Honda EG2800i - 2500 Watt Open Frame Inverter Generator

Was thinking of getting the EU2000 but when I saw thisand the extra power for same price, it was a no brainer! I like that the tank is larger and we can run our Air all night and not have to get up and re-fuel. Slightly heavier but nice solid frame rail to grab and I found very easy to deal with.

This is perfect for short term home backup. Don't waste your money on a whole house backup. I have needed a generator only two times in 15 yrs. This is the right choice.

Was concerned about shipping such an item, however it arrived in perfect condition and on time. Honda fired up on first pull. Had to ad an hour meter and noted that plug replacement may be a bit difficult when the time comes.

We use this generator for outdoor activities and work and it has worked well. When I remember to turn on the fuel line, it starts with one pull. So far it has not even raced to provide sufficient power for all the uses we have had: power saw, power pruner/trimmer power lights and AV equipment. It runs quietly and is efficient on its use of gas. Honda has done it again in keeping with their fine engineering and product design. At 67 pounds, it is easy enough to lift, but be sure to use your legs!
