Great buy for the money

We needed a generator with a 2200 watt run time for our RV, this generator was perfect. I filled the oil, added some gas and to my amazement it started on the first pull. The other thing I love is how quiet it is, I knew it was quiet but couldn't believe how quiet until I got mine. This is a GREAT buy.

Camper power

Unit is new. It was in perfect condition and all accessories included, even the break in oil. Started a little hard first time, but easy since. I was looking for dual fuel, light weight, inverter, and 30amp plug for a camper. It runs everything on the camper including the A/C. Have only run for about an hour, but it seems good to me.

Much Better than I expected!

I got this for the dual fuel feature and it's perfect for my 30 amp RV. I can run my 15,000 max air conditioner with with the 1700 available watts on propane, (with the soft start I installed previously). Well worth the money! Now I have to sell my VERY heavy - BIGGER, open frame LOUD Champion.

Good!

Went glamping once with it. Handled roll about a/c, and needed it for power tool when the trailer broke down:) Have not run on gas yet. Propane takes 4+ pulls but starts always. Seems normal. Put a magnetic dip stick on. Would highly recommend for brake in.

Innovative Engineering and High Performance

The iGen2550DFc is quite possibly the perfect combination of innovative engineering and high performance in an inverter generator. The fact that it's many features are packaged in such a compact form factor is really impressive. We use this to power lighting and accessories in a marine application. But the flexibility of dual fuel source (gasoline and propane) pretty much guarantees the unit can handle just about any situation.

Great Purchase

Wow, what a nice little generator! I originally wanted to buy the champion, but glad I didn't. I followed the directions to start it. It was a super easy and started on the 3rd pull using propane. I am so surprised with how quiet this thing is . The led light was a great touch making it easier to see when plugging things in it in the dark. Hope it lasts a long time!

Compact Quiet Generator

Compact, well made unit that came with all the accessories I needed. Included were 10W30 oil for unit, funnel, spark plug wrench, and complete instructions. Nice to have little extras, like a hose on the float bowl to drain gas and keep it off unit. VERY well packed for shipping. Runs very quiet and has ECONOMY setting to minimize gas use while operating. I would recommend this unit.

Run great, quiet, and appears to be well made

The iGen 2500 started right up. It was surprisingly easy and smooth to pull the cord. I did a one hour test run with a full size side by side refrigerator, one lamp, one box fan, a charging iPad, and a Mac all at the same time. I never saw it resister above 25% or so and all went well. Ran nice and quiet. In some cases the refrigerator could create a major but very brief surge in watts (maybe 1,800 at the most) that might require powering up and stabilizing it before connecting the rest. I don't think it would be a problem once the refrigerator is cooled down. This is what we ran with a borrowed generator during Irma and it helped a lot, no lost food and reasonable comfort sleeping. The only problem is the fuel gauge does not work but I fully expect Westinghouse to make that right. I also plan to use it for some camping.

Great documentation, easy to use machine

I always look for good, clear, concise documentation for power equipment, and this inverter came with very good manuals. The machine is easy to use, the break-in procedures were thorough, and I am very happy. The access cover is difficult to get the first time: some things are not obvious. The screw and control knob fell of during first use.

Nice Generator

I bought two of these for use when camping with my 40ft Fifth Wheel. I am very happy with how quiet they are and the ease for storage. They are light weight and easy to carry. Looking forward to using these on the road. When running them, I don't even hear them inside the camper.
