Community Reviews

Kobalt's Gen4 40-volt blower looks like a strong value for light yard cleanup, especially if you already own Kobalt 40-volt batteries. The 4.0 Ah kit price is unusually low for a blower, battery, and charger, and the tool is described as plenty powerful for walkways, car drying, and general leaf clearing. It also gets praise for being quieter and far better than cheap 20-volt Amazon blowers. The main caution is battery life, since the pack can drain quickly and may be less suited to heavy, all-day use. It fits best as a convenient, budget-friendly blower for smaller jobs and existing 40-volt owners.

Is this sufficient to dry the water after a car wash? Any blower recommendations for a car wash? Lol

In my experience, NO handheld blower will equivocate performance with carwash blower. Different beasts. 😀

Anything over 450cfm will PUSH the water off the car and leave you with minimal towel drying. I use an inexpensive Chinese brand I got off Amazon it claims 550cfm and uses two 21v batteries. I only get one blow dry with minimal towel drying. Air drying is best for car drying to avoid swirls and scratches. I would think and am tempted to get this one (bcs the battery will last longer than the two 21v) for car drying and as bonus for yard work.

I have the Kobalt 40V backpack tank sprayer, so I'm buying this instead of the 80V version. I have a heavily wooded yard, so I don't have any fantasies of this replacing my 900CFM gas-powered RedMax, but I hope it's powerful and quiet enough for doing some light work around walkways without jeopardizing my marriage.

If you have a professional ceramic coating on your car, yes.

Idk what you have… may be an exception. But I watched YouTube videos of many confused "content creators" showcasing their Amazon noname 20v blowers that usually go for $30-50. They all seem happy with them but my god those blowers are absolutely pathetic barely moving any leaves 3" in front of them. The owners seem happy thinking they got a good deal. They could probably move more leaves with a hairdryer.
The Kobalt just freaking lifts up everything within 6ft radius high into the air.
For a lowly 40v 120mph that's pretty good. This is why this is such a smoking deal.
This thing has probably 200x the power of Amazon noname blowers for only 2x the price

And it has a 5yr warranty. Amazon junk has none at all

Grabbed one even though all my tools are Ridgid. Never seen any Ridgid leaf blower sale for cheap.
Got 10% off Lowes gift cards from Doordash as well.

If you are already in the Kobalt 40v line, this is a no-brainer. As others have said, you will want at least two 4ah batteries. I just bought my third (first two were @ $99 in Jan). Now everyone in the family can have one while i hold my beer and point!
