Just purchased this iGen4500 generator to provide essential power for our unexpected power outages from hurricanes, freeze outages, and construction. Also plan to do a lot of back woods camping and remote location work and feel sure that this generator will do the job. Very glad to have this ready to go..

I'm leaving this review for a free generator cover. It's honest, but I am incentivized. I bought this generator for my travel trailer to power the AC after we were expecting higher than normal temperatures and I had to work. I have a large solar system with a lithium battery but running the AC all day requires more power. I bought this because it was available in Rapid City SD to be shipped to a local retailer. I ordered the iGen4000 but the store shipped the 5000. This generator was able to run my AC while staying below the 50% threshold for the first five hours. I changed the oil at that point and then I was able to run my entire trailer without issue on this. I would switch AC loads from my inverter to the generator and then also charge the battery. The generator is relatively quiet. I hate generators in campgrounds but it was necessary. It has ample capacity to run a 30 amp trailer. Adding and changing the oil is simple. It comes with a screw in funnel and I was lazy and just dumped it back out the same as it went in to change it. The remote start is fine but it requires you leave everything connected and you shouldn't start with a load or shut it down with loads. The battery was dead when I got it and needed to charge. The second time I ran it the electric start worked well. The generator is over 100 pounds though so it is hard to move and get in and out of the truck. I bought the 4000 which is 67 pounds so this is a major drawback. I need the high altitude kit and most manufacturers offer it for free but I haven't found a way to get it from Westinghouse for free. I submitted a request for this via support so we'll see what happens.

Has many good features and a full 30 amps of running power. Love the led readout of fuel, power used and run time left. It is very quiet. The product manual is dated and images are of an earlier model. Also, when filling the oil they say to use the whole bottle. That overfilled mine and made a mess. Guess some may have been left in at the factory. Other than that everything is good. Time will tell on endurance.

Great little machine, quiet, easy start, nice design. However, it doesn't have the power to engage my switch switch box on my RV. I'm getting power to all the plugs and ran a drill to test. I can hook my RV to my other generator and it switches on with no problem, and this generator is only rated at 3700 watts. So I am not sure what the problem is. I will be calling to address.

Gen is in perfect condition right out of the box. Manuel, quick start guide, funnel, charger, spark plug wrench and remote all packaged well in the box. Easy setup, easy to roll around and instructions are easy to understand. I have not started it yet, will follow up on review after break in period. I bought this to use with my RV which has 1500 btu AC.

The iGen4500 has met my every expectation. It is well built, quieter than expected and runs my 15000 BTU RV air conditioner, hot water heater, 20 cubic electric refrigerator, all lights and still power to spare. The remote ignition is a bonus. I am thoroughly satisfied.

Just unboxed it but it looks great. Fill it with oil provided in kit (and funnel), hooked up battery, put gas in it and it fired right up. It sounds about the same as my Yamaha iseb3000 so I'm happy with that. Remote works smooth too. I think its gonna be perfect. We will see this weekend.

All the features are nice. However I've had issues with the choke and the wiring not being connected. Maintenance is difficult as the access panels are far too small. Changing oil is difficult. Used for ice fishing and didn't have any issues with run time or having enough power to run the fish house.

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.

Very happy with it right out of the box. Product is solid, well built and ships with everything you need. I put Mobil 1 oil in instead of the oil it comes with and put in a NGK spark pug before starting it. It started immediately and ran like a charm. Hooked it to my travel trailer and ran it for about an hour with the AC and tv running. It purred like a kitten smooth and quiet.
