I purchased this to use with my RV. I normally camp where I have electric and water hookups, but this summer I’m going to a location without hookups. The unit is nice because I can carry it with one hand and it has a nice digital display on the front.

The generator arrived with all parts and a good instruction manual. It was great that the included oil was the exact amount needed for the oil compartment. I'm using the bottle to measure the oil for changes. It started on the third pull and ran raggedly for the first 20 minutes then settled into a steady speed. Ran it for an hour, no load, then let it rest for an hour. Started up on the first pull and let it run for 2 hours at varying loads and it ran smoothly. Shut it down and changed the oil. It restarted again on first pull and ran smoothly for another two hours to complete break in. Changed the oil again and it was ready to go. We have used it now for about 60 hours runtime with no problems. It always starts easily on the first three pulls at most and runs smoothly. It's a great generator and I recommend it to anyone who needs an easy start reliable generator.

I purchased this on sale for $399 which I thought was a steal. I was going to just store it in my garage until needed at a later time but noticed the box looked retaped so I decided to open it. Upon opening I smelled gasoline. I called the company and they said it should not smell like gasoline or have gas upon opening a new boxed generator. Was going to exchange but they were sadly out of stock. They are now back in stock but the sale price is no longer available.

I’m very impressed with everything the 2500 has to offer. For a small premium over competitors with much less proven history, you get much more features. Display is user-friendly and simple to understand. A fuel vent would be nice on the 2500. only issue was the inside near the oil cover had some pretty significant damage, and I am hoping westingHouse Will stand by their warranty or resolve the issue with the shipper. I will update this review. I got this unit as an upgrade from a 2350 wen And it is well worth the expense from what I can tell so far.

I bought this several months ago, prepared it to run per the instruction manual and it fired right up on the first pull! It has been running great and I am thoroughly satisfied with the purchase, Great price and certainly competes with brands selling close to twice as much.

Unboxed, pleased to find oil and tools enclosed. Package arrived in good shape. Read the quick start guide, added the oil and filled tank with gas. Pulled one time to get some oil circulated, turned to choke and started first pull! Used about 30 minutes trimming a large hedge, ran great.

Received and after a moderate break-in with a couple oil changes, immediately put to use. Ran Lucas Safeguard Ethanol Fuel treatment. Initial quality is there and I was happy that it started and ran my 13.5 BTU A/C on our first outing. Just barely though. And there were a couple instances where the breaker did trip between A/C compressor cycles. That said, it was an incredibly hot weekend! I also had some trouble restarting between fuel changes and general rest periods that I would give it. Seemed heat related. Also, oil had to be added after approximately 15 hours of first, hard Use which I would consider normal. There also were periods of rough running, hence the initial 4 Stars. Quiet as advertised and besides a couple concerns, I think if we'll maintained, this will be a great unit, particularly with a second in parallel!

I spent months looking for the right generator to add a collection of emergency preps. It was important to get something that would run my computers without blowing them up, be easily moved and easily stored. This by far stood out so I was super happy when it arrived. It worked like a dream and I feel far better prepared knowing I have instant portable power

I have had this for about a month and I'm very happy with it so far. Put oil and gas in it and started it up on the first pull. The iGen2500 is very quiet, fuel efficient, and has plenty of power. I know I made the right decsion purchasing tis model.

Seldom used back up generator Overall performance fairly good. It will run small to medium load with ease. Has some design issues that should be worked out. Oil fill and check point is tedious to access, even though according to the directions this should be checked at each use (and voids the warranty if not checked). Oil cap is easily cross threaded.
