I am on the road for most of the year and will be using it for an air conditioner (summer) and heater for the winter. Given what I paid for it as opposed to $3-4000 in hotel bills it has paid for itself already. As time goes by i will be trying various other equipment as well and only then will I see how it holds up. I did a bit of research prior to buying the generator and this fell into the amp range and price range. I thought it would be lighter but I will get used to it

I wanted a dual fuel generator to augment my solar capability on my camper. Don't need to run AC, space heaters, etc. Just needed something to help charge our batteries that wasn't overly heavy. This unit seems to fit the bill. Excited to give it a go on our upcoming trip out West!

Pros: - Oil & funnel included - Started for first time on first pull - Light (for me at least) - LCD readout is useful - Paralleling function works Cons: - A phillips-head screwdriver is needed to take the side off (no big deal really) This little devil turned out to be everything that I had expected and hoped for. The box arrived somewhat damaged, but I went ahead and opened it anyway, and the generator was just fine. There's a small container of oil and a funnel that come in the box. It took almost no effort to fill the oil reservoir; just pop the cover off and fill it up. My generator took the whole jug of the provided oil. I did not add any additional oil. Before the first start, I filled the gas tank about halfway with ethanol free gas from the local Bucees. I choked the engine, and it started on the first pull. After about 5, maybe 10 seconds, it became clear that it no longer needed the choke, so I dialed it down to the "Run" position and the generator ran just fine. The parallel cable works very well. Another guy at the office bought the same generator and the parallel cable, so we tested it out with a series of shop fans and a portable A/C unit. The load balancing appears to work well (18% & 26% with fans; 80% & 82% with A/C and fans). 10/10 would recommend!

I have never used a generator before. I wanted the family to be prepared for any power outages during hurricane season or the typical winter ice storm in NC. The iGen 2500 was super easy to set up, came with its own oil and funnel, I just needed to add gas. It started right up without any issues. I bought the iGen 2500 because I wanted to be able to easily - at a glance - know how much fuel I had remaining. The digital display of time remaining, fuel remaining, and power usage are AWESOME. Why doesn't every generator come with that feature - thanks Westinghouse!

Midwest spring snowstorm power outage caused sump pump failure - flooded basement. Frantically driving from store to store before all were closed for the night, found this Westinghouse available 45 minutes away. Bought online one of the two available and hustled down the highway. Have never used a generator, but instructions were easy to understand and machine is easy to operate. Feared overfilling the oil, knowing how that can damage engines, so filled very slowly. The bottle of oil included must be the correct amount for initial filling - if this is correct, I would recommend stating that in the written instructions. This generator got us back on track by getting the sump pump going - we only had that one load of the sump pump, but this unit has 2 USB ports (along with the 2 20A receptacles and one 30A receptacle) if we had needed to charge phones. Glad we have this in our home, wish we had it earlier and definitely recommend this as a wedding gift. Every home should have one!

Was so glad to finally get this 2,200 running watt generator to use with our 5th wheel.I had already installed a Micro Air Easy Start on our 13,500 BTU air conditioner so I would not have to deal with my 3,500 watt generator weighting in at 114 pounds in the back of our truck. As soon as it got here I read the instructions, filled the oil, filled the gas and it started right up (on the second pull). Let it warm up for a few minutes then plugged in the 5th wheel.Then went inside and turned on the air and let it run for a hour and half. The generator never missed a beat it just kept cranking out the watts! Looking forward to some great boon docking this summer. Thanks Westinghouse for a great product.

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.

Had a little trouble starting unit out of the box but Westinghouse support got me up and running. Quiet unit for small jobs like one fridge, lights and device charging. Would certainly recommend for a emergency back-up during post storm power loss and/or camping.

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

I live in central east Florida and expecting lots of storms this year. I have a 6500 watt generator that is just too loud and I wanted an inverter generator as they are much quieter. Out of the box and after carefully reading the book, this one started right up on propane, so glad I bought the dual fuel. Appears to be well made and something you dont see enough of is quality.
