Easy setup

I bought this bout 3 weeks ago but just set it up for emergency use, operating power tools, etc. was really easy setup and owners manual is well written and easy to understand. I ran it for about an hour and tested it with different tools and it did very well. Very quiet, easy to start, relatively light and easy to carry and I think we will have a long and happy relationship. Forgot to mention that it was purchased at a great price!

Very quiet operation

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.

Nice and quiet

I just received this Gen. Set up was very easy and straight forward. I added oil, gas and opened the vent. It fired right up. I let it warm up, tried efficiency mode and the RPM's dropped to a low idle. I plugged in a circular saw and gave it a shot. Its working very well so far. A nice little unit.

So far so good...

Only owned for a short time but it was exactly what I was looking for. I needed portability over 7500 watts (don't need to power my house with it but just a few things). Easy to setup, easy to use, and while not "light" it is light enough to pick up and move around with one person

Great little generator

I need a generator that will run the air conditioner on my travel trailer and other electronic equipment and any single unit is too large and heavy for this person in his 70's to handle but this unit running in parallel works well and I can still handle the 50 pounds in two separate units. I was also quite pleased that after reading the user manual and putting in the oil and fuel the generator started on the first pull.

VERY IMPRESSIVE

Bought on 8/1/20. Impressive right out of the box. Heavy with a solid feel. Unit well packed. Put in oil, gas, let set for couple minutes so carb can fill with fuel. Literally started on first pull. Ran quieter than I thought it would be. With no load and on ECO, didn't seem to run much above idle. I ran in my shop wide open, still was not that loud to me. Handled load with ECO and normal with no problem. Turned off twice, still started with one pull both times. For the price which I got it for, cannot be beat.

Great for backup power

Works great when running home oxygen concentrator during power outage. The concentrator pulls around 275 watts when running. The generator will not start the RV AC unit but I already had determined it was to small for the operation and was not surprised.

Great product, okay price

I have only used the product once so far but it was very easy to fill with oil and gas and seems to be running smoothly. I used it to run a jigsaw for about 20 minutes just to test it and had no issues. It did take about 5-6 pulls to start it up, which was slightly disappointing and the main reason I deducted a star. I would also like to see a digital display added to this model with remaining fuel/runtime information and current load but I wasn't expecting it and this works as advertised.

Light, easy to carry, easy to maintain

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.

Easy to use and a lot of power.

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.
