I have only used the generator with propane fuel. It was easy to start and worked without issue. It is not as quiet as some inverter generators but is not loud as generators go. When considering quality, price, features and warranty, it would be a hard generator to beat

Day One, delivered in perfect condition, no scratches or broken pieces. Easy to follow instructions on set up. Man, this thing is light. Running oil provided, no problem filling with oil and gasoline. Set the choke following the start up guidelines, couple pulls and she coughed once, next pull, fired right up. Ran smooth through warm up and settled down in Eco mode. Made this purchase for our small off-road trailer. This is the smallest gen/inv that I could find that came 30amp trailer ready. Couple this with a softstart and I can run my air conditioner. I'm very impressed in my testing of this unit. Really like the digital data center that provides all the information I need to safely run this piece of hardware. Already recommended this generator/inverter to my neighbor who is looking to purchase one as well. Westinghouse, you did well.

I bought this a few weeks ago and it's a well thought out generator. It starts easily and is very quiet. I really like the drain tube to empty the carburetor float chamber because there are times when it won't be run for several months and draining the carb keeps if from clogging up. Living in Florida we get hurricanes now and again and it's comforting to know we have a power backup in case our electricity goes out. I also like the digital read out of what the generator is producing and what the load is on it. Very nice!

Bought this with never having heard of the brand but couldn't be happier. Took it on a 8 day road trip through some nation parks and it started every single time with the first pull! It is quiet enough that I don't hear it when inside my cabover too. Only issue is the fuel shut off doesn't actually stop the fuel because it will keep running but it doesn't bother me.

just fired it up so can't provide too much meaningful data but so far i like it. price was right. very easy to use. nice packaging and controls. started very smoothly and runs fairly quiet. writing this review because i was offered a free cover for the generator but now apparently i am not going to be sent one! seems wrong to offer something then take it back. but that's nothing against the generator; more westinghouse as a company

New in box. 9/19/2017 made 1st oil and fuel fill. Noticed residual of oil on stick before any fill. Is that normal? Attempted 1st startup same day, 9/19/2017. After several pulls, gasoline ran out of unit and all over driveway. Float bowl drain screw was open (per advice from online chat). Instructions do not ever mention to check the float bowl drain screw before startup. It is only opened to drain the gas. Closed screw, aired out generator with fans for several hours as well as cleaned driveway. Unfortunately, wife came out at this time and you can only imagine her concern. The entire back of the house smelled like gasoline. She was now calling the city recycling to see if they would promptly haul the generator away as I am at the same time trying to reach Westinghouse tech support. Next startup is now successful, however still makes some odd deep puff sounds during idling? Is this normal? Ran with no load for 30 minutes. Added about 330 watts for over an hour, then added and ran a small 5,000 btu a/c for over an hour. Slowly removed loads and let gen idle for 5-10 minutes. Still noticed deep puff sounds during the idling. Final step, turned gen dial to off, but unit would not turn off. Finally turned dial to choke and system sputtered off. I think I need a replacement and it must be guaranteed new. I have too much concern and suspicion about this unit.

My inverter arrived yesterday. Added oil & gas and it started right up. It's surprisingly quiet. I considered a Honda 2200 but this was about 1/3 the price. It seems to be well made. It's light and easy to move around and store. I'll try to post another review after I use it for a month or so.

iGen2500...My first outing with this machine and I could not be more happy. Starts first pull every time. Very quiet machine. You don't even know it's running while in a small group of people outside tailgating. I ran two crockpots and a large margarita machine at the same time with no problem at all. I highly recommed this generator for camping/tailgating.

I am happy with this purchase. I wanted a small, quiet and easy to use generate to run a few things at the cottage if my power went out. I also wanted one that was an inverter and dual fuel because I prefer to run off a propane tank, as propane tanks can also be used for the BBQ so the fuel doesn't go stale! This one does all of these well. It took me a little while to get it started for the first time but I was able to do so with propane. The trick for mine was to prime the propane with 4 presses, pull the recoil a couple times with the choke out, and then close the choke three-quarters, and pull the recoil a few more times. I've run it a few times now to break it in, totalling about 4 hours.

After researching and comparing different models, I purchased the Westinghouse 2,550 Watt Dual Fuel Gas and Propane Powered Portable Inverter Generator with recoil start for its features. The generator is lightweight, starts easily and runs quietly. The dual fuel capability is a great feature and is one of the features that sold me on this generator. It is efficient and powerful enough to run my essential appliances when the power goes out. I also plan on using the generator when we tailgate with our RV. So far I am very pleased with this generator.
