrived at my door on June 3, 2022. I got it up and running in about 15-20 minutes after reading some of the manual to understand some of the operating board. Fired right up on the first pull. Will be using it tomorrow to run a water pump for a couple hours to water 60+ trees. Hopefully all goes well.

Very Convenient Power

I bought a iGen4500 for my camper. Very convenient remote control!! Just turn off 110 volt main breaker, push the start button, wait a few minutes & turn the main breaker back on. That simple. Same for turning off. Turn off breaker & let the inverter cool off for a few minutes, then push the off button on the remote. All from inside the camper. Plenty of power to run everything. May not be enough for a 2 AC unit camper but very capable for my needs.
