The OLD, OLD Kobalt line was the bees-knees. The last USA line that was just replaced was decent for the price. The current line is Taiwan made, and isn't bad.

The current Taiwan line isn't bad... They are decent tools, and will hold up fine for the average joe. The problem with the current line is the prices. The current line is priced like USA tools, but isn't... A lot of on par tools out there, for less. If you did buy them though, you won't really be disappointed by anything, but what you paid...

If you have something specific you were looking at, post up. I own a bunch of new, and old Kobalt stuff. I can give you a basic idea if it is any good, or point you to a better option...

Edit,

Almost forgot. A lot of Lowe's stores are still clearancing the USA Kobalt stuff. you're kinda at the end of the rope, but it is still worth looking. I've raided probably five Lowe's stores...
