but they are absolutely great and last more than 10
I was looking for replacement wipers for my GLK 350. Original equipment (OEM) wiper blades from Mercedes usually cost about $50 minimum, but they are absolutely great and last more than 10,000 miles. However, when I found out that Bosch makes them, I started buying the less expensive Bosch brand wipers. With that said, I decided to take a chance on the SilBlade wipers because I was sick and tired of buying either (1) poor quality wipers (don't make a clean streak) or (2) wipers that do not last (<1000 miles or start skipping soon after purchase). We have cold winters in the Northeast with occasional rain and snow. If the weather doesn't wear out the wipers, the cold temperatures wear out the rubber. Aside from OEM, I have tried Rain-X, Bosch, and Trico Neoform (aka Napa). Most of the GLK owners swear by Trico, but I have gone through about 3-4 pairs of their brand. It is my experience that the Trico wipers are cheaply made (you get what you pay for, since they are inexpensive), do not leave a clean streak, and start skipping after the temperature drops. I was using Rain-X, which are of average quality and cost. They do last about 10,000 miles and then start to show signs of wear. I have had mixed experiences with non-OEM Bosch blades, but they do not fit on my car's side pin holders snug.I have had the SilBlades for several hundred miles so far. On initial inspection, they are of above average quality. They are uniquely designed with a rubber of different texture. Their universal design fit my car's side pin holders snug, but most importantly, the curved design perfectly matched the contour of the window - leaving a clean streak without skipping or noise. So far, I am impressed. They cost the same as Rain-X and Bosch wipers, and I recommend them to the European car owners.

Does not fit correctly
They do not latch correctly. Silblade in name only. Lasted only 6 months before one came off while going down the highway.

Good wipers, good fit on Nissan Titan/Armada
--FitThese are the correct size blades for a 2005 Nissan Titan. Even though Amazon's recommendation reflects differently.Sit snugly against the windshield itself.--InstallationEasy, pull the old blades off, these easily slid on existing U type wiper frame with no additional adapters necessary.--Use in rainWorks as a wiper should. Easily shears water away and out of sight. Used heavily during Monsoon season in the recent months.--Quality/LongevityMaybe the most important aspect when considering paying a little more for wipers. These blades have a very slick and interesting design. 2 months of use and they are still in excellent shape. Only time will tell how effectively they stand up against the Arizona heat and sun.--Final ThoughtsEasy to endorse purchase, these are great blades so far and they appear to be on track for lasting at least a couple years. With any blades I suggest using a rubber type cleaning product such as a tire cleaning spray or gel to ensure you get the longest life out of the wipers and to minimize streaks during their use, cheers.

Nice at first very smooth, not classic Silblades Silicon, wobbles now.
Really great wipers at first. Very smooth operators. I actually loved the style, that the adaptors are more flush and don't sit on top of the blade like my previous ones.However now (4 months later, and maybe a dozen rain storms used) they are wobbling and there's no way to tighten the arm. it's installed correctly... the rubber is still.good and streak free.. but that wobble is going to drive me crazy. Wish my wiper arm could use the classic beam Silblades with silicon blades... those things lasted years and years...

An Inexpensive Five Star Wiper Blade!
This windshield wiper blade set seems to be slightly slimmer than the standard ones.+ Installation is very easy+ Love its rubbery feel that hugs the windshield. It wipes the windshield very clean and almost silently!+ So far, it works very well in rain and light snow, and I expect it works quite well in heavy snow as well.+ I bought this set to replace a Auto Zone brand wipe that made terrible squeaky sounds, which drove the whole family crazy. During any rainy or snowy condition, the SilBlade worked beautifully and kept the cabin quiet, no more complains from the family.- The only small thing I can pick on is that the tabs/clips that you have to press down to install these blades are a bit on the filmy side. You want to be careful not to press too hard during installation.An inexpensive yet excellent wiper blade. A five star!
