 Good until they fall apart. December 23, 2008
My wipers were starting to die so I decided to go all out and buy nice new ones for my car. Read lots of really good reviews so I decided to get these top of the line Bosch Icon wiper blades. I disregarded the poor reviews because of all the good ones out there. Bad mistake.
They worked wonderfully for about a month and then the drivers side started to streak. Not too long after the passengers side started to streak. Decided not to make a big deal out of it so I got the drivers side replaced and left the streaky passengers side. Worked again for about a week and while driving in a big rain storm the drivers side is streaking very poorly again. Just got both sides replaced again.
Whats bad is that these steak in really fine lines so they are really distracting.
When these die out I'll just get the cheapo inserts again. Maybe I just got bad batches but I'm not going to deal with these again.
 Great Blades December 8, 2008
These are the best blades! I have already changed my blades once and was not very happy with the manufacturer's replacements as they weren't very efficient and had to replaced every year. These blades have a much better profile and work much better than my previous blades. They also coat the windshield with a silicone that makes rain just glide off, making visiability much better.
 Good blade - cleans/clears fine August 30, 2008
Bought 2 blades. They work fine. Cleans the rain off, and keeps pretty tight to the windshield. Fine. They do what they are supposed to.
Not so Iconic May 12, 2008
I put these on my 05 F-150 a few months ago and about a week there after I drove 3 days from Texas to Virginia and one of those days I experienced an insane amount of rain non-stop for 12hrs. My driver side blade (420a) are ok in the lower and middle portions of the blade but streak very much at the top. The passenger side (420b) simply jusy streaks. I'm not sure what's so great about these wiper blades besides to locking mechanism but I think my OEM ones were honestly better. It sucks becuase this product got such good reviews and it's hard to believe out of all the good ones I'm the guy giving it a low rating. I will probably try the Rain-X ones next and just save these for a backup.
Why such box? May 9, 2008

Everything amazing with this blades (5 stars), shame on amazon to ship only one blade by box (0 stars), I bought 3 blades, 2 of 20" and one of 15" (read blade), they arrive in 3 gigantic boxes, where is the environmental compromise of Amazon? you can ship a bed in that 3 boxes!! what will be the next? a watch in a refrigerator sized box?.
At least they can put all the 3 blades in the same box, but 3 boxes...
