Excited!

Purchased to run our 15,000 RV air and lights when we don't have electric. (We installed microair soft start to AC). This generator works great so far... running it at home. We've not been able to try it for long periods camping because its wintertime.

quiet

I had a small difficulty removing the access cover the first time even though I had removed the 2 phillips screws. In desperation I pried the cover off enough to get fingers into it. One of the small guiding pegs broke off as I was doing this. I will try to glue it back on but I am not hopeful that it will stay fixed.

Works well

I like the information display. I put the oil in it included with the box fueled it up and it took a few pulls to get it started the first time, but after that it starts with one pull. It will power my every trailer microwave and lights. Not enough power for the A/C alone but I did not expect it would.

Nice portability, fuel efficiency & quietness

I bought this to accompany me on overlanding adventures in my new Jeep. I removed it from the box, read the entire manual (that's just how I am), followed instructions for the 5 hour break-in period and it started on the second pull. Very quiet and easily handled anything I would be taking with me on my camping trips. In fact, to drive the load up, I plugged in two space heaters and ran them on high to test it. No problem. I'm happy with my purchase.

Great price/performance

Needed emergency electrical power due to wildfire and electrical outage and after reviewing other generators we decided on this Westinghouse Igen2500. Great value considering price/performance and 3 year warranty. Delivered timely with no damage as it was well packaged. Included was oil, tool kit, funnel, and user manual(s). Setup was easy and the generator started on the 2nd pull. Sound was acceptable. All works as advertised. Very pleased.

Extremely easy to Start and Runs Quiet

If you need an easy and quiet generator that doesn't break the bank, look no further. I unboxed this, added oil and gas, and had it started in less than 3 mins. It also shocked the amps out of me how quiet it runs. Definitely recommend buying this over that costly Honda.

QUITE PLEASED WITH PURCHASE

Powerful and quiet generator

We were very surprised at how quiet this generator was. We plugged in our camper and even with the ac running, this generator never moved off of the 0 percent power used meter. With a gallon of gas, we showed 9 plus hours on the hour meter until empty. Perfect for camping or tool shed for power needs. Won't have an issue running fridge or freezer when power goes out. Great buy.

Fuel efficient and quiet

We just recently purchased this and tested it out on our 2100 sqft house. We could have the fridge, tv and lights on with no problem. We were looking for something more compact, quieter and something that wasn't forcing us to constantly get gas during an outage. Excellent purchase!

Easy Startup

I bought this over a month ago and finally got around to putting oil and gas in it. I should have done it sooner because it was so easy. Cranked right up on the 2nd pull. I don't want the power to go out, but I'm thankful for the peace of mind this gives us. Already tested it with a 1500 watt heater and 50ft cord. It revved up flawlessly.
