Questions/Opinions on Generators

I own a Honda, but I've heard the Yamahas are similar in quality & quietness. If I did it again, I'd go with a pair of 2000 Watt units vs. a 3000. It's just too darn heavy for me to move (a bit over 130 lbs. dry).

We have a 10 year old Honda e3000is that weighs 147 lbs dry... It's super nice and quiet, but really requires two people or a cart to move around. Works on the first pull, and if the battery wasn't toast it would electric start too. They have a new 3000 that is half the weight and has wheels now.
Doing 2 2000s seems to be a popular choice for good reasons though. It would be nice to have something I could store on a shelf, and move around easily by myself. We only use it for weather related disasters since we always camp FHU right now.
