Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 8-Amp 1/4-in Drive Corded Impact Wrench

Works as advertised

Got the anode rod out of my water heater with no problem. Way better than a socket wrench and breaker bar.

Great Impact Driver

This impact drive works great. You’d be hard pressed to find a driver with the same quality and value!

Works well thus far!

Worked well so far for me. A little large and clunky, that's the only drawback I've had with it to this point.

Good

Bought this a few weeks ago in preparation to replace my lower control arms. Lug nuts came off no problem and the bolts I had to remove came off pretty easy too. So far I’m happy with it. The sockets that came with it is a nice extra too.

No go with this one

I purchased this one in hopes of ridding my self of a compresser. I am sure this will handle your impact needs though I don't know for sure. Like another review some one else had the problem of loading sockets. It is very frusting and nearly impossible to load sockets and equally impossible getting Them off to trade to another size. So I took it back and traded to the top air wrench they had. That trade had everyone confused as the item showed out of stock at the store. But for a $120 they w...

Powerful

This wrench is extremely powerful. Be sure to hold on or say goodbye to your wrist.

Paid for itself on first use

My son has a Mini Cooper and all four wheel bearing hubs needed to be replaced. Before I bought this wrench, I struggled for a full weekend to get out brake set screws that I stripped and corroded bolts that secured the hubs. Nothing budged. I relented and took it to the shop and paid almost $300. That was just for the rear. The next weekend I set out to do the front bearings, which were like the rear but also included a 32mm axle nut. I figured well, if I'm spending money, I may as well get a t...

Kobalt is Powerful Impact Wrench

The price could be lower but I guess you get what you paid for. It came with 7 heavy duty sockets while other corded brands $100 only give you 4 pieces. I got tired of removing lug nuts manually for so many years so I decided to take it easy on myself. This unit is very powerful, I almost mess up my car's new oil filter cap with 36" socket. The looks durable and heavy but it's comfortable if you use both hands.

Impact Wrench

I was amazed at the power of this electric impact wrench. It was well worth the cost!

Fantastic

This thing is a absolute beast. Highly recommended. I purchased it for DIY auto repairs. Removed lug nuts with ease. I bought it on sale for $129. Can't beat it. You will not be disappointed.

Impact wrench

This wrench did the job so quickly we were set up in just minutes instead of the usual 15 minutes to crank up our camper and level it. We are well pleased with the product

Strong Impact tool, but tough to control

Brought tool to drive large ground screws. Right from the start, it was clear it was not the right tool for the job. As soon as the trigger is pulled, the tool goes to max speed. Very tough to control. I returned the tool.

Works great!

I purchase this Impact wrench for various reasons. The main ones being not having space in the garage for a compressor that would have the driving power that this wrench haves, it seems like batteries are always going bad and getting tired of having to use a breaker bar every time one of our cars go to a tire shop. They use a impact wrench and over tight the nuts and I have to come home and loosen them up and tight them up using a torque wrench. I just got some new wheels and tires and I was ab...
