Customer Reviews

A let down from a great manufacturer
Bosch has always done right by me in the car parts field, I buy Bosch when OEM is not available. Wipers I try to do right, I can spend a little more and feel good doing it when I can see out my windsheild. This is the first of Bosch's wipers to let me down, they didn't last long at all, they needed to be replaced in well less than a year, and that's with very little use. I'll stick with the basic Bosch wipers or PIAA next time.

The only upside, these are lookers! All my car-guy buddies love the euro look, but in the end, when safety is concerned, it's not worth it.

Made in China - Lasted 5 months
I bought a pair in April, one of the blades tore in September. Very light use. An auto parts store manager said, "When production switched from Belgium to China, the quality dropped a lot". I'll try Rain-X this time.

Best wiper blades around
I needed new wiper blades for my VW and did a bunch of research. Just about every person or place I looked for an answer at recommended these blades or the PIAA super silicones. I went with the bosch just because I have a german car and use bosch parts already. I am glad I did, these are by far the best wiper blades I have ever seen. They do a fantastic job and leave no streaks. The best part is that they make zero noise, even on dry glass. I always had issues where there was not enough rain to keep the glass wet at the slowest interval setting and once it was too dry the blades squeaked. I had to turn the wipers on and off as needed (what a pain). These are so quit you don't even notice them working.
Amazon had these blades at the lowest price, so if you can wait to get them in the mail, buy them here and not at the store, you will save a good chunk of change. These blades are more money than the cheapo blades but it is worth double the price I paid easy.

As a side note, I have seen rain-x advertising similar blades for less money. Apparently they decided to steal bosch's new design, so perhaps you may want to look into the rain-x ones a s a cheaper alternative.
