IMHO nothing beats the Honda Generators, they are awesome for quality, dependability, quietness, fuel effiecency, etc. I have the EU2000i now and will be adding the EU3000iSA soon. The 2000 works great for most everything I need when camping (if your going to try to run a A/C unit get the 3000), I want to get the 3000 or the 6500 to use for a back up at home.
