Amazing features

I bought this a couple of weeks ago and it has performed better than expected. I purchased it based off a lot of great reviews with some hesitation but I will say that I am happy with my purchase so far. I really liked how easy it started the first time I used it and how quiet of a run cycle it produced.

Seems good so far

I bought this because my power company shut off my circuit due to expected high winds. They then said they were going to de-energize it again for critical maintenance, but postponed the date (no word yet on the new date), but now I'm ready. I had to borrow a generator during the shut off.

Great Generator

I purchased this generator at the end of December 2021. We were expecting to have such weird weather in January. I wanted to make sure I was covered. Luckily I didn't have to use it but feel very confident it will definitely serve it's purpose should the time around. Had my handy man take a look at it and he was even impressed.

Great Convenient Generator

We purchased this just three days before the two tornadoes struck Rockford, Illinois. It came in the day after our power went out and really saved us hundreds of dollars. We knew it was coming so we did not open our freezer or refrigerator. As soon as it came we unboxed it, read the directions, and added the oil and gas. It took only two pulls and it was up and running. Pretty much plug and play. So happy we made this purchase. Pretty quiet and gave our freezer and refrigerator the juice and after a period of three or four hours, the two of them attained the proper temperatures and the generator had a much less load. Performed beautifully. Would purchase again. Sorry we didn't purchase two so we could have given my son one.

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!

Quiet portable Generator

After doing some research on YouTube, I choose the iGen2200. After putting in the oil and fuel it started with just one pull. On Eco mode you can have a normal conversation right next to the generator. It suits my purpose as an emergency generator and to run small appliances when I need it too.

Very Quiet.......

I bought this in early November. I ran it this weekend, running several small items, including a toaster, coffee pot, and a portable light. I was very pleased at how quiet it ran. I really enjoyed how easy it started also. I am looking forward to using this generator for camping. I feel this is a very good purchase.

Camping use and for Power outage backup

It's been good in testing so far. I have used it to see how it would handle power outage backing up the refrigerator, and it seems to work well. Also fairly quiet and easy to start. I hope I don't have to use it too often. Was fairly straightforward to start up and easy. Haven't had a chance to use it for camping trips yet. It's a little heavy to be carrying any large distance so I assume will only use for some of the trips where we are driving near to the campsite.

Nice Lil' Generator

Got this Lil' Gem home, opened her up, and within minutes read all the included info and had this thing running on the 2nd pull. Very quiet...much quieter than I expected and for half the price of the "Red Ones" that shall remain nameless. One of the best purchases I have ever made! When I lose power this thing will power my fridge, fans, tv, and others while just sipping the gas. Great job Westinghouse!

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!!!
