I am four hours into my break in, and so far so good. Has started right up every time. I have had no problem with the choke like I have read in past reviews. Runs great with no problems like it supposed to.
Just received my iGEN4500. Everything arrived in good shape. Followed all set up instructions and it started right away. It is quiet which is a main reason I chose this brand. Ready for the next power outage. Will update my review as time passes.
After wrestling with a decision between whole-home, large portable generator, or an invertor, I settled on the iGen 4500 because it fit the balance between power, portability, and quiet sound. This is a perfect blend to keep the essentials on at the house when a hurricane or winter storm hits, but quiet enough for tailgating/camping. Very pleased with the purchase so far.
