I purchaced this unit a month ago and I am so glad I did. Thankfully our weather has not knocked out our power yet but at least I have piece of mind that we are prepaired for when the time comes. Compared to my older open unit this unit is very quite and can handle our esentials when needed.

this generator will be use for camping on my trailer with AC/ microwave ECT. The Gen.arrived with a clean box and no signs of damage Gen. also no sign of damage, Looked very good.after filliing with fuel/oil and connecting the battery it started with no issues, runs great.I ran the AC and microwave at the same time it run the gen. up to 100% and the gen. never missed a beat. however I am concerned after shutting it down then restarting and getting a backfire popping sound. I am not sure if this is anything serious.other that that, It seems to be a great Machine.

We bougth this in June to use while camping . I was amazed at the amount of power this could put out and the quietness of this machine. I was very concerened about the noise level of a regular generator but this was perfect for us. Enough power for our camper with out the distraction of loud noise.

I bought this generator to be prepared for hurricane season and it seems to be the right choice . It was not as expensive as other top of the line generators but delivers as many features and power if not more. It is quiet and smooth. I ran an industrial fan, an air compressor, an electric blower, two small battery chargers, and another medium sized fan to test its capacity and still didn't exceed its ability to deliver. I would give it five stars but it arrived without the plastic oil cover piece and the battery was not charged. So I used the hand recoil and it started on the 2nd pull.

I purchased the iGen4500 for our fifth wheel trailer and expect to purchase a second to run in parralel for a home back up. So far, thru break in and initial run in and test, the generator has not disappointed. The manufacture, fit and finish, and overall quality is impressive. First real test in two weeks. jh

We bought this generator to supply power to our 33ft. camper. We just used it on a 4 day trip and couldn't be happier. We were able to run whatever we wanted and it used minimal gas. It is so quiet to use, you couldn't hear it beyond our campsite. I would definitely recommend it.

Having done lots of on-line searching and comparing, iGen4500 came out on top of my list for brand and model. It appears to be of sturdy build, works (almost) as advertised, and has some great extra features. Sadly, they have still not fixed the choke issue, nor the illuminated power-on switch. And just to nit-pick, they should have spared a couple more inches to the battery connect wire. Old, arthritic fingers can barely get into the limited space. And the hold-down for the battery strap clip isn't notched enough (molded plastic flaw), the clip doesn't stay firm. Again, not really complaining, just mentioning. On the cool side; The Amazon ad didn't even showcase the retractable pull bar! Completely out of the way until needed, pulls out like a suitcase on wheels. The oil service funnel screws into the oil fill port preventing spillage. There's enough space in the battery area to store the funnel, rag, spark plug wrench, etc, and an extra bottle of oil. Gotta love the control panel. Digital read-out gives more info than others, and all info is useful. (Voltage, Load %, Watts, Fuel level, Remaining run time, and Total hours. Now we'll see how well it holds up. Again, I'm very happy with it so far. I'm looking forward to Westinghouse's fix or at least workarounds for the choke and ignition light.

Received the generator, unboxed, connected battery, put in the oil and gas an wham the unit started on the first try. It will run my 30 amp motorhome with no problems. The only issue with this generator so far is the 30 amp RV plug is installed upside down. That was an easy fix though. It's light enough I can pick it up by myself. I would recommend this generator to anyone.

My brother first bought his igen4500 about 3 years ago and loved it. We had a bad storm coming and I finally had the money, need it for my camper anyway, so pulled the trigger. I got the unit ready for it arrived 2 days before the storm. Choke was attached! Lost power during the storm. Unit fired right up at -10*f. Can't wait to use with camper!

I purchased this generator to power a travel trailer and also for home backup, the portability, electric start, surge watts (4500) and low noise level are all key points for the decision to purchase this generator. The digital display and long run time are great additional features.
