This generator is fairly quiet, light weight(60lbs), and starts well. I have used a microwave, radio, and portable DVD player at the same time with no issues.
However,the generator could not run the 13.5 BTU air conditioner at first. I contacted Kipor Service but recieved little useful informatin. Further research indicated my AC needed a hard start kit in addition to the generator to acheive the starting amps (54amps). After installing the hard start kit I can now run my AC with the Kipor 2600W - my wife is happy too.
The only thing to be noted is that my generator did not come the plug covers as shown. Kipor service has not responded back - yet.
