I know my ears as they hear generators while walking through a campground and it's truly amazing how quiet those Hondas are.

Same old story - you get what you pay for. ;) In the case of Honda's EU inverter series it's a proven, dead reliable genset that given proper care will serve it's owner for thousands of reliable hours. Should it ever need parts and/or service it's readily available at any Honda powersports dealer here in Canada or in the US. This series of inverter gensets has also been around long enough now that finding a really good used one with low hours at 2/3rds the cost of a new one is quite easy - I've done it twice now myself and when I later decided to sell I recouped all my cost, in fact the second one I sold for more than I paid for it. :B

Low up front cost is only part of the story when buying a genset. ;)
