Another winner!

I bought this one to complement the other identical one I bought last week. Now I can parallel them for a total of 3,600 running watts and 5,100 peak watts. The beauty of this is I can take one or both on camping/travel trips depending on how much power I require. A single generator with the same power output would weigh over 100 lbs, these are only 50 with gas and oil. After much research I find these are the most affordable quality state of the art Inverter Generators on the market.

Nice

Packaged great, comes with oil and a small tool kit as well as cables for multiple inverters. Put oil in after reading all instructions, added a small amount of gas being I knew I wouldn't be using it full time for a few months yet. Gave a few short prime pulls and then 2 pulls later boom - up and running. I put my grinder on it to test for load and noise and was extremely impressed. So far I'd say I got a great machine.

perfect tool for the job!

I bought this generator as a backup powersource for my household fridge, water filter system and misc electronics in the case of a power outage. Runs smooth and quiet. Hope I will never need it but have peace of mind in the case that we do. Thanks!

Great little generator for RV

I bought this generator to top up my RV trailer's batteries when boondocking and am very pleased so far: system fires up on the first pull, and having a 30 amp plug makes it simple to bring max power to my trailer. Light weight makes it easy to heft into the pickup bed without straining the back.

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.

Easy power out of the box!

Right out of the box, read the quick start guide, add oil and go! Directions are well written and clear. Started 2nd pull. Ran a fan, then a power saw then both just to test. Lightweight, easy to handle. Heading North with it to continue our cabin build. Glad I bought it.

Great Little Generator

Purchased the iGEN2550 dual fuel in early October 2024 because hurricane Helene left our marina without power and this is the only way to charge the boat's batteries. The unit started fairly easy (it took a few pulls of the cord) and ran very quiet. The only issue I found was locating the serial number. Instructions say to look in the information label (not there), then during product registration the instruction to locate the serial number says it is under the exhaust (not there either). So I found a large number/letter combination that I used, I hope that is the correct serial number. Another number (CRA0281) was with the user manual, but I don't know if this is correct.

Great for the price and pretty quiet!

Bought this approximately 30 seconds before our power came back on, but decided to keep it for any future outages and possibly for use with a small camper. Some friends had no power longer and used it to power a water pump for them. Fired up on the first pull! With the dipstick being mostly horizontal it's a little hard to tell how much is in there, but the nice (and included!) funnel made filling it up pretty painless!

Great Generator

Very reliable. I keep up with the maintenance, follow the instructions and works perfectly as advertised. I connect a refrigerator, fan, lights and a tv with no problems, and is quite; the efficiency button reduces the noise level even more. This is the fourth generator I have bought from westinghouse. This generator meet all my requirements of price, noise, weight, fuel consumption and portability.

Westinghouse inverter

bought today and have to say right out of the box is easy to set up. came with all the required items to set up with the oil, parallel cords, and funnel. Once all gas and oil was added start up was super easy in one pull fired right up. Have not gotten to use it on my RV yet, but I have no question it will work just fine for what I need.
