All things considered. The key word for generators is "quite". Hard to sleep, talk, think, or anything else with a loud motor hammering away.

Should be able to find them (EU2000i) for around $900 + shipping. Several new ones listed on Ebay.

Last fall paid $1072.00 tax included out the door from a Honda dealer. Had second thoughts about ebay or something like that because of warrenty
They wanted another $25.00 to put in oil and start it... say no way

Honda power
Look at Northern Tool. A bunch of their branded generators (Northstar) have Honda power:

I bought mine from a Honda dealer off Ebay with full 2 year warranty. When I took it to another dealer for repairs (well out of warranty) they punched
the S/n in the computer and up popped my name and address.

Remember this an inverter generator
bajalou == I looked at Ebay and the cost of shipping to me brought the price up to dealer cost. Was still in the box and stapled shut

Good call on Wise Sales. I bought a Yamaha 6500 watt water cooled diesel generator from them. The price was $4500 and included freight.

This has been an excellent discussion. I've determined the 2400 is too small but this leads me to what size do I really need and several sites give
tools to evaluate need and Consumer reports has a link for that evaluation as well. It looks like for AC/ refrig, freezer, and a couple of ceiling
fans, etc. ( I threw in AC as the refrig and freezer with a little coffemaker, got me up to 6k)I need 10k. With that thought in mind I've looked at
whole house systems and alternate fuel like propane runs about $2500.oo+ plus installation. This avoids the running out of gas every 5-10 hours, it's
self starting when the power goes off , runs the circuits you preselect, allows the installation of whole house surge protection which with electronic
surge protectors is probably enough.
So I'm shopping for the big boy and so far Guardian looks like the most capable system. Anybody know them?

New Guardian 10k with all circuit breakers, gas connection hose, wiring is available for about $2800.00 or a Briggs and stratton 10k watt start up 7k
watt runnning power for about $2100 at NorthernTool above-so $5000 for a used 5k watt unit is not a good price. Thanks though-- Norm
