Compact and full of features

This compact generator is just the right size for the applications I intend to use it for. After the massive power outage here in S Texas in February this year I lost the capability to heat my well pump head and pool pumping apparatus (we live in the country and have our own drilled well) - serious damaged pipes and pumps etc. With this generator I will be better prepared this year and have piece of mind.

Easy to use and great features

Bought this after loosing power for a week after a hurricane. Tested it and it easily runs our refrigerator, microwave, TV and satellite, satellite internet and Wi-Fi and a power strip to charge our phones and use a couple of lamps. Had plenty of power left over if we need to run a few other things. Hopefully we won't need it but if we do we are well prepared now.

Does the job

I bought two of these i2500 in January and have had a chance to use the for a bit now. I have had no issues and they both run strong. I use them with my travel trailer 27ft jayco. Wish they came with a parallel cord like some other brands however I still need to order one. The oil changes are a breeze and they have enough power for what I need. Have I heard quieter ones…yes…are they quiet enough….yes.

Great Product

My wife bought this as a gift for me. After reading owner's manual & online reviews of this product, I couldn't wait to test this unit out. I'm build a deck on my house, so I figured this would be an opportunity to test unit out. This generator performance is OUTSTANDING! I was able power multiple construction tools, keep my cell phone & bluetooth speaker continuously charged, yet, provide necessary power to my miter saw & skilz saw, along with keeping my cordless battery charged for my cordless impact/drill.

Great Portable Generator

I upgraded from the iGen2200 so it will now safely power the 15000btu ac on the RV. Just like the first generator, I added oil and gas and it started with just a couple pulls on the rope. My friend with a red one was surprised how quiet it is and inexpensive it is. So am I!

Super quiet and very fuel Efficient!

This lightweight packs a big punch, there isn't anything it can't power (within it's limits) would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a remote power supply option. Added oil and fueled up, it fired on the first pull and has been running flawlessly since day one.

Great Buy!

My first experience with a generator. Very pleased with quality of unit and set up instructions. Previously had power outage and lost considerable amount of refrigerated products. Although I purchased the unit back in April of this year, I didn't need it until the middle of June. A tree took down power lines and this unit saved the day, as well as the items stored in the refrigerator and freezer!!

Great Generator and Excellent Value

Put in the oil and filled with gasoline and it started right up. The "load sensing" or "eco-mode" works great with the generator idling when power is not required but if your refrigerator for example turns on, the generator speeds up to meet the power demand. Haven't used it long enough to know about long-term durability, but it runs great, puts out good power, and seems well-designed. The only thing I wish it had that it doesn't is any hour meter, but I bought an "after-market" hour meter so I will know how many hours it's operated between oil changes. Very hard to justify buying another brand and paying more when this seems to work so well. Very happy with my purchase. I had a question and Westinghouse customer service was very responsive even in the middle of the China virus shut-down.

So Far So Good

Generator arrived promptly after ordering. It had no physical damage and was packaged very good. I had not physically seen this generator before purchase and was pleased with how well it was built and features after unpacking. I have not put it into use yet and is why I only rated it 4 stars. After I use it, I will update review if I encounter problems

Nice unit, but only metric units

The generator was exactly what I expected, and the quality, fit and finish are good. Started right up with no issues. My only *minor* complaint is that on the digital display, fuel remaining is listed in liters (of which I sadly have no real reference, since everything in the US is gallons). This isn't a big deal, but I thought other buyers may like to know this.
