Power when needed, easy to use, small, quiet

Purchased this generator with hopes not to need it. Just wanted to have something in case our power failed and needed to maintain the freezer for frozen breastmilk. (While running other electrical whatnot, too, of course.) Believe it or not, about 48 hours after the unit arrived, we lost power..!! Meanwhile, the unit works easily, it's not terribly loud, and it provides the power it's supposed to,

Easy and quick

I wanted a small but powerful generator for power outage emergencies. The IGEN 2200 was so easy to set up and start that my wife can use it when necessary. Not exactly looking forward to a time when I really need it, but I'm sure it will fit the bill. Pros: fairly lightweight, east to start, super simple to add oil and fuel. Cons: none yet

Glad I upgraded.

I have an old style 3500W generator... very loud, and heavy to move around. Needed something better, and this iGen2200 was perfect. After adding the oil, it was easy to start. Had it running to break it in with very little gas, it ran for almost an hour! Not very loud, I will be able to run it at night without the neighbors hearing it. Now it gets stored for its inevitable use.

Going camping

I bought 2 of these for boondocking and so far they are great. They started right up after filling them with oil and have been running great since. The only complaint I have is that the oil filer funnel broke on one when I filled the motor with oil.

Much Lighter Than Expected!

Used this to run a table saw and some lights at a remote location. Had to be carried in and was very pleased at the weight and noise level. Weighs about what a 5 gallon bucket of water weighs. Very easy to talk standing near it, Not disruptive at all.

Started first pull right out of the box.

It's quieter and lighter than I expected. It runs the a/c, mini fridge and microwave in my short bus that I use to travel to art and craft shows. The only negative I have is that an hour meter would have been nice to keep up maintenance. I ordered it on a Tues, it arrived on wed and I left for a show on Fri. The air feels great!!

Manual needs updating

Purchased 2 IGen2200 for my RV trailer. This is my first generator so don't have much to compare them with but overall i'm happy with them. Under minimal load they are very quiet. I reached out to WH to track down the appropriate parallel kit for 30amp connection. WH needs to update it's manual. The manual that shipped with the generator doesn't show or include any instructions on appropriate use of parallel use.

Great for Camping

The 2200 was simple to set up - access to the oil fill was quick. I added a splash of gas and was running in less than 10 minutes from un-boxing. I use this for general use during camping with the travel trailer and for miscellaneous use when a little power is needed to run some lights, charge batteries, etc.

Great manual, simple, good genny for a beginner

Tested this genny yesterday and had it up and running in no time. This is my first generator so I'm no pro but the manual is clear, easy to ready and informative - no troubleshooting to slow things down! I especially like the 5V USB ports on the iGen model. Feel much better about hurricane season armed with this genny!

Fast and Easy

I received my iGen2200, read through the instructions and in no time at all had it running. The instructions are very easy to understand and I was impressed that it came with a bottle of oil and spark plug wrench. It took me only two pulls to get it running the first time and it was very quiet. In addition it is light enough to carry easily.
