While a larger inverter would allow you to "plug in whatever" I suspect you would run down your small battery bank VERY quickly.
What size battery bank do you have (amp-hrs @12 VDC)?
And, as long as the transfer switch part could supply the total amps @120 VAC you want, as long as you are careful to limit those high amp appliances, you could wire it that way.
Another (good) option would be to wire specific outlets or even half of some outlets from the inverter. Then plug into that part of the outlet when you want inverted power and the other part if you want shore power or generator power.
