Great tailgating generator

Bought this unit for tailgating and couldn't be more pleased(Go Vols)! Took 12 pulls to start initially, starts on the first pull ever since. Pleased with how quite it is. My friends who own a Yamaha and a Honda have been very impressed with this unit.

Fuel Level Indicator

New out of box. Fuel level indicator does not work properly. Only shows one indicator light, fuel tank was filled to about 3/4 full. Then filled to the red ring.Still only shows one fuel level indicator light. Hooked up heat lamp to generator and was running fine. Control Panel missing 2 bottom screws. 3 Stars because new unit was not 100%.

Runs like fine Swiss watch

The Igen 2500 Arrived in perfect condition. Added the supplied oil and and a small amount of ethanol free gas, and it started on the second pull and ran like a fine Swiss watch. I can carry this inverter generator easily with one hand and wow, it's quiet and smooth and uses very little fuel. It's a winner.

Quiet

Perfect for our needs. It is lightweight, easy to operate, quiet, and very powerful. We use it for camping, so portability is very important. The displays on the generator make it easy to understand how much energy you're using, how much fuel you have left, etc...

So far so good... Did have to return first one

Works great and is actually pretty quiet. When under a full load it gets loud but hey.. It's a generator lol the first one I received the cord got stuck out and would not go in after the 2nd pull but they sent me a replacement instantly so great customer service!

Quiet and easy to start. I'd recommend this to anyone

First one we've owned. Bought it because we were hit by two hurricanes last year. Researched most generators in its class and believe this is the best pick for my needs. Instructions are very clear; dashboard easy to understand; started on the first pull. And, my wife was skeptical until she heard how quiet it is and what a small footprint for its power.

Great product at an awesome price

Great product at an awesome price. It runs well and is lightweight with low noise level. I would have given it a 5 but when I called customer service I received a voice message to tell me they were out of the office.[[ASIN:B01MTGJGCN Westinghouse iGen2500 Portable Inverter Generator - 2200 Rated Watts & 2500 Peak Watts - Gas Powered

First time generator user - super easy to setup and start

I have never used a generator before. I wanted the family to be prepared for any power outages during hurricane season or the typical winter ice storm in NC. The iGen 2500 was super easy to set up, came with its own oil and funnel, I just needed to add gas. It started right up without any issues. I bought the iGen 2500 because I wanted to be able to easily - at a glance - know how much fuel I had remaining. The digital display of time remaining, fuel remaining, and power usage are AWESOME. Why doesn't every generator come with that feature - thanks Westinghouse!

Started on the 1st pull

Just got the Igen2500. I filled the oil & gas and the unit started on the 1st pull. I have only "played around" with a couple of electrical items (trouble light, 1500W electric heater, etc.). I was impressed with the quiet running even with the 1500w heater running on high.

So Far so Good

I bought the generator to use with my RV camper and it arrived just in time for a March 2 Nor'easter in PA where I lost house power for 2 days. After adding oil and gas, it started on first pull. It is quiet at 25% load or less but much more noticeable above that. I have no previous experience with other inverter generators to compare noise levels though. I ran it 20 hours and changed oil. Oil was moderately dirty, nothing I took exception to. Added Mobil 1 oil and ran another 8 hours with no issue. So far I'm happy with my purchase.
