Great features

After reviewing several generators I bought this model that was on sale. It has several features that are usable when camping. I will primarily use it with the propane mode although it is nice to know it also uses gasoline. I was pleasantly surprised how quiet it is. In addition, this will be used in case of power failures at home. Very happy with purchase.

First impression is spectacular!

Out of the box, it is ready to go as soon as you add the necessary oil and gas. It started right up and within minutes, I had power to the camper. I went through all the utilities and appliances and it never overloaded. I went through all the camping scenarios and it was still all good. I am very excited to have this as a backup or when we are in the remote areas with no hookups. So far, this is a great product!

Super quite and adorable

I use a generator on weekends to run four 500watt lights for flounder gigging. I can have normal conversations on the boat while running generator all night, instead of shouting like I've had to do in the past. Not to mention it's about half the price of some brands that offer the same things ( light weight,quite, etc)

Starts easy Runs quiet So far So good

got it, added oil and gas, started first pull ran a 1500 watt space heater in the garage for 3 hours. I overfilled with gas the second tank and it would not run right after reading the manual I noticed the igen2200 has a gas tank vent. I opened the gas cap and ran till gas level was below the red marker put the cap back on and it runs great. A caution not to overfill would be helpful in the instructions

Powers my RV for approximately 9 hours

I bought this generator to power my Springfield 1800 BH with a 5k btu ac side mounted unit. It powers the entire camper for 9 hours while the a/c is running and allows me to sleep through the night without having to refuel. I can really only hear the generator running as the A/C cycles off while laying in the camper. I will probably setup a system to direct the sound away from the camper but it is fairly quiet.

iGen2500 First Impression

Long time Yamaha owner. Read many reviews on this prior to purchase. Unit came on time and packaged with eveything needed except gas. Added included oil, gas and fired it up. Runs quiet and produces adequate power for our RV. Nice unit for the money. Time will tell if it turns out to be as reliable as the Yamaha, but so far its on par with the top tier brands.

Great generator!

My husband's dad has this and after we have been borrowing it, we had to get one! My husband utilizes this on job sites, our converted cargo trailer, emergency purposes and vacation. Runs pretty quiet and pretty light. Appreciate that it was factory tested before receiving it. Cost is more than fair with all its capabilities and qualities.

Easy to use

I bought this yesterday in preparation for a large storm that was coming our way. Setup was very easy, and the generator started perfectly on the first pull. It powered our sump pump well(never going over half of the maximum wattage,) and saved our basement from being flooded. Super happy with this purchase.

Great product, easy to use, very efficient.

So glad we went with this inverter. Needed power source for our wedding in the mountains, and chose to give this a try. Set up was very easy, had it up and running in no time. It handled what we needed with ease. Powered a stereo for hours, and provided charging for all of our guests and a camper overnight. Was really surprised by how quiet it was, pretty much forgot we were using a generator, though 50 people were celebrating for hours about 20 feet away the entire time. Highly recommend to others.

Perfect for 5th Wheel

I bought this for our 5th wheel travels this late Fall/early Winter expecting to be staying in rest stops along the southern tier of the US. It's light enough I can hoist is over the truck bed rails vs the twice as heavy 3100 watt unit I have. I don't have to disconnect the 5th wheel from the truck as I do with that larger unit and set it up. This unit, besides being light is also quiet. The 30A RV receptacle assures we will have power on both circuits of the RV. This will also prove handy should we suffer power outages at the house.
