Functionally great

This unit powers my travel trailer and all the amenities with no problems. It’s quiet enough to not be a nuisance while we are outside and great enough to power all our appliances while we are inside.
I would recommend this to a friend!

1st time is a charm

I did a lot of shopping around to find an affordable generator in my price range with all of the features I needed. The iGen4500 met all of my requirements. Did some review searching and found there was a problem with the auto choke. Watched a very detailed YouTube video showing how to connect the missed wire. Decided that I could fix it if it was a problem.
Pulled the generator out of the box and followed all of the prep steps, fueled it up and used the included remote to start it. It cranked right up on the first push and choke worked just fine.
Attached it to my camper and it handled the load just perfectly.
I am very pleased with my purchase.

Nice generator
on March 18, 2022

Good features: nice generator and fairly quiet.
Bad: The generator came with faulty carburetor and the repair took over 3 months.
The amount of oil in the bottle that came with the generator is larger than the generator holds, so not knowing that, I've spilled it over.
The manual shows wrong picture of the front, so starting it was a challenge.

Compared several similar power models

I bought this model about 3 weeks ago after comparing with several models of the same power levels. It seemed a good value for the features. I like the remote start feature and that it has a fuel shutoff. There is a battery charging adapter that I wish was allowed to be plugging in continuously and have an indicator light. So far it provides power as needed for my RV with easily covering the AC loads. It has been thought the breakin period as specified in the manual. Reasonably quiet, and no leaks so far. The battery indicator light is not illuminating for some reason. The manual says it should be on when unit is running. But I will call service about that.
