Where the rubber meets the road Oct 19, 2007
By Rosemary Thornton
"Niece of Addie Hoyt Fargo (age 29)"
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."
These blades have been on my car for three months and I think I have found the perfect wiper blade. They're quiet, chatter-free and each swipe of the blade is more like a squeegee has just moved across the glass. Every now and then a little piece of debris gets under the blade, but two or three passes later, and we're back to clean swipes.
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.
I will never again buy another brand of wiper blade. The Bosch Icon wipes and swipes cleanly and perfectly each time. And above all, it's quiet! The only downside is that they are funny looking. But that's a small problem contrasted against the great joy of having a good quality wiper.

Best all season wiper blade Dec 27, 2010
By KMG1219 This is my second set of Bosch Icons and I also bought a set for wife's car this time. My first set lasted 3 years. These are great wipers for those who live where it snows and don't want to buy winter blades. These work great all year round and will last.

Delivers performance, as advertised Nov 27, 2010
By soonger I've used this product on a couple different applications (my previous car and my wife's current car) and this product works extremely well for all seasons These wiper blades are more expensive than your standard wiper blades but will last more than the suggested 6 month lifespan for automotive windshield wiper blades. Build quality is excellent -- lightweight and great fit & finish. Packaging is simple and installation is nearly fool-proof. Highly recommended.

No More Streaks Feb 02, 2010
By BartmanS4 These wipers are very easy to install, in fact easier to install than to remove the OEM wipers. They form fit nicely along their entire length providing streak free wiping. These also have a slight bevel to act as an air dam holding them securely to the windshield at higher speeds. I cannot comment on their longevity as I've only had then a few months.
Excellent Wiper Blades Feb 02, 2012
By Bob

I've used Bosch wiper blades and refills for many of my prior vehicles. When it was time for a replacement for my Infiniti G37, I chose them again. These are high quality wiper blades that are quiet and do not leave any streaks on your windshield. I highly recommend them!
