Offering an output of 120 volts, the HW1000i is an inverter generator, so it provides clean power and quiet operation. Also, this four-stroke unit requires only unleaded gasoline and oil. It will run for five hours when the 0.71-gallon tank is full, making it a great option for all your recreational needs. And at just 31 pounds and with built-in handles, it's easy to move and store.
Efficient and Easy to Use
The HW1000i is exceptionally easy to use and comes equipped with Smart Start Instructions to assist with fast starts. To help ensure trouble-free operation, an indicator light will illuminate, and the unit will completely shut down in low-oil conditions. An overload protection indicator light helps preserve the life of the HW1000i, and an economy mode allows you to save fuel and further reduce running sound.
The HW1000i is backed by a two-year warranty.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Great for a while; terrible after six months,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Honeywell HW1000i 1,000 Watt 53cc 4-Stroke Portable Gas Powered Inverter Generator (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this generator to have as an emergency battery charger run through our Xantrex inverter/charger aboard our cruising sailboat. I also wanted to have portable power for low power hand power tools without taking from the ship's battery bank. I wasn't sure if it would run my very fussy, electronically controlled Bosch saber saw because that saw won't run off our on board Xantrex inverter even though computers and other electronics work fine from from the on board 120v power. The Bosch runs perfectly off of the Honeywell 1000i: it must produce a true sign wave output.
It is shipped without oil, so I added the prescribed amount with the little spouted oil container provided (very handy for our 4 stroke 9.8 hp outboard too), added gas, and gave a pull. She started on the third pull and ran smooth and quieter than my old Honda 1000 watt generator. On subsequent tries both hot and cold, she started on the first pull. That's how I reviewed it six months ago. After about 30 hours of use, the picture changed. First, the starter cord broke; warranty wouldn't cover it. Having more pressing projects aboard the boat, I paid a technician to fix it. Then it began to sometimes not start, other times quit after running for between 10 minutes and three hours. This pattern has continued through at least a month of twice weekly use. I have checked everything. When it won't go, it is because it has no spark. Won't bore you with technical details, but I understand small engines, so I checked things thoroughly. Appears to be a problem with the electronic module that controls the primary circuit of the magneto. Parts next to impossible to get. Honeywell certified technicians know less about it than I do. Most have never seen a small Honeywell. I have learned to hate this machine. Should have bought a Honda or Yamaha. Bill Raley

ok... if it works,

This review is from: Honeywell HW1000i 1,000 Watt 53cc 4-Stroke Portable Gas Powered Inverter Generator (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this generator to charge a 12V deep-cycle AGM battery using a 40 Amp charge controller. For that, this generator works just fine, although it's a lot louder than I expected.
I'm giving it two stars because the particular unit I got failed after less than 10 hours of usage. I had it running, and went away for a couple of hours, and when I came back, it had stopped. The oil level was low, so I added some oil, but it simply wouldn't start. I checked everything the manual tells you to check, with no success. I pulled out the spark plug to see if there was a spark, but there didn't appear to be, so the electrical system might've failed. I took it to an authorized mechanic, and hopefully will find out exactly what happened. The bottom line is, if you're buying a generator, you're probably using it in a situation where you need to be able to depend on your gear. I found that I couldn't depend on this generator, so I'm giving it two stars. If I could do it again, I'd probably look for a used Honda EU 1000i or 2000i.

Not bad for the price,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Honeywell HW1000i 1,000 Watt 53cc 4-Stroke Portable Gas Powered Inverter Generator (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
It pretty much does what it says. A bit louder than I had hoped, but not so loud that I wouldn't want to use it. The comparable Honda is quieter, but much more money. I bought it for camping and it fits that role fine. Easy to carry with one hand, even when fueled. Perhaps I should have gotten the 2000 watt version so I could power my refrigerator in an emergency, but that is larger and uses more fuel, and I had camping in mind, (and it costs more) so I chose the smaller version. First start took about 8 pulls, only needs one or two pulls thereafter (unless you run it dry).
I had seriously considered one of the cheapo (~ $130) two cycle 1000 watt portables, but I can't make myself believe that any two cycle would be as quiet as this unit. Perhaps someone with access to both could offer up a comparison? Maybe if I didn't want to use it for camping (but if that were the case, I'd want a larger generator anyhow).
