This unit is a must have for tailgating and weekend camping trips, super quiet and efficient turns camping into glamping! Small enough to tuck into the back of our 2 door wrangler with camping gear and a cooler for weekend fishing trips in the keys! Hopefully we won't have to use it for a hurricane but if so we know the power and reliability is there!

I was a bit worried after reading some reviews online of broken spark plugs right out the box, but mine started up just fine. As someone who knows nothing about generators, this one seems like a good start for the price. For a small inverter, i was hoping it would be more quiet though.

This is a short term review regarding set up and initial start. All necessary materials come in the box, You get a screwdriver, a spark plug wrench, an oil funnel that screws nicely into the oil reservoir for a no spill event, and a bottle of 4 cycle oil for the first fill up. Gassed it up, two pulls with it on choke, and it started right up, then put it on run mode. All control panel features were operational. I let it run for 5 minutes to burn the new smell off which was not that much. I have not connected it yet to evaluate performance.

I bought this generator to provide backup power for my 5th wheel travel trailer when shore power is not available and battery power is depleted. It is small enough for easy handling and powerful enough to handle my single largest load, the air conditioner. It is comparatively quiet but likely not the most quiet model available. But for the money, it is undoubtedly the best choice for my needs. After my initial testing, I am very pleased with this product.

I bought this for our fifth wheel. It started right up, and I was surprised at the efficiency of the unit. It barely used 25% of its capacity with all of the lights on in the camper. On top of that, it is super quiet. Really pleased with this purchase.

My first Igen purchase was 5 years for the 2000ixlt. It’s still running strong and continues to start on one pull. We use it for camping and only done the recommended maintenance. I wanted another for home use and added power during potential blackouts for the upcoming fire season here in Northern California. The Igen2500 should power the refrigerator and freezer with enough to spare to run some lights, tv and computers. If I need more I still have my trusty 2000 (actually puts out 2200). Today it arrived and I did some tests. First I filled with oil, then treated gas (always because of sitting between uses). Then pulled the engine through a few times to lubricate and until compression. A strong pull and it started on the first pull. Hurray! After warming up, I put a 1500 heat gun on to check accuracy on the data display, right on! Plugged in my circular saw and ran both and it maxed out just above 2200 watts but held the load with voltage at 122v. I like that unit only weighs 2#s more than the smaller one and the physical size is the same. Another bonus is it is slightly quieter than the 2000 I think due to more sound insulation. The only drawback is the gas tank is a little smaller, but not enough to create an issue. All in all, Westinghouse did an excellent job again in the design of this model.

This is my first generator. It is simple to operate. It handled the load I needed which included an office space with multiple computers/monitors, an entertainment center, and a rolling A/C unit. I really like the digital display of remaining runtime, power usage, and fuel level. This is my natural disaster and power outage go-to unit. I would recommend the unit.

Love this little generator. Small enough to be easily portable, but powerful enough to do its job. Easy to use, great features. Our power went out for an extended amount of time due to an ice storm, and it was such a relief to have our chest feeezer and garage fridge running and not lose all our food.

I was shocked when I started up the iGen2500. It started on the first pull and is very quiet. We have a 2500 watt Cummins mounted on our camper van, and the iGen is much quieter. We tested it by plugging the van into it and turning on the 13500btu AC unit in the van. You could hear the load it placed on the iGen, but it didn't skip a beat. The volume amped up a bit, but sitting next to our camper van, it's much quieter than the built in Cummins unit. My wife is smitten with it and wants us to bring it with us as a back-up for our camper van. It has a very nice digital display on it, and the build quality is very nice as well. Other than being a bit on the heavy side, we are very impressed!

I bought this to use with my new Camper. Started right up and ran flawlessly for two hours on one cup of gas. Runs everything I need including the AC. Just used it in my shed to power my 1500 amp heater and a light while I was working out there in the bitter cold for a few hours. Support was great when I called up with a couple questions about the LED Display. Would recommend as its very quiet, light enough to carry around with one hand, powerful, and efficient.
