Not the lowest it's ever been, but lowest it has been in about a year, according to the three camels.
I have this same gen, paid $407 about a year ago. Running on propane only, it saved me more than its cost in food spoilage during the power outages from hurricane Ian back in Florida east coast.
20lb propane tank yielded 22h+ with a few lbs left over by the time power came back. Got us through those 4 or 5 days no problem. Kept a chest freezer, full sized fridge, some fans running and saved a lot of food. Even boiled water a few times with an electric kettle which was probably maxing it out but it had no issues. It is very quiet and my neighbors said they never even heard it, even though we are all fairly close together.
Watch some vids on starting with propane if you are new to running on propane. Basically you have to prime the pump, so to speak, with a few slow pulls before doing a full pull or two, to start. I personally never had any issues starting on propane.
Be aware of max running watt diffs between gas and propane, and factors such as altitude. Amazon question and answer section has a lot of useful info and plenty of good YouTube vids out there on this very model.
Anyhow, it's a great product and the low maintence and ease of use with propane has been awesome. 🙂👍

DUAL FUEL COMPROMISE: If you intend to burn propane only then consider waiting for the propane-only versions which will be released soon. Propane capability as an add-on to a gasoline generator is a compromise. The full benefit and efficiency of propane as a fuel can't be realized as an add-on.
MAINTENANCE CHALLENGE: Adding the LP control, regulator, extra hoses and a bulky dual fuel carburetor severely cramps the space inside these small enclosed generators limiting access. Replacement cost of the dual fuel carburetor is far higher than a regular carburetor. Neglect in not draining all of the gasoline out after use can quickly lead to clogging corroding and an expensive repair.

...so long story, short, I bought this. I'll keep the other one when we have projected longer outages, but for the running volume, portability and built-in inverter, this seems to fit the bill perfectly.
Thanks OP.
Edit: Looks like the User Manual even recommends using a surge protector at a minimum for sensitive electronics.

Something is defective there, the AC-DC power supply typically doesn't care much about power quality and has a very wide voltage range
A pure sine wave vs a modified sine wave absolutely makes a difference for a lot of stuff. The cheaper non inverter type generators are all modified sine.

Non-inverter generators still create a normal sine wave and almost all of the modern ones are voltage-regulated. The problem is that under load their frequency can vary substantially whereas inverter generators are much better at keeping a consistent 60hz.

OP's whole point is really moot though isn't it? Run generator, plug in true sine wave UPS, plug sensitive electronics into UPS. Generator gives power to the UPS, UPS keeps everything in check.

Most ups can do avr and you benefit from power conditioning all day everyday. Then on the rare occasion you're using your generator it's fixing the power also.
Ups for electronics and whatever generator you need for load.
I have inverter but I bought it for sound levels and less for power cleanliness.
If you have stuff that requires a true sine wave you probably know it and probably already have a power conditioner of some type.
Everything else the ac to DC convertor does a good enough job
