Great features

Unit arrived early and included everything they said even comes with oil !! , put oil and gas in it the second pull of the cord it started right up. I contacted customer service to double check about break in actually got someone for the United States so glad for that. So far so good only time will tell how well the unit will hold.

Good Product

I bought this product for my sister in August. We tested it with 2 small appliances and 2 phone chargers a few weeks ago, it ran relatively quiet, and worked good. We will know more about the product when we need to use during the power outage. Start was easy, as both of us are petite women, it took 1 pull to start. So far, we like it

quiet

I just recently purchased this and so far am happy with it. The only thing I have a concern about is the oil cap. For some reason you need to work at it to get it to screw in and the only reason I say that is if you are not careful you could easily cross thread it.

Quiet, lightweight, easy to operate

I purchased this generator a few weeks ago and have been using it with my travel trailer. I find it quite easy to use. My 11 year old can crank it no problem. I really like having the display to note remaining fuel, running time, etc. It is also much easier to cart around than a traditional generator.

Great Value and the great options it has. This

This is my first Digital Inverter Generator I took it out of box and followed all the instructions to get it ready to work. Put the gas in it on the first pull it started right up. I ran a electric chainsaw for four hours with no problems. I purchased it for a power outage to run some things in my house or at my daughters house. We are very pleased with this Generator and look forward for many uses that we may incur over the future.

Not so scary and complex

Purchased the iGen2500 for the "just in case" day. That day arrived 2 years later. I quickly read the start-up guide, then added the oil and gas. Hesitantly, I pulled on the cord and it started on my 2nd- 3rd pull. I turned it off, put it in my wagon and pulled it through the snow to the powerless house. I carried it up several steps and placed it on the outside porch where it easily started again. Very pleased. I avoid pull-cord tools due to my size and strength...or rather lack of size and strength! I am a 5'1'', 100 pound, senior citizen woman and found the iGen2500 not the scary and complex item I thought I was going to have to handle on an already disastrous day. Thank you.

Check your gas drain petcock!

Filled oil, put in fresh gas, fired up for a 5 min test run. Noticed some gasoline leaking from the bottom, on the concrete. Turned off, let cool. When restarting, noticed gas leaking from under fuel bowl. Found the drain petcock was loose; tightened this, restarted/ran 10 min w/no additional gas leaks or issues. It runs very quiet, and should be easy to utilize on a moments notice. Digital display is nice feature. I am glad I did this before we had a major storm/power outage.

Arrived quckly and appears in perfect condition

Arrived ahead of schedule and in great condition. All accessories that were to come with generator, were in the box. Tomorrow, I plan on put it through it's paces. I will write an update after I put it through the initial break in period. Completing this review now, they are to send me a generator cover.

The Best, the most quiet and most useful

I love this generator. It is very quiet and turns on very quickly. I use it for outdoor use around my car and home. It has two plugs and I have connected things with high watts and low watts and the generator worked without any problems. The display shows all the important info you need like gas levels and how long it could still work. Efficiency mode is also great. Its a great generator, I recommend highly.

Quality

I am so happy with this product. In the last year I have bought many different brands of generators and sold them as I discovered problems. This is is by far my favorite. It is small, fuel efficient, and it has a data screen! I am all for small inverter generators that use fuel sparingly instead of having massive units that go through fuel to quickly in a disaster.
