Good generator with problem

from Delmar NY
At first start up there was a massive gasoline spill. All over the place. Happy there was no fire. Turns out that the generator is started at the factory and then gasoline drained via the drain in the carburetor float bowl. The employee never tightened the drain nut. This could have caused a fire. The Westinghouse assistant on the phone was unimpressed. Told me he wasn't going to pass along my information to anyone in the company. I've only run the generator for an hour to test it out and it appears to work. But I may not buy any more Westinghouse products.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Would not crank out of the box. Had to take panels off to get to the electric start module to reconnect the electric choke wire. Once connected the engine started right away. Has been running fine ever since. Pulls my camper air conditioner and all the lights at 25% load. Plenty of generator for my needs.

Started right up

Just bought followed instructions and it started right up by the electronic push button. Quiet so far so good. The instruction book doesn't exactly match my iGen4500, the book must be older version. Bought this for our travel trailer to boondock.

I bought this generator for a backup to run my electronics and it works perfectly, when I tried to crank it for the first time it wouldn’t start but I pulled the cover off and drained the old stale gas it had and it cranked right up and works great since then!

Very quiet when running...Easy to follow instructions...Started right up both manually and with remote...While I purchased it for power outages, I use it frequently in the yard trimming bushes...Seems to be an excellent product.
