Hi all,
I purchased my 3500W Champion about two years ago for my Adirondack camp after reading about all the satisfied posts here. I too am very happy with my gen sets performance.
I do however have a question. My local Tractor Supply has Champion 5000 watt generators (#41115) on sale at a reasonable price ($449.) I was thinking about getting one for the house when power goes out.
Has any one heard anything about the reliability of these larger units? If as good as my 3500 I'd be tickled pink. :)
My 3500W Champion unit stays at my camp so having a 5,000 watt at home would run most of what I'd need to be happy with no power.
Here is the unit on sale.
