Great features

Bought this after much review. Lance trailer ac uses 16 amps. This unit has 20 amp capacity, which is why I chose the 2500. Started first pull. The 2500 has digital readout for run time, voltage, remaining fuel level, eco mode, auto shutoff if overloaded with reset. Unit is quiet and only 50 pounds. Owners manual is comprehensive. Unit does not have a fuel shutoff outside of the off/run/choke but does have an easy way to empty carb bowl and drain gas, all included in owners manual.

WORKS AS DESCRIBED

Everything as described, no issues like the one in the reviews. Clean, nothing broken,good packing and fast shipping. Started up on third pull, two on choke and then one on run. Day later started on two pulls one choke one one run. Good value, very pleased.

Nice Generator

After searching for a small generator and reading many reviews, I decided to purchase the Westinghouse iGen2500. It came well packaged and after adding oil and gas, it started on the second pull. The generator is very quiet and runs smoothly. It responds well to loads and is quite strong for its size. There are many good small generators on the market but the deciding factor for me was the Digital Data Center feature. It allows me to monitor the status of the generator at a glance and includes an hour meter. It is well designed and user friendly. Overall, I could not be any more satisfied with my iGen 2500.

Super happy with my purchase!

Was packaged very well, filled the oil with the included oil and screw-in funnel which made is mess free. Followed the direction for run operation. Fired up second pull. Runs very smooth and very quite in Eco mode. Eco mode worked great, used a 3 power level small heater to test accuracy - as I switch to each increasing heat setting it bumped up the throttle accordingly. The control panel info and output ports options are fantastic.

Very Good

I bought this during the winter storms but it didn't arrive until afterwards. However, we had a big storm this past weekend and lost power. This generator worked like a champion. A little louder than I was expecting, but I didn't really know what to expect as this is my first generator. I'm thinking about getting an identical one for even more power!

Just what we needed

Bought this primarily for backup power during temporary power outages. Haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but assuming it functions as advertised it is just what we needed. Small and light enough for easy storage, quiet, and with enough capacity to keep our refrigerator and/or freezer cold plus operate our TV and computer to keep up with related news.

Very user friendly

So far so good. Set up instructions for installing oil and tool kit were easy to understand, unit started on the first pull and was actually quieter than I expected! The only reason I didn't give a 5 star review was longevity I want to see how it is running a year or more from now.

Exceptional

I was extremely impressed with everything about this generator, iGen2500-CAMO. The user manual was well thought out, it actually has exploded views of the generator and engine, a full parts list, and the electrical schematics! The exact fill oil bottle and screw on funnel, bonus! I filled the tank, set the choke, and it started on the FIRST pull! Excited to put it under load to see how she holds up. Stay tuned.....

Impressive product

I purchased a month ago. Read and followed the setup and break in instructions. Added oil and gas with fuel stabilizer and it fired right up. I have used it several times during the break in with varying loads. It has performed exceptionally. Everything is accessible for easy maintenance. Well thought out design. I am very pleased with generator.

Fully Meets My Expectations. Quality Built To Last

Researched for a month. Decided to go with a Westinghouse iGen2500 because of its light weight, specs that meet my needs, and reviewed performance. I received my new generator today and could not be happier. From packaging, quality of build, and materials, I can tell that my generator was built with care and built to last. Starts easily; no joke; and is very quiet. Did I mention lightweight? Highly recommended.
