Works great for my travel Trailer and Home

I bought this with the purpose of powering my 30ft travel trailer and as a backup for my home. It ran everything in my trailer including A/C, electric water heater, water pump, and moved the slides in and out and never reached 50% load capacity. Just sitting outside less than 10 feet away and could hardly hear it.

Igen 4500 troubles but Still love it!

I wrote a review a couple days ago had a little trouble getting it started at first, thought it had something to do with having to hold the start button till the green light blinking then taping the start button but that quit working. I ended up finding after all that it was just like other bad reviews the automatic choke was not working, I opened the face and the side panel with the pull start cord on it and found the choke wiring harness was unplugged. I did a lot of research before buying this generator and the only bad reviews were because of this same problem so was kind of expecting it. The other bad reviews go back a couple of years so am surprised they haven’t figured out a fix for this issue yet but a simple fix if slightly mechanically inclined and have a philips screw driver and a 10mm socket. After plugging in harness it starts on the first try every time,

I did a lot of research and decided on this generator for our new RV. It is quiet, powerful and fits my needs well. It arrived in good shape and was easy to start up the first time.

Oil Change is a Pain
on August 22, 2020
Posted by: Long Island 4VR

This is the first generator that I have ever bought and due to its' high reviews I thought it will work well for me. Setup of the generator was straight forward and easy. I tested the machine for several hours and decided that I would change the oil because "now" is a convenient time for me. I did not want to be tackling it for the first time during a power outage. I found access to the oil change plug very difficult to manage. The opening in the plastic case had a couple of sharp edges and it was a very tight area to get a wrench into and maneuver. It would have been MUCH EASIER if the access panel cover was a little larger on the lower left side. That would allow a socket wrench direct access to the oil plug screw and the process would save much time and scraped knuckles. The machine worked flawlessly even under the load of an electric heater and toaster oven and it was relatively quiet. Overall I am pleased with the generator but I am NOT looking forward to the next oil change.

Just bought this product, and so far so good! Exactly as advertised, and super clear instructions for usage (benefit of American-made!)
