Ratings & Reviews for Honda Eu 3000 Starting / 2800 Running Watt Gasoline Single Fuel Inverter Generator

Generator

This generator is the greatest. It starts every time with no problem. It serves our purpose for it so well. Thanks for producing a great product.

Fantastic Generator

This review is coming from a longtime owner. You rarely get the reviews after 3 or 6 months. Well you’re getting a 10 year review. I have used my EU3000is for camping (small RV, w/ a 13000 BTU AC unit, refrigerator and lights etc). It has worked flawlessly. I’ve used it to power numerous instrument amplifiers and a PA system when my band plays small gigs and I’ve used it in both winter and summer power outages at my house. I keep it stored where it’s dry and have the the cover on it. I run ou...

Electric start

Does not start electrically ,too heavy only have one duplex receptacle too much money for the price that cannot support 2 different appliances.

Used it for rv, and home refrigerators.

This is my second one of these Honda 3000 gens. I had one mounted on a cargo rack on the back of my 30’ travel trailer from 2013–2024. (Got rid of camper in 2024). The gen was awesome. I put 1” thick rubber pads under the 4 corners, and you didn’t even feel or hear it when you were inside the rv. It was a barely perceptible “reassuring sound”. Quieter than a cat purr. It was great never having to worry about an electric problem, or camping out in the middle of nowhere in total comfort. It ran th...

Honda Generator

Use is for residential outstanding product well built👍

Great backup home generator

Great generator for home use with electric easy to start easy to store

Off grid, solar supplement power, battery charging

These EU3000is generators are the reliable standard. For my purposes I wish it didn’t mix the exhaust with the cooling air before exiting the housing. It causes exhaust particles and blowby to accumulate inside the outer housing, and it makes it difficult to vent the exhaust only, out of a generator shed. It’s also very heavy. But it’s quite reliability was more important.

Great Generator until it was not after 3 mos

I used the generator at my camp (10-20 hrs on weekends) to run ceiling fans, lights, television and occasional power tool. It worked flawlessly the first 2.5 months, but then it literally quit. I checked the easy things like oil, spark plug and air filter which were all fine. I'm scheduled to have it in the repair shop next week, so I will update my review after it gets serviced. If it gets back to original operating form I will give it an improved rating.

Camp generator

It is used to back up our solar power at camp. And a shout out to Aaron in Service Dept for all his help.

EU3000

I use this generator primarily to power my camper. It can run the AC and recharge the house batts at the same time. It is quieter than the pair of Honda 2000 that I run in parallel and has a much larger fuel tank.. Only down side is that it is a little heavy for one person to move alone. I also like the fact that the label states it was made in Japan not like some of Honda's other generators. Wish they had added an hour meter to it to make maintenance easy to time out.

Primary Generator for my remote recreation cabin

IHair drt use this generator as my primary power source, It runs my 12 volt battery charger, shallow well pump. Microwave, and hair dryer .Excellant unit

Running great after a fuel mod

I use this generator with my camper at about 8500 foot elevation. It has performed very well. The dealer in Sheridan, Wyoming has been the best experience with a dealer.

A Worthy Investment

Used for home back-up power. Sufficient output but I manage to essentials during an outage. Can't run everything with 3000 watts. Superbly quiet and fuel efficient. Very reliable if you maintain it. A bit heavy; the wheel kit helps. This is still the best in its class, like many Honda products.

All the Power I Need for Off Grid Camping

I load my EU3000is into the back of my pickup when we hit the road with our 25 ft Airstream so if we stop someplace with electricity, we can run everything we need including Air Conditioning. It fits nicely under my tonneau cover at the back of my pickup bed so all I have to do is roll back the tonneau and plug it in. Starts right away, quiet, and sips gasoline. I also have an EU7000is for back up house power and it is also great.

Great generator

I use my generator to power our camp. Love the electric start. Had it for a year and no problems.

Great Camping generator

I have owned the generator for 1 year. I use it to power my 35 foot fifth wheel trailer. Plenty of power to run everything (A/C, TVs, Microwave, Satelight and lights) at once. The generator is well constructed and easy to preform preventive maintenance.

Reliable clean power 👌

Runs reliably and starts every time. Everything I could ask for.

Amazingly quiet and powerful

I have a 6500 construction generator and I have an on board RV generator but both are very loud and really not too dependable. I have a Honda 650 W small generator but it’s not big enough to run an air conditioner on my RV, so I decided to give the 3000 chance Into my satisfaction. It works exactly the way I would expect it to quiet yet powerful enough to run my air conditioner, and my computer at the same time.

Best home back up generator.

I use this for home back up power during storms and hurricanes in NW,Fl.Also for a power source when doing yard maintenance/projects.

Great for camping.

Works great for what I need it for. But, the battery died and had to by a new one. Was only 5 months new. Only complaint i have. Factory said was under warranty, but repair shop said NO. Only complaint i have.
