I considered one of those for a small unit, Bought this similar one, bigger engine, rated at 1200 watt starting, 900 continious.
A year later it still starts easy. It will run my 30 amp converter fine, but if i try it at home, it will not start a 25 cuft GE refrigerator freezer, and yes, I thought it should.
I have used it at 800 watts with a hairdrier, and it seems ok.
I dont know how much I would trust a smaller unit.
I have this one.

Are you comparing 4-cycle inverter generator to 2-cycle "whiner" ???
With refrigerators it makes another story.
Modern, higher end refrigerators are inverter-powered as well.
So 1000W generator should run it.
When you have old fashion fridge with "kicker" motor, you will have the same issue what AC have.
