Bought this back in October, 2021 to avoid another potential ice storm in Central Texas like in 2020. I have used the more conventional generators in the past for various events like for bouncy houses and P/A systems. Finding where to put those generators was always difficult as they were so loud. When I fired up the iGen4500 for the first time to do the initial 'burn-in', I thought maybe something was wrong how quiet it was and it wasn't even in eco mode. I read up on the benefits of an inverter generator but hadn't used one yet so I was happily surprised I wouldn't be keeping the neighbors up if we needed to run it later in the evening. I haven't had to use it with large equipment needing more power yet, the first will be in the spring (unless we hit another ice storm first).
I chose the dual-fuel model as I prefer propane over regular gasoline. Easier to store and doesn't need any additives like stabilizer.
Having it's own start-up battery was the final pro that convinced me. Reading that the battery will charge while the generator is on is an added bonus. I have a gas-powered pressure washer and I'm constantly having to remember to charge it before use or having to deal with the pull string.
Inverter generators are known to be lighter in weight. It's still a combustible engine , with a built-in battery, so it still has some girth to it. I recommend two people to lift it up. The extendable handle works great and it's easy to move around.
As I mentioned, I haven't had it very long with minimal use but extremely happy with the purchase!

Great features at a reasonable cost

I bought this generator to power a boat lift on our dock. I looked at a number of other “quiet” generators and felt this model offered the best features at a good price. I haven’t used this yet at the dock but set up and started at the house, easy to start and quiet both gas and propane. Remote start an added plus.

Dual power,invertor and size/weight features

I purchased this model generator for its size, dual fuel and invertor for low THD
Also the reviews I read was another reason as was positive. Weight is another reason

Easy Setup and Quiet

Fuel, Oil and connect the battery. Fired up on 2nd pull. Checked remote start and push button, both started it up immediately. Quick load test from my spare fridge and everything is looking and sounding great. No real run time to speak of just yet that's the only reason for 4 out 5 stars.
Recommend keeping the oil container for future service.
