here I am 3+ years later and still rocking the factory wiper blades. Chicago area, so it has seen winter months with ice/snow.
Owner reviews for wiper blades
If you can find the Bosch Aerotwin for your model, they're fantastic and far better than the Volvo blades. I dealt with the streaking for a couple years until I switched.
Michelins are $8 each at Costco…. They last about 18-24 months on my three vehicles.
I bought OEM Toyota wipers so I can just replace the inserts now. Most surprising thing is the OEM wipers absolutely beat any aftermarket I’ve tried, and I’ve tried them all. I think it’s just got better pressure across the windshield.
I've been buying Bosch Icon blades pretty much for the last 10 years, and I think they crept up about $6 a set in the last couple of years. Typical set of those runs me about $50 now, but they last a full year, and work flawlessly.
I get the cheapest ones from oreilly for about $3 wholesale and they work great. Trico brand
I like the Rain-X ones on the front. I usually get two winters out of them instead of just one.
I’m running Bosch Icon Envision and they’re alright.
I changed the wiper blades from there last week and was not impressed either. He took off the old wiper and immediately put it into the new one's empty box. Fiddled with the new wiper, said it's not fitting and took both the old and new inside to get replacement.
I mistakenly bough Bosch Direct Connect. They were so complicated I ended up putting them back in the box and got Bosch *icons* I think it is in my outback. Way easier. And a whole lot less stress
