I purchased this inverter almost two years ago for installation into my RV. Early on I stress tested it by running two electric space heaters at the same time for the nearly three hours it took to drain the lithium battery bank. Roughly 170 amps continuous, or very close to the 2000 watt rating. The inverter fans cycled on and off but the inverter kept going. In the roughly two years since purchase there's never been a problem with the inverter.
It powers up the trailer microwave no problem. Microwaves can be a problem, they are very inefficient. The one in the trailer is rated at 700 watts but according to the exterior label consumes 1100 watts to make the 700 watts inside. Microwaves also have a huge surge every time the magnetron starts, so it can be hit or miss depending on the specific microwave and inverter combination.
The remote on/switch is handy. When on the inverter does use a noticeable amount of power if left on overnight, but not enough to be a bother to me.
Normally the inverter is silent. The fans only become noticeable, and that's barely noticeable, under a constant heavy load, which in my use is pretty rare.

I would say this is more of an Amazon resale review as this is the second unit I bought from resale that is DOA. This first one never worked, figured was just a bad unit, 2nd one sparked so hard it left a groove in my bat terminal and now won’t accept a charge from my charge controller. I don’t know what the process is on testing these with Amazon resale but they definitely were bad. I don’t know how Renogy would let you all re-sell bad units, looks bad on them
