As advertised: easy start, quiet, highly recommend

Clear instructions, easy pull, started first time. Very quiet, looks great, easy to move. I have run it only a few hours to check it out, very pleased. One problem, however is the LED data center. I filled with gasoline, but it only showed 0.9 liters, and a little over 3 hours of run time left. I ran the time down to zero and it didn't affect the operation. Maybe a float is stuck and will eventually release. The fuel remaining stayed at 0.9L. I assume when I get to 0.9L, this value will begin to drop. I will still have a warning. Not a big enough problem for me to lose faith in this machine. Would highly recommend it

CFH Minnesota

I purchased a IGEN2550 on 10/06/24 for emg home power. This product appeared to meet my needs at 1900 watts. The unit is compact and not to heavy. Has good readout information, easy pull and starting, fuel consumption good. Manual book very good. I have run it thru 5 hour breakin with no issues.I am happy with purchase. Thank you for the generator cover bonus. CFH

Generator started in two pulls of the rope and ran quite.

I purchased this product after some internet research on generators. The reviews told me this was a great product, the generator was easy to start and use, and the running noise levels were better than the Honda or Yamaha. I started the generator and plugged several power tools into it and it performed as expected.

Easy to get set up and get started

I recently bought the Westinghouse iGen2550DFc because I moved to coastal South Carolina and wanted a reliable dual fuel generator. This unit fit my needs for wattage and best of all, its light to carry around as a portable generator. Hope I don't need to use it but I'm glad I found something portable and reasonable.

One of the better inverter generators I've used

I recently purchased the Westinghouse iGen2550c generator, and I'm thoroughly impressed! It's compact, lightweight, and surprisingly quiet, making it perfect for camping and outdoor activities. The setup was easy, and it started right up with no issues. With a solid runtime and efficient fuel consumption, it's an excellent value for the price. I highly recommend it for anyone in need of a portable, reliable power source.

First Inverter Generator - Awesome

This was my first generator I have ever purchased and It seems to be a great one. I looked at a lot but I decided on this because, of the price point, features and postive reviews I have seen. I really like that this has two outputs where a lot seem to just have one. The unit is fairly quiet and you can forget its there. Its not to heavy to carry around and feels very sturdy. Instrusctions are clear and all the information is on the unit as well such as oil type and other specs. Very glad I went with this one!

Love It, Easy To Use

I bought this for the “minor emergencies” where the power will be out a few hours. I pull out the big Westinghouse out for major events. This little generator will run a 5000 BTU a/c plus more without a problem. I trust the Westinghouse name, I've been burned on cheap generators.

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

Hurricane Readiness

We recently moved to the coastal Southeast and wanted to be prepared for hurricane season. I bought the iGen2550DFc along with a battery power bank to ensure that we can immediately power essential appliances and equipment and ensure the capability to operate without grid power for an extended period of time. Space is at a premium in our new house. The iGen2550DFc met my needs for size, portability and output. The dual fuel capability was also important, as it's such a hassle to store and maintain gasoline for extended periods, even with stabilizer. I always have a couple of 20-lb LP tanks around; if they run out I can always switch to gasoline. And this generator sips gas at such a slow rate that I don't have to keep a lot on hand. First impressions are great. The generator came securely packaged and the operating instructions are clear. Finish quality is good, and the control/output panel is intuitive. I was able to get it started on propane within a few minutes of connecting it to the tank. I was impressed with how quiet it is...a pleasant change from generators that I've previously owned.
