Great features and very quiet

So far, I'm very impressed with the noise level and digital data center. It starts easy and I like the portability. The spark plug access cover seems a tad loose, but with use I expect it to snug right up. Overall, I'm very pleased and look forward to many years of use.

Great so far

Generator came a couple days ago. I added the oil and gas, started on the second pull. I used my rv for the break in period. Five hours later I shut it off. I would like to tell you more but that's all I ran it so far, but those 5 hours it ran great.

Completely Satisfied

I bought this a week ago and have never owned a generator/inverter. It was so easy to use out of the box. After filling with engine oil and gasoline, it started on the first pull. It is so quiet! I am back and forth from my home and farm to operate equipment: electrical saws, air compressors, heaters, cooking stoves, etc... I even plan to take this thing to the softball fields for some nice hot lunches. If you haven't committed to a product yet, don't overlook this one!

Just the right amount of power for heat

I bought this gen for winter heat in case of power failure. It can power my furnace and outdoor wood boiler with 2 circulator pumps and use very little fuel. My large gen uses about 8 gallons for 13 hr run time. The iGen2500 will run for 40 hrs or more with both heat sources on the same amount of fuel. If I only run the wood boiler it will keep the pumps running for 10 hrs on 1 gallon of fuel! That's 80 hours on what my large gen would use, AMAZING! The iGen2500 is quieter than I expected also. I think it's a great product!!!

Just purchased, will update review after some use

I just purchased this generator, so don't have any experience to fully review as yet. It seems it will fit the bill, although a bit pricey for a small portable unit. Started up on second pull. Seemed to run smooth and fairly quite. Hoping it will last.Will update this review once I have had some use with the unit.

Tremendous product for the price

I purchased the IGEN 2500 because I was GC of my own house build and needed power on the site until the power company brought in my power cable. This unit was amazing. It never failed to impress. I plan on buying another one so I can parallel them in the event of a power outage.

great portable generator

I recently purchased the iGEN2500 for emergency use and ease of portability. it arrived days earlier than projected in perfect condition. Start up instructions were clear and simple...started easily with the very first pull after installing the supplied oil and my gasoline. Very smooth running and quiet. So far I have run shop lights, work lights, and circular saw at the same time...absolutely no problem. Very pleased.

Light, portable, easy to store

Bought this after having a Yamaha 3000 which was too heavy to load into my truck on my own. Myself and friends are amazed how quiet it was out camping, handled my needs for my trailer and was able to even start my a/c unit. I have recommended this little generator to whoever I've talked to about wanting one. It's affordable and it's packed with some good features, anyone looking for a generator it should be on their list to check out. Super happy Westinghouse, Thank you!

Compact, Quiet Generator at a Good Value

I bought this a couple weeks ago for the hurricane season. As advertised, it is very quiet (for a generator), particularly when running at low load in efficiency mode. Simple to operate and set up. I also like that it can be moved around easily with the carry handle--it's not too heavy. If you don't need a huge amount of power, this seems like a good option.

Perfect for my hotshot trucking setup

I needed a quiet generator to mount in my pickup to power a portable AC for when I am parked overnight at the truck stops. This generator is perfect. Its quiet yet powerful enough to handle the task. For any hotshot trucking operators out there I highly recommend this unit.
