We used this Westinghouse Gen 4500 out the desert and hook up to the 28 foot trailer. This generator was super quiet and ran it for a good solid 6 to 8 hours. We love it
I would recommend this to a friend!

This generator came in yesterday and I in boxed it packaging was great everything that was supposed to be in the box was in the box. Took literally 5 min to hook up the battery and to put the oil in the machine. Fired up on the first push of the button. Great running machine and super quiet for such of a monster it is

Very good portable inverter generator
on September 13, 2020
Posted by: Don B.

I purchased this generator as a back-up for our house here in CA and for portable power with our 5th trailer when there is no shore power available. We are having quite a few potential power outages with the numerous wildfires here this year along with "rolling blackouts" when demand gets too high. Now. I dont have to worry about our 2 freezers and 2 refrigerators continuing to run and possibly having spoiling food. I just open our house main breaker and plug in a double male plug end 30A extension cord to the trailer recepticle on my workshop and I can power the house with 3700 running watts of power. That's plenty to power all of the critical devices whenever it's needed.
It is about 100 lbs. so really, it's portable enough to take camping with our 5th wheel and will power all of the essential stuff AND one of my air conditioners with no problem It is fairly quiet at about 62-65db under load and even queiter when it's in the "efficiency" mode.
It is a little pricey but for the quality and dependability that it provides it is well worth the money and being an "inverter" type generator, it is safe to use with your delicate electronics. This unit even has a couple of USB charging ports on the control panel to charge or power your portable devices. It also features 4500 peak watts, electric/remote starting, and everything that you'll need to put it work (except for gasoline of course) right out of the box. If you're looking for a multi-purpose inverter geneator this is the unit that you'll want.

Great features, Powers RV with no problems

I bought a few weeks ago. Added oil, gas, connected battery and it started right up.
Push button start and remote works great. Let run for two hours and changed oil. Location of oil drain bolt could use a little redesign maybe reroute that wire in front of the drain plug. Some oil stays on the plastic bottom . Louder than thought it would be but quiet. Runs single unit AC , refrigerator and microwave on RV with no issues. So if it lasts that's all I want.

Every feature I wanted in a generator
on September 13, 2020
Posted by: Bigwelder
from N.C.
Received my igen4500 several days ago, product was packaged well and everything needed to start was included except gas of course. Instructions on startup was clear and easy. Generator seems to be constructed well and I love the handle, wheels, and especially the remote. The generator started on the second try, understandable because the carb had to fill with fuel. I was surprised at how quite this generator is. I definitely hope to get good service from this machine because I am impressed so far.

Good bang for the buck!

Only had this a week but it is quiet and has all the features one could want. I haven't taken it on a camping trip yet so it hasn't been thoroughly put through its paces which is why it only gets 4 stars for now. Hope to update in a few months.
