Switching to single beam wipers helped from the crappy oem segmented frame ones.

I had blades replaced under warranty today and the usdm Subaru blades are not even close to the same. The they are taller and wider. I went back and asked for my old blades back i hate the replacement ones that much
3 years huh? I think I have my factory-original wipers on a 16 year old Subaru. Might be different environments and usage patterns but isn't this the sort of thing you don't replace if they're still working perfectly?
We just replaced the wipers on our 2020 Subaru Outback today - they lasted 4 year!. If you have a Subaru, I highly recommend Subaru wipers. The ones we replaced were still clearing the windshield, but in Virginia they have "safety" inspections and if there's even the tiniest little tear they fail the car. So we replaced them. But they still had life left in them.
I don't own a Subaru anymore but I had a Forrester for about five years and I never found offbrand replacements that really worked… I ended up going to my dealer and buying the replacements there… They were expensive but they always seem to work right…
After years of trying to remedy my poor wipers on my XV I swapped to single peice after market assembly and have never looked back.
The windscreen wipes smear free.
I only ever used Subaru blades on my 2011, for 10 years in Upstate, NY, winters. My 21 is on the second set of OE blades (installed under warranty) and they're also good quality. As others said - they're a competitive price and good quality so I see no reason to use something else.
I just buy the OEM blades from Subaru. They seem to be good quality and the price is comparable to a higher end Trico blade I would normally buy anyways.
I just go to the Subaru dealership to get OEM blades. They're pretty good for the price !
I might be the only idiot who uses the dealer Subaru OEM blades. They are guaranteed for a year and I walk back in at month 11.5 and am usually able to get the dealership to warranty replace.
