This WEN 4800 watt RV ready inverter generator stands out as a lower priced alternative to comparable Predator and higher watt WEN models, with enough output and RV focused utility for backup power or camping. The electric start and carbon monoxide detection version is also discounted, and the unit can reportedly be retrofitted for remote start. It is not an inverter, so it is louder and less suited to sensitive electronics like computers and TVs. Propane and dual fuel options offer more flexibility, but they cost more and the dual fuel version is about $94 higher at the moment.
The generator can deliver strong value because it is priced about half of an equivalent Predator option using the same 224cc engine.
The electric-start and CO-detect version can be discounted, and remote-start convenience may be possible via retrofit for RV use.
The propane start experience reportedly worked on the second pull, which can reduce frustration when using propane during outages.
The unit can be a practical RV backup because it is only about 30 pounds heavier while offering more RV-focused functionality.
The generator is not an inverter model, so it can be louder and may not provide clean power for sensitive electronics like computers and TVs.
Propane primary use can be less practical because propane tanks hold less usable fuel than gasoline jugs and propane produces less wattage.
Electric-start models may use an electric choke, so a dead battery can prevent pull-start starting.
WEN may face trust concerns for extended backup use because some buyers associate WEN with cheaper woodworking equipment.

Reviews are slightly lower, and of course its $250 more, but its higher watts, dual fuel and electric start. I don't own either. I have a secondary house on a lake in middle of nowhere that power goes out 3-4 times a year from storms for 4-8hrs. I currently have a a 4kwh Ecoflow out there that I use and am generally happy but considering something a generator to add to that and to charge my wifes tesla if she ever ran it dead. Any input is appreciated on if the $424 one is completely sufficient or if the $250 extra is worth it.
