Buying advice

When choosing a gas generator, consider the total wattage you need for your appliances, fuel type preference (gasoline, diesel, dual-fuel), runtime at a given load, noise level for home use, and portability if you need to move it. Also weigh the cost of maintenance and the availability of spare parts in your area.
