Good deal on this particular generator, big downside is Woot's return policy if something goes wrong.

Is the return policy different for this from other Woot items? I've had very good experience since Amazon took over and implemented some self-service return request and prepaid label emailed (not quite as easy as Amazon). I'm not sure if that's because I'm a prime member.

I see, "HEY! THIS BOX IS ORANGE FOR A REASON! IT'S IMPORTANT YOU READ THIS FIRST! This thing requires fuel, so it can't be returned to Woot. Once you buy one, it's yours. Warranty claims can still go through the manufacturer, of course. THANK YOU FOR READING ORANGE BOX CONCLUDES NOW."

Woot usually does have a good return policy but on this it looks like if something is wrong with it they say to go through the manufacturer. In comparison if you bought it from Amazon they also do not take returns but say they will replace or refund damaged generators.

Good to know, I know Amazon will also not allow return of items with lead-acid battery like UPS or in my wife's case, she bought a lead-acid car battery jumper despite me having bought her a lithium-ion one a few years ago.

Meh.
This is not intended for natural disasters or serious worksites. It's aimed at portability. Great for an RV or skoolie.

? Smaller is better for most uses as it has superior efficiency and less noise. Will run most all construction hand tools including SDS Max hammer drills, Miter saws, 7 inch angle grinders ect. I have the duel fuel version and its my go-to generator for 95% of my needs including a window A/C. The only time I need my larger generators is for welding, plasma cutting or my 3 HP air compressor.

Most generators have a no return policy once it has gasoline out into it. Same goes for home depot and lowes

Unlikely. Measure how much current your pump draws when it starts up and then you will know.
