I had the champion from Costco, it was a great price. I wanted to use the microwave, and it would not even turn it in. tried the next Costco model, but when turn on microwave the rpm went way up and would shut down after about 2 min. tried the Honda 2x the price, and can run microwave ok. still revs up, but does not shut down. none of the 2000 will run an A/C.
I loved my champion, and really don't use the microwave that often. if not needing microwave then 1st choice is champion 2000 watt. it was just as quiet as my Honda
