Hurricane season is upon us here in Florida. I spent way too much time picking out a generator and probably too much time talking about how/why I ended up with the iGen2200.

Prices seem to fluctuate greatly as I've seen it anywhere from $370 to $520. Generators from Champion, Generac, Wen, Ryobi, and Predator in this class will likely operate similarly and if you have the cash and depend on your generator then check out the similar Hondas (at twice the price).
