Gasoline and dual-fuel (gasoline and propane) inverter generators up to about 7,500 W sold new in the US for portable use. Conventional non-inverter generators, home standby generators, battery power stations and measured noise, fuel-economy or reliability rankings are outside this catalogue. This catalogue gives no electrical connection, transfer switch or installation advice; follow the manufacturer's manual and a qualified electrician where the manual requires one.

Questions to check before buying	WEN's 51-decibel figure states a quarter load but no measuring distance, and WEN publishes no quarter-load run time. The manual read is dated 2021-08-19; a later production change would not be reflected in it. The 56235i without a CO sensor is a separate SKU with its own UPC and is not covered by this record.
