I checked it a few minutes ago and it was $349. When I saw your post I double checked it. Now it shows it for $599. I used a laptop both times. Weird.

my link says $599 also

Champion generators are not "your usual Chinese knockoff". Their headquarters and design facilities are right here in California:

Other than Yamaha, Champion is about the only inverter generator I would buy after Honda.

Here's another Champion 2000 watt stackable inverter generator at a great price:

You must be a Honda fan.

I have only seen comments regarding Champions excellent warranty service, customer service and parts service.

Oh, and by the way I have a Honda 2200/2500 watt, Champion 3000/3500 watt and Northern Tools North Star 4400/5500 watt with Briggs and Stratton Vanguard engine. All excellent generators. I had to replace the carbs on the Honda and North Star but that was my fault.

If your in the market for one, this is a heck of a price. For $60 you can extend the warranty to 6 years

That link is now showing at $599. ??????:?

Did you check link from your smart phone? I checked it from my Iphone and it came up at $599 also, but $349 on my laptop. Not sure why

I just clicked the link and it's $349

"Stackable - The space-saving ParaLINK parallel kit design allows you to connect and stack two 2000-watt inverters to double your output power."

Looking at the pictures, I sure don't see how these can be stacked.

Edit: Answering myself, there's a picture in the Product Brochure that has them stacked. The parallel kit goes between the 2 units, forming a base for the top one on top of the bottom one. Pretty clever, but hope it's stable. Must make for a pretty high CG.

The linked Home Depot page has a link to an illustrated parts list. Kudos to Champion for freely providing that.
