Great choice

Just did the break-in and testing and this is by far the easiest generator to operate. 1st pull start. And by far the quietest. Added a run hour meter, which is the only feature lacking. Great buy.

Ideal Size for our use

Got it a month ago and received it within a week or two. Very pleased with the shipping. Instructions to set-up are clear and easy to follow, which is a blessing. Looking forward to using it in the coming months/years.

Very quiet and it started on the first pull

I'm using it to power my RV which it does very well. At such a light weight, it makes it so easy to take along just about anywhere. The absence of the 12V plug-in is the only disappointment I see so far but overall I'm very pleased with this unit

Compact, light and very powerful

This generator provides consistent and clean power. it is almost unbelievable that only 1 gallon provided almost 12 hrs at 25% load. you won't regret getting one of this.

Great little inverter generator.

I’ve had this generator for about three years now, and it continues to start and run flawlessly! Have used it a couple times during brief blackouts to run my refrigerator and a light or two. It has worked well! It barely uses any gas, too.

Portable Generator

Love my portable generator due to its compact size, easy to start, quietness, easy to store just about anywhere. Now I have a power backup just in case.

Good Design

My first one i purchased had a stuck float but the second one is running great. You will love the display on this generator. It really makes a difference! Cheers to ice fishing!

Perfect size, easy to use!!

Bought this handy little generator 2 weeks ago. It's easy to set up and start for a 55+ female. Great size for the small things I need to power and much quieter than I thought it would be. Great purchase!

Perfect Size

Needed some outside the grid power for emergency situations, which seem to be coming more often. It's the perfect size for our needs. It is very quiet and very fuel efficient. Also easy to fuel and start. So for like it very much.

Another reason to not buy

Not only is the iGen2500 a junk generator, Westinghouse likes to lie about the performance. The specification sheet indicates a 52dba noise level. Both of mine do not run anywhere close to 52dba.
