Don't have a Champ or ever owned one but checking around, the company has a fairly good reputation. From the checking I've done, while these are Chinese made, Champ appears to have their own mfg facility there. Looking at their Honda clone engine you will find the company name stamped into the valve cover and case into the carb.
I would not write them off as just another Chinese importer. And with Costco's return policy, Champ generators deserve fair consideration.
The noise level is typ for a contractor style generator. My >$3k Honda water cooled genny has similar SPL rating.
