Description
Remember when you had clean and quiet portable power? The WEN 4800-Watt Inverter Generator provides clean energy, free of voltage spikes and drops, without all the noise of a regular generator. Produce up to 4800 surge watts and 4000 rated watts of power. The keyless electric start lets you turn on your generator at the press of a button, and includes a recoil starter as backup. The WEN Watchdog CO Shutdown Sensor helps protect both you and your family by automatically turning off the generator if dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are detected. Our 224cc engine operates at a modest 62 decibels at quarter load. This limits its invasiveness while camping, hunting, tailgating, and restoring backup power. The WEN 4800W Inverter Generator is also equipped with fuel shutoff. This feature turns off the flow of fuel, allowing for the generator to use up the remaining fuel from the carburetor before automatically shutting down. This helps fight the build-up and blockages caused by stagnant fuel inside of the carburetor, minimizing maintenance while prolonging the unit’s lifespan. Designed to mirror a pure sine wave, this generator limits total harmonic distortion to under 0.3 percent at no load and under 1.2 percent at full load, making it safe to run laptops, cellphones, monitors, tablets and other sensitive electronics. The built-in wheels and telescoping handle make for easy portability while the ultra-efficient 1.9-gallon tank provides up to 7 hours of half-load run time. The fully-packed panel comes equipped with four three-prong 120V NEMA 5-20R receptacles, one 12V DC receptacle, one 120V TT-30R RV receptacle, and two 5V USB ports. Maximize fuel economy by engaging the eco-mode switch. This allows the generator’s engine to automatically adjust its fuel consumption as items are plugged into and unplugged from the panel, preventing the unnecessary usage of gasoline. Need more energy? Easily link up any two WEN inverter generators using a WEN Parallel Connection Kit (sold separately) in order to share wattage amongst multiple units. Low-oil and low-fuel automatic shutdown combine with the built-in overload protection and indicator lights to safeguard both your generator and your electronics from damage. And because this is a WEN Product, your inverter generator comes backed by a 3-year limited warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians, and a friendly customer helpline. Remember when your generator powered your electronics safely and quietly? Remember WEN.

Great generator
WEN…it’s already had some use after the purchase because of wind storms and power outages.
It’s strong, electric start and has a backup pull start and starts quick. It’s fairly quiet and if camping or used with a RV, can be positioned so the sound is diminished. It has a sturdy pull handle for moving the generator from spot to spot. It is kind of heavy but it’s also pumping out good power.
Eco mode is quieter and governs the motor thus resulting in better economy when using low power consumption. It has 120 and 240 output and since it’s a inverter you don’t need to be concerned with delicate electronics being spiked.
Great generator and I’d recommend it to anyone that needs good power at a decent cost that runs fairly quiet.

Surprised at the DB level.
We were looking for a newer generator for camp. We have a Champion 2400w inverter and itâs really dependable but didn’t have a 30A to run the AC properly. It’s done well for us a good 4 seasons and cold camping. New camper=new generator. We were using an older (louder) 4500w Champion until this arrived to open slides and test AC. The DB difference is pretty amazing. The WEN appears well built. The pull-out handle and wheels are a nice add. The only negative is the oil drop. There is a port to release the 10mm screw, but the oil drips out from under the machine. You’ll need to put the generator on a table or stand and create a port under it to catch the used oil. Our Champions funnel out the side. No biggie. The push start is tricky. It has a delay. Push the start and wait about 3-5 seconds. One trick I have found recently is to pull the rip cord out slowly until there is some tension, then give a good pull to start (or press the start button). This has resulted in one pull starts for all my rip cord machines. Mower, chainsaw and other generators. I ran it 10 hrs then changed the oil. I did purchase the magnetic oil cap. Worth it. There were some metal grains I cleaned off.
Itâs a tad heavy and bulky, but a quieter beast so far and not much louder than our 2400w Champion, but twice the output. Nice enclosure and easy access to the filter, battery and plug.
The battery does come disconnected. It did have enough juice to spark the 1st start, though.
Overall, I hope this performs well and lasts us a few seasons.

Nice generator… great customer service
I dont write many reviews… but here goes. I read all the reviews on this product, but i was nervous ordering on amazon without a “bricks and mortar” nearby if we had issues. I ordered a Wen touter previously and was really impressed with the durability and price, so… needing a generator for camping mostly i went with this. The price point for 4800w with electric start was great… free delivery? Very good….unfortunately our first generator would not electric start…. i thought… oh boy, heres what i feared! But…. calling Wen customer service was amazing! You get a great person that you can understand! They shipped me a new battery and a new control module. Unfortunately that still didnt fix it, so we had to send it back. Yes draining the oil and gas seemed like it would be a lot of work to send back, but if you think it through, it wasnt that bad. Sent the unit back… they got it on monday, and i had a NEW generator on friday! Just in time to go camping! ***note to all new owners! Press electric start button in until it blinks. Let off button, then do one full press in/let go…. THEN it hesitates for split second then starts! So…. not quite what the directions say! Overall pretty happy

It’s ok
The battery for the electric start will not charge.
It pull starts fairly quickly but I wanted an electric start to make it easier but have been unable to use it.
The wheels and extension handles make it easy to move. And I can load and unload by myself.
As far as working it did power up the 30amp camper and I ran the A/C .
It is hard to get it primed to start at first ,
And takes a little bit of time to keep running.
Seems to do better the more it runs.
It’s not obnoxiously loud but it is definitely louder than most generators it’s size.
But all in all it a decent machine.
I would suggest to the manufacturer to use a different battery.

Great product for the hunting camp
We bought a generator for our hunting camp but it was loud. After reading the reviews for this generator I bought one for our camp. Let me just say this was the best purchase I have made. It works right out of the box, after adding the oil and gas and is super quiet. I have had multiple camp members ask about this generator so they could get one.

DON’T BUY A WEN GENERATOR! READ THIS:
One day delivery – amazing Amazon! The best instruction manual I have ever read. They really address the “stale fuel clogs up carburetors” problem. I got it all set up in advance of Hurricane Helene coming through Georgia. I put it on the deck and rigged a big tarp over it.
It started right up, then shut down. Did this 3 times before I noticed the YELLOW carbon monoxide
light. At first I thought it was detecting too much CO, which was surprising since it was outside on the deck. But then I read that the yellow light means CO detector ERROR – call the company. It won’t run until I get this resolved.
This morning I called their tech line and a guy talked me through taking the thing apart to get to and disable the CO sensor (which I thought was questionable). It was impossible to get to. After screwing around with it for an hour with him, he suggested that I return it, but I had to repack it. The thing weight 100 pounds so that was no easy task. I got it up to UPS and Wen will send me another one. But it won’t arrive until after Helene slams through Atlanta and for sure takes the power out for at least a couple of days. We’ll be in the dark. Needless to say I am disgusted with Wen. DON’T BUY ONE.
