Choke Cable Loose

The only reason I did not give a 5 star review, the choke cable was loose and out of adjustment. After a 15 minute repair the generator starts on the first pull of the starter cord.

Excellent Generator

We lose power periodically in East TX. I can run 2 refrigerators, counter top ice maker, coffee pot, 75 in TV, DVR, DVD player and router. It only holds a gallon of gas. It'll run between 6 and 10 hours on 1gallon. Wife and I love it.

Very hard to start

This generator is very hard to start. I have to pull at least 15-20 times and then sometimes it still hasn't started. Absolutely horrible. I was also supposed to get a free cover shipped to me and that has not happened.

Generator

I bought this a couple weeks ago Incase of power outages and it doesn't stay running for more then 45 seconds at a time and it's brand new! Disappointed

Purchased 2 and a parallel mit

Absolutely love these units. The have a large 7000W inverter and purchases two of the oven 2800c for portability. The day I received, was able to use them without issue.

New Purchase, Igen2800c

Just unboxed my new iGen2800c. The setup was easy and the generator started on 2nd pull. So far, so good. I am happy with my purchase. Hopefully. I won't need it, but hope to keep the fridge going with it during the next power outage.

Works Like A Charm

I use this when the power goes out at my house. It's quiet, pretty fuel efficient, and is easy to set up for first use and starts up easily and reliably. Pretty straightforward product, does what it's supposed to. I have no complaints.

Peace of Mind

After a disastrous power outage, I researched an efficient, affordable generator. The Westinghouse was highly rated and seemed the most straightforward to operate. I don't believe there is another brand that builds such sturdy, reliable equipment.

Easy to start, relatively quiet and light weight

I bought this a month ago to have emergency power when the power goes out at my home. Relatively lightweight and easy to start for a generator. Supplies adequate power for my needs

Works great, when it works

I used this inverter for two weeks. It ran great and did what I hoped it would. Then it shut down and hasn't started since. I believe there is an electrical problem. I hope it will be fixed.
