I haven't use them long enough to give an honest opinion, but today it was raining fairly heavy and the wiper blades worked great. no streaking, no chattering. They were very quiet. If I still feel the same way in about six months I will put them on all my vehicles and will be happy with Wal-marts "bottem feeders"

And sometimes the "cheaper" product works just as well as the more expensive one - but some cars are finicky about certain things. I put on a set of Costco's Goodyear blades on a old beater my parents had and they worked as well as the nicer Bosch Micro Edges and OEM blades but much cheaper at $5/blade.
I use OEM or Valeo from Amazon for blades. I never had luck with Trico and Bosch is overpriced - there used to be a time when Bosch made their wiper blades in Belgium and they were worth the premium.
