I bought this in September 2018 to replace an old generator. I was looking for a good sized generator, but wanted something quiet. The iGen4500 is way quieter than I expected. You really can have a normal conversation standing right next to it. With my old generator, I felt embarrassed to use it after hours during power outages, but not with this generator,; I'm serious, its quiet! I love the remote starter, I can turn on and off from inside the house about 50' away. I am very happy with this generator, and I don't write many reviews...

Bought this generator almost a month for my RV and love it at first sight. Great price for a compact but powerful generator. Love the Start/Stop remote feature, especially when the wind pick up outside at 0200am. The noise is not that loud compared to other generator in the same category.

I needed to upgrade my Champion 2000 inverter I us in a smaller hunting trailer. After comparing specs and reviews of a similar Champion model to the iGen 4500, the choice was easy. The iGen 4500 holds more fuel and has longer running times. It also has a scrolling screen that provides run time, remaining fuel, amp draw and will also charge it's own battery. I have a much larger RV with AC and this will handle everything I have running and turned on at the same time. It will run all night and I don't have to get up and refill it in the middle of the night. Remote turns it on when you need it and off when you don't want to walk outside when it's cold, rainy or snowing. What more could you ask for.

Data panel malfunctioning. No fuel quantity or time remaining info. Just purchased for 4th of July outing. Started right up and ran 15 hours. Power output seems a bit low as I can't pull all equipment off generator that I can on 30 amp shore power service. Customer service seems responsive so far, so I will update this after I get warranty service, though it is frustrating to reload this new (heavy) gen back in the car and drive it 100 miles to a service center. Also quite irritating that the cover is no longer a bonus item though it is still sold on Westinghouse website. The literature in the box still says a cover is a bonus option for reviewing your purchase. Who wants a powerstrip? Not a great idea to disappoint a customer about to write a review....

I just unboxed and started the generator. Easy to set up. Instructions are clear AND there is an actual manual with words not just pictures. I bought the iGEN5000cv with just pull start. It started on the 3rd pull. Very quiet. Remember to fill the oil and follow the 5 hour break-in period.

I bought this for our RV and the generator works like a charm. It starts the air conditioner up without any hesitation. We won't have to worry about any hot summers now. The efficiency mode also works very well. The generator will sense when it needs a few more RPM's and then immediately drops back down to an idle speed.

Bought this generator because it was rated low noise but it is a lot louder than we expected. The digital display is so confusing because it doesn't correspond with the key. (Example - there is no V for voltage) All in all it seems to be a great purchase.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago and I'm so happy I did. I now have peace of mind knowing that I will be prepared the next a winter storm hits and we are left without electricity for a week. From the other reviews that I've seen, I should be well prepared.

We purchased the iGen 4500 to use for boondocking when we camp in our new travel trailer. We love the weight of this and the handy retractable handle for ease in moving it. The set up and starting it for the first time was extremely easy and user friendly. We looked at other generators and found the price of this coupled with the features to be just what we need. My husband especially likes the remote control starter and the quiet hum when it is running.

This generator has worked perfectly since day 1. After opening the shipping, I followed the directions, added the supplied oil, added the gas, and it started running without any problems. The generator is used to power my 5th wheel trailer. Between all my trips, the last one was to Tucson,AZ, 2,200 R.T. There has not been any problems with the unit. Since It no longer necessary to stop at a RV campground for power, the generator has almost paid for itself. Will highly recommend the unit
