I just purchased and do not know of durability. Item is as described, getting the cover, for the oil fill location, was problematic without damaging the cover, otherwise a great product for the price it started, ran and powered an electrical item fine.

I bought this genset a few weeks ago because a thunderstorm knocked out our power supply in the middle of the night. I need to use a cpap machine when I sleep so I looked for a small, compact genset and Westinghouse iGen2200 had a great review so I decided to try it. The day after it was delivered, a tornado watch came and knocked out our power supply again. It gave me a reason to open the box and power it up. I was able to power my internet router, charge our phones, use an fan and most of all use my cpap machine. It's very useful during a power outage. 5 Stars for me.

Took it camping on a long weekend and it worked like a champ. The generator came with oil, which is very easy to fill. It started on the first pull after I filled it with gas. It is quiet for a generator as I watch a movie with the generator right outside of the camper, so nice compared to my old loud generator. The price can't be beat compared to the leading name brand generator. I highly recommend it.

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.

After looking at getting a generator, reading reviews and making a lot of comparisons. It seemed like a no brainer to purchase the Westinghouse IGen2200. For the cost savings over the Honda and from all indications being just as reliable and quiet I purchased it. I have not been disappoint. It runs great, generates all the power I have needed quietly and efficiently. We use it for camping, but will use it around the house as well if we need to when the power is out. This is a great small and quiet unit.

I purchased two of these for camping with my 30ft. travel trailer. I must say this little generator puts out the power. It's very light and runs for a long time, very fuel efficient. It's very quiet too! I watched some youtube videos on it because I wasn't sure it had enough beef to run my air conditioner. It certainly does! I highly recommend it.

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.

Right out of the box just added the oil that it came with and added gas, pulled it 3 times and it started right up, after first start up it only took 1 pull to start every time after that. It is very Quite and runs super smooth, and the camo version looks great. I plan to use it for camping, picnics, tailgating and emergency's. I have tested it running a mini fridge , 60 watt light fixture, fan and a skill saw all at the same time with no problem and i sure it can run a lot more. I am very happy with my purchase .

I really like this thing. Brand new, after adding oil and fuel, it took about 5 or 6 pulls and it starts up. After a minute, I move the dial from choke to run and it stabilized nicely. Then I started adding some big ticket items like coffee maker, space heater and hot plate. Took em like a champ. So far, this little thing is just the ticket!

bought two of these generators for hurricane Laura - each ran about 7 hours on a tank of gas - powered a window air conditioner, three fans and a tv - easy to start and made very little noise - ran generators concurrent for four days with no problems.
