Works just as advertised

Bought this for camping and when the power goes out. Light duty mainly. Its working excellent. Starts on the first pull and pumping out clean power. Read the manual and follow some online guides to break the engine in and you will get your moneys worth. I love how quiet it is.

Exceptional

I was extremely impressed with everything about this generator, iGen2500-CAMO. The user manual was well thought out, it actually has exploded views of the generator and engine, a full parts list, and the electrical schematics! The exact fill oil bottle and screw on funnel, bonus! I filled the tank, set the choke, and it started on the FIRST pull! Excited to put it under load to see how she holds up. Stay tuned.....

Super I/GEN

I purchased this I/GEN because I wanted one lighter than my old regular generator with the same wattage. I got it, put the oil in, put some fuel in and it started on the second or third pull. Checked everything out and it was A O/K. Plugged up some of my equipment and tried it out. It ran just fine. I ran it about 1 1/2 hours, cut it off for about 30 minutes then started it again with no problem. I ran it a while longer and cut it off. I am thoroughly pleased with it. Great buy as far as I am concerned.

Ideal portable generator

This 2500/2200 watt generator is ideal for the homeowner who wants an emergency power supply in the event of unexpected power loss of power that may last from a few hours or for days. This in addition to recreational use for camping or tailgating. A very capable and well built unit.

Works like a charm!

We recently bought an RV and while half our trips are at campgrounds with utilities we spend the other half dry camping and this generator has been great! Runs well, quiet and not too heavy in case I am not around and my wife needs to move it. Would definitely recommend to friends.

Great generator

I was looking for something versatile that would be easy to take camping but could also power some larger household appliances in an emergency. This does both. It is super quiet for a generator and runs great. I like the eco mode for lower loads since it allows the generator to be quieter. Ran smoothly out of the box and starts up first pull since then. No issues to date and I have to echo previous positive reviews.

Generator started in two pulls of the rope and ran quite.

I purchased this product after some internet research on generators. The reviews told me this was a great product, the generator was easy to start and use, and the running noise levels were better than the Honda or Yamaha. I started the generator and plugged several power tools into it and it performed as expected.

Looks Good

I bought this last summer for my RV and was a bit disappointed that it will not power my AC. I did some research and was sure it had enough power but it doesn't. I have not really used this other than to check to see if it would power the AC. It does run quiet and has enough power to do anything else I need on the RV.

Igen2500

Arrived with damaged spark plug and cap.Spark plug was found installed and bent at an angle with damage to the ceramic and the plug cap (boot). This could not have happened in transport. It had to be installed this way. (Poor aim and too much force when tapping the cap onto the plug. The rest of the machine looks great. I will try and get a new plug and cap from Westinghouse. Can't wait to try it out (after I get the parts).

Easy to operate and Quiet Running

Purchased this generator after comparing it against the top brand. Good value for the purchase price. Only have used the generator twice so far. Ran what I needed to run. Pretty quiet for a generator. Easy to operate. I will wait to see how it works during winter ice fishing!
