So far so good

Had to wait 3 weeks to receive this item, but so far so good! Well worth the wait, fired up right away and ran my 15k a/c on my camper no problem. One little issue with the plastic case being damaged during the shipping. Overall quiet as advertised!!

Doesn't get an easier than this

Out of the box it took less than 10 mins before we were up and running. Very manageable for one person and so quiet compared to my last generator - such an improvement! Do yourself a favor and add the oil slowly and in phases. My generator didn't quite take the full quart. I plan to use this for my camper and as a partial home back up generator. So far so good!

Quiet and Portable

Great features like having wheels to be moved easily. Extremely quiet operation, easy to setup and use and the remote control feature is convenient! Been researching these inverter generators for months and glad I purchased this brand and model. Additionally, you can connect two up at once for even more power if needed!

IGEN 4500

Bought the IGen 4500 just a few days ago. The generator was well packaged and came with all items needed to place it into service. Overall construction is solid and the generator is equipped with a built in handle making it ease to move. The generator is extremely quite compared to my previous model and is rated to run approximately 6 hours long on the same amount of fuel. The generator is equipped with easy to read gage that cycles through the, fuel level, run time, remaining runtime, and power output. Over all I am very please with the purchase.

Great inverter

I bought this for camping and have used it around the house for activities and it can easily run everything I planned to plug in. This unit is easy to start and runs very quite. Under advertised is the handle and wheels which make it really easy to roll it around.

Awesome invertor

Live in Florida and experience power weather related outages a few times a year. Lots of experience with many generators. Purchased this one for the new season. Couldn't be happier. Easy to operate runs relatively quite and plenty of power. Key phob start/stop is also a nice touch. Recommend for anyone needing a powerful affordable power option

Perfect for tailgating!

I bought this generator to replace a smaller 'big store generic' bought generator. Needless to say, I am very happy with the quality of this product and the features that are available. Spend the extra money on this generator or you will be replacing your other generator in 2 years.

Great wattage power

We had problems starting the generator even though we had read the instructions. It stated oil and gas wasn't in the generator. However oil was and we got too much oil in it and had to take some out. In the package there was a container of oil which was not full. In fact the whole box was oily and so was the generator. Had to wipe everything down. Finally after couple of days we finally got it started and took it camping. 1st night it ran great and enough wattage to run AC, all lights on and microwave going. 2nd night had a problem having generator turn on and had to deal with the choke and got it running. After getting home no problem turning the generator on.

Runs smooth and queit!

I bought this about a month ago and have used it several times. I had no problem getting it started up the first time, just a couple tries and it fired up. It has started no problem every time since then. Instructions for start up were long but easy to follow. I love the push button and key fob start.

Long run time on 1 tank

Bought for ice fishing love the remote start and how fast it starts. I ran 18 hrs on a single tank of gas way better then my cheap out one. Bought the bigger model to use for running my A/C on my fish house for summer camping can't wait to see what the run time will be doing that
