Customer Rating: Summary: NO better than any other blade Comment: Other than costing a fortune, I found no difference in this very expensive set of blades than the cheaper ones. Mine are a year old and I have to blast the radio to drown out the rubbing noise. THey leave streaks in the same places the cheaper blades left streaks. The only thing that impressed me was the nerve it took to charge this amount of money for these blades.
Sorry, but I calls 'em as I sees 'em.
Customer Rating: Summary: New era for wipers. Comment: Very sleek and clean design for a wiper blade. cleans window quite well, And looks nice on the car, not bulky and metal like the older wipers. Customer Rating: Summary: Blades work grreat. Comment: Not much exciting here. I installed this wiper blade and it's match (419A & 419B) on my car. They work great. Although these blades are a little bit more expensive than typical wiper blades. Customer Rating: Summary: does a poor job Comment: This size wiper is for the drivers side of my Ion. It came out of the box with quite a curve on it (concave) and after installation, it leaves most of the middle of its wipe area untouched. I originally saw an add for this type wiper in a magazine and thought it would be great, and was willing to spend the extra$ for a really good wiper, but its very disappointing. The passenger side wiper seems to work ok though. Customer Rating: Summary: Best wiper blades around Comment: I needed new wiper blades for my VW and did a bunch of research. Just about every person or place I looked for an answer at recommended these blades or the PIAA super silicones. I went with the bosch just because I have a german car and use bosch parts already. I am glad I did, these are by far the best wiper blades I have ever seen. They do a fantastic job and leave no streaks. The best part is that they make zero noise, even on dry glass. I always had issues where there was not enough rain to keep the glass wet at the slowest interval setting and once it was too dry the blades squeaked. I had to turn the wipers on and off as needed (what a pain). These are so quit you don't even notice them working.
Amazon had these blades at the lowest price, so if you can wait to get them in the mail, buy them here and not at the store, you will save a good chunk of change. These blades are more money than the cheapo blades but it is worth double the price I paid easy.
As a side note, I have seen rain-x advertising similar blades for less money. Apparently they decided to steal bosch's new design, so perhaps you may want to look into the rain-x ones a s a cheaper alternative.
