Good generator, had problems the second year used

Ran great the first summer it was used however the first use the second year it won't run smoothly. RPM's go up and down. At the end of the first summer the gas was completely drained before storing for the winter. Drained gas again after problem was discovered and filled with new gas-no change Plan on taking it in for a service check to see what the problem is.

Nice generator for the price using to power up a c

The only problem is the spark plug was damaged and was stated in other reviews first thing I checked when opening maybe tell the engineers a little longer plug wire would help that problem the motor isolation rubbers are probably the issue as they flex back and forth during shipping

Small Generator for Home Power Outages

The iGen1500c is just what we needed to power essentials during home power outages. For example, we found we could not open our rather heavy garage door during an outage, and our cars were in the garage. The inverter includes two 20 amp outlets, other outlets to plug cell phone chargers directly to the unit, and parallel connectors. The iGen1500c is quiet, very easy to start, and the thorough instructions are easy to understand.

Amazing generator

I purchased this inverter generator about 3 weeks ago because I work from home and lose power a couple times a month. I needed a generator that was easy to use and was safe for sensitive equipment like a desktop computer, modem and 2 routers. This product worked perfectly when I had to use it. I purchased the dual fuel product because I wanted to use propane. It was so easy to start and hook up my equipment so I could continue to work. I had absolutely no issues and are so satisfied with this product annd the peace of mind it gives me. It's also very light weight and quiet. I would definitely recommend this generator!!

Quiet and powerful generator

I bought it about a month ago and took on 2 camping trip we ran the generator on propane gas and was very easy to connect and start much cleaner than gasoline. We had a 9500 before and was overkill for us. The igen 2550 is lighter quiet and perfect for our needs. We just need to install the altitude kit because it won't run right without the correct setup.

What a mistake. Should have paid attention to the negative reviews. Could not get this to run. Followed instructions completely, but right out of the box it took numerous pulls to start and once it did start it would run for only a minute or so and then shut off. Running on propane was worse. Trying to call in was futile. Returned to seller and they will ship it back. Hope I get my money back.

Great quality at a reasonable price

This iGen 2550 is perfect for my truck camper or trailer. It has the 30 amp outlet, although it's limited to 15.8 amps @120v continuous. Peak is a tad over 21 amps, (ac starting etc). This will work great for my needs. The unit is lighter than I expected, 42lbs I think, solid construction and quality components, They provide more than you will need, oil, funnel, spark plug changer. I am very happy with this generator, it's perfect for a travel trailer or any RV.

Amazing generator very capable.

I just bought this generator and I needed it for an emergency trip up to the mountains without this. I would've been lost. This was so simple to use. I was able literally to pull it out of the box. Add the oil add some fuel and on the first pull, it started I had no weird issues with it at all. It was able to power at least half the items I needed at one time I do not regret buying this. The best features that I can do parallel electrical support with it. It came with all the tools I needed and so far I have had no issues used to be a Yamaha and Honda guy, but I am now Westing house guy! I would absolutely recommend this purchase For anyone who is on the fence.

Won't run on propane

I bought the generator to run it on propane. Tried to start it for the first time and it started right up. However it only ran for 15 seconds and now won't start again. I've started a ticket with Westinghouse and I will update this review if they can fix it so that it runs the way it's supposed to propane.
