Haven't used it much yet but it seems to runs fine when it's going. Fairly quiet, not as smooth running as others. It is a little slow to start however which I think may be related to the choke issue. I think it would benefit from a better choke design.
I bought the generator to run my new travel trailer. It works as advertised. I can run the A/C and the microwave at the same time with no problems. It has started on the first or second try every time.
The iGen4500 model is exactly what I was looking for in a portable generator. Camping without full or partial hook-ups have always been a struggle, but not now! This generator will run our air, lights, microwave, and other appliances with ease. Now we can camp at the best locations without having to sacrifice our simple camping pleasures!
Bought this generator to replace one that had become unreliable (different brand) We use it to power our BBQ trailer. I came as described and after going through the check list and putting the oil and fuel in it, it fire right off after just 3 pulls. Put it on the supplied charger and tried the remote start the next day. Started right up and very quiet even when not in eco mode. Almost as quiet as my Honda 7000 that I use for my travel trailer. Will give is a good run at the next cook off and re-edit this review after afterwards
Have ran it two hours,with no problems. Hooked up the battery, added oil and gas. Hit the start button and it fired right up. Battery charge input socket was very loose, so removed the front panel and tightened the jam nut. Easy fix. Impressed with all the features for the price. If not for the charging port I would have given five stars. Happy with my purchase so far, would buy again.
I just bought this I unboxed it prepared it in 15 minutes press the remote starter it started up it’s been powering my camper with a 13 five AC unit for the last six hours and I just went and cook something in the microwave to check it and it’s perfect ! I did a ton of research and had to parallel Honda 2000’s and I’m getting more cleaner excellent power out of this unit. I am convinced that this runs quieter than a single Honda 2000 I
