Early review

Just bought this generator and broke it in. Generator wouldn't start and had to manually choke the engine. The electronic choke didn't work. I downloaded the service bulletin regarding this issue and found a disconnected wire. The wire was connected and the generator starts up as designed. I broke-in the generator without and with a load changing the oil between each cycle. Glad I did. The oil was dirty after the first few break-in cycles.
This generator is used for a 5th wheel trailer. Appears to work great for what I use it for. This unit replaced two older Honda 2000s.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very quiet generator

We received our generator, and went through the setup process. I was surprised at how easy it was to start the generator using the manual pull start, the electronic start and the remote start. No regrets on this purchase. Super quiet. I was standing right next to the generator having a conversation with a friend who is hard of hearing with no problem.

Great portable generator

I researched generators after going through a winter storm and losing power for 13 days. The iGen4500 had great reviews and is the perfect size for running refrigerator, freezer, propane heater, coffee pot, TV and a few lights next time we have a power outage. The generator started right up after I added oil and gas. Runs very quiet.

Just got this generator and finished breaking it in. This generator started up easy, was super quiet and has awesome features. The electric start works good and I really like the digital display.

Heavy but quiet

The generator is pretty heavy to lift in and out of a vehicle alone but it is very quiet.

Great Value

I spent a significant amount of time researching inverter generators before purchasing this model. After following the initial start-up instructions, the generator started with no problem and seems to operate flawlessly. Looking forward to our Memorial Day weekend campout and putting some hours on this machine! Hope to have the same review 5 years from now.

Very quiet, perfect for our RV

I bought this after reading reviews that the generator was quiet enough to talk next to. It supplies plenty of electricity to the RV and is not loud like most other generators are.
