Size, features, weight and noise levels of this generator are up to par with the "Red Brand", but the purchase price is much more reasonable. We use this portable generator for boondocking and it performs well. The generator is hard to start at times and needs several pulls before it starts to run. But once it runs, it is fine. We wish that some sort of pull cart would be available so it would be easier to move around. Conclusion: This is a fine generator - we would definitely buy it again.

After I lost the entire contents of my refrigerator during our last power outage I needed a generator. The iGen2500 easily powers my refrigerator, freezer and sump pump with power to spare. It starts easily and is extremely quiet. This is the perfect generator for my needs.

Generator used as emergency power for aquarium. Starts on first pull and is quiet with small load. Gets louder than expected with heavy loads but might be true with all portable generators. Biggest gripe is fuel gauge and remaining run time are very inaccurate.

Item was well packaged and delivered in a timely manner. All looks ok with unit. Filled with oil and ran very little. So far seems to be well designed, light weight, compact and user friendly. I will make update after more use; however, with very limited use - so far so good. I was looking for a cover but guess I have to settle for the cord.

I purchased the iGen2500 to get me through a couple of power outings sure to happen this winter. I’ve tested it several times and am very pleased with how quiet it is. Also the helpful LED display is easy to read and understand. I tested it in the field to run an electric hydraulic log splitter and to power a heater and a wet vac in my garage. I used the USB port to charge my phone just to make sure it worked during other tests. It is easy to start, easy to maintain, and I confidently recommend this generator.

The inverter started up on the first pull. The box arrived through the USPS in great condition (no damage). Once unpacked, I filled the crankcase with oil, turned the knob to the choke position and gave it a pull. It started on the first pull. The inverter ran great and was nice and quite. The build quality, the materials used and the fit and finish are great. At this point I am very happy with this purchase.

I purchased two of these. One product runs top notch, spot on! The other one however.... Upon opening the box one of the cover screws fell out, (Part #100507 Screw M6x16) and I can not re-install. Would not start. I replaced the spark plug with a NGK plug and the motor fired right up. Engine stalled out and died after running 30 mins without any load. Repeated the same process while I was seasoning the engine. three times the engine died with less than 2 hrs run time total. I may have to contact the manufacturer if I can not resolve this.

I recently purchased the iGen2500 following several long power outages in our area from storms. I was looking for something that was small, relatively quiet, and could power a few essentials like our large refrigerator/freezer, the internet (modem / router) and our computers / phones. I tested the generator for several hours and it easily handled all the loads and was very fuel efficient as well. I will now has some peace of mind when the next storm hits.

I bought two of these for use when camping with my 40ft Fifth Wheel. I am very happy with how quiet they are and the ease for storage. They are light weight and easy to carry. Looking forward to using these on the road. When running them, I don't even hear them inside the camper.

This is the second iGen2500 Inverter generator that I purchased to attached it to my other unit with a parallel cord to provide extra power. This works great providing the power we need for our pop up food stand. The two units together powers all of our fryers, heating lamps and night and decorative lights (5,000 peak watts and 4,400 running watts) for our branded tent. Lightweight 48lbs; very quiet 52dB, which is necessary for street festivals, 1.0 Gal. fuel tank which runs for 10 hours at a 25% load. Great little setup that meets all of our needs.
