perfect BUT
on July 5, 2021
Posted by: Bob's gen sets
from Deep South Texas @ Mexican border & Gulf of Mexico
I was elated to find ALL the features I needed and made in the USA by an American company!
But,
I purchased 2 of these, a month apart and BOTH had shameful defects in assembly. Things like : The battery was just stuffed in it's compartment with loose terminal connections and strap not hooked. and the battery compartment cover was just lying in the bottom of the box. Not sure if the battery bouncing around pushed the cover off or, whoever put the battery in, just threw the cover on the box.
The other had loose bolts rolling around in the shipping box. I figured out where they all went except one square nut with a threaded hole in it. I have no idea where it goes or to whom I can send a photo of it so I can get instructions on how to proceed or if I should not bother and just return it!
My purchase was inspired by my appreciation of Westinghouse designers that came up with the A4W Nuclear reactors for Aircraft carriers and so many other outstanding success stories.
I need 2 covers for my 2 Igen 4500df generators plus a text from someone that can help me with this extra nut... it looks special & important.

Generator was super simple to set up and came well packaged. Starts up first try with no issues. Lots of great features making this very handy to have around the house along with small and simple to take on the go in the RV. No issues running the A/C unit in my RV as it has plenty of power.

Easy set up. Started on the first push. Even quieter than I could have imagined. You can have a conversation standing right next to it without raising your voice.

Love the dual fuel

The variable speed motor only runs as fast as needed and this saves fuel and also keeps the noise level down.

This generator is well engineered. Well made and as a lot of features. I put oil in it and read the starting directions and it fired right up and is real quiet. Very happy with it.
