I have sold many brands of generators over the years including the Onan 4500 which is basically the same as this Westinghouse 4500. The Onan was a great trouble free generator so I could not pass this up for the cost of the Westinghouse versus the Onan. Put the oil and fuel into the generator and if fired right up with the remote, couldn't be happier with the purchase.

We just had a day long power outage due to weather. We live in a remote location, so these are not unexpected. With the inverter, we have power to support refrigerator, microwave, internet, tv/satellite receiver and plenty of household lighting. With a wood stove for heat, a couple of fans move the air around the cabin nicely. It runs more quietly than I had expected after experience with a much smaller inverter that seems louder than the iGen4500. Runtime is excellent, so I can sleep through the night without refueling.

Purchased about 2 mos ago for camping, it was the quietest generator in camp ground & has all the features I need . The only problem I had was to remove right cover to connect carburetor automatic choke wire as mentioned in most reviews( definitely a production problem ). It starts up and runs great so far. This generator will work fine to run my house for what I need.

We purchased this to use with our camper. We are running a 13.5k btu A/C, 11 CF 12v fridge, and a small microwave. With all of these items active (no lights or fans), the generator handled them to 75% capacity. I was impressed. I only wish it was just a little bit quieter. My buddy has a champion and his is 1000 watts larger and it is a little quieter than ours. Overall, very happy with the purchase!

Recent power outages and a neighbor's recommendation spurred me to acquire this quiet and user-friendly generator for the next emergency. Setup and operating instructions are clear. The 3 starting options are helpful, and the remote start worked flawlessly.

I bought this generator for a camping trip without power at the beach and it worked great. Nice and quiet with remote start and stop. Plan on taking with me on my summer camping trips and don't have to worry about not having power or being to loud for people camping nearby.

I received the generator and was up and running in no time. Just add the included oil and some gas. Connect the battery leads and push the start button!!! It started immediately. Very impressed with how quiet the unit is! The handle and wheels are very handy when moving the generator around. Looking forward to putting it to use!

The i Gen 4500 is quiet and easy to start. It has many features that its competitors don't , such as built in dolly wheels and handle, gas gauge, remote start key, and is a very good lookin unit with a very organized front display. Also the battery and oil compartments are easy to access. So far love this generator.

Bought this for my boat and I continually get comments about how quiet it is, which is very important when you are out in nature. Had a little trouble at first with one of the internal gears sticking but it hasn't been a problem since. Also, it only shuts off when I turn off the fuel which takes a few minutes but is not an issue. I like how solid it is and doesn't take up a lot of space.

I bought this for the sole reason of not wanting to have multiple generators to power our camper. I have to say the IGen4500 runs everything with out a problem. It's easy to use and large enough to keep things running in the house if my main generator fails. The best part is the price compared to other that are half the power!
