The smaller may be a better option as 13 Amp may be a little more circuit friendly as so would be the weight.

Reviews on Big Sky look much more positive. If it just isn't flat out broken, cold starts seem to be the most common problem which could be addressed with lighter weight oil.

Oil vs oil-free?
