Great features for the price

I purchased the 2550c for off grid camping at the beach. I found the inverter to be very accommodating and worked as expected. It starts on 2nd pull and sips gas. It will not run my 13500 RV A/C. And I am a little disappointed at that. I would recommend this product for camping. It's extremely quiet.

New Generator

This is my second Westinghouse generator, my first inverter type, the 2550 dual fuel. It's quiet, works well, the only issue I've had is using the eco mode on propane, it will cut off on a low load, so I just don't use eco mode with propane. It's light and appears it will serve my needs well

Manual needs improvements, need more tools

I am a first time generator owner/user. The manual has references to things that do not have precise correspondence to the tables. Example, Page 20 refers to "relief valve" without referencing a table or figure number. There is a figure that describes something as a "valve". Are the the same thing? I don't know, because I am a first time generator owner/user. That produced uncertainty in my setting up and using the product. The manual should have said on page 16 approximately how much volume of oil to initially service the unit (iGen2550DFc) with. It turns out that it needed the whole container supplied with the generator, but it should would have been nice if I had known that, because the manual said on page 16 to stop frequently (and presumably check), and it says, in bold, "DO NOT overfill", which was very cumbersome since the supplied funnel needs to be screwed into the oil dipstick hole. The manual's specific instructions on page 20 for starting the engine were ambiguous. It said that if it didn't start, one should repeat steps, but it didn't say which steps to repeat.

Excellent piece of equipment!

Power went out a few weeks ago with no fix time established by com-ed Found this unit the following morning and by noon I was up and running; plugging in an unbelievable amount of stuff! I love the screen showing KW in use / gave me a great window into capacity of the unit / power came back on days faster than expected but so glad to own this beautiful little machine/ sitting on a shelf in the basement ready for the next outage!

Great features

I bought this because of it's 30 amp outlet, light weight, and quiet. This is great little generator. I didn't realize it also can show fuel level, volts, running hours, and led lights to light up front panel. Also tool less removal of side panels. Enjoying this little generator.

Perfect power for my new Lance Trailer

I needed off the grid power to run my microwave and AC for occasional boondocking nights in our RV. I'm running this unit in tandem with another iGen2000 unit to enable operation at fairly high altitude locations. So far my 9.2 btu AC unit has cycled like a champ at 8100ft elev. with the two gens set to quiet mode. Thats pretty impressive.

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.

I am really impressed with my purchase!

I purchased this model for the power output and size. I intend to use it for my travel trailer and as a backup for power outage after going through hurricane Irma 10 days no power. I can use this to keep refrigerator running 24 7 without running my big generator. As after a storm its hard to get fuel. Really quiet and smooth running.

Great purchase!

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

Easy to start and quiet

We use this unit for our 5th wheel and so far it has met expectations. I tested it with my wife's blow dryer and it handled it fine. Hopefully it performs just as well when it is 90 plus degrees and I have to use the air conditioner. The blow dryer is 1800 watts so I don't forsee a problem. This unit was half the price of a Honda and has a higher output rating.
