After wrestling with a decision between whole-home, large portable generator, or an invertor, I settled on the iGen 4500 because it fit the balance between power, portability, and quiet sound. This is a perfect blend to keep the essentials on at the house when a hurricane or winter storm hits, but quiet enough for tailgating/camping. Very pleased with the purchase so far.

After extensive research on an affordable emergency backup generator for our home, we decided on an inverter generator instead. Newer energy efficient furnaces (the HVAC board) require clean power (THD <3%). Also the clean power this inverter produces would be plenty for our essentials (i.e. two furnaces, two fridges, sump pump and few lights), on top of this it is super quiet. So far so good and we couldn't be happier with our recent purchase!

I bought this 2 months ago, it works perfectly except that the remote stopped working after a rainy day, and I did not cover the generator. After about two weeks, I tried the remote again, and it started working again！ I like the remote , it really helped when we boon-docking our 5th wheel. I put the generator on the bed of my truck. It works great in terms of convenience (remote start), reducing weight of 5th wheel, noice level.

The generator was deliveredtimely and in great condition. Everything appears to be in working order, although I haven’t owned it very long. Time will tell. I purchased this generator over others, because I add value to the Westinghouse brand. So far, they haven’t disappointed me.

I bought this about a month ago used it to power my camper it handled everything. I turned on the AC and the water heater at the same time It didnt move above 30% The only knock is the digital fuel guage doesnt work but it does run about 12 to 15 hours on a tank with the AC going.

This is light enough for one person to pick up, but has a nice handle. The features are nice including the remote start. It runs quietly and smoothly. We haven’t used it long term yet, but are expecting to like this generator. Only gave it a 4 out of 5 because we can’t say from personal experience how this will hold up, but we have read plenty of great reviews and expect the iGen4500 to meet or exceed our expectations.

We had a week long power outage and our friend let us borrow her Westinghouse generator (the size smaller) and it was a lifesaver. We purchased the iGen4500 and it is easy to move and store in the garage, able to run the heater and light for hours and we're really happy to have this going forward.

For camping I have upgraded from the Predator 2000 series to a Champion 3750 with remote, to the Westinghouse 4500 with remote. We love it, can't believe how quiet it is, easy to handle, and fits in the basket on the back of the camper for easy transport. The best part is, we don't even have to move it to use it!

This generator has great features and easy to operate, we bought the generator in January and used it in February when the Power went out the the house. We hooked it up to the RV it ran very quiet and very economical. I’m thinking about buying another Westinghouse generator for my shop.

The generator worked great for less than an hour, then it would shut down. This occurred several times, and we called customer service. As is typical nowadays, it took several days to get a response. On the plus side, when we finally were directed to a certified repair shop, the service was quick, the problem was diagnosed as a manufacturing defect, and a replacement generator was sent immediately. We have yet to use the replacement, but are hopeful it works well.
