Good features: nice generator and fairly quiet. Bad: The generator came with faulty carburetor and the repair took over 3 months. The amount of oil in the bottle that came with the generator is larger than the generator holds, so not knowing that, I've spilled it over. The manual shows wrong picture of the front, so starting it was a challenge.

I have 8 hours running time on it so far and I love it! The igen4500 is relatively quiet for it's size. I love the fact that it has 3 different ways to start it and especially love the remote start. I look forward to our next camping trip to use it. As like everything else this unit does have some bad reviews but give Westinghouse a chance to make your problems right. The good reviews far out weigh the bad.

Bought this particular generator after seeing how easy it was to start and how quiet it was! A friend has the same unit and has been very pleased. I had an issue with the automatic choke out of the box, but after following the instructions on the website I was able to quickly fix it. Just wish they would put the instructions in the box, so you wouldn't have to search out the solution. Would recommend 100%!

I bought this igen 5000 to replace my igen 4500 which had 580 run hours on it. This is the 3rd Westinghouse I've purchased and can attest to their quality and performance, bar none. I'm excited to begin use of the 5000 while camping this summer. GREAT PRODUCT; quiet, powerful and flawless.

I got this for off grid camping about 2 weeks ago, this thing is so quiet! It runs like a dream, library quiet and cemetery smooth, can barely tell I’m running a generator. Westinghouse you have out done yourself. Keep up the great work, AMERICAN MADE. I really like the remote start feature on this unit. Thank you Jlowe

Great design and control board. Started up the first time with no issues. Main concern is no manual choke. Yet instructions state it may be necessary to manually start and choke??? Had some scratches on the plastic from factory and rv plug g seems backwards. Appears well built. Still, very concerened about high altitude operation with no manual choke or a carb kit available at present.

I ordered this on a Thursday as a late xmas gift from my wife and it arrived on Monday. it came well packaged with oil, funnel, battery charger, and spark plug tools. I filled it with oil and a little gas, hooked up the battery and it fired up right away. So far i am very pleased with this unit. i will update after i get to use it camping this summer.

My iGen2500 arrived on time and it took less than 10 min to prepare for start. The engine started just fine on the very first pull - impressive. Easily powers a bathroom heater, will have to check other items later. Looks like a great deal for the money so far.

Very easy set up (I'm a widow and on my own and was concerned about being able to handle it by myself). It's pretty heavy (about 100 lbs.), but I was able to get it out of the box with only a few grunts. The directions were clearly explained for the initial set-up and it even came with the oil needed. I haven't run it yet, but am confident that it'll be exactly what I need.

Purchased after the winter storm of 2021 in Texas where we were without power for several days. We have tested it out & its easy to use & powering up electronics worked. Fortunately, I haven't had to use it in a power outage yet, but I have a sense of security with it.
