I thoroughly researched this several years before buying a 20 KW Kohler in 2014.
The local Generac dealer was great and the local Kohler dealer was awful but I bought the Kohler anyway, knowing that I could do my own service and repair work after warranty if necessary. I also established a relationship with the nearby Kohler distributor who helps me when I have questions.
I've had no problems with my unit.
