Why are Onan generators more expensive?
The Onan portables are designed for heavy duty commercial use, where long life and reliability are very important. To meet these objectives, it is necessary to use only the best components, which does raise the cost of the product. This also allows Onan to provide the longest warranty available for portable generators (3 years) and the option to purchase two years of additional warranty at a reasonable retail cost of $75.
