Streakless in Seattle4
These installed very easily. They seem very secure. They wipe without any streaks which I think is the result of the "1500 pressure points" they proudly advertise. I'll wait to see how they hold up with ice on the windshield and overall durability. I have a feeling consumer reports had it right though that really the most important thing is to change them (or any wiper brand) every 6 months for the best results. The sizing recommendation for my acura tl was correct.

Best windshield wipers I've ever had!5
The installation literally took 60 seconds. I had no idea what size to buy, but the Amazon product selector showed me exactly what I needed. Though I have not yet used them in snow, I can say they perform wonderfully in rain, light or heavy. I installed them right before a trip and went through rain and heavy mist. It did such a good job, my windshield looked invisible. No streaking, no awful noises. Great!

Valeo blades = excellent5
I picked these up for my old Acura Integra, I had another style of Valeo blades on my Audi and thought what the heck I loved those so maybe these will be just as good. I wasn't disappointed, the blades installed easily and worked without flaw in a very heavy rare downpour. Quiet, no streaks and a great deal, what more can you ask for? Just be careful to follow the instructions and install these properly. I noticed that when I first installed I missed "locking" one of the blades down so it came off as I was testing in the garage.
