Awesome Generator

I got this generator in January but haven’t used yet as it is winter and not camp season. It’s now April so I am getting ready for use. I filled with oil, fuel, and connected the battery. Unit fired right up both with push start on the unit and with the remote. I let run for 30 minutes to start the breakin period. The unit was quiet especially for the size. I didn’t test with a meter but it’s possibly a little quieter than my Generac 2200 watt inverter. Gave 4 star as I haven’t used at all to be able to give a five star rating. Also it’s nice to have the extendable handle but it feels flimsy like the handle on travel luggage. This unit is heavy so will just have to see how it holds up. Not concerned that handle will affect my like for the generator as the wheels seem big and sturdy.
Did extensive research on generator/inverters and chose this one based off of features, Reviews and Price. Haven’t had long, but absolutely ecstatic that we chose this route!
My husband and I just bought a 30-foot travel trailer for spending time on our land in Central Texas. The iGen4500 was the perfect complement to power the air conditioner and appliances while charging the battery. It starts reliably, has a nice array of electrical outlets, gives good operational information on the control display AND is so quiet. The remote start allows starting the generator from inside the trailer for brewing a pot of coffee and heating up a pastry in the microwave without having to traipse outside in the early morning. We are extremely pleased.
Bought this model for the remote starting capabilities and the power ratings. It started perfectly on the 1st couple revs of the starter and ran quietly as discribed
