Super Quiet

I recently purchased this generator and am very happy I did so. One of my biggest requirements was that it was quiet and it definitely exceeded my expectations. The fact that it is dual fuel and starts easily is icing on the cake. I highly recommend this generator.

2550 generator shutting down

We bought 2-2550 last year for an event/camping last year in June and the generator work just great. This year went to the same event and brought both generators. After starting up one of them it kept shutting off after 30-40 minutes. Swapped out generator same problem (using propane). Any recommendations or ideas

Easy to get set up and get started

I recently bought the Westinghouse iGen2550DFc because I moved to coastal South Carolina and wanted a reliable dual fuel generator. This unit fit my needs for wattage and best of all, its light to carry around as a portable generator. Hope I don't need to use it but I'm glad I found something portable and reasonable.

Perfect for camping

I bought this earlier this month, so we could have something small for camping trips. And this is perfect! Quiet, easy to use, light weight. Ran it for about 27hours straight, and was able to keep up with everything! Had our Alpicool fridge/cooler plugged into it and none of our food went bad. 10/10 would recommend this generator to everyone!

Easy to start and not as noisy as older one

I purchased this after a recent storm caused an extended power outage. We borrowed a gas generator that was very noisy but got us through the outage. This generator was much quieter and lighter than the previous generator. It was easy to start and the instructions were very clear for using either gasoline or propane. I powered several devices, including fans and a leaf blower and it worked just fine. I hope we don't have another extended power outage but if we do, we're now prepared.

Light and quiet

This is my 2nd Westinghouse generator/inverter. On a rare occasion it would be nice to run 2 in parallel. This one is slightly bigger than the older one, but feels lighter to me. The display is what sold me on this one. It's very helpful to know how many hours you have on the engine for scheduled maintenance!

So far, so good!

I've just completed breaking my generator in. 6.5 hours of gradually increasing loads and 5 oil changes. I have only been using propane, and intens to only use propane as long as I can. At the end of the break in period I ran my RV air conditioners independently without issue. I know they won't work simultaneously, so I didn't bother. Had no issues and the generator performed well. The included accessories are great, especially the funnel. Works well for filling and draining. It screws into the fill/drain port. If I ever lose it, I will cry. Only thing is recommend getting is a magnetic dipstick. I ordered one half way through break in period and had it installed for last two oil changes. It collected a lot of really fine particulate. Overall I am super happy so far.

Powers my RV for approximately 9 hours

I bought this generator to power my Springfield 1800 BH with a 5k btu ac side mounted unit. It powers the entire camper for 9 hours while the a/c is running and allows me to sleep through the night without having to refuel. I can really only hear the generator running as the A/C cycles off while laying in the camper. I will probably setup a system to direct the sound away from the camper but it is fairly quiet.

Quiet, easy initial setup, easy to start

I bought this a week ago and have been using it on propane. The setup was super easy. I read the manual! Filled the oil, connected the propane, flipped the switch to run, and it started on the second pull. Runs quietly, rubber feet keep it from walking, handles power tool startup and my small A/C.

Nice Backup

I bought this as an emergency backup and light boondocking for my travel trailer. It's got enough power to run the A/C and then some. Love that I don't have to carry around gas and in a pinch I can connect to a propane tank and be up and running. It's quiet enough and easy to use. Great unit.
