What Customers Are Saying
The 20-gallon air compressor offers good value for light-duty tasks like inflating tires and running small air tools. However, it is notably louder than advertised, taking over 20 minutes to reach maximum pressure. Some users have also reported reliability issues, including leaks, stripped parts, and the compressor running continuously without shutting off.

CRAPPED OUT
This compressor was LOUD and crapped out after only 2 years of light use. Will not buy again. My old off-brand compressor from Harbor Freight lasted over 10 years and my smaller Craftsman compressor from 1986 is still going. I thought Kobalt was a quality product - WRONG!
Not depndable
First one a bought broke down within 2 weeks of use. Lowes replaced it with same model . Just after the warranty ran out .. 1yr Motor failed . Will never buy Kobalt again.
Keep looking

Does the job is supposed to do good price on it and I’m enjoy using it

There are quieter ones on the market but if i'm working in a large area or another room, the sound hasn't bothered me. It seems to take longer to fill the tank compared to our other air compressors. So far, i am pleased with it. It fits in a ti...
