Super easy to use. I added the oil and then the fuel. Generator comes with oil and device to add oil into machine. Cracked on the first try and wasn't hard to pull chord.
We bought this to run our trailer while camping. I test ran it using a 750W and 1500W heater. From eco mode it cranked up and ran them like a champ. Really looking forward to having this for camping. At load from 20 feet it was about 75dbs. Easy enough to talk over. At half load at 20ft it was in the 60’s. I’ll be testing the run time while camping, I’m sure it will meet my needs.
I purchased the iGen2200 online 8/1/2020; I received the inverter about 2 weeks later. After reading all instructions, I filled with the provided oil, and filled with the correct gasoline.The generator started on the first pull!! and ran like a champ. After warming up, I plugged in a 1300 watt appliance, and the generator picked up speed but was still surprisingly quiet. I let the inverter/generator run under a fluctuating load from a Kitchen appliance which pulled 1300 watts when heating and then dropping power draw when the appliance reached the 375 degree temperature I set - and then of course the appliance and generator/inverter cycled on/off to maintain the heat -for about 30 minutes.I utilized the "Efficiency Mode" feature which worked as described flawlessly. This feature saves gas while maintaining the lowest noise levels and only speeding up when a load is put on the Generator/Inverter. I am extremely satisfied so far with my purchase and will certainly recommend this Generator/Inverter from Westinghouse.
