Very quiet

I tried this generator outside while running a professional steamer and it is the quietest generator I've ever heard. The eco mode is great too so it saves energy when not in full use.
Just received the unit. Well built and performs extremely well. Would have given 5+ stars except - the battery terminals were already connected to the battery and the negative bolt and connection were very corroded, Quick disconnect, clean and treat with battery connection spray fixed that. Starts easily with electric start or pull rope, idles right down and runs very quiet for so much power. I'd get it again !!
I've only put 6 hours on my generator but it has worked flawlessly. It's a perfect fit for the generator tray on the front of my toy hauler. Packed with features and simple to operate. I will mention that, while it's very quiet in eco-mode with no load, the noise level increases considerably with a heavy load as the engine revs to meet demand.
We bought this generator for our Houseboat and look forward to how quiet The IGen4500 is. We love the remote start as well. Super easy to use and start up. Runs great!!! Easy to follow instructions as well. I read a lot of reviews and narrowed it down to this one or the Honda and we are glad we chose the IGen4500!!!
