Older Generator quit working while Camping with my RV , ordered IGen4500 arrived within 3 Days. Unpacked, very easy to get through the initial setup to get it running. Started up at first try. Love the Pull Bar which i didn't even know about so much easier to pull the generator. Remote start is a HUGE + ... Enough power to go around and quiet ... GREAT Design with easy access panels.
Bought this generator for the wildfire control power outages here in N. Cal. Unit works as advertised and I am very pleased with the generator. Very quiet and long running and the remote start is handy. Have run it a total of about 50 hours and it handled all the loads fine.
I bought this generator the turn around time for purchasing to delivery was excellent less than a week. It has all the features I was looking for. It started right up and handles everything I was hoping it would with ease.
Please note! We got ours to run our 50 amp RV camper trailer when dry camping during deer season and are having issues with it revving up for no reason. We are still trying to figure out this issue but when speaking with Westinghouse customer service we were told this inverter may be too small for our camper - even though we are only running 30 amps, not the full 50. I do like the remote start and quiet running of the machine.
My wife and I are in our mid 90's and live in California where Power Co. turns off Power on a whim. This iGen4500 has the features to power our two refrigerators and the batteries of a power wheelchair. Delivery was exceptionally fast. Instructions are detailed.
Unpacked filled oil, connected battery and added fuel. Followed start up guide and then pushed start and the generator started immediately. Tried the FOB on and off no problems at all. Great experience and looking forward to next camping trip.
