Compact & Controls Easily Accessible

We looked at a number of generators before deciding to purchase this model. It had a larger fuel storage and running time that we were looking for. Also the reviews we read indicated that this model was a quiter version which was very appealing as wen we go camping we didn't want to disturb the environment we were in. That it had both a manual and electric start was appealing. Having a digital data center was another plus such that we can monitor the unit's activity. Lastly, this unit is visually appealing

I purchased the iGen4500 on June 1st 2021 for the upcoming hurricane season. I have two neighbors that always provide electricity through extension cords but I had concerns about the "cleanness of the power coming through. I was attracted by the iGen 4500 long running time, quietness and impotantly, the clean power provided by the inverter

So far so good

I just received this generator. Switched from a competing brand. So far I like the features this generator has over my previous one. The slide out handle, remote start and digital display are definite upgrades. We will see how it runs during the cold MN winter. Will wait on my final opinion until then.

Runs great!

Runs great and quiet. I'm having to take the side panel to move the choke manually as I can't find the unplugged cable for it to start up automatically. Engine won't start if you can't choke it.

Worked out of the box

Just got this and all good out of the box. Connected battery, added oil and gas and it started. BTW the oil amount and type is on the outside near the oil plug (but not in the manual). I tested it with a hair dryer and there was some hunting of rpm as the dryer cycled. Will test more later.

Easy Set Up

I just received the iGen 4500 today and it was very easy to set up. Add oil, add gas, hook up battery and started with remote on first try. It's very quiet, I plugged in a belt sander and it didn't make a difference in sound. It says "auto rotating display" but it's not, you have to press a little button on display to go through the functions. I will be putting it under more load with the RV soon.
Pros; Easy start, Quiet, easy to understand display
Cons; Display does not auto rotate (not a big deal but it says it is).
