Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)In reading the description of these blades you'd think they were "all that and a bag of chips"..."a revolution in wiper blade technology"...in fact on the box it says, "it's time to upgrade your blade". Well, I put 'em on last night, and really find them to be only average in their effectiveness. The last set I bought from Amazon, some Bosch Evolutions, were better blades but didn't last very long. These blades streaked and smeared until the defroster warmed the windshield up and then they were about as good as a typical wiper blade. They also have the annoying "feature" (on my 93 Accord) of keeping a pool of windshield wash under the blade when retracted after washing the windshield so it keeps trickling up onto the windshield for a while after turning the wipers off. I don't know how they come up with these 1,500 "pressure points" or whatever they claim; all I know is they don't work any better or worse than your average wiper blade, at least on my car. And they seem pretty thin as well.
At the price I paid for them I don't feel "ripped off" but I certainly don't feel like I got anything special or any better than I could have picked up at Wal-mart for about the same price.
