5 out of 5 stars review

Easy start! Tested & performed per specifications

Easy start with one pull! Checked voltage and frequency output with and without load using Fluke 117 True RMS Multimeter. Voltage and frequency as published. Tested output with a 250 Watt resistive load. Monitored output load, voltage and frequency with Kill A Watt P3. Voltage, current and wattage were stable.

Running two in parallel

My travel trailer has a 15,000 BTU air conditioner and I needed more than one small generator to start and run that unit. Two Westinghouse iGen2200 inverter generators will run in parallel and produce more than enough power to take care of the air conditioner as well as some other smaller loads on the camper. I have two of these iGen2200 generators now and have tested them running in parallel and they operate very well for my needs. And, as a bonus, they don't cost as much as some other brands.

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.

Nice little generator

I bought this because I wanted a good small generator. Westinghouse claims this is a pure wave inverter generator. So I tested it. I placed this generator on my flat bed trailer, then I bought out oscilloscope. I was impressed with what my oscilloscope showed. This is a very good generator.

Easy Start

To be fair, I have only had this for a couple of weeks so I can not give an in-depth review. However, this inverter generator was easy to set up out of the box and start-up oil was provided. It has been used a couple of times, with varying loads. So far so good. The best part was the price, which was significantly lower than competing models. It's very possible that I will change this to 5 stars after more frequent and longer use.

AS ADVERTISED

My wife and I were looking for an affordable, efficient way to power our RV at locations that do not offer electrical hook ups. We searched several other products and found this one to every bit as powerful, more efficient, and so much quieter than the other models we looked at buying. Westinghouse seems to have the best product at the best price.

Awesome generator

Received my generator, added oil, filled it up with fuel, and it started on the first pull. I ran it with a roll around air condition unit and it ran 5 continuous hours without any hesitation. I will be purchasing another to put them in parallel. I am extremely impressed. Thank you Westinghouse for an excellent product.

Impressive amount of thought but into product

I've only had it for a few days but I'm impressed by the amount of thought that went into the product design and documentation. These days you're more likely to get an online link than a physical manual, and then the "manual" is something hastily thrown together by someone less than fluent in English. Westinghouse, in contrast, put a lot of effort into an actual physical manual. The diagrams and instructions are very easy to follow. It's clear they put a lot of thought into making the product as easy to use out of the box as possible. Not only did it come with a bottle of oil, but there's a funnel and a screwdriver for accessing the engine compartment. You could reasonably assume the purchaser of a portable generator had a Phillips head screwdriver, but in the event one wasn't handy they included one in the kit. I'm impressed too by the attention to little details. Like engine compartment screws that cant fall on the ground and get lost. Like an oil cap molded with a twist to make it easier to turn. I added oil and gas, switched the dial to choke, and it started up after a couple of pulls. Could not be easier. If I worked at Westinghouse (I don't), I would be proud to be associated with this product. If this is representative of the work Westinghouse does, I will be looking for their brand on products in the future.

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

Just perfect

This is the second generator I purchase of the same brand and it has been the best investments I made. Also have the WGen9500and love them. They won't disappoint trust me. Great products. In time of an emergency you need something reliable and this brand is it and for the price you get more then what you asked for years to come.
