Nice small generator

I bought this as an emergency generator - hopefully like insurance it is there but will never need to use it. I have been shopping for one and did a lot of research. Compare to other generators in the same price range - this model has high running watts and more fuel efficiency. Also another key feature is the digital read out - give you an idea of remaining time, fuel level, load level. For someone doesn't run generator regularly this is very helpful and much needed.

Great little generator

We have a large shed with no electricity. I wired it for lights and a fan and bought this generator to power it. I can have it sitting outside the door and still have a normal conversation. It starts easily with a pull or two and purrs for hours. It has a little weight to it, but it's manageable. I also use it at home for power outages to run the upstairs fridge. I'm very happy with it.

Great for camping

My son has the same model Generator, I’ve borrowed it 3 different times when dry camping in our trailer in the Sierras. Really impressed with it, was able to use our microwave and keep the batteries charged up. My wife really liked being able to use her hair dryer and curling iron. Works out really well for us.

Great so far

Generator came a couple days ago. I added the oil and gas, started on the second pull. I used my rv for the break in period. Five hours later I shut it off. I would like to tell you more but that’s all I ran it so far, but those 5 hours it ran great.

Excellent power

Bought this generator so I would have enough power to run the A/C in my 5th wheel. The generator runs smooth and quiet especially on economy mode. The screen gives plenty of information especially on how much more power you have available. It is lite enough to easily carry around.

Perfect for my hotshot trucking setup

I needed a quiet generator to mount in my pickup to power a portable AC for when I am parked overnight at the truck stops. This generator is perfect. Its quiet yet powerful enough to handle the task. For any hotshot trucking operators out there I highly recommend this unit.

Small and Powerful Generator

I bought this generator a month ago ... It worked flawlessly for over 30 hours during the Texas winter storm. It powered my TV , space heater , refrigerator and internet modem. We charged multiple phones and laptops without any issues and it is super quiet . I'm really glad I bought it ...

Easy to put to use!

I bought this unit not knowing how to use it. My work requires remote assignments and I had never purchased a generator before. The first time I filled it with gas I was uneasy as it took a while. But the thrilling part was how easy it started and how well it performed. I am completely satisfied. I highly recommend this generator.

iGen2500

Recieved today. I followed the directions, added fuel,checked all fittings and spark plug gap. Turned on the fuel. It started on the second pull. Not difficult to start at all. I believe even my wife will be able to start it. It is very quiet and especially quiet in economy mode. I'm looking forward to testing it out.
