My wife loves our little 1000 watt Honda too. It powers her hot rollers, her Power Bullet for making breakfast smoothies, the blow drier on low, the rice cooker, the crock pot, even the coffee maker.
Around the house here, I use it out at the barn for charging my tractor battery, lights and a few chargers for battery powered tools. It was a lot cheaper than putting in electrical in the barn for sure. It's light weight means I actually use it compared to the other, heavier gennys I have. I use it at least twice as often as the 2.4Kw Yamaha and many times more than my large 7kw Honda.
