Rob,
The Trace SW series was the gold standard for off-grid inverters for many years. The have a quite nice stepped-sine waveform and good surge capabilities. The battery chargers are excellent. We've installed quite a few of them over the years with relatively few problems. These days Xantrex has moved most of their manufacturing to China, and the quality control seems to have suffered a bit. They are actively cooled, vented units so need to be installed in a protected indoor location. Also, they tend to buzz noticeably so people don't usually like them inside their living area. These days I'm using more of the Outback inverters, but if you find a great deal on an SW it would still be a good choice in my opinion. I hope that helps!
