11,000 starting, 8,500 running watts on gasoline
9,500 starting, 8,000 running watts on propane
8,400 starting, 6,800 running watts on natural gas
I can't speak to the long-term reliability, but the unit seems very well built and so far has fired up perfectly every time I've turned it on. Also seems relatively easy to get into and work on if anything does come up.
1. Closed frame inverter meaning better fuel efficiency, quieter, and safe for sensitive electronics
2. High power for an inverter generator
3. Tri fuel capability
4. Sams club return policy whereas most stores (HD, Lowes) don't even take returns on opened generators
Although might not be the right generator for everyone:
1. As @chuck4rooke mentioned, the sustained power outlet under your chosen fuel will be much less than 11,000 watts. If you need more power, you can get non-inverter units with more power for the same price or you can buy 2 of these to run in parallel.
2. If your intention is to run on gas or propane, you're paying a huge premium over the $900 GMiaed at sams club for only somewhat more power.

The westinghouse is not an inverter and painfully loud though

Probably not worth changing your plans over but if the numbers were a little closer the might edge the generac up a bit.

The whole home generator folks will basically take the total power draw of everything and add it all up, add some margin, and quote you that system - which is often WAY overkill. I'm a slick-deals kinda guy, if we're in an emergency, I can toggle things so I'm not running the A/C, stove, oven, washer / dryer, hair-dryer all at once.

I have an 11kw traditional gen that I can plug into an exterior outlet that goes to an interlock. I do have NG but it's not worth the tradeoff for me - you take a huge kw hit from gas to NG. The upside is never running out of fuel and NG burns much cleaner.
