I was looking at between a 12 (Gillette) & 14 (Kohler) kW generator. I squeak by on a 5k right now. I seem to lose lower for more than 16 hours multiple times a year. Last Oct, I lost power for 11 days. A month earlier, 4 days.
I like that they are US made. Not sure on the Subaru engine though.
We have a high water table, so the sump pump is almost always running, a 1.5HP well pump, fridge and freezer and a couple lights are the "must have". The issue is the sump pump is a 1/2hp. When it kicks on with the fridge, freezer or well pump on, my poor Coleman Generator struggles. A couple times it has tripped out, of course I'm in the shower at the same time......
They do suck down the gas, although I have a 500 gallon LP tank I use for the range/over and a tankless hot water heater, so it isn't a complete issue. Compared to 13-15 or gallons of gasoline the Coleman burns in 24 hours; and the mindset that I wouldn't have to worry about having 3 inches of water in the cellar if power was lost and I'm not home, it doesn't worry me too much.
