I need to buy a small generator so i can run one power tool at a time
to rebuild my cabin in Wyoming. This means I need less than 2000
watts.
The higher cost models include Honda at over $800, Yamaha at about the
same and Honeywell at about $650 .
The cheaper models are less than $200 but are made in China.
I expect to rarely use this generator and it would never be needed for
emergency purposes.
The Honeywell at $650 is almost reasonable. The cheap Chinese
ones........................?
So, should I follow my own advice and not buy chinese because when
chinese goods break it always costs more money than the diff in
purchase price? Or, should I buy Chinese and gamble that it will work
long enough to be useful.?

Don't make the mistake of buying the smallest generator you can find.
Pretty soon you will find out that you want to run a couple of things on
the generator and you can't.

I would definitely go for a 2000 if I could... The Honda is still pretty
light and transportable in the 2K model. You can still stick it in the
back seat of a small car if you need to.
