We have been researching portable generators for years for various reasons. When my wife found this one it looked like it has all the features we need. - Attractive compact package - Inverter - easy to transport and move - quiet - plenty of power for our purposes - Seems well built - electric (and remote) start - we're in our 80s

We ordered this generator to use at Talladega. It is awesome. We had the AC on and I used the microwave with no problems. Love the key fob! I was impressed to have the handle for easy moving.The front panel is all digital! It is worth the price you pay for it.

I bought this product about three months ago after doing extensive research and reading many reviews. With the threat of snow storms in our region, I finally decided to open box and fire up the generator for the first time. I was pleasantly amazed how easy it was to get it started. The instruction is simple and easy to follow. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the battery cables, negative and positive, are already attached to battery (not what I initially expected). All I had to do was attached the battery cable bundle into the cable attached to the generator via a quick-connect attachment. Oil fill up via plastic downspout provided is a breeze. I like that the downspout actually screws in for added stability and seal while pouring the oil to prevent oil spillage altogether. Fuel fill up is even easier. The start sequence is so simple. The generator started within two seconds of pushing the start button. I am impressed with the low engine noise. So far I am satisfied with my purchase. I know I have yet to put the generator to the test with multiple loads over a period of few hours but I'm quite optimistic that it will deliver as expected. I am also excited about the remote start/stop feature. I know my wife is excited about that feature also.

Haven't use it for camping yet.I only run it for few hours to test it. Was able to deliver the power I need,charged the batteries without problem.Run my AC,TV and other eletronics with no problem( drawing about 2200watts).Easy to start with the push button or with the remote control.It's difinitely heavy, needs two person when lifting,the good thing it has wheels and handle that can extend to pull the generator easily( i would say on even and pave surface, a little bit hard on grass or unpave area).The noise level I'd say moderate,you can hear each other in a normal converstion even standing 3 feet from the generator.So, overall, excellent quality, excellent build and design.Not as expensive compared to other brand with same power rating,or has more power compared to with similar price brand. I highly recommend this for those looking for a generator with up to 3kw needs.

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.

I bought this for my fifth wheel for travel when power is not available. Very handy that I don't need a 30amp adapter and I don't have to mess with the choke like my other small generators I had, and I don't have to worry about paralleling 2 gens. This one has an awesome handle that comes out of the bottom in the front and I can move it easily by myself even through the gravel. I do need my husband to help me lift it on and off the rack on the back of my trailer but once it's there it stays there for the trip as it's around 110lbs. The remote start is great for early mornings when I want coffee but don't want to have to go out and pull start a couple of generators. It has remote start or push button start, auto choke so you don't have to mess with that, and if all else fails you can pull start it. Noise level is nice - quieter than my 2 small gens that I had paralleled even under load. The digital displays are nice for knowing just where you are at. Very happy with the purchase so far.

The iGen5000c generator was purchased following a massive windstorm that left us without power for nearly three days. It arrived well packaged, and setup was easy. Instructions were clear and once the battery was connected, oil and fuel added, it ran smoothly from the start. I have yet to put much of a load on it but so far, I am quite pleased with the IGen5000c.

Noise level, as advertised. Good power. Heavy, but not that heavy. Happy so far! However...unpacking was a real scare! The box came slightly damaged, delivered by UPS, one strap missing, few small holes....however the original tape was intact. Upon opening I noticed a "old fuel, type smell". My mind began to race to the small number of reviews that mentioned "used", or "returned" products! I opened the fuel cap, and ugh! what a smell. I carefully removed the strainer, and looked in. Damp, but no real amount of anything. I thought of removing the float bowl, but told myself, maybe it was some kind of protective substance...Snatching the unit out of the box was surprisingly easy (heavy yes, lift carefully!) I am 66 years old, but the top handles really made this easier! I lifted the unit out of the box instead of cutting it out, because I wanted to make sure I could return the unit if necessary "in its original packaging". Now the real scare....the fuel shut off knob was missing! A quick look showed it had ended up in the bottom of the box. Fortunately I have handled a phillips head before, carefully removed the rubber cap at center of the knob, and installed correctly. Worried, I looked over the unit for signs of use, and found none...however the battery was not strapped inland riding at 45 degrees. Good thing it is "no leak". I went over everything I could with a stout phillips, checked the air filter, and then proceeded to add oil. There was a small amount of oil laying in the bottom cover, but it was clean. The telescoping handle works, but seems a beat flimsy. I made a mental note to use that feature sparingly if at all! After adding two liters of "non-ethanol canned fuel" the fuel gauge still registered "empty". The third on got the unit to register 1/4. After 3 pulls on the starter rope, it came to life! Really easy, and smooth pull start. I think anyone could handle this! Not my fathers Gravely L8 for sure! Or any of my push mowers! She started right up....but ran unevenly for almost 60 seconds. Finally it settled down. Finding the started FOB, attached to the pull start, with battery installed, was worriesome....but it lit up! The remote started worded wonderfully! I had my girlfriend use it, so now she can brag "she started it"! Now let's hope I don't have to use it.....being a follower of the philosopher "Murphy" ......

This unit is so quiet. It runs well.I am very glad I got this. Easy to pull start until the pull cord gets caught, then challenging. Need replacement kit. The battery start doesn't work often. It is a minor issue for me, but would be nice for the remote start to work.

I've only ran the generator about 8 hours, but so far it's been good. Not as quiet as I was hoping, but for 4500 watts quiet. The electronic features, output, fuel level, hours remaining on fuel, hour meter, etc. are very nice and conveniently displayed. Tools, funnel, battery charger and remote start are bonuses that add to this generator. Service points/ports are much more convenient than other quiet generators. The wheels and retractable handle, as well as the carrying handles are great. It also started up immediately, with no use of a choke. I hope my future experience with this generator will be as good as the first 8 hours.
