Anyone have any experience with portable dual fuel (gas/propane) generators?

I’d like a generator to run a Vaporfire 100, fridge and 2 medium sized chest freezers in the event of a power failure. Also might be nice to be able to run the central air AC in the event of a summer storm. We very rarely lose power and when we do it’s generally only for an hour or less but 2 years ago (before we had a wood furnace) we were out for several hours and it was below zero F and very winding outside and the house dropped to 45 before power came back on. Can’t image the people in these hurricanes and tornadoes losing power for days or even weeks.
I really like the thought of running dual fuel. I could add a hookup off the propane line running into the house and connect right outside the house and be tapped into the 1000gal propane tank. I also like the ability to move it around and run gas if need be. The reviews seem good but wanted to get some other opinions.
