I just replaced the wipers blades on my ‘22 Forester (non Wilderness). I installed the Bosch. Blades from AutoZone on the front but had to use a cheaper blade on the rear. The front ones are amazing though.

Pros: front ones are amazing

Cons: rear blade not clean

Vehicle: Subaru Forester

Bosch. They’re expensive. And they’re gotten much pre expensive, but, instead of replacing them every 6-12 months, they last for YEARS.

Pros: last for years

Cons: they're expensive

Bosch icon. The only size that has the correct adapter area the 18oe and 26oe, avail at Amazon.

Note that most non-subaru wipers will look bulkier than the stock ones and partly block the washer fluid stream on the passenger side - but only for the split second before the wipers actually move. Then it's totally fine.

Overall, much better than the stock wipers

Pros: much better than stock, correct adapter area

Cons: look bulkier, temporary fluid block

Vehicle: Subaru Outback

Just replaced the blades on my 2024 Niro after 7900 miles. OEMs were terrible. Got Bosch blades at my local auto parts store. Drivers side is 26, passenger is 16. Night and day difference.

Pros: significant improvement

Vehicle: Kia

Mileage: 12714 km
