almost pulled the trigger on this one—had it sitting in my Amazon cart, ready to buy, especially with their warning that only 8 units were left in stock. But heads up:
This model isn't an inverter generator. The power it outputs isn't "clean" (it generates electricity directly from the spinning engine, resulting in "dirty" or unstable voltage with fluctuations and wobbles). That can potentially damage, overheat, or outright fry sensitive electronics like laptops, TVs, or smart appliances unless you connect them through a reliable UPS, a high-quality surge-protecting power strip, and solid cabling.
On the flip side, an actual inverter generator acts like a built-in smart filter: It produces raw power first, converts it to DC, then inverts it back to smooth, stable AC that's as clean as what comes from your wall outlet. All that said, this is an absolute bargain for the right scenario—like powering tools, basic appliances, or non-sensitive gear during outages.
Just not ideal for my needs. For comparison, it's listed over $1,200 at Walmart.

Amazing deal! This should power most homes(not you with the McMansion) especially if you have a soft start on your HVAC unit. Duel fuel sealed the deal

A lot of people claim their non-inverter generator ran the whole house fine.
I'm with you, though, as my UPSes would likely freak out because of the unclean power.

I have the big brother (13k) and despite 2 week long outages in its first year, nothing has been fried. The fact that it "can" does not mean that it "will". Whole house interlock, including a 6 ton A/C with a soft start.
Get a 50amp plug installed directly into your main box. Powers an entire house regardless of inconsistencies.
I have 5 UPSses around the house that wouldn't be happy with the generator. I think I'll spend the extra $ to get a tri-fuel inverter (if my wife would let me).

Also wish this was tri-fuel at $700.

I'm with you, though, as my UPSes would likely freak out because of the unclean power.
It seems the $1k 9KW peak tri-fuel inverter is the best deal at the moment.
