I bought this for ice fishing. Took it out of the box and followed directions and it won't start!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Buy

This generator has been great. Came with everything needed in the box, the directions were clear and it started right up. I originally purchased this generator for my cabin but after realizing how much electricity I need vs what I thought - I now plan on using this to power my home necessities during a power outage.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Product was great as expected. However, it was missing the spark plug wrench.

Failed to function out of the box

This is the second IGen 2500 I have purchased. The first seems to work ok, though I’ve not used it for any extended period yet.
This one will only start on on choke but cuts off when switched to run and it will not produce any power
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Travel trailer saver
on September 28, 2020

This is a great little Generator. I use this to power my travel trailer when we dry camp. Works like a champ, I have about 50 hours of use on my and no issues. I have used it in 12 hour stints with no issues, used to power the frig in the trailer once when we where stranded on the side of the road. I get about 9 hours on a tank of fuel, powering the frig, lights, tv, coffee maker, no AC. I have a soft/easy start installed on my AC, with that device installed, I can run my AC with this generator as well, that does burn more fuel.
Over all I have enjoyed this generator, worked as described and seems to be holding up well.

Lightweight and quiet
on January 2, 2021

I purchased my first ever generator after losing power for a day following tropical storm Zeta's path through metro Atlanta. I initially purchase a much larger generator, but returned it unopened because it was very heavy and bulky. I wanted something that I could move around without straining my back. This generator fits the bill. I am in my 60's and I can lift the unit and move it around. The initial setup was easy and it cranked easily after only a few pulls on the recoil handle. It runs pretty quiet for a gasoline powered engine. I also like that it is an inverter generator and the engine throttles down when it isn't pulling a heavy load.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super Quiet & Efficient!
on January 13, 2021
Posted by: Maverick123
I bought this product a little over 2 months ago, have about 35 hours on it. Its a great unit, really quiet, and super efficient.
The only 2 reasons I didn't give it 5 stars is because:
1) Even when on solid flat surface, the display screen has a minor shake to it.
2) The 120v rubber plug cover could be a little better sealed. The other plug covers are great, they fit nice and tight, but the one people probably use the most has the weakest seal.
Either way, would definitely recommend!
