What Customers Are Saying
The generator is praised for its exceptional quietness, fuel efficiency, and ability to power a wide range of household appliances and electronics without issue. It is described as durable, reliable, and able to run for long periods without problems. While it is more expensive than some other models, reviewers feel the quality and performance justify the higher price. The only common complaints are that it is quite heavy and could benefit from including a wheel kit as standard.

Would RecommendI've only had this generator for a month, but I love the ease of having to just turn it on with a key, no more pull-start! It's quiet & seems pretty fuel efficient.

Home Backup Generator
Would RecommendBought this for home power backup because it had great ratings from customers on a number of different sites. It is very quiet, especially once the eco-throttle is engaged. I would recommend getting the wheel kit because though it is possible for one person to lift, it is quite heavy. The staff at Issaquah Honda Kubota were very helpful preparing it, explaining the correct operating and maintenance procedures, and helping get it into my vehicle. The electric start is good, and having a pull-cord...

The Best Quiet Inverter Generator!
Would RecommendI've only owned this generator for a few months, but it puts out enough juice to run the AC in our 30amp camper trailer, and is the quietest inverter you'll find. Its pricier than the competition, but the peace of mind knowing its the best with a Honda name is worth it.

Great Quiet Generator
Would RecommendWe got our generator just in time. Lost power in our RV for the night. Kept everything running with no effort. My husband was very impressed with how easy it started and that it ran all night and only used 1/4 tank of fuel.

16 yrs and 13 yrs old and still running strong
I purchased my first EU3000IS in Lake Charles, LA after Hurricane Rita in 2005. It ran for 2 weeks straight with services performed every 4 days (~ 100 hrs). Purchased my 2nd one in Baton Rouge just before Hurricane Gustav in 2008. Both units ran for 10 days straight, again servicing both every 4 days. They have since been used many times for storms, tailgate parties, and at camp sites with no power. I had both of them serviced in 2019 at a dealer in Baton Rouge and were told that they were...

home backup generator
Would Recommendwanted a backup generator for my new home living in Texas for first time. I'm not a handy man at all so was first reluctant to buy but glad i did. Very easy to use with clear video instructions and very quiet.

Use strictly for Travel Trailer - Boondocking.
Would RecommendI’ve had my IE3000 for 7 years and use it for running our trailer air conditioning, tv and basic appliances in our trailer…. I love this Generator. It is very quiet and fuel efficient. Here is the problem. If the temperature is over 100’ the Generator randomly stops running . If we are camped at elevation over 6k feet and it’s hot outside the Generator won’t support our air conditioner. I have over 1500 hours and it has been routinely maintained which by the way is very easy

Back up for home & Camping
Would RecommendI bought a Honda because they are the best. I have not had a chance to use my new EU3000is at this time however I already have piece of mind that I have a back up if I ever lose power at my home. Also it is light enough to take camping.

Super quiet and smooth running!
Would RecommendI use my generator as a portable power source for audio PA equipment with my band. It's a game changer for remote performances!

great back up power
Would RecommendI've purchased this for back up power for medical equipment, living in a retirement community, noise level was important and this unit really delivers.

The best power generator
Would RecommendI use my gen for emergency only. The power grid. In PR is weak especially in huracane season.

The quality I was hoping for
Would RecommendI purchased this to power my RV. I paid 3 times that of the competition. This machine is at least 3 times the quality of the competition. It is great to have a quality generator I know I can count on. It is as quiet, and smooth running as anyone could hope for. Well worth the investment. "Quality only hurts once, cheap hurts every day" I say. The competition has a bunch of features I could not care less about, so when I rate features "Fair", that's not bad. This machine is designed to do w...

Honda Quality - Perfect Start-up & Quiet
Would RecommendI live near the Texas Gulf Coast where storms and hurricanes come often with subsequent power outages ranging from hours to days, and got tired of losing fridge food and sleeping in the heat when power was cut. I did a lot of research on generators (all brands) and I kept coming back to the Honda brand. Although on the expensive side when compared, you get what you pay for, so I went for quality over cost. I’ve only owned my EU3000is for 1 day, but very happy with it right out of the box. I add...

Exceptional generator
This Honda generator starts easily, is super quiet and provides enough power for A/C lights and more in our car hauler. I highly recommend this generator. It's a Honda after all!

Great Back up Generator- residential use
Would RecommendWe have had this generator for almost four years. It has been great during power outages. My family loves how quiet it is. We have mostly used it to keep the fridge, some fans and lights running, and to charge phones, in order to save in fuel. After almost four years, the only problem we have had is that it is, currently, spilling the fuel.
