First generator

Been looking for generator for over a year. This generator fits the bill for me. Easy to transport. Put in oil, included, and the generator started on second pull. Tip: you need to pull on the cover to add the oil. It has three inserts that need to be pulled out after the screws are loosened.

Starts on second pull with choke-No problems

Turned on the energy saver and plugged in a 5000 BTU air conditioner on high cool and the engine doesn't even rev up. Can have a conversation right next to it without yelling. Have it for a minivan with a 10'x10' enclosed tent over the hatchback and can run air cond., lights, fan and run on economy mode for about 15 hours on a tank of gas. Excellent inverter! You can twice as much for a Honda but why? Bought the extended warrenty. Love it!!!

Great product

Bought in August delivered in Sept due to backorders. So far we have been happy with the generator. My husband has run it for almost 3 hours so far and changed the oil as recommended due to the sediment from construction. He was extremely impressed with the lack of sediment. We are excited to take it camping and try it out. Well he did try it out with my hairdryer, curling iron and a small fan. It all worked great!

Better than expected

When I purchased the iGen2200 I expected it to a good quality unit. When I first used the unit when camping with friends, they had a high priced red generator. When I brought mine out they started to give me a bad time until I started the unit & they both stated it was quieter than the ones they had. After we ran for some time, they were once again amazed that mine ran much longer than the big bad red machine. I am extremely happy with this unit & intend on buying a second very soon.

Great portable generator

Bought this small generator to use when my larger generator is not required. So far very happy. It came with engine oil, screwdriver (to remove side panel to get to oil fill spout) and spark plug tool. Filled generator with oil and non-ethanol gas and it started in a couple of pulls. It is very quiet and I should get many years of service from this unit. So far very pleased.

Great little portable Generator

Just purchased and performing break-in. Generator produces the advertised output. Easy start. Generator is a little noisier than I expected but not bad. At lower loads it is quieter. Just needed a small portable unit to take to events and tailgates, with an extension cord and putting on the other side of the vehicle the noise is not bad. All in all a good little unit.

Does what it is supposed to do!

I really like this thing. Brand new, after adding oil and fuel, it took about 5 or 6 pulls and it starts up. After a minute, I move the dial from choke to run and it stabilized nicely. Then I started adding some big ticket items like coffee maker, space heater and hot plate. Took em like a champ. So far, this little thing is just the ticket!

Started on first pull.

I will be using this to power my camper and to power an electric grass trimmer. I just received this generator. I took it out of the box put in oil and filled the gas tank. Gave one pull of the rope and it started! Without being under load, it runs smoothe and quiet.

#2

Needed another one to run my camper ac. Received it today, added oil and some gas, turned on and let sit for a minute or two, turned to choke, ONE PULL and STARTED!!! Let it run a minute or two, shut off, put things away, turned to on, one pull and started again. Waiting for a parallel chord now so I can hook up and run the camper ac.

What I had hoped for

I was concerned that I would not be able to run my fridge with the 2200 igen but no problem plus I can run other devices at same time. Quieter than any other generator Ive had and starts easily. Still wish It had an electric start. Only reason I didnt give it 5 starts is the plastic cover and screws seem cheap and I wonder how long it is going to last
