Quiet, compact, affordable, starts easily

Following the quick-start instructions it started on first pull. Very quiet, especially at low load. Powers our 8000BTU window air conditioner, and 700W microwave easily. At under 50 lbs, and with a good handle it's fairly easy to lug around for me. Great for powering our travel trailer when boondocking without annoying the neighbors.

Great product, quick to start!

I purchased this product a few weeks ago, and since then, I've found multiple uses, such as providing power while camping in remote areas. It was quick to start, unlike other products. I'm very pleased with its functions, and it was easy to set up and use.

Perfect for RV camping!

This inverter generator started immediately after filling with the supplied oil and my own gas. It ran super quiet and powered everything I plugged into it. It is easy to carry and lift into my truck. This generator has everything I need for boondocking in my RV and is super compact and lightweight for the amount of power it provides!

This iGen2550 inverter generator is awesome

This iGen2550 inverter generator is awesome! Couldn't believe how quiet it runs. Add a 15 Amp load and you can barely hear any increase in speed/sound. Easy to start. Great digital indicators. Easily runs my table saw, miter saw, or other tools (one at a time). Love it.

Nice dual fuel option

Just bought this to top off my Airstream trailer batteries when off grid camping. Got the duel fuel because you always have plenty of propane available on the trailer. Hooked it up to a propane tank in my driveway at 7,000' and after a bit of a propane line purging issue it started right up and easily ran a 1500 watt space heater even at this elevation. Will try it again in the mountains soon.

I would recommend this generator to anyone!

I live off grid in Michigan and use my igen everyday. It's easy to start and usually fires up on one pull. I built a small enclosed wood housing for it to keep the rain and dirt off which reduces the noise even more. Although without it, you could comfortably have a conversation right next to it without having to yell. The best part about this generator is the fuel efficiency! Must have for anyone traveling or living off grid like my family.

I gen 2550

Just received my unit and everything came as described and now going through breaking and this inverter seems to be able to handle everything as advertised. Almost the same as the IGN 2200 except this one is RV ready, a big plus. However, the RV plug is only 30 amps when hooked in parallel you are still capped at 20. Excellent unit for the price

Good little machine

Bought this to use at the track to warm my motorcycle tires, run fans, charge devices etc. Running this on propane exclusively. I changed the factory spark plug to a NGK plug after opening due to other reviews I read. Starts and runs flawlessly. I did as directed and broke in unit and then switched to synthetic oil. I also added a magnetic dipstick to help catch any metal shavings during break in and normal use.

Great Home Backup for the Money

I bought this for backup on frig, furnace fan, and lights, this will keep everything up and running until power is back on. At one time I had two units connected together and when we out of power for a week, I just switched from one unit to the next. This unit as the others is a gas saver.

Nice generator

Just followed the manual to get it going. Started on first pull. I'm still in the break in period. But I was able to charge up my Ecoflow Delta 2 in a few hours - I set the charge rate to max out on the Ecoflow to 800 watts so I was below the 50% maximum load on the generator as suggested in the manual. I've got a couple of break in hours to go. But I've got plenty of devices I want to test during the break-in period. I'm going to put it on one the small Harbor Frieght dollies so I can wheel it out of the garage easier to run it once a month or so. This unit is lighter than most, but it's still on the heavy side for me to cart around all the time.
