The 3,250-Watt ETQ TG32P12 surges to 4,000 watts. Its oversized muffler makes it relatively quiet, and since it has a wheel kit, it's portable despite its hefty weight (over 110 pounds). The ETQ TG32P12 has two regular GFCI outlets, unlike most portable generators in this price range, as well as a heavy-duty twist-lock outlet for a 240-volt appliance like a water heater. If you want a portable generator that will run virtually everything in a medium-sized home during a power outage, the 6,200-watt Briggs & Stratton 30242 (*Est. $1,000) is an alternative recommended by experts.

We found owner reviews of the ETQ TG32P12 at Amazon.com and HomeDepot.com, and GaltTech.com names it a top-rated small portable generator.
