I bought two of the Champion 3500 Watt units while on vacation in the US recently. I fired one of them up today. Starts easy, I don't know whether I would call it quiet or not though. I looked at the Jiang Dong units at Harbor freight and other than the arrangement of the outlets on the front panel these units could pass for twins, same frame, 196 cc engines, muffler and guard look identical, engine, carb, and air cleaner look identical. I made an adapter to go from the 30 amp rv plug to the 30 amp 110 volt twist lock and ran my a/c and microwave off the generator no problem. The breaker on the generator kicked off when I turned on the 1500 watt heater as expected. I expect to use this unit very little and only out in the middle of nowhere so I guess it will be alright.
