HEHE If you post that question, you'll get the same type response as you'd get by asking which is better, Dodge, GM or Ford....
Sams Club is liquidating their champion 2KW inverter generators around this area. They are about the same noise level and electrical output as Honda, have a pretty good reputation and about half the price normally, on clearance for $299 around here which makes them 1/3 the honda price. Champion seems to have a pretty good reputation so that's a consideration if you're looking to upgrade to smaller generators that can be used in tandem to power a bigger load. They do the same thing Honda does with piggybacking.
