The generator runs very quiet and is easy to start. I would give five stars but I had a moment where it quit and would not start again for two days. I guess it got out of sequence or something. It happened to me during a storm outage, so it was pretty disappointing.

This started great but the red OVERLOAD light will not turn off and it won't power anything. But it runs great, it just doesn't work!! This is brand new out of the box and it's useless without turning the light to green "READY INDICATOR." I'm giving it 1 star for starting and running. Now I have to drain it to return it. This item is worthless. Get a different generator from another company.

This generator was a breeze to setup, and started first pull. I tested the eco mode with a 1500v draw heat gun, and it handled it no problem. I added an hour meter to assist with maintenance intervals, and am confident I'll get great use out of it with the easy maintenance and the 3yr mfr warranty. Best in class for size/value for an inverter.

Used during a power outage and hooked it up to a heater that used power consumption of : high 1500w, low 750w and the overload button came on and cut off power to the heater. We restarted it and ran our home refrigerator on it without difficulty. Had to use another generator that we have for a back up to run the heater ( portable quartz electric heater). The iGen2200 didn't handle it. It ran the refrigerator fine so we give 4 stars.

This machine is quiet & efficient, but I have bought too much stuff, made in China, that was absolute garbage, since they have a tendency to push stuff out the door, regardless of its quality, merely to get it out there, so it only gets 4 stars. Actually, it appears to be a clone of the Honda I just got rid of, since they look like kissing cousins, and it cost 1/2 the price I paid for the Honda, several years ago, which is a definite plus.

Just received and have run through the start-up and break in period. Plan to take on a elk hunting trip in Montana. Ran it through the breaking period here in Georgia at 1000ft elevation have purchased and waiting on delivery of a high altitude from Westinghouse. Just ran it connected to a large fan in my shop during the break-in period occasionally turning the fan on and off and running at different speeds. It did have an initial whine in the generator but believe by breaking it in correctly the whining is a thing of the past as it no longer is apparent. Likes: - Compact package, - low noise, - ease of starting, - overall design and appearance. Simple and straight forward is a good thing. Yet to be determined: Longevity, ruggedness, performance in colder climate at high elevations. Looking forward to testing it in Montana and using on other fishing, hunting and camping expeditions. Thus far this looks like a real value item compared to others for the money spent.

Powerful and quiet Great value for money. I powered my fridge, lights, computer, TV and ps4. 1-gallon lasted from 5:45pm to about 5:15am. It's started to sputter like gas was about to finish. I only regret not getting the Igen2500 just for extra power I guess

We bought this on the 1 Nov 2022 and took ir to Puerto Rico. We have use it already here and it is very easy to start and have enought power to run the small fridge, tv and lights that we were very conftable while the power was off. Thanks for a very well done equipment.

Starts easily. Westinghouse is a trusted brand. Runs quietly for such a powerful generator. Instructions and maintenance are very clearly stated in the owner's manual. Love this generator. I will be using it to provide heat this winter (always run it outside) in case of power outage and next summer to plug in my window air conditioner.

Bought this as an emergency back up for a fridge or portable a/c unit. The break-in as suggested on-line is quite different from what the manual states. Did 2 oil changes at 20-30 min intervals adding a load after the first. Second one came out pretty clean. Filled for the third time and ran a few min before shutting down and putting away. I'll keep a gallon of the engineered gas in there as it is supposed to last up to two years. I'll do another oil change after I actually use it. First impression is it's relatively quiet, especially on eco mode, and compact enough to store just about anywhere. Fires right up. So easy I'm sure, if needed, I could talk my wife through start up too…and that's saying a lot!
