Very pleased.Would have gave it five stars but the spark plug was cracked. This is an ongoing issue with these units and Westinghouse needs to correct it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought two of these to run in parallel. One ran fine, the other died after 5 min. Will work with technical support.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Initial Review, very pleased out of the box!!

I have considered one of these for some time. A friend was too, and we decided to buy a pair and a parallel cable. We started them up today in parallel and load tested them.
They both started on the first pull, and performed well!! Very pleased with this product so far.

As I said this is quiet for a generator. It switches loads extremely well with very little power dip. The size is quite amazing as is the light weight. Great Product.

GREAT GENERATOR

I would compare this to the Honda 2200. For almost half the price I am getting more power and basically just as quiet. This has been great for tailgating and a backup for several appliances in my house during a power outage.
I would recommend this to a friend!

great size

I have limited storage space for a inverter/generator, so I shopped for the most power in the smallest footprint and the iGen2500 won hands down. Lots of features in a small managable package.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Exactly what I had hoped for

Pros:
- Oil & funnel included
- Started for first time on first pull
- Light (for me at least)
- LCD readout is useful
- Paralleling function works

Cons:
- A phillips-head screwdriver is needed to take the side off (no big deal really)

This little devil turned out to be everything that I had expected and hoped for. The box arrived somewhat damaged, but I went ahead and opened it anyway, and the generator was just fine.
There's a small container of oil and a funnel that come in the box. It took almost no effort to fill the oil reservoir; just pop the cover off and fill it up. My generator took the whole jug of the provided oil. I did not add any additional oil.
Before the first start, I filled the gas tank about halfway with ethanol free gas from the local Bucees. I choked the engine, and it started on the first pull. After about 5, maybe 10 seconds, it became clear that it no longer needed the choke, so I dialed it down to the "Run" position and the generator ran just fine.
The parallel cable works very well. Another guy at the office bought the same generator and the parallel cable, so we tested it out with a series of shop fans and a portable A/C unit. The load balancing appears to work well (18% & 26% with fans; 80% & 82% with A/C and fans).
10/10 would recommend!
