Portable generators are not all they are cracked up to be. During 2 hurricanes in S. Florida when we lost power for 4 days each we used it on fans, lights and refrigrator but it made so much noise we turned it off at night so our neighbors could sleep and we lost food anyway. If I would ever do it again I'd get a Honda which is super quiet. I had to start it every 4 to 6 weeks or it wouldn't start when you needed it because of old gas even with Seafoam in it. You also have to have lots of gallons of gas on hand before the storm hits. I ended up giving my generator to my son and since being here 8 years never had a use for one.
