4 out of 5 stars review

Seems to be a great value

After oiling and fueling for first time it started on third pull and ran smoothly. I have not put under load yet but this seems to be a solid product. Great design and easy to carry. I grade at four stars now but would give five if the generator works for a long time.

Great Power for Size and Weight

Just purchased for a power supply to charge batteries when camping. Like the size and weight and that we can use LP rather than having to carry gas. Had a little issue getting it started at first then pulled the spark plug to check the gap. The gap setting was off. Once adjusted, the unit ran fine. Gap setting was reason for 4 stars. Pleased with how quiet the unit runs as well.

Tesla meets Westonghouse.Igen2550 portable Gen.

I bought this for a 4000 mile rd trip with our Tesla. We are road tripping from Kentucky to Prince Edward Island Canada. This made my wife at ease just incase Tesla app or me makes a mistake we can still get a charge. Lol.. Generator holds 1 gallon of fuel and should give me about 80 to 100 miles of charge. It's very quiet compared to the big bad boy generators. Size is not bad as while. I Did have to buy a portable grounding rod with wire because the Tesla portable charger has a safety system and it knows when the power source is not grounded properly. This will be used also for other times just so esay to carry around.

Westinghouse 2550 Invertor

I have had the generator for about 1 month and used it on the ice for a couple of days. It runs very quiet and smoothly. Bought a ground neutral plug to eliminate the fault I was getting when running the ice house invertor. I really like the led lights to show the outlets and provide some light when refilling.

Outstanding Build Quality and Great Price

The Inverter is well built. The build quality is evident while unpacking the unit. We bought this unit to power a small refrigerator dedicated for insulin as well as the large main food and beverage French door refrigerator for power outages. This unit handles both refrigerators with no issue. The unit is very quite as it runs on our deck without disturbing the neighbors.

Camper power

Unit is new. It was in perfect condition and all accessories included, even the break in oil. Started a little hard first time, but easy since. I was looking for dual fuel, light weight, inverter, and 30amp plug for a camper. It runs everything on the camper including the A/C. Have only run for about an hour, but it seems good to me.

Perfect for small camper with soft start AC

Have had it for 1 week and very pleased. Installed soft start unit on 13,500 btu camper ac so I could go with a smaller, lighter and more portable generator. The igen2550DFc has no troubles starting and running the ac along with powering other items in the trailer at the same time. Overall pleased with the decibel levels even at max run. The dual fuel feature is perfect and very flexible.

Easy to use small generator

Had a little trouble starting unit out of the box but Westinghouse support got me up and running. Quiet unit for small jobs like one fridge, lights and device charging. Would certainly recommend for a emergency back-up during post storm power loss and/or camping.

Perfect for 5th Wheel

I bought this for our 5th wheel travels this late Fall/early Winter expecting to be staying in rest stops along the southern tier of the US. It's light enough I can hoist is over the truck bed rails vs the twice as heavy 3100 watt unit I have. I don't have to disconnect the 5th wheel from the truck as I do with that larger unit and set it up. This unit, besides being light is also quiet. The 30A RV receptacle assures we will have power on both circuits of the RV. This will also prove handy should we suffer power outages at the house.

SO FAR SO GOOD

I recently bought the i Gen2550 after extensive research and reading many reviews. I am pleased so far with my purchase. After adding oil and fuel, it started right up on the third pull. And I am extremely impressed with the noise level, extremely quiet for a gas powered engine. I definitely feel comfortable having this unit as a standby for power outages.
