The unit is unbelievably quiet for a gas-powered engine. Very easy to start and the controls are intuitive. Glad to have this for small projects, and to back-up critical things in the event of a power outage (like our refrigerator, computers, etc.).
I purchased the iGen2200 to have a small spare to my larger generator. It is efficient and can help to stretch out my gas supply when I dont need my full size. Its light enough to carry around so that I can use it for power tools.
My wife and I are avid tent campers. We decided we wanted to do more fall camping and wanted something that could power a small portable heater to help keep us warm. We used it last weekend and it did not disappoint.
There are a few reasons that I am happy I bought this generator: It is light enough to carry easily. The directions were clear and easy to follow. The generator itself was easy to use and probably, my favorite thing, it is quiet. Sorry I waited to so long to get one.
My original purchase had an issue with carburetor surging. After checking a few possible causes Westinghouse replaced the generator. Very happy with performance of new unit.
bought two of these units to run parallel. One had a carburetor issue and is still in repair. Other unit runs great. Very quiet. The idle down feature is nice. Very easy on fuel.
Works great for tailgating. I use it to run my projector for 100 ft outdoor screen, speakers, charge phones, plug in a heater or fan, lights in the evening, and crock pots.
