There are tons of these all around, so If wait a few weeks for the next drop at least.

Are these worth it? For a car wash maybe?

600 PSI .8 GPM is very low. Fine for soaping, but don't expect to be able to wash off anything besides surface grit.

Ideally you'd want to be somewhere in the range of 1.5-2k PSI, 1.5+ GPM. That'll allow you to use the widest tips and cover surface area very quickly.

This is no better than the old thumb over the end of a hose trick. Save your money.

I'm guessing the Brickseek issue with Lowe's is fixed now (was showing 0 in stock for everything not too long ago)?
Showing 16 of these in stock at this price at the store nearest me. Could be a go at half that price.
Btw, I started reading reviews for it, and they all seemed to be for a backpack sprayer (not this).
Typical Lowe's website craftsmanship there.

The title is incorrect. This is not a pressure washer, instead a power cleaner. It will be slightly better than any hose nozzle out there, but far from even an electric pressure washer.

I have one of these. It is horrible and the trigger issue is really frustrating. It is slightly a step up from a jet spray setting on a nozzle. I've been waiting for Lowe's to get rid of them and return mine for a full refund with the Kobalt 5 year warranty. If they can't replace it they'll give you a full refund. If it goes to $49 would be worth it for the battery if you have 40v tools otherwise don't expect much.
Also note on the reviews most are not even for the pressure cleaner giving it a false 4 star rating. Shame on Lowe's.

This isn't going to pressure wash anything.

I agree in the approach buying it for the battery

I bought this in April since it was on sale and I needed a battery anyway. It is not a super powerful washer, almost about what my hose gets with a nozzle. It does have a soap attachment but it does not do a deep clean. Battery is good though and fits my other kobalt garden stuff

I know the feeling. Having added Hart 20 and 40v (leaf vac) to my collection just this fall of Ego, Ryobi 18v, Ridgid, and M12 collection... And I'm probably forgetting one or two others.

10-33 at all of the stores by me. Five out of six stores marked down to this price, one still at $149.99.

Actually, they're $74.47, not .99... Does anyone know Lowe's new .xx pricing structure? Does .47 = 47 days until next mark down, or???
