The inverter model I wanted for a fuel savings for smaller and more frequent use. I've only had it a little over 2 weeks and it's having trouble staying running until it warms up. It's July in the US (not cold) so this makes me concerned about using it in a Minnesota Winter (it will be well below freezing). I'm following all the rules so I'd expect to not have any issues so soon. It does dip gas when it's going and it uses a fraction of the fuel compared to my large Predator model. I'm not sure about the sound level but if that's the volume people talk even on eco mode, people have loud conversations. Are we talking about people having a conversation across a bar, in a stadium, sure quieter, in a coffee shop or same table in a family style restaurant, nope. In a Library no way! It is a lot quieter than my large generator and is tolerable that way though. The power output is stable and plenty for most things for me to run for longer spans of time in a cost effective way. During the break in period I've kept low, just a TV, fan, and charging phones and such. The real test will be after break in when I try power tools, and larger demanding situations.

Great decision, the generator came in excellent packaging very professional. It has all of the features we wanted, rugged design multiple outputs, excellent maintainability, useful documentation. Overall an excellent purchase for the price! Weight may be an issue with me (as I am 84 years old) but so far I am able to load into our SUV.

I have a larger Westinghouse generator (IGen4500c) that has been awesome. I needed a smaller one for camping and immediately bought another Westinghouse (iGen2550c). The generators are easy to set up and operate. They are very quiet so I don't need to worry about the noise when camping. Great products!

Very good first impression of this dual fuel generator (Gasoline and Propane). Manual clear and understandable to prepare for operation and long term maintenance. Came with all the accessories such as Propane connection, engine oil, tools, funnel to add oil. Not too heavy so it can still be carried with one arm. Added oil and gasoline and it started up on first pull! Quiet operation and even more quiet in “eco mode”. Had it running for a while, therefore no long time experience as of yet. Did not run it with Propane as of yet neither. Checked it out with about 1600 VA load without reaching high RPM and not much noise increase. Although the free floating ground is no problem for the consumers (fridge, fan, lights, electronic device charger, hot plate), from a safety point I use it with a ground rod. This is going to be a backup in case of extended power failure.

Received the iGen 2500 in good condition. Added oil, gas, and started it up on the first crank. Looking forward to trying it out while dry camping with my 22 ft travel trailer. Best of all the iGen 2500 has enough power to run my trailers 13.5k BTU air conditioner.

After months of doing research and searching for a generator that I felt would be worth it's money, I decided to get the Westinghouse IGen 2550. The generator is a great addition to the other generators I have for home use. Thanks for a great product.

I recently purchased this generator and am very happy I did so. One of my biggest requirements was that it was quiet and it definitely exceeded my expectations. The fact that it is dual fuel and starts easily is icing on the cake. I highly recommend this generator.

I bought this genny at the end of Jan (live in MN) and it performed ok the 1st time, the only problem I really had was after the break-in oil. I had to take the plug out and clean it a lot to get it running again. There are other factors to, like it was really humid after a warm front went through so frost was thick in the air. But after the 1st oil change I put Mobil 1 5-30 full synthetic in it and not a problem since, and have used it atleast 100 hours since. It's the quietest genny on the market no contest. Can get almost 12 hours on a tank of gas also which is amazing.

I followed the instructions for a quick start up but after 20 min of pulling the cord. I began my own troubleshooting. Removed spark plug an found good spark but no fuel reaching spark plug. Removed access panel an noticed that choke cable not connected at carb. I connected it and unit started one pull. I believe unit was tested on propane and not gasoline. Because of choke cable design it could not have been connected at factory. Please send me a cover for unit. Ps. Because of my small engine training I solved problem. Otherwise it would have been returned Kevin Burke

This iGen2550 came nicely packaged, Followed the easy to read manual, started on 2nd pull, nice design & easy to handle, quiet and smooth, love the lighted LED panel .I'll mount it on the back of my golf cart/workhorse to run a electric chain saw & pole saw on the estate trees and bushes .I hope to get many years of service. I got 30 yrs or service out of my Coleman Powermate 1000 before the governor went south last week. Time will tell. Good Job Westinghouse
