I bought this a few days ago and really like it's small size and the fact it has wheels and a handle to move it around. It is really quiet when running and has all the controls on the front panel. I like that it has an hour meter built in which will help with routine maintenance. The electric start is really nice and easy to use; just turn the switch on and press the start button for 1 second and it does the rest.

Only just got it a few days ago so haven't really used it yet but looking forward to. Things I like: Price Electric start Remote electric start/stop Wheels Pull out handle to move it around Information display Seems well built Things I'm not crazy about: Where/how you fill/change oil. It's very low and hard to get to and the screw in dip stick to check oil level is flimsy and can cross thread easily.

We took it out of the box and added oil and gas and it started on 2nd pull. We ran for a little over an hour and hooked it to our camper. It ran the air conditioning unit and all the lights and never even bogged down. Awesome purchase! Highly recommend

Just barely out of the box, started up great with the pre-charged remote battery. Selected this unit for the clean power feature to run PCs, TVs, freezers, etc at home during power outages so as to bot damage any electrical equipment. Only feature it's missing is a multi-fuel/propane option (therefore only 4 stars), I don't believe they offered one with that at this time. Will be back later to update rating after more use.

The generator worked great for less than an hour, then it would shut down. This occurred several times, and we called customer service. As is typical nowadays, it took several days to get a response. On the plus side, when we finally were directed to a certified repair shop, the service was quick, the problem was diagnosed as a manufacturing defect, and a replacement generator was sent immediately. We have yet to use the replacement, but are hopeful it works well.

Took less than an hour to get the generator up and running, neighbor giggled when I had him press the "on" button on the included fob and the generator started producing power. Great product that's the half the price of brand "H". And the iGen4500 makes MORE power.

Had read all the reviews and noticed the issues with initial start-up. I was a little disappointed that the issue has not been resolved. I called support and they sent me the bulletin to deal with the problem. Problem solved after losing a little skin off my hands. Looking forward to using this unit.

I received my iGen4500 today and after reading the directions, I added the provided oil and then fresh fuel. With one push of the start button, I was off to the races. The iGen4500 was noticeably quiet even before the Eco mode was activated. I ran it for about 30 minutes before shutting the unit off. I plan to give it a few more trial runs before I place any load on the generator.

The pull, button and remote started it right up. The manual says nothing about an hour meter, but it says on the front of the generator that it has one. We haven't ran it enough for it to register any time yet. It's flashing 0000s. We put an external one on it, so we'll see if it's accurate or not. We're still breaking it in, but it seems to have plenty of power and it's very quiet.

We purchased this just before Beryl hit the Houston area. We had borrowed an older open frame generator with the same output, which was our only experience with generators. This generator is so much more quiet! We couldn’t even tell that it was running from inside our house with the windows open. It was very easy to set up and get running with the push button start (and it also has a remote control start). It’s very helpful that it has a display that shows current usage so you know how much more you can add to the load. We plugged in lots of fans, charged basic electronics, a refrigerator, and lights, and we were only using half the load capacity. We also bought this particular generator knowing if we needed to increase our generator output, we can buy an identical one, connect them, and run them parallel to double output. Very happy so far with our purchase!
