If your looking for something serious to handle (most) of your home during an outage and don't mind spending some money go with the Honda or Generac INVERTER generators. They don't run as loud as a freight train and are preferred for electronics, etc...Yes they are expensive but you get what you pay for. 6,000 or 7,000 watts won't light up a home like a train station but it will run all your important things during an outage...There's a time and a place for the crap from a dollar store if your investing in such an item a power loss during 20 degree weather shouldn't be that time.
