great value!

Got mine about a month ago, broke it in, love the gauges for gas and power, wish 2200 had that, it pairs with my 4500df or you can easily take it camping, cranked on first start, right now everything is great! Sam’s delivered in 3 days! And love the price!

nice size, wt

I just purchased this item. Set up was a breeze. It started on second pull. So easy my wife can easily do it - and she doesn't like messing with it. If it does all that is advertised and other long term reviews say, I will be very happy with the purchase. I like the weight and size. I can easily place it in the back of my elevated PU.

Powerful,efficient and easy to start.Highly Recommended!

I test run my iGen 2500 and it started right up with no issues at all.It was super quiet and very effective.The product came with almost all the things you needed to start it up.The only missing thing was the gas which i know was for safety reasons.It was super easy to set up and operate.The instructions in the manual were pretty easy to follow..it's very economical as far fuel efficiency is concerned.It's the best generator out there in its division and I highly recommend it to everybody.

Check your gas drain petcock!

Filled oil, put in fresh gas, fired up for a 5 min test run. Noticed some gasoline leaking from the bottom, on the concrete. Turned off, let cool. When restarting, noticed gas leaking from under fuel bowl. Found the drain petcock was loose; tightened this, restarted/ran 10 min w/no additional gas leaks or issues. It runs very quiet, and should be easy to utilize on a moments notice. Digital display is nice feature. I am glad I did this before we had a major storm/power outage.

Super quiet quality generator!

This unit is a must have for tailgating and weekend camping trips, super quiet and efficient turns camping into glamping! Small enough to tuck into the back of our 2 door wrangler with camping gear and a cooler for weekend fishing trips in the keys! Hopefully we won't have to use it for a hurricane but if so we know the power and reliability is there!

Quiet and versatile

I use this product to power a travel trailer. I liked it so much I bought another to hook up in parallel to power the air conditioner. The Efficiency mode works great to save fuel and run quietly when the load is lower. The data display is great showing the output and the fuel remaining. Great value!

Easy to Use

Bought 2 after I retired 10/01/2021. Didn't use until 3 days ago when the power went out. After hour 6 I went to the barn and got out one out of the box. Twenty minutes later the Frig and Freezer were back to normal temps. Set the other up 15 minutes later.

The Best, the most quiet and most useful

I love this generator. It is very quiet and turns on very quickly. I use it for outdoor use around my car and home. It has two plugs and I have connected things with high watts and low watts and the generator worked without any problems. The display shows all the important info you need like gas levels and how long it could still work. Efficiency mode is also great. Its a great generator, I recommend highly.

Super quite and adorable

I use a generator on weekends to run four 500watt lights for flounder gigging. I can have normal conversations on the boat while running generator all night, instead of shouting like I've had to do in the past. Not to mention it's about half the price of some brands that offer the same things ( light weight,quite, etc)
