Best Farm Generator:
I purchased this generator for my farm. So far it has proven outstanding when called on. I have my well, barn, pasture electric, refridgeration, etc. on it and it performed like a champ. Last winter we were one of the only homes with almost full power after an ice storm, and I attribute this to Honda technology. Had all the neighbors over for breakfast, since most of them did not have power to cook.
Ominous start:
I ordered the unit and it took 26 days to arrive. Assembly was straightforward and the fit and finish was fine. Hooked the unit up to a manual switch and it was underpowered for the house. After much effort, it was clear that the generator pumped out a solid 100 volts ac, not 120. It couldn't even run a handtool at full power. HMMM.... 10,000 watts, eh? Next came Porter Cable NATIONAL service. It took them 48 hours to respond and when they did, it was basically to say its not their problem -try the local... more info
Great Generator:
This generator does everything in the house at the same time; well, heat, washer, dryer, 2 Refrigerator, 1 Freezer and all of our lights.

So I knew that 19500 watts surge would work great. Sure enough we lost power 5 weeks after getting the generator and in doing so I switched... more info
Excellent generator:
I needed a generator for farm use that would also be big enough to power my home in Jackson, MS in the event of another weather disaster. I have a large home powered by two separate AC units, so required 10,000 watts minimum. Also, after conferring with over a dozen people who purchased different generators after Katrina, I knew it had to be powered by Honda. None of local warehouse stores (Home Depot, Lowes, etc.) carried anything nearly big enough so my internet research focused on Honda-powered... more info
