I have 2 of the River 3 that I am using as a UPS. I paid $159 for them and they work flawlessly. I don't think that you could go wrong with either one. If you get the more expensive C300, it has a light that is pretty cool. I don't think a light is worth the extra ~$80, but that is a cool design feature.
It's starting to feel like anker / eufy products where they bait you in the beginning and start to discount more and more and screw the initial backers

These are just my observations.

They use low quality components to be competitive in the lower size price points with Anker and Bluetti, but they've gone too far. The inverter is garbage and noisy as all hell making buzzing noises, the charger makes buzzing and popping noises while charging. I wouldn't even be surprised if the actual AC output is dirty as heck.
In summary, I don't trust any of the River series, and I know the return rate on these things is insanely high due to the large quantity of refurbs they always seem to have for sale. My guess is they just re-package them immediately and list as refurbs without truly fixing why they are being returned (ie crackling and popping circuitry and inverters).
I highly recommend to avoid if possible and go with a competitor product if you need something in this size range. It's a roll of the dice with River series, and I don't like to take chances on power stations
I think feature and spec wise Ecoflow is on the bleeding edge. I only wish I can trust they will never use their technology against me.
