4500 generator

from Update new york
Didn’t think I’d receive this generator with the known issue of a bad choke system. I figured after reading the reviews of a year ago this would have been remedied. Not so. Had to remove the air filter and stuck my finger in the choke hole to get it to start. After that it fired up on repeated occasions that day. Went out the next morning and got the same result of no starting.
Will put a request into Westinghouse like many others and hope to get a fix it response.
This has all the features of a good generator and I’m not disappointed about getting it, bugs in everything these days.

My husband did ALOT of research on generators before deciding on this one. We were lucky enough to get one before they sold out, they were hard to find anywhere in the middle of June! This generator is great, and super quiet. The best part is the remote control. I can start it and turn it off from inside our camper trailer!

Westinghouse igen 4500

I just started using the product and only have a couple of hours on it and it seems to work quite well to recharge the batteries on my 2018 Rockwood minilite trailer. Has to perform an easy fix of an electrical connector which disconnected due to shipping but otherwise very nice. I like the electric and remote start features.

Choke

Only used for a short time but seems to work well. 1 big problem was automatic choke was disconnected during shipping and would not start. Seems to be an easy fix and a constant problem with this unit. I searched online found many others with the same issue. I resolved the issue fairly quickly but not after being very frustrated it wouldn't start. Manufacturer should have this problem resolved.

GREAT VALUE

Bought this for camping hoping to find a generator that wont keep the whole block awake and not pay Honda money. It is even quieter than I expected. The pull handle and wheels make it very handy to move. I would like larger wheels for loose gravel but that is nothing compared to what you get for your money is this package. Would buy again without hesitation.

Great features and quiet

I purchased a little over a month ago. It started easy the first couple of times it ran about an hour each time in between oil changes for break in. I went to actually use it on a camping trip and it would not start. So I opened the cover and like many others I found the electronic choke wire off. I Locked it into place and put covers back on and it has ran great every time since . And it is quiet.
