 Good wipers October 30, 2008

I live in rainy Northern California, where the wipers not only have to stand up to lots of rain, but mold can be a problem too. My Stock wipers were no good after only one rainy season, so I replaced them with Rain-x Latitude wipers. They do a great job. You can tell they make full contact across their entire length, so there are no streaks. They are even able to wipe off the thin mist than can form on the outside of the windshield when it is cold. I've had them for 9 months now and they have held up well and do not show any signs of mold either.
Best blades I've ever bought July 7, 2009

I bought my Subaru Outback in October '06, and as Subaru has warranty coverage for wiper blade replacement, I would use their service instead of buying new blades. Unfortunately for me, it seems the Subaru blades don't handle car washes very well, so if I took new blades into a car wash, cleaned them off thoroughly (no wax/soap/whatever left on the blade), they would streak in the next rain, without fail. I was lazy and didn't want to spend money I didn't have to.
A month ago my warranty expired and my blades were the equivalent of wet rags when it rained. I decided to spring for some non-standard blades so I jumped on the Rain-X Latitudes.
I couldn't be happier.
The first day I had them, it rained. My windshields were clear and devoid of streaks.
Installation was a breeze, though I found some of their instructions lacking in detail and the pictures also confusing. Rain-X could do some work there.
I have since washed my car and unlike the standard Subaru blades, these blades don't streak and continue to work just as well as when I received them. And with 12 of 15 days raining here in MD last month, they have gotten plenty of work out in the month+ I've had them.
Highly recommended.

I ordered the drivers side and the passenger side wipers from Amazon because no one had both of them. The price was fair, the shipping was immediate and if used with the Rain-X windshield treament you will never have a problem seeing the road.
Great wiper and it looks nice too. April 19, 2010

I put these Latitude wipers on both of our vehicles recently (2009 Ford Fusion and 2004 E350 - 15 Passenger Van). These wipers were very easy to install. The necessary mechanism was already connected, so it only required removing the old blades, and then sliding these onto the hooks. These wipers look impressive, as they have a wider body than many wipers, and the blade is centered which gives it a great look on your windshield.
We have had a couple of pretty hard rain events since I installed these, and they performed great. They move smoothly across the windshield, with no annoying sounds. I'm not an expert on windshield wipers, but my experience has been better so far with these, than with any other blade I have ever used. These blades do cost more than some of the other blades you can buy, but so far I think they are worth the purchase price.
I'm very happy, after about a month of using these on two vehicles.
