Great design and solid material!

Upon unboxing I am rather impressed with the quality of packaging, which most of the time reflects the quality of product inside. I'm also rather impressed with the layout/design of the unit and the rigidity of the material used on it. Not only is it simply laid out and easy to understand, it is also very well arranged and has all the connecting features that anyone would need to plug in the devices that this unit can handle. The user manual is also straight to the point and easy to read and understand. I am currently waiting to test it out as I have it charging for the first time out of box plugged into an AC home outlet and can't wait to see how it performs.

Brand New Never Used Now a Dud

Bought this because we do craft shows and it was easier than paying for an electrical hookup. Charged it up the first night, haven't needed to use it since I bought it 2 months ago.It was also sealed in a water tight container. Went to double check on the unit to see if it still had a charge, and the unit had no charge. Plugged it in to charge it up, the unit would say it's charged, then after I remove the plug, got no power from the unit. Plugged it back in again, and battery meter showed the battery was dead. I repeated the process again to charge the unit, and again the battery would be dead in less than 30 seconds. It was a mistake to buy from Westinghouse

Pretty in Blue

I put it through its paces for 3 days. Powers up a windmachine fan, portable radio and 32 inch TV and charges my cell and IPAD ! I bought the 300s as I do not require much in an emergency ( 296 Wh, 300 Running Watts, and 600 Peak Watts ) but WOW ! It will power my radio or tv for days and keep my cell phone charged ! Very happy with this power station, it will be nice to have in the next power outage.

Unreliable - DO NOT BUY

I own the iGen600s and iGen200s. The 200 charges my laptop fully twice. I purchased the 600 for emergency medical device power. The box was damaged when I received the package. I opened and charged. I wanted to test the 600, so I charged my laptop once, and cellphone twice. Two days later, I attempted to charge my laptop again and the unit died after charging the laptop to 40%, well short of the unit's advertised capability. I am very disappointed. Many recent reviewers have posted after I purchased and had poor experiences too.

good portable power station

got this unit for an extended stay camping in Yellowstone Nat'l Park. I charged it up, and started testing it at home before I left. Unit has 5 bars for the battery completely charged. I use this for my CPAP and the first 2 nights, it worked fine and the battery bars didn't move. After the third night, it was down 2 bars. After the fourth night it went down one more bar to 2 bars. On the next night, with 2 bars remaining, I went to sleep for about 2 1/2 hours and the unit was DEAD. So now I know it'll last me 4 nights using it for JUST my CPAP, and not needing to recharge it.

Better than any noisy generator

This 1000s unit is the real deal. I didn't expect it to perform so brilliantly but it did. I was without power for 8 days in the SW Va mountains during Helene,, and I was able to run most all of my small items with ease,, I think the only thing I haven't tried yet is my refrigerator,, but it ran a PA system with accessories and then during cleanup I plugged an electric chainsaw into it and cut up two trees with plenty of power to spare. Plus it changes up quickly (in my case the whole house generator recharged it quickly),, then I can turn it off to save propane and use this nifty little device instead. This is a winner,, bravo Westinghouse!

Excellent for a small back-up

We bought this about 9 months ago. Sold our house and were living in an RV onsite as we built the new home. Since we are off grid and did not have power 24/7, we used this to power electronic devices when the generator (also WH-dual fuel 9500) was not running. Kept computers and phones charged and operating. Did what it said. Still use it around the barn when we need spot power to something, and also the build in lights in areas were outdoor lighting is not accessible (i.e. feed room in hay barn).

Powers my scope and accessories for hours

I purchased the iGen160s a couple of months ago to power my Celestron CGE1100 telescope and some accessories, including a dew heater and it has worked very well. I have been able to run the scope and heaters for hours without running out of power, which I could not do before with my Celestron PowerTank.

They do not stand behind their products

It was given to me as a gift. It sat in a box. I go to use it, and it does not work. I called, and they asked me to take photos and try charging with the car charger. I did it (btw the car has to be running), so I spent money on gas. I tell them it did not work, and then they tell me it's not covered, only the original purchase. It has never been used !! Well it was my Aunt who has since passed away. A company that does not stand behind their products as a company you should not trust.

1st one didn't last a week at camp.

Father's Day gift, for camping. Charged quickly at home, before we left for a week of Scout camp. Charged my, and 2 other Scout phones, the first 3 nights. Battery life was down to 1/4 on the power station. Tried to charge the power station on a car battery with the DC adapter. It struggled to reach 3/4 charge in 8 hrs. Used the power station again, on night 4, with limited success. Seemed to drain faster than normal this round. Tried changing the power station again, using the DC cable. Power station only reached 1/2 charge in 8 hours. Used the power station on night 5, which drained the battery to 1/4 power. After this, I no longer used the power station, until I returned home. Currently, the power station is being charged on the AC cord, with little to no success. Will not charge past 1/4 battery life.
