I’m 5 running hours in and really liking this generator. The digital sensor panel is great and the inverter really delivers on reduced overall weight and noise. My only complaint is the lack of clear instructions in the manual on using a very level surface to avoid tripping the low oil sensor. I was in an area close to level the first time i used it and almost gave up after a support call and hour of troubleshooting. They eventually sent an email suggesting a level surface.

I bought the iGen4500 for emergency power backup, and a generator that produces LHD (Low Harmonic Distortion) was one of the important items on the list I couldn't do without. It's really nice how quiet the generator is, the remote start is really convenient, and with LHD it can safely power my more delicate electronics. Having the generator for power backup makes hurricane season a little less stressful.

Just got it yesterday 9-8-2020. Added the oil , hooked up battery and it didn’t even take 5 seconds to start and it is so smooth, I have a smaller general iq 2000 which is very quiet I don’t have a decibel meter but I can’t tell the noise difference and the Westinghouse is more than twice the power, awesome.

I bought this generator needing to run 2 AC units on our RV while dry camping. We can run pretty much everything at once. Very quiet. Can run up to 18 hours on a tank of fuel. It’s heavy but I can lift it myself. The suitcase style handle makes moving it easy. Love this Generator.

Exactly what you'd expect, open the box put your fluids in and go on your way. Even though the manual doesn't state anything of a break in period, running through that now. Electric start is really nice to have for something like this, can keep it in the back of the truck and turn it on and off from the camper.

What matters most is performance and features, and I am very pleased with the generator. It's the small details that prevent a full five-star review. There were a few plastic shavings on the casing and panels that could have been cleaned up. Some of the compartment screws are a bit rough and seem like they will strip easily. A few scuffs here and there, but it is plastic. I just wished I was the one that caused the scuffs than it arriving that way. Based on several reviews, I checked the sparkplug for proper seating and gap, and it was fine. Initial startup couldn't be simpler. Once it was broken in a bit, I hooked it up to the RV and ran all lights, microwave and A/C with no difficulty. This is a hefty generator and will keep you fit. Squat to pick it up or you'll end up in the ER.

This is a great generator for the money. However it was quite a bit louder than I had expected. According to the specs it shows around 51 dB. I borrowed a friends generator from a different company the specs showed 60 something decimals. When I ran them side-by-side this generator is quite a bit louder. Other than that the generator works flawlessly. The remote start works great. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Ordered this after a wind storm took out our power. Shortly after getting it we had an ice storm that left us without power 4 days/3nights. Being able to start the generator from inside was great. I ordered two more for family members one of which is still without power on day 8.

But was leaking fuel at started up... customer service responded quickly and now waiting on parts Hope this does resolve the problem... very quiet and definitely enough power to run my travel trailer.. providing the leak get resolve it sounds like a solid running engine... but time will tell

I recently purchased the iGen4500 and so far am very pleased with it. It is loaded with features, easy to start, quiet and compact. My only suggestion for improvement so far would be to make the oil fill a bit easier to access. The unit did come with a screw-in funnel tube that makes the job of adding oil easier.
