Not Great on All vehicles or seasons3
I, too, bought these wipers when they were buy one get from free, I bought a couple sets, both for compact cars, specifically a 2001 honda civic and a 96 hyundai accent. I bought the proper sizes and they fit well and look sleek, the problem I found (at least on these compact car windshields) is that without the bracket, this wiper cannot form as well to the curvature of a compact vehicle windshield, causing it to miss a section in the middle or out at the end. I have witnessed similar wipers preform well on truck windshields, so I was disappointed with my purchase. I live Maine and it is very cold right now, maybe these will make great summer wipers (so I hope) if they flex better in the summer temperatures. They certainly won't be working in the winter (despite the all season advertisement). I had to go buy some Anco winter blades, which work Great! I'm not sure if my problem with with the style wiper or if it can be attributed to the brand, maybe rain-x would have performed better. But, this is all what I have found, I hope this review at least somewhat helpful!

Great little investment5
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.

Used on driver's side5
This blade is being used on the driver's side front windshield. It installed much easier than 'regular' blades I've used before-no pulling, pushing, and wiggling to get it to fully snap into the wiper arm. It contacts the glass all along the blade as it should and does a very good job of cleaning water off very quickly. I'll have to wait to see how it handles snow, ice and slush.
