A great generator at a GREAT price!
Very happy with this generator. Very fuel efficient, 1.2 gallons lasts all day. I really like the 30 AMP RV outlet. This is perfect for my truck camper or any time you may need backup power. It's also very light and quiet, they did a very good job designing and building this genset.

Great Generator
Awesome features USB, 30A for my RV, and of course 110AC. Dual fuel is a great option for camping! Very light and quiet. Perfectly powers my new Scamp travel trailer and anything else I need for my camp. Makes me feel prepared and safe while I camp. Easy for this 62 year old Iowa Girl to transport and maintain!

Great price point for the portability AND power
seems made well and has good output, light weight, compact and very quiet. Works with propane as advertised. Haven't tried with regular gas yet but good to know it's an option

Great small job site generator.
Generator is lightweight for its rating, and seems well built. I have two other larger IGen from Westinghouse. I can throw it in back of truck and take to a job site in a hurry. I bought a 10lb propane bottle which it will run all day off of. It does idle a bit rough if there is not load on it, and even more so in Eco mode. Dont think it would not be smooth if powering a light load in a campground for example. Factory stated that Eco mode is only for small appliances, but it seems to run best when a small heater, pump, or power tool is drawing power. Under those conditions it is great. It is also quiet for a generator, and started easily.

Works Great
Started up right out of the box. Make sure you follow the initial start up procedure to avoid problems. The documentation provided is excellent.I have run this for about three hours now. I have tested it with various devices and have had no issues. I charged an e-bike, an iPhone, ran a fan, and even plugged in a small space heater. It handled everything. As long as you pay attention not to overload the watt, especially during the breaking period.I tested it with gas and propane. Both worked fine.It is relatively quiet for a generator. Keep it in eco mode and it is even better. It's not like you can't hear it but not to anoying. Less noise than my lawn mower.

Great Generator
I recently purchased the Westinghouse iGen2800c, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! This portable inverter generator has exceeded my expectations in so many ways.First off, it's incredibly quiet. I was pleasantly surprised at how little noise it produces. We recently had Helene pass through, and I legitimately could not hear this generator running outside my back door over the sound of the neighbor's generators 100 feet away. Very, very quiet.The power output is more than sufficient for my needs, it was able to easily power a fridge, chest freezer, and router, as well as charge several devices without ever leaving eco mode.Portability is another strong suit. It’s lightweight and comes with a comfortable handle, making it easy to transport. I appreciate the compact design, which fits neatly in my garage without taking up too much space.Setup was a breeze—no complicated assembly or extensive instructions. Just add oil, fill it with gas, and it's good to go. Fired right up first try, ran with no issues for 24 hours straight, only being shut off to refill the fuel.Maintenance is easy and straightforward, access to the oil drain/fill port is easy, though I'd recommend using the included funnel to drain the oil, otherwise it spills down inside the machine. The spark plug and air filter are likewise easy to access, though the fuel filter looks like it'll be difficult to change. Maintenance requirements are pretty minimal, and all parts are readily available from the Westinghouse website.Fuel efficiency is absolutely incredible. This generator holds about 1 gallon of gas, and with a fridge, freezer, router, and fan connected, it'll run for 10+ hours on that single gallon of gas. Very, very efficient generator. The description says it'll run for 12 hours at 25% load, but I never had it go quite that long for me. Real world, I'd say expect 8-10 hours of actual run time, which is still very good for a single gallon of gas.Overall, the Westinghouse iGen2800c is an excellent investment for anyone in need of a reliable, efficient, and portable generator. If you're looking for something that'll keep your frozen foods frozen and charge your phone, it's an absolutely great investment. Very fuel efficient, plenty of power for basic appliances, easy to transport, and relatively inexpensive. Highly recommended.

Powerful & Portable, But Minor Room for Improvement
The Westinghouse 1500W Inverter Generator impresses with its quiet operation and lightweight design, perfect for camping or backup power. The CO sensor adds peace of mind, and parallel capability boosts versatility. While the blue finish is sleek, runtime varies slightly under heavy loads. Overall, a reliable choice—4 stars for its balance of power and portability, minus one for minor efficiency quirks. Highly recommend!
