Wiper blades Trico or ANCO

One of our vehicles has had Trico Ultras since Jan 2023 and are still holding strong.

I prefer any of the Trico wippers as they come with rubber boots across the whole wiper preventing snow and ice buildup during the winter months.

Trico! I like the Trico Ice so much I run them in the summer lol.

My personal preference is Trico Flex or Ultra btw. Trico makes nice blades that don’t make any noise and they last me years. I have a set going 4 years, another set going 2-3 years.

I use Rock Auto and typically buy Anco Contour. High quality and long lasting at a great price.

replaced mine after 6 months with a pair of bosch and those failed again after 6 months (streaks + stutters). Now I have some Trico Silicone Ceramic and they are perfect. I had them for the last 9 months. Lets see how winter will damage them.

I've been buying Anco Contours recently. They're dirt cheap on Rock Auto and perform well. I used to change out the "standard" ones i used 2x a year, the Contours are lasting over a year so far.

I average about 3+ years out of a set of blades, in one of the snowiest parts of the US. Trico Onyx is my go-to.

I replaced them with some expensive Trico Onyx, and those didn't wipe well. Right into the trash they went. Replaced them with some less expensive Trico Flex and they're amazing.

The problem is that Anco wiper blades are 100% cheap junk that doesn't give you the required adapters to attach the wiper to the car. It's absolutely asinine that there is no adapter included. You can't buy the adapter separately either, so I don't know what you are supposed to do with these. I would return them if possible.
