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.

I’ve been researching generators for the last three months I bought two they did not work to my specifications I returned them and I finally bought the Westinghouse 4500. This generator is definitely a great generator it is enough power to run everything I need to and some.

I've used this now for quite awhile, and am finally writing a review. I'm super happy with the purchase after using it awhile. The extending carrying handle and wheels are a must have, I would never get a generator without one, and it's cool to carry it around like it's a piece of luggage. I LOVED having the remote when I was in my camper to turn it on/off. I like the quiet (ECO) mode option. It seems to get pretty good "gas mileage" too. I would highly recommend this for anyone with an RV or need for a generator for camping. One piece of advice, treat it like you would a lawnmower... when winter comes before you get freezing temps, or anytime you're not going to use it for 4 months... run it until it runs completely out of gas and it stalls. Always do this, and the generator will fire right back up when you fill it with gas even years later.

The iGen4500 is a very nice quiet generator. It is very easy to use with push button start as well as remote start. Setup and initial startup was very straight forward. Looking forward to lots of camping trips with this generator in tow! Compared with Honda and Predator Generators and went with the Westinghouse for value and reliability.

After long research of many brands and gas verse diesel, I purchased the iGen4500DF for an installation on my 41' live aboard sailboat. The unit has many safety features and routing of the exhaust in a very safe and secure matter was a breeze! The unit is amazing compared to my older water cooled diesel generator! I would highly recommend this unit to anyone wanting safe, quiet and smart generator. It would also be excellent for an RV application. I originally ordered the DF version, but was shipped the non-propane model, however I did end up keeping the gas only model. Although I don't have the flexibility of two fuels, I am very satisfied. Keep in mind this unit is not some traditional break out the generator for a storm every 5 years generator. This is one that's made to use for long runs and operate sensitive equipment such as computers. I run my A/C reverse cycle AC unit, refrigeration, digital battery charger and other digital systems and it works so great!

After a lot of research I decided to go with the iGen 4500. After receiving my generator , I did the break-in. Two oil changes with no load and one oil change after 25% load (that's with the A/C(13500w), TV, Radio, Refridge, and all lights running on my camper) turning on the microwave it would go to 75% load. Gotta say no issues, except for overfilling oil and having to clean up that mess. It has started with ease with all 3 methods. Since it's my 1st generator, I'm hoping for many many years.

A lot quieter than expected. Ran great out of the bow once fuel, oil and battery connection taken care of as outlined in startup guide. I don’t know if these generators are pre-tested at factory. The gas fill was wet with fuel and oil dip stick had oil on it. There was no sign of use on tires or any where else. Pleased so far.

Added oil like the quick start guide said, added about 2 gallons of gas and plugged the battery terminals . It started on the first pull on the pull cord. I ran it for about 5 minutes, shut it down then started with the push of a button, started right up. Shut it down and started it with the remote which by the way is awesome. This unit runs so quiet . I made the right choice buying Westinghouse instead of Honda. I am extremely impressed.

Recently purchased this item after comparing lots of different brands and styles works great for my camper exactly what i was looking for ! it looks great starts right up is quieter than I expected ! so far is better than i hoped for love it ! don't hesitate to buy this its a super price for all the features

Hello! We bought this generator for our new trailer Imagine XLS 22MLE. We needed it to run the air conditioner and a few other things. We just love it! Super quiet, remote control is AWESOME and wattage is great! If any one is looking to upgrade their generator, this would be the model. Thank you! Vickie
