Now, if you've installed a "state of the art HD television" or a "Bluetooth hair dryer" or a "Echo security system".... Well, all bets are off... Otherwise, with a 15 year old air conditioner and a "bottom line microwave" you shouldn't have any problems as long as the voltage is "roughly 60 cycles and 110-125 volts.
Now, if you had the "in-command system" and other sensitive electronics.... well, I'd agree, chances are a contractor generator isn't your best bet...
Seems funny, to me at least, that everyone is "preaching the need for an inverter generator for RV use, but every "high priced S&B" with a Generac standby system is using "contractor generator technology" to run those "million dollar homes" during a power outage.... For most electronics, there isn't a hill of beans difference as far as what the trailer sees and how it works....
