Lowe’s-Branded Tool Combats Heavy Snow with Brushless Motor and Dual Batteries
As winter approaches, Kobalt’s 80V Snow Blower (KSB 4280-06) emerges as a strong contender in the single-stage snow removal market. The model, sold exclusively at Lowe’s, features a brushless motor and dual 80V batteries (4.0Ah + 2.0Ah), providing extended runtime and reliable performance in harsh conditions.
With a 22-inch clearing width and the ability to handle snow depths up to 12 inches, the KSB 4280-06 throws snow up to 30 feet, making it suitable for driveways and walkways. The 180-degree adjustable chute allows for precise snow placement, while LED headlights and a battery life display improve visibility during early-morning or nighttime use.
Weighing 57 pounds, the unit is manually propelled but benefits from 8-inch rear wheels for easier maneuvering. Priced at $649, the kit includes both batteries and a charger, backed by Kobalt’s 5-year limited warranty.
While lacking a self-propelled drive, the snow blower’s rubber auger prevents surface damage—a key advantage for paved areas. For homeowners seeking a cordless, mid-range snow blower, the Kobalt 80V model presents a compelling balance of power and value.
