Mixed Review - Great Performer Aggravating Issues
on December 25, 2024

The generator performs very well. The location where the oil has to be checked and filled is very hard to access. You sometimes have to lay on the ground to get the plug back in. The battery cover and the oil access cover fall off too easily. Even when you're moving the generator you find them lying on the ground

Bought this after borrowing my brother's (3 year old 5000) for a week long trip, both have worked perfectly, very quiet, remote start is great, and plenty of power for the toy hauler.

I just purchased it for ice fishing and as a back up generator for home and have not used it yet. Looking forward to it. I love the fact that it has a remote start and a battery that came with it!

Great first use after quirky set-up

Just a few days after receiving the iGen5000c, our power went out. Jumping ahead, the unit started right up, worked flawlessly, and was blessedly quiet (our old generator sounded like a truck using compression brakes). However, the preparation was not free of annoyances. Dutifully adhering to the Quick Start Guide > Before Starting instructions, I attempted to "Remove the engine service cover to access the oil dipstick." After spending quite a while trying to get the cover off (and failing), I discovered the small oil dipstick access panel on the other side of the generator. How did Westinghouse make such an obvious mistake in the documentation? Anyway, I used the provided funnel to fill the oil through the dipstick hole. I observed the "Do not overfill" caution, which I now interpret to mean "keep pouring in the oil until you start to wonder if it's too much. Then unscrew the funnel. If oil doesn't gush out of the dipstick hole, reinsert the funnel and pour some more in. Otherwise, stop filling and wipe up the mess." The Quick Start Guide omitted any mention of attaching the battery cable; that useful advice was found on a little yellow tag. I struggled to attach the battery cable, because the clip was way too tight. I doubt I'll be able to detach the wires without pliers (or wire clippers). When we lost our power in a windstorm, I filled the gas and started the generator. It fired right up, and worked perfectly. Hopefully it will continue to do so...

This looks like a good machine, but I haven't started it yet. Seems silly to request a review while registering the product.
