Lite Weight and Powerful Inverter Generator

The Westinghouse iGEN2500 is equal or lighter weight than most of the 2000 Watts inverter generators that I researched but best of all it's peak output is 500 watts greater. Additionally, it is quiet as most with the exception of the Honda and Yamaha which are only slightly lower but are twice the price. Westinghouse's iGEN2500 with it's larger power is a perfect fit for my new Travel Trailer

I like the control panel features

My one problem is that the engine control switch is backwards. I have to turn the switch to "off" to start it up and turn the switch to "choke" to shut it down. It runs quietly which is nice. Looking forward to powering up some tools out in the country.

Great units

This will be my 3rd Westinghouse Inverter generator. They live up to the promise of small, light, and long lasting. I have a larger 4500 watt, and just upgrade to this dual fuel unit from a 2000 Watt gasoline only (and gave that one to my oldest son).

Great Inverter Generator

Bought this to use both stand alone and in parallel with my iGen5000DFc. Both are quiet enough to use in National Parks when travelling, but can also use to back up critical power needs at home for emergencies. Opened up, followed quick start instructions, ran - loaded and unloaded, tested all features and outlets, etc. Very happy with test results and purchase.

Great Dual Fuel Generator

I purchased this last month to carry with us in our Fitfh wheel RV to charger the batteries is needed and to enable us to run 1 of the air conditioners while camping off the grid. I run this off of the propane system on the RV so I purchased a hose without a regulator (propane system is regulated on the RV). I found that when the generator is cold you need to pull out the manual choke to keep it running until it warms up. If you don't it will run for 30 sec to a minute then shut off like it has run out of fuel. Love the 30 amp outlet on the control panel, most smaller ones only have the 20 amp outlets.

Very good value

Did extensive research on small portable generators. The iGen 2500 stood out as a very reliable model which should take care of my needs during a power outage. The generator appears to be well built, compact and light weight. The unit started on the second pull and is everything I expected. I look forward to using it the next time we loose power.

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.

Great small generator

So easy to get up and running. Instructions are easy to follow. Generator started on the third pull. It is quiet. I wanted to test it to be sure it worked and was not damaged in shipment. It ran perfectly on propane and powered a small heater. I hope to never have to put gasoline in it. Exactly what I was looking for. I also hope to receive my bonus gift dust cover for leaving this review.

Excellent Product

I have been looking for several months to find a generator that i liked for powering equipment on my pier. After looking at Westinghouse and reading reviews, I was sold on the IGEN2550. I am so glad I made the purchase. This easy to carry generator is a powerhouse. I would highly recommend this product.

Suprisingly Good

Just received the Igen2500, added oil and gas, then went to start it and it started first pull. runs smooth and quiet, then hooked it up to my R-POD with a 13500btu air conditioner, ran a/c no problem, running around 1400-1500 watts steady. tried it on another rv with a different brand a/c same results. Love the LED data display. So far very happy!
