Bought this to run my toyhauler on extended trips and since opening the box has ran flawlessly. Great run time and plenty of power to run a 15kbtu AC and much more. Would definitely buy another if for some reason I ever needed to parallel them together for more power. Best bang for your buck generator in this category for sure!

The iGen4500 was our choice after testing several inverter generators in the 3300-plus watt category. This was our fourth and final selection, as it serves the purpose of powering our travel trailer when boondocked and for quiet home backup during outages. The winning feature for the iGen4500 was the manual Efficiency Mode switch, which can be set to off when starting the RV's 13.5K BTU AC. It is sometimes desiirable (or necessary) to disable auto-idle when starting up high load demand appliances. This is not possible on many inverter gennys.

I purchased the igen 4500 inverter a year ago for my travel trailer. We have camped primitive with it over 20 times without any trouble. The larger capacity fuel tank allows it to run through the night without having to refuel, and has enough power to run the whole camper including the microwave.

Very happy with this generator! Bought it to replace a larger, much louder generator and I love it! It is extremely quiet even when running our AC unit in the RV. Also love the electric start/stop and the digital readout, neither of which the older unit had. The gas cap is also well designed and it's easier to fill. Pull-out handle also works well. Great generator!

Bought this for my boat and I continually get comments about how quiet it is, which is very important when you are out in nature. Had a little trouble at first with one of the internal gears sticking but it hasn't been a problem since. Also, it only shuts off when I turn off the fuel which takes a few minutes but is not an issue. I like how solid it is and doesn't take up a lot of space.

Have used several time love the electric start plus remote!! Great to wake up on a cold morning and fire up the generator without having to leave the comfort of your bed. Works great super quite but plenty of power. Last a long time and is very efficient. Couldn’t recommend more highly.

I recently purchased this generator and it would not run. I had to remove the carburetor and clean it out. There was corrosion in the bowl and the jet was clogged. Maybe my model had been sitting for some time causing the corrosion. It runs now, but still doesn't seem to be smooth and runs a little rough. After getting it running it does seems to be a little louder compared to similar generators. Now its not job site loud and it will suffice, but I was expecting just a little bit quieter.

Just fired the new IGen4500 up today. I don’t have a lot of experience with generators. It was easy to set up. The directions did say to use all the oil it comes with. That made it overflow I little. Started up on the first push of the button, and never stopped purring. The remote worked first push also. We were really surprised at how quiet it ran. Conversation right next to it was easy.

I just picked up my generator today. We hooked up the battery and put the oil and gas in, and it cranked on the very first try. Also cranked easily with the remote. We stood within a foot of it, without a load, and had a conversation in a normal voice. I put a small load on it, and it barely increased the volume. Follow the instruction of not overfilling the oil. We thought we had a leak, but putting the whole bottle of oil (included) actually filled it enough to leak out on the ground a little. After the initial droplets, it stopped completely. I am looking forward to better weather so we can go camping and actually use it, but at this time, it's truly money well spent!

Although I had difficulty with the user manual (there are too many important things printed in sections of the book that are misplaced) and I had difficulty starting the generator at first, I have come to find its a sweet little piece of machinery that is perfect for my needs. Only used it once in 3 years but it powered alot during 3 days without power. TV, refrigerator, a couple of lamps, charged all our phones and more.
