How much power do you need for everything you want to run? I see mention of the AC @ 480 watts. Is this just for emergencies only or do you plan on using it quite a bit? Because if you use it a lot it's definitely worth the extra money to get the Honda. EU1000 isn't too much more than that you have budgeted. Whatever you get be sure to drain the carbs before you store it. Nothing worse then coming into a situation where you need your generator and it won't start because of old gas tarnishing the carbs.

I just crank mine up about once a month and let it run for about 5 or 10 minutes. Learned that lesson the hard way when we had 17 inches of snow and no power...
