What made you invest in Kobalt power tools instead of Craftsman/Ridgid/Ryobi/Harbor Freight Brands?

I would assume price was a factor in choosing Kobalt over Milwaukee/Makita/Dewalt, but I’m curious what made you choose them over these other budget brands?

Question about 1/2” Mid-Torque Impact Wrenche

I recently picked up the Kobalt 1/2” impact for $99 at Lowe’s. This came with a 4ah battery and a carrying case.

I noticed, however, that Craftsman has their mid-torque wrench on sale for $99, bare tool only.

I probably know the answer to this, but all of my power tools besides this wrench are in the V20 series. I have multiple 4ah and 2ah craftsman batteries as well.

Is it worth it to return the Kobalt and purchase the Craftsman? I’m showing the Kobalt has 600ft of torque vs 275 for the Craftsman, but all I will really be using it for is changing tires on my vehicles and maybe driving some lag bolts.

Battery Event

I have seen people having issues with the battery events, but I was lucky enough to grab the battery and this inflator for free!

What made you choose Craftsman over Kobalt/Ridgid/Ryobi/Harbor Freight Brands?

Just wonder what made you decide to invest in Craftsman’s lineup of tools vs one of the other similarly-priced tool lines?
