I think it to be a greattt deal!  What else can you ask for?  Multi-use in this size appealed to me.  I can run my well and much more on my house.  My 27ft tt and my tools in the field like saws compressor and welder.  Perfect for me.  It surprised me how quiet it was, I expected it to be louder.

I bought the champion 3500/4000 under 500 ,remote start 68 db. I think the hondas run at 65 dbs not enough difference to bother me

Even quieter if you throw it behind the trailer at camp or wherever.

Id be curious to see how the long jevidy of the champion compared to the honda is? 5,10,20,30,years from now?

I am running a Honda 2500 watt for my little 5th wheel. Works great for us. Ours is an industrial model, and is nosier than the camping model. We don't mind it at all though. Runs 14+ hours, 3 gallon tank. Runs longer than the manual said it would on a tank of gas.

I would never argue it is better than a honda. I am a Honda fan.  That said I know they are well made as champion has been making good equipment a long time now. Many reviews over several years praising these.  I would argue that the 3 champions I could buy at the price of Honda would indeed outlast them.

Well then time will tell.

Honda   Just keep it chained down.  Don't ask me how I know

I bought my Craftsman 3500 off craigs list for $125.00. all accessories and cords included. Has ran perfect for about 10 years of use. Not a Honda but I can buy a lot of them!!!

We bought a trailer in 04 and a honda 3000. The honda is bullet proof. No problems at all.

Our Honda powers our whole house, and we use it in elk camp as well. It does great on fuel and is so quiet it just sounds like someone humming. Love it!  Pay the extra money, if you have it, and go with a Honda

5000w is the minimum to do what you want. You're going to have a lot noise unless you go with something of quality like the Honda eu6500. The champion with get you buy but it will be loud.

I own a Honda eu6500IS, at full throttle you can stand next to it and talk quietly and be heard. No BS. Go to a honda dealer and see for yourself. Bring you wallet too cause they cost an arm and a leg, but worth it.

I agree with Iceman. I have had a es6500 for 13 years. It has a radiator and you can barely here it purr. As far as running your home and well. I wired my home for back up power. Live in Enumclaw! unless your well is close to your elect. panel you might have issues with running house  and well at the same time. Make sure you install a UL rated transfer switch for safety reasons. Northern equipment has some good prices and free shipping, Use to be no tax on internet sales.
