YAMAHA EF2200iS Inverter Generator, 2200 Watts, Blue

I use this generator for a mobile AC.Personally I charge the oil every 50-60 hours.

I gave it 5 stars in the hopes that it last as long as the Yamaha EF1000 that I purchased in 1993 for a trip to Alaska. It ran off and on for 23 years and I believe if I could find a coil pack it would run again.I purchased this to replace 2 Predator 3500 that have had problems with running properly. Tune ups, oil changes and the replacement of the electronic control and carburetor and still having problems to get to running.So it appears I will need to purchase a second Yamaha EF2200is and a parallel cable to run my 15,000 BTU unit. But from the time I ordered 4/7/25 to 4/10/25 the price has increased by $200.00. Thanks to the Tariffs.

Works like it should. I bought this for backup power for my refrigerator when the power goes out due to planned outages or what they're calling public safety power shutoff due to high winds (to prevent fires). I haven't had the chance to use it during an oitage yet, but I tested it and it works great to power the refrigerator so my food doesn't spoil. That's all I need it for. I can live without lights and electricity otherwise.

The reason I give it four stars is because I haven't really used it yet, other than get it filled with oil and some gas and start it and plugged in couple fans, heater, a lamp ,which it run all of them just fine, I see No reason it will not run the Fridge and the Wife's O-2 machine just fine also. And be a five star!It was easy to get set up and started on the 3rd pull. run like a top. its not light, pretty heavy. but one man can move it around if need be. The handle on it is good and way its made one man on each side and pick it right up and go ,no problem. I think for the cost, it was a good deal, and Yamaha has been around long time, and I look for this generator to be also! Also its not to loud at all, which is good thing too!

Great deal I always wanted one of this but somehow a few year they were unavailable and more expensive, unbelievable deal.Very happy it arrived within time followed all instructions and 4 th pull she went running !!Seller is an outstanding company!!High recommended !!Hopefully I can get longevity out of this one my 2000 is was trouble 😱I own the Honda 2200is as well and a 4500 Westinghouse reason I live in the Florida keys and at one time I was without electric for a month and that’s not fun experience.Now im all set when comes to electric power.

Received the ef2200is generator. Added the prescribed amount of 10w-30 oil. Started the generator and the engine races. It will never idle down. No power is generated. I ran it for 10 minutes thinking it would warm up. There was no change in the behavior of the engine and power was never generated. Amazon refused a return and said I need to take up the issue with Yamaha. Spent two hours calling Yamaha during their specified business hours. No one from the Outdoor Power Equipment division will answer their phones and the mailboxes are full. I talked to several humans at Yamaha and they said I need to talk to the Outdoor Power Equipment division. They transfer me but no one ever answers and the mailboxes are full. Looks like I just lost $800.Update: I finally talked to someone at Yamaha who could “help”. He told me that Yamaha has exited the Outdoor Power Equipment business and that the best he could do was to tell me where I might be able to get it fixed. So beware, there is zero support and the three year warranty means absolutely nothing. So disappointed in Yamaha. Used to be quality and standing behind the product. Now it is nothing but crap evidently.

I owe this review souly to AMAZON. Thank you for a job well done. I am not going to explain but you will be a winner.

Right out of the box this generator was easy to set up and was in perfect condition. I read the owners manual to familiarize myself with its features, added oil and fuel and it started easily. I used it on a trip in the RV where my wife needed power for a CPAP and found that the generator could run for over twelve hours even with making coffee in the morning while watching the TV news.The sound level is very tolerable and the weight of the unit allows me to carry it a short distance and stow it in the RV.I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
