Just received igen2500. Added oil and gas. Good I looked in gas tank as there were two pieces of gray foam that I took out. Started on 3rd pull. Ran a little rough for about two minutes, then settled down. Seems to run beautiful now. Was probably a little cold from setting outside. I think I'll enjoy this generater for my use.

Very simple to get going. Pulled it out of the box, added oil using the provided threaded funnel, added some gas, pulled about 5 times, and off it went. This is my first experience with an inverter generator, and I was impressed with how quiet it was. I won't be using for a while, so I wanted to empty the gas, and it sure ran a long time on the little trickle I had given it. Impressed so far.

Unit was well packed; instructions were clear. I added the oil (using the provided filler tube), then added 87 octane gasoline with fuel stabilizer. Unit started on fourth pull and ran smoothly. We tend to use it chiefly for emergency backup. So far, quite pleased.

Using this generator most for camping while off the grid. It works great for our needs and provides enough power to run all our devices. It is easy on fuel and runs fairly quiet. I would recommend this unit for camping or any other portable power needs.

I'm very pleased with how quiet the iGen2200 is. And it will provide the power I need to run my camper air conditioner and other basic equipment in the camper since I will be running it in parallel with another iGen2200. It also started on the very first pull. Thanks.

I just got this from my son. It was still in the unopened box. We lost our power a day later. I removed it from the box via by flashlight. Added the oil and gas. Fired up after a couple of pulls and it's been running providing power to my wood stove and coffee maker and one light. Wife and I are very pleased.

We bought this to run our trailer while camping. I test ran it using a 750W and 1500W heater. From eco mode it cranked up and ran them like a champ. Really looking forward to having this for camping. At load from 20 feet it was about 75dbs. Easy enough to talk over. At half load at 20ft it was in the 60's. I'll be testing the run time while camping, I'm sure it will meet my needs.

Owned 3 days now. Ran 2 tanks of gas through it and tested extensively. Started on very first pull, easy to start. A few parts fell off, the retainer for the screw that holds on the maintenance panel and the stop-run-choke knob fell off. The cover for one of the switches was loose. Not sure what confidence level I should have in the assembly of the unit. As a mechanical engineer ,it looks well designed, mostly, to me. The included spark plug wrench was cheaply manufactured and I had to spend 10 minutes with a dremel tool cleaning it up to get it to work. It performed well for the 2 tanks I ran through. The idle smoothness wasn't stellar, but it was fine. Stellar is a lot to ask for.

After reading the Consumer Report favorable review on the Westinghouse iGen2000 generator -It looks like the write up was correct. This unit is 1/2 the price of the Honda Generator and the quality, fit and finish is in the same league. We will have to see if it stands up to the test of time. Started up on the first pull. Yes! really quite. I need this because of medical reasons for a family member who is taking a trip this summer. Really hoping reliability is there. So far, really happy with my purchase. Some small nit pick items- Spark plugs listed in the manual seem to be European plugs. Westinghouse could simply list the USA equivalents. Could not find out the replacement foam filter on the Westinghouse site.

Caveat: I have not run this unit yet. I received this recently and I am impressed by the clean design and portability of the unit. It's intended use is for running a sump pump during power outages, so I do not expect it to be used often. If it works well I that circumstance, I will upgrade to 5 stars.
