Owner reviews for wiper blades

Since buying my wife's 2004 Outback in 2012, I've always used Bosch Evolutions. Living in the PNW and the torrential downpours, one of the best blades I've used.

TRICO blades work well and I installed them in 2-minutes.

Just my opinion but as someone who has tried a number of wipers and fluid over the years, I feel the best stuff out there when it comes to fluid is the pre-mixed 20/10 brand green fluid and when it comes to wiper blades, Bosch Icon have proven to be the most reliable.

I've always like Bosch Icons

Last fall I got Bosch Icons based on recs here. It’s coming up on a year and they’re still great.

I've used Bosch ICONS for the past decade and will continue to use them.

I would definitely go with Trico, I’ve never had a problem with them on many other vehicles might be expensive, but they do last.

I use the same Trico blades on both my cars but my wife hates parking hers in the garage. Her blades definitely don't last as long, I've always blamed it on the sun cooking the rubber to oblivion.

The latest version released this past winter is complete garbage. I have two cars and I bought new wipers for both. I had to return one set because they left a 4 inch wide streak in the middle of the drivers side, and now about a month later they both leave streaks and smears on both cars. Tried cleaning the wipers and washing the glass and they still suck badly.

I just bought the Bosch icons for my elantra. I bought the right side a few months ago as that one needed to be replaced badly. And I knew the left one would need replacing very soon so I got one tonight. The right one went on no problem however the left one's cover won't stay locked down when I place the wiper on the windshield. It kept popping out of place. I could tell there was an issue as it didn't swivel very well like the right side does. When I took it off I could see a little plastic piece kept bending out of place.
