Silblade Uni UB124, Hybrid Silicone Wiper Blade 24" Review

Silblade Uni UB124, Hybrid Silicone Wiper Blade 24
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought these in both the necessary sizes for my wife's Acura CL and am absolutely and totally pleased with the outcome.
Having used the previous Silblade generation of wipers for my cars (had it on my 1995 Infiniti Q45), I continue to be pleased with this generation as well. The first set of Silblade wipers I tried lasted a number of years without requiring replacement - quite extraordinary!
These new wipers are super quiet and do not make a noise on the glass even when dry. The best at removing all traces of water from the glass - and they should only get better with time as the silicone deposits on the glass. They look like they are performing even better than the early model of Silblade I had used, but this may be faulty memory at work!
Regardless, please do buy these for your car - you will be incredibly happy with them!

Going on six months with no streaking or skipping. Holds up to the sun and dry rot. The rear blade on my Trailblazer would not mount correctly and ended up using just the blade on the the original hardware.

Bought these when they were buy one get one free as we needed new wiper blades and go threw them fairly quickly where we live. Have had these for over a month and although we have not had any major snow storms yet, they have worked great so far with the rain and snow it has had to push. They look a lot sleeker than the ones you normally buy and where a breeze to snap onto place.

Trico 21-200 Wiper Blade Review

Trico 21-200 Wiper Blade
Average Reviews:

They are cheap and they get water off the windshield.
I live in Florida and we get rain often and twice on both blades I have had to slide the wiper blade back into it's carrier. No big deal, they are too large to fly off unless you leave them unattended for too long. They slide out slowly so when it stops raining you just push them back in. Annoying but again, they are cheap and they do keep water off the windshield.

Anco N16R Narrow Refills - 6R" Review

Anco N16R Narrow Refills - 6R
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
With the rain season coming, I wanted to change out the wiper blades on our family cars. To my surprise, none of the local auto shops (Pep Boys, Auto Zone, Wal-Mart, etc.) had only blade refills. Instead of buying a $6 set of refills (usually 2 in a pack), they were FORCING us to buy an entire wiper blade and frame at $20 - $30 per! Outside of the waste of having to toss a good wiper frame away, this was crazy to spend 10X more or $60 per vehicle just for a the rubber refills.
I searched Amazon and they came to the rescue with the standby Anco blade refills. I have purchased a small stock pile to cover the four family vehicles, each Amco blade refill coming with two blades. All work outstanding and the total cost to maintain all of our family vehicles cost half than for doing only one car with what was offered locally. Save you money and buy the Anco blade refills, at least for 3 - 5 years worth before changing out the entire frame.

Anco N24R Narrow Refills - 4R" Review

Anco N24R Narrow Refills - 4R
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These blade refills work very well, having a metal clip on one end that locks into the windshield wiper arm bracket throughly. The rubber blade is secured to a plastic guide which in turn slides into the windshield wiper bracket. Be sure to get the right length, as the rubber blade is held to its plastic guide by indentations into the plastic at the end opposite the metal clip. Trimming off an overly long blade results in the rubber sliding out of it's plastic guide. The online selector tool states that these do not fit my 2002 and 1994 Camry sedans, which is incorrect. The default generic picture is also incorrect. It shows a blade with a bracket; these are rubber blade refills only, without a bracket to snap on to an arm.

AutoTex "PINK" - Black Bracketless Premium Wiper Blade - 24", Pack of 1 Review

AutoTex PINK - Black Bracketless Premium Wiper Blade - 24, Pack of 1
Average Reviews:

I replaced my "standard" driver-side wiper with this "bracketless" wiper about a month ago; just in time for a massive set of storms that moved through the DFW area. I have to say, I was fairly impressed. Though I was replacing older blades, I felt like this one did a solid job of wiping away the water without leaving streaks. It was relatively quiet while working and gave me a good view of the road. Basically, it did what it was supposed to do. That being said, there are some issues that I've encountered over the past month...
1. The blade works better at higher speeds, so wiping your windows after a bug hits them on a country road, or after you come out from work having parked under a tree, means performance is less impressive. The blades has little spoilers that are supposed to press it to the glass as air rushes over them, but if there's no air rushing over them, well...
2. The blade tips wobbles\ as it approaches vertical. I assume this is because the spoilers are catching the wind at an odd angle, but I found it somewhat distracting to see something wobbling out of the corner of my eye at the end of every vertical stroke.
3. After a month, streaks are starting to appear. Nothing major at all, but I would have expected "streakless-nes"s for much longer given the advertisement. I don't think it's any worse than normal blades, but it's not necessarily better. Perhaps the blade has some goop on it that needs wiping off? I'll have to look.
Overall, I like the looks of these blades and the performance when new. After a period of breaking in, however, I'm not convinced they're any better than your regular blades. No worse, of course, but no better either. I'm going to replace the passenger side with a new "standard" blade and try to report back in a month or so with a comparison.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased Valeo 500 24" along with an 18" and a 13" a few weeks ago they were a bargain and, I tried them out when we had tropical depression and it just rained 80% for the past few days, the blades smear water to a point it is a danger to see. I am sorry that I threw the boxes away or I would return them.
I threw the wiper blades out and purchased rain-x latitude at advanced auto parts store and I was amazed how they whisk away the water.
no more buying car parts online, you don't know what you get even if it is a cheap deal.
I'll stick with the items i know: electronics, books, home/garden/pets, movies/music, computers, clothing/jewelry.
oh well..., I tried and thought i was getting a bargain for the price.

Bosch 424A ICON Wiper Blade - 24" Review

Bosch 424A ICON Wiper Blade - 24
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
For more than 30 years, I've searched high and low for the perfect wiper blade. Being a little tiny bit obsessive about my car, one of the things I can NOT tolerate is a chattering, noisy, smeary, streaky wiper blade. Driving in the rain is hard enough without feeling like you're trying to look through a wax-paper windshield.
In the past, I'd put new wiper blades on my car two or three times a year and sometimes more, just to make sure I never had to deal with wiper smear or worse, wiper chatter. That sound is like fingernails on a blackboard to me!!
I'd also clean the rubber edge several times between blade changes, to keep the leading edge clean and free from debris and gooey tree gunk and junk. Due to my desire to keep the finest quality blades on the car, I'd only buy authentic Toyota blades for my 2003 Camry and then one day...
An associate at the local Toyota dealer talked me into buying the rubber inserts for the blades, rather than the whole blade assembly. For 20 minutes, I waited and watched as she fiddled around trying desperately to get the inserts into the arm assembly. Two days later (and 10 minutes of use later), while driving in a light rain storm, the whole thing came apart in pieces, scratching my windshield in the process. It was a Sunday afternoon (dealer was closed), so I drove directly to the auto parts store and told them I wanted the most expensive wiper-blade they sold. They took me to the Bosch Icon and said, "these are the best, but they're pricey."
I couldn't be more pleased with the quality and performance of this product. The two blades I bought for Cammie cost less than $50 which isn't THAT much contrasted against the frustration of not being able to see clearly through the windshield when it rains.
April 2008 UPDATE: I am on my second pair of Bosch Icons and I'm saddened to say that I am no longer "raving" about these things. While they're just swell for the first 60 days, they deteriorate quickly after that and become streaky and smeary. When I was buying wiper blades for my daughter's car, I asked the auto parts guy about the Bosch Icon. He replied, "I'm not that impressed with them either. They don't last long."

This appears to be a regular wiper blade with a rubber sleeve added over the spring arm mechanisims. Seems like it should keep water and snow out of the moving parts in the arm, and prevent freeze up. I'll know more at the end of the winter if it was successful or not.

I purchaed these wiper bladdes for a 1996 BMW 328is. The weather here is mostly sunny but we get a 2 - 3 months period of rain (no snow or frost). The blades fit tightly in the wiper arms of the car. The teflon does a great job of wiping the water and rain nicely even under heavy rain. The only improvement would be if they would come up with a wider blade to handle more water. Worth the price.

I selected this wiper for my 2005 Dodge Caravan rear wiper. Amazon said this fit my van. It is the right size and the wiper would probably work for the right vehicle but it does not make contact over the whole rear window on the dodge. The rear hatch has a curved glass and both ends of the wiper does not touch the glass.
