just started up easily with automatic start. runs quieter than I expected but I did not put a draw on it so was only at idle speed. I like the wheels/handle. Size/weight--I am not a big guy but I am just able to lift this generator into truck.
Just took delivery yesterday and it took no time to set everything up. Bought it for a small RV and it handled every power requirement with ease; AC, lights, appliances, microwave, water heater and coffee maker. From my research this was the best on the market for quiet operation and power.
Just picked this up yesterday. Followed the simple setup instructions for fuel, oil, and battery. Turned on the fuel and battery switches and pressed the start/stop button. Turned over twice, started immediately, and idled smoothly. Today I plugged in my R-Pod trailer, and the generator smoothly picked up all loads including AC and microwave. Fuel gauge and run time remaining both show all zeros or it would have been 5 stars. I don't consider them essential, but will contact support.
I bought the igen4500 a week ago, removed from box read instructions that are easy to read and understand. Pluged the battery wires in, filled with oil, pulled on pull rope a few times to get oil to the pistions. Turned gas on and on switch, pushed start button, started right up, very quite. Will let the gen run a little before putting load on the gen. A lot of information gauges on front and enough plugs for what ever you might need.
