Just what I needed

With the recent hurricane Helene, I found that I could not recharge my solar generator because the power was out and we had cloudy skies. This generator inverter is just the tool I need to recharge my larger solar generator. Also, I was looking for a dual fuel inverter, and this one fit that requirement as well.

Lightweight Little Powerhouse

Bought during a camping trip where power was out due to storms. It was quiet, easy to use and powered our camper and charged batteries etc until power was restored. Saved our camping trip and easy to transport fr future use. Also good to have at home to keep several things running during a power outage.

Powerful, Quiet, and Efficient

Very silent, easy setup and small size. An inverter generator is the perfect solution for reliable, clean, and quiet power. Unlike traditional generators, it produces stable electricity that's safe for sensitive devices like laptops, phones, and TVs. It's fuel-efficient, environmentally friendly, and surprisingly quiet — ideal for camping, home backup, or job sites. Compact, portable, and easy to use, an inverter generator brings peace of mind wherever you need power

Great portable powerful generator

I purchased this for three reasons, first to power my truck camper with when camping, second to tailgate with at Raiders games, and third in case of a power outage at home. I purchased this one specifically because of the dual fuel (Only really plan on running on propane so the carb is easily maintained) and because of the the 30 amp RV plug in. The generator fired right up on propane after following the directions and purging the lines. So far it has not missed a beat.

Best (only) 2600w Surge / 2200w Running Generator

I recently purchased this generator to run my new trailer, which has a 15,000 BTW AC. The AC with no other load draws around 1500 watts. Throw in a few accessories; refrigerator, water pump, entertainment, and your well over 1800 watts, which is what most 2000w generators max out at. This little beauty is 2600w surge for AC startup (yes, I did need a hard start capacitor), and 2200w running - and all for < 50 lbs. This is the only generator in the 2500w <50 lb class. The next step up is 3000w and close to 100 lbs. So happy Westinghouse makes this generator.

More power than most protable generator

I am going to use 2 generators to operate air-conditioner from my RV (13500BTU). It seems the starting AC without any issues and the generator has a lot of power. The potential concern so far I have is that the power consumption from both units is not equal (e.g., one showed 0.76 power and the other 0.32). I don't understand why unbalanced power happened under the paralleling operation when the westinghouse paralleling cable was used.

Nice Generator!

This generator has gotten some fantastic reviews online, and has some really great features. The LED readout gives you some very useful information including the amount of time remaining and the fuel level. I liked this particular model (iGEN 2500) which has more output than most that are the same size. Price and quietness were also major benefits.

Easy and starts with 1 pull

I purchased this generator for two reasons. First since we live in Florida I wanted a dependable unit to have in case of a power outage from a hurricane. Second we enter our community golf cart Christmas parade every year. And this year we needed a generator to power all of our lights.

Perfect for our RV needs.

Just received this IGen2550DFc, came in perfect condition after reading the very reader friendly instructions, I was ready to set it up. This generator started on the first pull. Ran great on both Rec Gas and LP tank. In the process of the break In period. My second Westinghouse Generator and it did not disappoint. Still have my first one and 5 years later I am a customer for life. Thanks for great products.

Convenient generator for occasional boondocking!

Wanted a small generator that would be easy to lift in and out of pickup truck bed for a long road trip from Arizona through western Canada. This will supplement our solar/lithium battery system during our boondocking days/nights, and wanted dual fuel for flexibility. Already own 2 of Westinghouse's larger model, iGen4500DF. All are a great value compared to other brands!
