Pros
  • Runs on natural gas from the house line, so it never needs refueling in a long outage
  • Two 50 A outlets, so it can feed a 50 A transfer switch and an RV at once
  • Fuel injection starts more easily in the cold and needs no carburetor cleaning
  • Sold in all 50 states, including California
  • Five-year warranty, longer than most rivals
Cons
  • Costs far more than carbureted generators of the same output
  • No 30 A twist-lock outlet, so a 30 A transfer switch cord needs an adapter
  • About 240 lb, so it needs flat ground to wheel around
