Looks like a good bargain for a small generator. 2-stroke means you'll have to mix gas and oil and I'd be concerned about the quailty of the output - Electronics don't like dirty electricity (varying voltage.)

800 watts isn't much power, make sure you've done the math to make sure it will maintain everything you need.

Also, the two stroke might be really loud compared to the 4 stroke. Nice price, though.

If you can swing it, this one's on sale and it's free shipping. $50 more though. 4 stroke, 2000watts.

I have always considered Harbor Freight and their Chicago Electric (house) brand to be "disposable" power tools. They are well purposed for a one time use. I would have some concern if I couldn't pick the time though. Trying to start a 2-stroke engine that's been sitting for a year or more is tough enough, but adding HFs propensity for the lowest quality would really be problematic...

I agree w/ dlhirst 100%-
