i just purchased two of these little beasts. They are super easy to start. I purchased them to use side by side for a horse trailer with living quarters since camping with horses is rustic 99% of the time. Once I have used them I will try to come back and leave more feed back. They are pretty light weight for invertors and I can pick them up without too much difficulty. (I'm a senior female)

We bought our generator in preparation of Hurricane Irma after behind left without power for 8 day following Hurricane Matthew. Luckily we didn't need to use it this Hurricane season. We started it up just to check everything and the unit is quiet and powerful. It was easy to start. We are very happy with out purchase.

Will be using for tailgating, although we have Hurricane Irma bearing down on us now. Difficult starting now. Spark plug was screwed in very tight. Once I took it out and reinstalled, it started right up. Starts best when choke isn't fully engaged. Quieter than I expected.

just fired it up so can't provide too much meaningful data but so far i like it. price was right. very easy to use. nice packaging and controls. started very smoothly and runs fairly quiet. writing this review because i was offered a free cover for the generator but now apparently i am not going to be sent one! seems wrong to offer something then take it back. but that's nothing against the generator; more westinghouse as a company

Use it on my boat to run everything at night while on anchor The generator works great I'am not happy about writing this review in order to register the unit. Registering would have been just fine without the review. On top of it, I was told I would get a cover for the unit, instead they stay the covers are not available only the power strips don't need a power strip need a cover. Again the generator starts overtime and powers everything I need it too. Westinghouse you need get better at your marketing.

Easily powered my 13500 BTU Dometic Air Conditioner after installing a MicroAir 364 easy-start circuit in the generator's normal mode. Although, the generator would not start the Air Conditioner in the Efficiency mode. The iGen2500 with the MicroAir is a less costly, more convenient, and much lighter solution than paralleling two 2000 watt inverter generators to run the Air Conditioner. The iGen2500 display indicates about 1600 to 1800 watts when the Air Conditioner is running. The generator's Efficiency Mode is relatively quiet at no load; although at full power, the noise is in the 70+ dbA range at 1 meter. The generator's engine has a small misfire or small backfire when running, but the small misfire/backfire does not seem to effect electrical power output. I use non-ethanol premium gas having a minimum 92 octane rating. Also, the generator runs my electric Stihl chainsaw even in the efficiency mode.

Bought this to use with my RV and as backup/emergency home power. So far works great. Starts right up and is quiet. I am not a scientist but give or take a db or two and it is as quiet as any others out there.....and at a GREAT price! So far I have used it on the RV and around the home. Sometimes it is just easier to grab this than to pull out extension cords for work out my large yard.

I recently purchased this generator to run my new trailer, which has a 15,000 BTW AC. The AC with no other load draws around 1500 watts. Throw in a few accessories; refrigerator, water pump, entertainment, and your well over 1800 watts, which is what most 2000w generators max out at. This little beauty is 2600w surge for AC startup (yes, I did need a hard start capacitor), and 2200w running - and all for < 50 lbs. This is the only generator in the 2500w <50 lb class. The next step up is 3000w and close to 100 lbs. So happy Westinghouse makes this generator.

We have tried other generators and this one does the job. Easy to operate, and the features are great. The gauge is very helpful in knowing the status of the machine at all times. Lightweight, we were impressed with how quiet it is, started first pull out of the box and every time so far. Look forward to many years of use. My wife is able to start it and operate it !!

I have a small 30A travel trailer that can run just fine on 20A, as long as you don't turn it all on at once. This generator provides up to 18.3A (according to documentation) and worked perfectly to run 5000 BTU air conditioner and 2.7'cu fridge and lights, with only 25% load showing on the display. Unsure of exact dB level (claim is 53dB with no load) but very quiet. Simple operation and excellent documentation included (too rare these days).
