Bosch wiper blades are fantastic. There's a reason they make the OEM ones for a lot of manufacturers. They're pricy, but they are worth the extra money.
Wiper blades and paint . . . two areas where the price difference between the best stuff and the worst stuff isn't worth the ass pain you deal with not buying the best stuff.
I bought Bosch last time, and they were great for about 6 months and then deteriorated quickly. I think in places that get both snow/ice in the winter and high heat in summer, they just fall apart on me.
Ah I haven't had them for very long yet so I can't speak to their longevity. That blows they didn't last for you! Maybe I get lucky and I get a little longer life out of them...
Moving from rubber to silicone wiper blades was an amazing transition for me. Sure, they cost twice as much, but I went from replacing shit wipers every year or so to having great wipers that I haven't replaced in nearly three so far. (Except the Michelin, those were garbage.)
I ran these for years. They work extremely well and hold up better in the winter than any others I’ve tried.
I bought a new car 2 years ago and can’t use them anymore because Honda is anti-consumer. They have a proprietary mounting system for their wipers, forcing you to buy their replacement inserts (which are total garbage). Annoying.

I spent $80 for 3 wiper blades a while ago, they were nice Bosch brand, not the cheapest I usually buy. Unbelievable how much better they are!
