I bought this genset a few weeks ago because a thunderstorm knocked out our power supply in the middle of the night. I need to use a cpap machine when I sleep so I looked for a small, compact genset and Westinghouse iGen2200 had a great review so I decided to try it. The day after it was delivered, a tornado watch came and knocked out our power supply again. It gave me a reason to open the box and power it up. I was able to power my internet router, charge our phones, use an fan and most of all use my cpap machine. It's very useful during a power outage. 5 Stars for me.
This is a great little generator- quiet and easy to use- I'm an older woman- 70 years old- and wanted something manageable during PG and E shutoffs and during the winter when power goes off. This will do the trick for me- not too big, easy to start, keeps my refrigerator and lights on and can even charge up my phone.
