Quite and easy to operate

Bought this generator to use when camping. We went through set up and break in process. Very easy set up and operation. Hooked to RV and it did what we bought it for right away. So far this duel fuel generator is working just fine. Liked the layout of owner and parts manual. Will do another review after we have tested it after a longer period of time.

Easy to set up

The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I put in the included oil and put about a quart of gas into the tank. The generator started on the fourth pull and settled down into a smooth rhythm within a minute or so, after adjusting the on/choke knob. For the initial test run, I didn't run anything with high amps and only connected a large floor fan, which ran perfectly. The generator ran for over two and a half hours on the quart of gas, and I let it run down completely to avoid any residue which might affect later starts. I measured the decibel volume between 44 dB to 58 dB, measuring from 25 feet away to an inch or two away, and in both eco mode and regular run mode. The generator is very quiet and can only be heard faintly in the house on the side it was located, but it couldn't be heard at all in the bedrooms or upstairs. The information display is easy to read. My only criticism is that the serial number could be placed in a more accessible location, which has nothing to do with the performance.

iGen2550DFc

Unpacked, followed pre-start instruction, and it started right up. I'm giving it a 3 star rating since I just received it and haven't used it enough to validate it long term quality. Because most seller insist to have a rating immediately to receive their free item, (in this case a cover), here it is. If it does or doesn't craps out after a year, I'll come back and adjust my rating.

Nice Generator

I bought this a month ago and it is a decent unit that is portable, runs pretty quiet and decent fuel economy. Perfect for the back up, and small portable power unit I was looking for. Happy that I went with Westinghouse. I have confidence in the brand

Lifesaver in Blackout

Purchased this last week due to an emergency power outage in our area. This was a lifesaver during that time, as it allowed us to run an air conditioner, some fans and my husband CPAP at the same time. Did not have to fill two frequently and was super easy to use throughout the process.

Little Blue Powerhouse

I really like this generator,easy to transport, starts easy and very quiet. I had an older coleman generator 2250 watts and it struggled with a circular saw and running a light. I ran a water well pump several lights and a circular saw and this iGen 2500 had no problems what so ever running these all at the same time. Great product !

Super quiet quality generator!

This unit is a must have for tailgating and weekend camping trips, super quiet and efficient turns camping into glamping! Small enough to tuck into the back of our 2 door wrangler with camping gear and a cooler for weekend fishing trips in the keys! Hopefully we won't have to use it for a hurricane but if so we know the power and reliability is there!

Paralleling works great

After firing up both iGen2500's in parallel, I Plugged in two 1500 watt heaters. Efficiency Mode switch's on. Both gens slightly rev'd up together with both gen's showing only 50% load. Only one small complaint, the threads on plastic Gas Cap were too tight on one of the generators. I think a little quality control was missed here. The cap should free spin all the way down till the last quarter turn then click tighten. This cap has too much friction from start to tight.

Impressive features and design.

I am a retired electrician and have been around generators my entire career. I am quite pleased with the design features of the unit - down to the little things like oil and fuel catches. I am confident that the quality and durability will be consistent with the great functional design.
