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.

Good construction, light weight, and started well

I unpacked the unit last night and everything was as advertised but, when I attempted to start the unit with propane, I couldn't get it started. I added gasoline and followed the instructions again and it started up. I called support this morning and they are sending me a new regulator for the propane tank. I'll have to update later

Easy to set up and very portable

Once you unbox this unit and fill it with oil, you're set. Just select the fuel type and you'll have power. It's relatively light for the amount of power it generates. Great for keeping the fridge cool for interruptions in power or for bringing the comforts of home to the outdoors.

Just What I Wanted

I bought this for use at my deer camp to provide lighting in my pole barn after those evening hunts. Has all the features I need. Great that I can use gasoline or the propane tank from my grill to power this thing. Starts easily. When hunting season is over I will take it home for emergency backup power.

Fridge and Freezer Saver

We had some big storms come through and knock out power for a few days. After 24 hours out I purchased this Generator. This easily powered my fridge and full size deep freezer. Plus we were able to run another cable inside to power. our entertainment center. Very quiet! This will come in handy going camping.

Great Generator For The Price

I bough this generator 2 weeks ago and have used it for a while so i can review it properly. I purchased it because of the features it has that are very helpful such as the display. It shows time it will run until empty based on load, how much fuel is in the fuel tank, how many watts are loaded on the generator, engine hours which is helpful for maintenance, and how many liters of fuel is left. Its pretty fuel efficient I just finished its break in today so far its running good. Now for the things I don't like. Its not as quiet as i was hoping for but its a small high revving engine up to 5000 rpm so to be expected. The plastic panel on the right side rattles quiet a bit adding to the noise which sometimes is louder then the generator itself. And last it always takes a lot of pulls to start it about 7 to 10 pulls cold even if it just ran the day before about 3 or 4 warm. I start it just like the manual says but still is hard to start cold and warm. But overall a decent generator if you can get over the hard starting sometimes.

Great value

I wanted a generator that was small, portable, quiet, and nimble. This one allows for gasoline or propane, which offers flexibility. Great for camping or powering a few things in the house. It came with everything I needed to start it. I think it would be tough to beat for the price if you just need something to power an item or two.

Great little dual fuel

I am pleased with the generator, work great on Eco mode, powering my refrigerator, freezer, TV and media, as well as plenty of power on the main mode to take care of any other household needs in the event of a power loss just what I wanted and with the dual fuel, I don't have to worry about the carburetor getting gummed up on propane.

Exceeds expetations

I received this inverter this week to use for camping. After connecting it to propane it stated up and ran after a few easy pulls. There are very few fumes and the control panel is easy to understand. Our camping adventures are going to be much easier with this very portable quiet unit. I can't wait.

IGen2550DFc

This unit will be a great addition to my travel trailers ability to be self sufficient. Having the 30 amp receptacle will make it for easy connection along with the dual fuel feature, and light weight, I will be able to operate the iGen 2550 with my onboard propane tanks. Can't wait for camping season to start my charging arsenal.
