Great Tool

Would Recommend

Used to rotate tires on two cars. Plenty of power, didn't need to purchase additional sockets, very quiet compared to air. Great price and no batteries to go bad or wear out. Only need extension cord which is more mobile than a compressor. I consider this one of my better purchases. Save $$$ over a compressor and air impact wrench!

Awesome product, works really well.

Would Recommend

Tons of tork, works really well. Wouldn't recommend if you have limited space to work with though. Excellent impact though, can't beat the value with sockets and nice case!!!

Very strong

Would Recommend

Nice that it comes with a case. Sockets aren’t really needed. This blows the socks off my harbor freight Chicago electric one. Much stronger (at least when loosening bolts, which is what I mainly use it for)

Great power and price!

Would Recommend

I broke two breaker bars trying to take the axle nuts off of my 1972 beetle. This gun was able to get them off for me. Great investment. The case is nice and the included sockets seen of good quality.

2008 Hyundai Crank Bolt

Would Recommend

I needed a better impact wrench to remove a Crank bolt for a timing belt job. The Kobalt driver loosened the bolt in 5 seconds. Great tool for home/occasional use.

Quality and value

Would Recommend

Compared to similar impact wrenches by power and features this is a great value. It’s obviously very well constructed and includes a very nice case with sockets. I bought this after returning a cordless product of different brand that would not remove my tractor blade nuts. They practically flew off the shaft with this tool.

Why Didn't I Buy One Sooner!

Would Recommend

After spending way too much time trying to remove the lower front strut bolts on my Town and Country, I bought this impact wrench. Took lots of PB Blaster and a 3' breaker bar to get the left side bolts removed. One application of Blaster and about 20 seconds with this impact wrench and the right side strut was free. Same story with the stabilizer bar links. The wrench itself is pretty hefty, but it works like a charm.

This is a must-buy if you're trying to remove stuck lug nuts!!! I had bent my T-wrench trying to get the nuts off, did it with this in a few seconds!!

Good Investment

Would Recommend

Bought this to remove bush hog blades after going through breaker bar and cheater pipe. However soon after i bought it, I used it to remove deck bearings on my zero turn commercial mower worked great. With the sockets included it was a great deal from Lowes.

Good so far

Would Recommend

I purchased this wrench to replace the Harbor Freight one that came apart on me. This one seems to be a little better built and comes with the case and some impact sockets. Works well out of the box. I did't give it 5 stars because I have only used it a couple of times and only time will tell if it holds up.
