Bought this unit for tailgating and couldn't be more pleased(Go Vols)! Took 12 pulls to start initially, starts on the first pull ever since. Pleased with how quite it is. My friends who own a Yamaha and a Honda have been very impressed with this unit.
Bought as a backup to run small household items during Hurricane Irma. Removed from box added oil and fuel, then cranked it up and 3rd pull. Ran quite and smooth after. Hurricane is gone and now look forward to using it at tailgates this fall.
Compare to a Honda before you buy!! You'll be surprised.

Just opening it and I'll comment later after usage but the facts are significant. Westinghouse vs, Honda 2200/2500 Watts vs. 1800/2000 Watts 3 Year warranty vs. 1 Year warranty Price $479. vs. $999.
Bought it shortly after arrival of Hurricane Harvey in Texas. Were without power for 10 hours. Once receiving the unit I operated all required items and multiple LED lights and now I am ready for the next time our power goes out
Last year during Mathew I borrowed a Honda generator from a friend and was really pleased with its performance and how quiet it was but when purchasing one this year I was not happy to see it sold for $999. Very, very happy with the Igen2500 and how much quieter and fuel efficient it is and I saved $300 over the Honda. I searched many brands and types of generators and am confident that I made the best choice.
