Powers everything in my camper!

Just tested the igen2500 on my 23 ft camper, runs the 13,500 a/c unit on low at 50% power and on high at 75% power. Will run the refrigerator and a/c at the same time with the tv and some lights on. I did try to run a 1hp air compressor with it just to see if it would... ran for a fews seconds then went into overload. Very silent when idling with 0-25% load, gets a bit louder as load increases more than 50%. Very portable and easy to carry around, 3 year warranty cant go wrong with this gen. I would buy again.

Perfect for our need

We were looking for an inverter generator that we can use for our trailer. Most of the products available are too heavy to lift in an out of our truck to take with us on trips. We purchased two iGen2550c Westinghouse due to get the capacity we needed to run AC and other load in our trailer. Each one is less than 50 lbs. so I can move them. Noise level is pretty quiet for a generator. Start-up was super easy. Perfect for our need!

Excellent for Camping Trailer use

I have a small 30A travel trailer that can run just fine on 20A, as long as you don't turn it all on at once. This generator provides up to 18.3A (according to documentation) and worked perfectly to run 5000 BTU air conditioner and 2.7'cu fridge and lights, with only 25% load showing on the display. Unsure of exact dB level (claim is 53dB with no load) but very quiet. Simple operation and excellent documentation included (too rare these days).

Excellent for Basic Home Backup

I bought this a month ago in preparation for this years hurricane season. Last year I was without power for 1 week and did not want to go through that again. I tested it out on everything I need including portable AC, Refrigerator and small electronics. Nice and quiet with low fuel usage on gasoline.

Runs only for a few seconds

Brand new unit right out of the box, built 11/24. The box and unit looks clean and in good condition. Set it all up per the manual. The unit starts, adjust choke, engine sounds healthy, says it's providing power, then within a few seconds (no load) it shuts down. I have only tried running off of propane since that is the only way I intend to use it. Checked the air filter, oil level, the carb drain, the fuel and air connections all look solid, spark plug is fine just a bit under the .8mm gap. The propane regulator seems to be working as far as I can tell. This model has thousands of good reviews online, so probably just a defect. Will be going through the warranty process.

Easy to set up and very quiet!

I bought the igen 2500 to use for dry camping in my rv. Got it out of the box and set it up in minutes. First time took 3 or 4 pulls to start, but starts 1st or 2nd pull afterwards. Runs the microwave in my rv with ease. Unit is very quiet---my daughter and I stood by the unit as it was running and had a normal conversation. Very impressed thus far.

Powerful,efficient and easy to start.Highly Recommended!

I test run my iGen 2500 and it started right up with no issues at all.It was super quiet and very effective.The product came with almost all the things you needed to start it up.The only missing thing was the gas which i know was for safety reasons.It was super easy to set up and operate.The instructions in the manual were pretty easy to follow..it's very economical as far fuel efficiency is concerned.It's the best generator out there in its division and I highly recommend it to everybody.

Relatively light weight; very fuel efficient

We bought this to run a pump to pump water out of a flooded basement. We were able to hook up 2 pumps at a time so it really made the process much quicker. We will be using it to provide light to do the clean-up process in the days to come. Our one complaint was trying to find the serial number to put on the registration form. We found the number when we read it on the box the inverter came in. The number was on the inverter, but as the qpc code, not mentioned as serial number.

RV Plug and enough for my AC

I like the dual fuel, our intent is to always use propane, but I like the option for both. We originally looked at the 2800 but it doesn't have the 30A plug. This one saves us from bring more parts and allows us to run the AC (with most other services in the RV off). It's also 60lbs lighter than our old generator. I would recommend.
