WEN 4800-Watt Portable Inverter Generator, RV-Ready, Quiet and Lightweight with Fuel Shut Off (56477i)

Super quiet and works great. The handle makes it easy to roll around and the connections and directions are easy to understand. I use it for my camper but I live in FL so I also will be prepared for any storms that happen to come along. It starts on the first or second pull every time. Use ethanol free gas, use the fuel cutoff when you are not going to use it for more than a couple of days, do the break in and oil changes, and don't leave fuel sitting in it for a long time and it should last a long time. It's the perfect size to fit in the back of my truck with the tonneau cover on so it's hidden and it's not too heavy to lift or move around. This generator provided more than enough power for my 30amp camper and I used the AC, the microwave, lights, and who knows what else we had plugged in and there was hardly a noticeable power draw.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I bought this generator for my camper and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It starts up effortlessly, even better than my Honda generator at work. The operation is impressively quiet, and it easily powers up my AC, lights, fridge, and microwave without any problems. I also got the high altitude kit and magnetic oil dip stick, which further enhance its performance. The fact that my boss was so impressed that he got one for himself speaks volumes about its quality and reliability. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a reliable power source for outdoor adventures!

I recently bought this generator for my camper, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. It starts up effortlessly, even better than my Honda generator at work. The operation is impressively quiet, and it easily powers up my AC, lights, fridge, and microwave without any problems. I also invested in the high altitude kit and magnetic oil dip stick for added convenience. The best part? My boss was so impressed that he got one for himself as well. Highly recommend this generator for anyone in need of reliable power on their outdoor adventures.

This little generator is the best value I have ever seen. The quality is exceptionally good, and it always starts on the first or second pull. The output of the inverter Meets or Exceeds the Rated Capacity for continuous as well as surge load. (I'm an electrical engineer, and generators are something of a hobby to me. I own a lot of them) This is Huge because a lot of other inverter generators do not come close to the rated output, or suffer Serious voltage drops when subjected to load spikes (like starting an air conditioner). These WEN units provide exceptional surge capability and excel at starting inductive loads like air conditioners (provided you have a soft-start installed). I have a pair of these 56477i units with manual start. They are so easy to start, I see the electric start option as overkill and something else that needs a battery to maintain. Two of these units (with my self-designed Phase Sync Box that creates 240v Split-Phase Power) run my Entire House, including the 4-Ton AC, a 1-Ton Mini-Split AC, Two Refrigerators, A Chest Freezer, and all lights and computers Simultaneously ! I just alternate which one of these I take on trips with my RV so they get even usage, and while at home the pair of them make a very portable 9600 Watt Whole-House Generator (for 1/3rd the cost). I also have four of the 2350 watt suitcase-style generators from WEN. (The 56235i models) I can also say that a pair of the 2350 units do exactly match the power and performance of the 4800. I also run my entire house exactly as stated above using FOUR of the 2350 units with my Phase-Sync Box. Here are a couple of pictures. All I can say is that these units provide exceptional bang for the buck. Keep the oil changed often as these little engines do not have oil filters, and keep fuel stabilizer in the gas.

I was unfamiliar with the Wen brand so was sceptical but the price was very good so I decided to purchase. I've been extremely satisfied with the purchase. I've got a couple hundred hours on the generator with zero issues. It's very quiet, especially for it's size. The plastic body is good quality. I had to put a high altitude kit on it which was easy to get from Wen directly and it was shipped promptly. The weight is manageable with the long telescoping handle and wheels. It's starts with a few pulls every time. The two things that kept me from a 5 star rating are the fuel level indicator which reads wrong sometimes. Also, the switch could be improved. The setting between choke and run is very "soft" and does not have a positive "click" when going from choke to run. Overall, I would purchase again and recommend.

Purchased for use with my camper. I was a little nervous buying, but I'm glad I did. It starts easier than the Honda generator I have at work. Runs quiet, and has more than enough power to run my AC, lights, fridge, and microwave. Zero issues. I did purchase the high altitude kit and magnetic oil dip stick. My boss liked it so much that he bought one for his own personal use too.

Love it
