Love the product, only issue was the automatic choke was not hooked up upon assembly, so had to take three sides off, which seems to be a normal issue that is not being resolved based on issues posted. However, once you watch a couple of videos a 10 minute fix, then it works excellent, so far.
Very quiet Inverter Generator, plenty of power with a 4500 peak watts and 3700 running watts with a 30 AMP NEMA TT-30R that easily runs the essentials in my Home for power outage without problems. Very convenient to have dual fuels and a remote start, so I can be able to start my Generator without having to go out under the rain.
We bought this generator to power our travel trailer. Added oil and gas....wouldn't start. Did some research online and found the "fix" for the automatic choke. Once that issue was taken care of, the iGen4500 does everything we wanted and expected it to do. It runs our A/C on the camper with not a great amount of noise.
I got this a few weeks ago and it was simple to set up and had it running and making electricity in 15 minutes or so. Runs quietly, just as I had hoped and has nice display to show how much fuel is left as well as how much power it is generating. Really like that it has an eco mode so that it only makes as much power as needed. Idles a lot (quiet) to do what I need. Very happy so far.
I purchased this unit to power my RV Air Conditioner. The setup was a breeze. Everything needed to start is included. After putting the oil (supplied) and adding a gallon of gasoline, this thing started on the first try. Also, I am amazed on how quiet it is, even more on the eco mode. I've owned other generators but feel this one is the best. I strongly recommend this generator. Thank you Westinghouse....
