Ratings & Reviews for Champion Power Equipment RV Ready with Quiet Technology and CO Shield 4500 Starting / 3650 Running Watt Gasoline Single Fuel Portable Generator

Awesome size and Power output.

Bought this a couple months ago to power my Camper for a Nascar race. Super efficient ran for 3 days straight. Very portable and the design allows for it to fit under my truck bed cover while transporting. Very quiet unit even on a full load. Was able to run a A/C unit on Cool and another unit on fan, 2 TVs and charge all our devices.

Great Generator

We purchased our Champion Generator because it was highly rated and we plan to use it when we boondock in our Coleman RV. We wanted one that was quite when we used it on cold nights and it fits the bill. We needed it because we follow our granddaughter in travel softball and there some areas that a campsite is not close to the fields. It came highly recommended by our Camping World dealer. So we are excited to have purchased our new Generator.

Great RV Generator

Great small footprint generator to run our RV. We like to boondock or stay in unimproved parks near the ocean. This 4500w open frame inverter generator is reasonably priced and weighs in at 75lbs. The only drawback is that no wheel kit is provided. I use a skateboard! Set up was easy and it starts easy. I would recommend this to anyone for this use.

Reliable power

Needed reliable power on the job site and this inverter did the trick! Starts right up with minimal effort. Able to power multiple power tools at a time, and also powered my lights, waterheater and fridge during overnight power outage. If you want quiet, go solar. If you want reliable power, this inverter is a great choice!

Great features

Bought this a couple weeks ago and love it

Exactly as Advertised!

I just purchased this generator from a local dealer. I followed the quick start setup and my generator fired right up first pull! I haven’t had to use it in a power loss situation but it is super quiet and so far I love it! Thanks!

Works great right outta the box!

I set this up for propane only and fired it up today. I was delighted to find that even with a weak propane tank, it started up immediately with no struggle. I haven't had a chance yet to set up the power transfer box on my subpanel, but I'm feeling very confident and quite delighted with my purchase.

Great size and price

Great size and price but the CO secure is too sensitive for my liking and it’s not the quietest around but tolerable. Starts easy, good choices of plugins, and select between 120 and 240 volts.

4500W open frame inverter generator

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this unit during the fires in Los Angeles California due to the public safety shutdowns where SCE turned of the power to try and prevent arcing and starting a fire This unit ran 24/7 for 5 days straight ran my entire toy hauler lighting, electrical and AC unit without even flinching best feature in my opinion is it has a 30 amp rv plug right on the unit so no need for adapters or rewiring required Great little unit

Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently bought this generator - I did not NEED it, but it was almost half off and have loved it - GREAT product!

Great Reliable Generators

I bought this product a couple of weeks ago to replace my aging inverter generator. This inverter has worked great just like my other Champion generator. I believe I will get many years out of this one as the last. Thanks Champion!

Great Products!

So far so good. Purchased this product a week ago and it has been running flawlessly. Decently quiet and lighter than our previous Champion 4500 enclosed inverter generator. Hopefully this one will be as dependable as our other one which we still have. It stopped running a few days ago and will need some type of repair which I will get to when it warms up. After all it does have over 3400hrs of running time with no issues. Valves have been periodically checked and have never been our of spec. Re...

Great for cold weather jobs

I bought for a specific reason, in the cold North Dakota winters to plug in my block heater for my semi truck, I must say the run time was awesome over 14 hours on one tank of gas, all the plug ins were sealed from the elements and had plug in for 220 heavy duty cord and a plug in for a camper I’m really impressed now. It was -21 degrees outside and snowing heavily, that generator didn’t miss a beat I am definitely a champion customer now the price was very affordable compared to other brands an...

Great runtime very efficient

I live in a high wind warning area with power outages and needed a reliable power source I could depend on. I purchased model 201049 inverter open frame generator and am very satisfied with product.

Used after Florida Hurricane Milton

Easy to use. Inverter generators are definitely quieter. Ran generator for 5 days. Initially did not start in Choke position. Switched to Run and started with no issue. I would recommend a generator for anyone living on Gulf Coast.

Carpenter

Bought this three months ago and have been running it hard 6/7 days a week in the cold New England weather on a construction site zero issues performs great so far

Easy to use. Great quality but not quiet

Highest rated generator on Consumer Reports. Instructions were crystal clear. Unboxing and initial break-in was a breeze. Easy to change the oil. Engine runs great, though it's louder than I expected. With "Quiet Technology" in the description, I expected it to be quieter than my lawn mower, but it wasn't. It's really heavy, so it would be nice if it had wheels (or instructions for adding wheels). I was able to power a fridge, freezer, and light during break-in period. Flawless operation. I'm ve...

Fan for life

This has been the easiest generator to operate easy to set up , easy instructions, great gas run time.

201049/201054 generators

Model 201049 (201054 simply adds wheels/battery/electric starter) received Consumer Reports top rating for mid-sized generators in 2024. Unit seems well-built and well-documented, including downloadable parts list with detailed diagrams. I've only put 5 hours on my unit so far, so I will need to follow up later with an update to my review. Here are some notes/highlights/corrections regarding the operator’s manual: Do not check for spark with the plug removed. Do not screw in dipstick when che...
