Great Unit!

Bought unit on 10/31/24 and but through the 5 hour break in procedure the next day varying from no load to 50% load with a space heater - The generator ran flawlessly. Took about 5 pulls to start after the first fuel fill to prime but after that it started on first pull after the 3 oil changes that I did for break in. So far I'm very happy.

Good Generator

Bought this to use for events and camping, but also powering the house during outages. Does the job. Only issue was that the unit did not ship with a can of oil, but instead the oil was already added. The box was factory sealed so not an open box return.

Love this!

Love how light this generator is! I sold my last larger generator due to the fact of needing help to get it into my 2500 truck without assistance. This generator is much quieter and more fuel efficient than my last inverter generator. I can easily get this into my truck with a lift for RV trips. I am happy with the purchase!

Great purchase!

Recommended by a family member and they were spot on. We bought two, use for camping and love them! Was concerned when the recall occurred. However all fears were erased by the efficient, professional manner exhibited by the Westinghouse people I talked to and the quick repair. This is a wonderful generator. BG

Happy Camper

I went camping for the very 1st time on a primate site. All other times have been on sites with water & electricity hookup. I'm very happy with the purchase. I typically don't reserve primate sites but if I do in the future I'll have this if I need it.

Finally!

I have had a need for a small inverter generator as my main one is too big to carry camping, hunting, etc. After months of studying, I settled on the igen2550dfc due to reliability, price, power, and dual fuel capabilities. It went on sale 2 weeks ago and I was able to get one from a reputable dealer for an awesome price. The cord is super easy to pull and it starts up very easy. I can't wait to hook it up to my travel trailer after the 25 hour break in period.

Bought a 2nd One To Parallel

The first would run my 15k AC, but only on low fan and it was maxed out running at full RPM and was quite loud. I bought a 2nd one to parallel, now it handles the load easily, both units run at mid RPM and are significantly quieter. I was torn between the portability of 2 parallel 2k units vs 1 quieter 100 lb 4k unit. These are being used for my MX race trailer, so the noise should not be an issue. If I was buying for my camping trailer, I would definitely choose a 4k unit now. The people that rate this at quiet must only use at on Eco mode with low loads. It's not at all quiet maxed out. Just know what you are buying.

Excellent Generator Inverter

Excellent price for this generator! Half the price of Honda, which I had before this one. It was shipped propmtly, arrived in great shape and started right up after I put the gas and oil in it. We just bought it to keep our two refrigerators going during power outages. So far, thankfully, nothing have gone wrong.

Great Generator For The Price

I bough this generator 2 weeks ago and have used it for a while so i can review it properly. I purchased it because of the features it has that are very helpful such as the display. It shows time it will run until empty based on load, how much fuel is in the fuel tank, how many watts are loaded on the generator, engine hours which is helpful for maintenance, and how many liters of fuel is left. Its pretty fuel efficient I just finished its break in today so far its running good. Now for the things I don't like. Its not as quiet as i was hoping for but its a small high revving engine up to 5000 rpm so to be expected. The plastic panel on the right side rattles quiet a bit adding to the noise which sometimes is louder then the generator itself. And last it always takes a lot of pulls to start it about 7 to 10 pulls cold even if it just ran the day before about 3 or 4 warm. I start it just like the manual says but still is hard to start cold and warm. But overall a decent generator if you can get over the hard starting sometimes.

Dead on arrival

I followed the instructions for a quick start up but after 20 min of pulling the cord. I began my own troubleshooting. Removed spark plug an found good spark but no fuel reaching spark plug. Removed access panel an noticed that choke cable not connected at carb. I connected it and unit started one pull. I believe unit was tested on propane and not gasoline. Because of choke cable design it could not have been connected at factory. Please send me a cover for unit. Ps. Because of my small engine training I solved problem. Otherwise it would have been returned Kevin Burke
