Great looking Generator

I just received my new iGen4500. It looks like a well put together piece of machinery. They have included the oil, funnel,spark plug tool, and a understandable instruction book. I have not yet had the chance to use it. I never thought I would be looking forward to the next storm that takes out our electric power. I'm sure that this Westinghouse iGen4500 will more then meet my expectations. Thank you Westinghouse.

iGen2500 generator works great

I own a Westinghouse 7500E so when I needed a small inverter generator for my camper I naturally turned to Westinghouse iGen2500. its light, quiet and powerful. it keeps me warm, entertained with my TV and all my electronics charged. Westinghouse makes quality products.

Nice Inverter/Generator

I bought this inverter/generator to take camping. It is fairly quiet, has a large fuel tank allowing for long run times and will power the air conditioner on the camper. It's a good solid unit. I use it at high altitudes (9000 ft +) so I purchased separately and installed the high altitude jet before adding fuel or oil. Would be nice if jet kits were included with the unit like some competitors do. Anyone using over 2000 feet is recommended to replace if I remember correctly. Jet install could have a little simpler but the directions were clear.

Happy Camper

I got my generator today, unpacked it and charged the battery a couple of hours, put gas and oil in it, pushed the button and it started right up. Bought this to run my travel trailer, I’m going to love the key fob, no more going outside to turn off and on. Well done Westinghouse!!!

Not running well out of the box

Wish I could give it a better grade. Love everything about it feature wise, but it sputters when it is hot. Has stalled numerous times. People are relying on me to provide power at a tailgate, but the thing keeps stopping. Embarrassing, annoying, and disappointing. They have a real winner on their hands feature wise, but why not build something that works.

Meets - and Exceeds - Expectations

Having never used a generator before, I was nervous about the set up and maintenance and both are a breeze. The manual is clear and concise and covers everything in good detail. It's sturdy yet easy to move with the inbuilt handles and pull-out handle. Great product!

Quite & price is right!

We purchased this generator to use on our new 4 Season Toy Hauler!! Very impressed with low noise level and the power it kicks out! It is pretty lightweight, considering and easy to move around. We are just absolutely impressed with the product overall! We have been bragging about it since we purchased it!

Quiet and Great on Fuel

I just recently purchased my 2nd iGen4500. The first one was for my pull behind camper. It was very quiet, easy to start and ran all night running my AC on 3/4 of tank of gas. I sold my Camper and the buyer purchased the generator with it. So I just purchased a replacement for my new RV.

Quiet unit

I just received the unit today . Packing was little beat up but nothing hurt in side box. I put in oil as recommended connected battery as directed turned gas on turned unit on pushed start button. Yes it started right up BUT the auto Choke never went off was running real rough. I had to take engine access panel off and manualy turn choke off then it ran like it should . I know i read other reviews about this chock setup having problems so time will tell . I will try starting it tomorrow when its cooled down and see what happens.

Easy to set up and use, quiet, powerful

I bought this for my new camper, for when I go off grid. Something big enough to power the AC when it starts, and also big enough to serve as backup power to run a couple room heaters if the power goes out. Easy to setup, easy to use, so far. Quiet. I like the eco mode for when you don't need the full output. Also, I like that it is RV ready, and I like a no-frills machine (no dual fuel, no electric remove start, so many, many fewer things to break).
