I decided against the propane generator when I found that it consumed 0.4 gal per hour. I would blow through a LPG tank of fuel in only 11 hours of operation. While traveling it is easier to refill a gas can than a RV type propane tank.
I ended up not getting a generator and put the money into a 200 Watt solar setup instead. It never needs to be turned on or off, cannot get stolen, and never needs to be refueled or repaired.
We use the microwave when we are hooked to shore power but the rest of the time we do not need 110AC.

We use a $22 percolator and use a premium grind of coffee and the end result it two steps above what we can get in a diner and 3 steps above Starbuck's. It is not the coffee maker but the coffee that makes the difference unless someone is hauling around an espresso machine.
