Superior Quality Invertor Generator

Needed a quiet and dependable generator to power an RV and other household appliances. This is above and beyond. Super quiet and starts with the push of a button on the first try. No issues and no stalls. Out performs the Honda that is twice the price. Easy to use and easier to move and transport.

I bought this a week ago and my is very happy since she doesn't have to pull start the previous Hondas when I'm not around. I also appreciate the electric/remote start feature.

Clean/Safe power for sensitive electronics....

Fantastic generator. All pre-assembled... only had to connect battery and add oil and fuel. Started right up and performed admirably. Many key features but on the top of my list is the unit's "Efficiency Mode Switch". This allows unit to self detect actual load allowing unit to run at a lower RPM... not only saves fuel but really makes it quiet. Speaking of decibels, I replaced a fairly new open frame generator and wow... what a different in dB output.. this iGen4500 is super quiet for a generator.. my neighbors have cancelled their "tar-and-feather" party for me now that I've gone stealth! Additionally, my previous open-frame (non-inverter) generator had a higher THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) threshold (<23) while this unit has a <3 THD threshold.... why is this important? Because higher THD units deliver "non-clean" power which is risky to sensitive electronics. My open-frame generator would not power my UPS.. as UPS sensed unstable power and would not accept power to charge/run unit. However, UPS was quite happy with the iGen4500 power signal. Also worth noting is the stellar documentation.. user manual is well written and easy to follow. 5-stars for this Westinghouse generator.Cl

I bought this for my new camper. A must for any adventure!! After 2 weeks of research on 11 different models, this was the one. Added the oil, connected the battery and we were ready to go. Remote start? Heck yea!! Anybody can start this machine. Runs all night in the camp ground and does not bother a soul!!

I bought the IGen4500 portable inverter generator on November 7 and I just received it today November 13. The initial setup looks straight forward reviewing the procedures and looking in the different doors. Looking forward to getting it all setup and broken in before the next PSPS here in SoCal.
