Very pleased with the sound level produced and how the unit works. The unit handles what we need to make it through power outage from storms so we have some light and internet
I would recommend this to a friend!

Manual needs improvements, need more tools
on April 13, 2025
Posted by: JeremyFallsChurch
from Falls Church, Virginia
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.

Great for of grid

I actually bought this unit a month ago. We love our grid in northern Michigan and our other generator died. So we needed a new one. I have read great reviews on this unit. It's is easy to start and runs good. Also quiet. Love the fuel level so you can tell when your going to run out. Running adeep freezer and a small cabin. All is great.

It's easy to carry, runs quiet, runs a long time on a tank of gas and most important charges my e bike when we're on a riding/camping trip
